This letter was written by Dexter Jewett (1846-1913), the son of saddler Oliver Jewett (1805-1873) and Elizabeth Underwood Hubbard (b. 1809), of Chelsea, Suffolk County, Massachusetts. Dexter joined Co. G, 13th Maine in September 1864 and transferred to Co. H, 30th Maine in January 1865, mustering out in June. The Jewett's resided in the rear of 124 Pearl Street in Chelsea.
Dexter had two older brothers who also served in the war. George Oliver Jewett (1837-1929) was a corporal in the 1st Massachusetts. He later served as a sergeant in Co. D, 17th Massachusetts, and transferred to the Veteran Reserve Corps in February 1864 before mustering out in May 1865. William Mellow Jewett (1842-1900) joined Co. H, 1st Massachusetts as a private in May 1861, serving briefly before being discharged in July. He later enlisted in the one year 42nd Massachusetts becoming first sergeant of Co. H before mustering out in August 1863.
Addressed to Mrs. Elizabeth U. Jewett, 39 Walnut St, Chelsea, Mass.
I received your kind letter last night and was glad to see that you answer my letters so quick. I have written two letters to Lizzie but have had no answer to them yet but I will write one more and if I don't get an answer to that I shall not write again.
The capture of Jeff Davis is a big thing and I hope they will hang him as soon as they get him to Washington.
There is some talk of the 1st Brigade of our Division being ordered to Alexandria with sealed orders not to be opened till they get to Alexandria. Probably it is for them to go home. If it is, it will come our turn soon. I am going to have a picture of our Colonel, Lieut.-Colonel, Major and Adjutant and also part of our company and I will send them home as soon as I get them.
Last Friday we were reviewed by our old General Sheridan and you should have heard the cheers ring along the line for he is liked the most of any General by us for last summer this division was with him through all of the fights up in the Valley. He give us the name of being the best drilled regiment in the division.
We have now got new guns in our company for our old ones were almost unfit for service and we have now got some Springfield guns and you would take us for regulars instead [of] "booyaws" and countrymen.
I wrote a letter to George last Sunday. I suppose he has got it by this time. The man whose ground we are stopping on has entered a complaint that we have spoilt the ground and everything since we have been here but we can't help that. We must have somewhere to stop if it is on another man's property be it Secesh or Union.
I suppose that everything is the same as usual in Chelsea. I shall have to close now so goodbye for the present.
From your son, — Dexter Jewett, Co. H, 30 Maine Vols, Washington D. C.

On Monday, September 24, 2018, the Blavatnik Family Foundation hosted the fifth Blavatnik National Awards Ceremony at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. Over 200 guests attended the ceremony, including some of the country's most prominent figures in science, business, and philanthropy.
Dr. Marc Tessier-Lavigne, President of Stanford University and renowned neuroscientist, served as the Master of Ceremonies, and musicians from the Juilliard School Orchestra performed throughout the evening. The three 2018 Blavatnik National Laureates were presented with their medals by Len Blavatnik, the Founder and Chairman of Access Industries and the Blavatnik Family Foundation, and each gave a short presentation on their research.
Chemistry Laureate Neal K. Devaraj, PhD, of the University of California, San Diego, was honored for his transformative work on the synthesis of artificial cells and membranes, which has created an exciting new field of research that aims to bring greater understanding to the origins of life, a major goal in synthetic biology. "Neal is really a singularity in the world of chemical biology. It takes a lot of depth and insight into chemistry to be able to invent new chemical reactions, but at the same time he has depth as a biologist," commented Dr. Carolyn Bertozzi, Professor of Chemistry and Professor of Chemical & Systems Biology and Radiology at Stanford University, and Neal's mentor.
A distinguished jury selected these three National Laureates from 286 nominations submitted by 146 research institutions across 42 States.
Twenty-eight 2018 Blavatnik National Finalists were also honored during the evening. Dr. Tessier-Lavigne stated that 45% of this year's honorees were immigrants hailing from nine different countries. Since the Awards inception in 2007, 249 scientists and engineers from 44 countries across six continents have been recognized by the Blavatnik Awards. As a native of Canada, he remarked, "I feel a special bond with all of them as an immigrant myself." Dr. Tessier-Lavigne concluded the ceremony with a 'fireside chat' with the three Laureates, posing questions related to the future of their respective disciplines and the importance of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education.
Distinguished guests who attended the ceremony included 2001 Nobel Laureate Dr. Barry Sharpless of The Scripps Research Institute; 2006 Nobel Laureate Dr. Roger D. Kornberg of Stanford University; 2000 Nobel Laureate Dr. Eric Kandel of Columbia University; Dr. Andrew Hamilton, President of New York University; Dr. Lawrence S. Bacow, President of Harvard University; Dr. Eric Lander, Director and Founder of the Broad Institute; Dr. Bruce Stillman, President and CEO of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory; Prof. Nili Cohen, President of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities; Prof. Joseph KIafter, President of Tel Aviv University; Warner Music Group CEO, Steve Cooper; and Australian writer-director-producer Baz Luhrmann.

Vikings: Season One Blu-ray Review
Reviewed by Sean Ferguson
Vikings follows the adventures of the great hero Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel), a Viking chieftain seeking to fulfill his destiny as a conqueror, alongside his ambitious brother Rollo (Clive Standen) and loyal wife Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick). Throughout his quest, Ragnar faces a path of betrayals and temptations to protect his freedom, family, and life. When Ragnar teams up with his boat builder friend Floki (Gustaf Skarsgard) to craft a new generation of intrepid ships capable of conquering the rough northern seas, the stage is set for conflict. Journey to a thrilling ancient world in this epic new series about history's bravest and most brutally fearsome warriors...Vikings. Ragnar, a would-be Viking chieftain, longs to fulfill his destiny as an explorer and conqueror, alongside his ambitious brother Rollo and loyal wife Lagertha. But as Ragnar leads daring raids in distant realms across the ocean, treacherous forces in his Norse homeland conspire against him. Faced with shocking betrayals and the temptations of a mysterious seductress, Ragnar must wage war on the battlefield -- and within himself -- to protect his freedom, family and life.
Show (4 out of 5 stars)
Considering how much I love The History Channel, I'm not sure how I missed this show. I wasn't even aware that they had veered away from their usual historical ventures into original scripted fare with the exception of their very successful original mini-series "Hatfields and McCoys." So when I heard about this show, and how good it was, I knew I had to check it out and I'm glad I did since I wasn't that aware of Viking history. I don't know how accurate the history presented in this show actually is, but it feels authentic and realistic to me.
The central figure in "Vikings" is a young farmer named Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel) who is based on a real Viking, who was a chieftain but little else is known. Life in the viking community is ruled by Earl Haraldson (Gabriel Byrne), who rules with an iron fist despite making token gestures of democracy. Haraldson owns all of the ships and most of the wealth in their village so the others have to do what he wants which doesn't please Ragnar. Ragnar believes that the ships should sail west where it's rumored to have plenty of wealth for the taking and he publicly disagrees with Haraldson which doesn't endear himself to his Earl.
After being threatened by Haraldon, Ragnar decides to go west anyway and he uses his own money to have a new boat designed and built by his friend Floki (Gustaf Skarsgård). Ragnar secretly gathers a group of men to join his expedition including his brother Rollo (Clive Standen) (and later his shield maiden wife Lagertha) (Katheryn Winnick) and they make their first journey into uncharted territory only armed with two new navigational tools that Ragnar obtained from a wanderer. Against all odds, Ragnar and his men discover England and they take advantage of the element of surprise and slaughter a group of monks at a monastery. The vikings show no mercy to the priests and the few that survive the attack are taken back to Scandinavia as slaves, including a young priest named Athelstand (George Blagden).
Ragnar's success in England does not go unnoticed by Haraldson who's very aware of Ragnar's popularity and views him a threat to both his position and his authority. To put Ragnar in his place, Haraldon takes all of his spoils of war for himself, leaving each man only one item to pick from from their loot. Ragnar surprises Haraldson by picking the priest Athelstand as his prize to keep because he wants to learn more about England from his slave. The discovery of this new opportunity in the west puts Haraldson in a tough situation as if he ignores the chances for wealth, he will look bad in front of his people, but if he sanctions further raids against England, then he would be validating Ragnar's position which he opposed. That conflict will continue to grow and will end in bloodshed and destruction by the season's end.
"Vikings" is an interesting show that takes its time building up the characters and the world and it's unlike pretty much anything else on television which is a good thing. It does an excellent job recreating a lost world that really captures life as it was at that time and the scenery and settings in the show are incredible. Filmed in Ireland, the show brilliantly takes advantage of its surroundings and it's very impressive to see. The cast is also very good in their roles, especially the main players including Byrne, Fimmel, Standen,Winnick, and Blagden.
One of the great things about this cast is the fact that you can never tell what they're going to do next. All of them are predictable and being vikings, they may kiss you or they may lop your head off with an axe. Standen's character in particular is impossible to pinpoint, as he is a rapist who spares sick old men and a serial cheater and he may or may not betray his brother at every point. The show takes a very adult approach so don't be surprised at the gore, sex, and nudity. If you are looking for something different and enjoy shows set in the past, then this is an easy show to recommend. I'm looking forward to the next season as the finale left a lot of things up in the air.
Video (4 1/2 out of 5 stars)
The episodes span three discs and are presented here in 1080p with a 1.78:1 aspect ratio and each of them looks fantastic. Although the image has been deliberately desaturated to give it a historical air, the images look sharp and detailed. Colors in particular look vibrant, especially when the blood starts to splatter which it does often. The locations used in Ireland look beautiful here and this show has to be a calling card for other productions just based on what has been included in these episodes. The indoor scenes that are lit by candlelight look better than you'd think as the black levels are solid and dark. This is a fine presentation that fans will enjoy.
Audio (4 1/2 out of 5 stars)
"Viking's" DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix is also excellent and it really helps sell the viewing experience too. From the opening song "If I Had a Heart" by Fever Ray to the rest of the brooding score by Trevor Morris, you'll know that you're in for a treat. The sound effects sound realistic and their directionality is accurate. I especially liked hearing the sounds of the storm that plagued Ragnar's first voyage to England as well as the sounds of battle. The dialogue is also clean and intelligible and never drowned out by the music or the effects.
Extras (3 1/2 out of 5 stars)
I was happy to see extras included on this release because all of the other History Channel releases that I've reviewed didn't offer any kind of special features. Another bonus is the fact that all of these are in high definition.
Extended Versions: - Each episode contains the broadcast version of the show and an uncensored "extended" edition that contains more nudity, gore, and violence. I always prefer the intended edition that has it all.
Season Mode: This feature allows the viewer to stop the show at any point and be able to resume it later. It also allows you to swap discs and pick right up at the following episode which I really liked.
Commentary for "Rites of Passage" - An audio commentary featuring series creator and writer Michael Hirst and star Jessalyn Gilsig. Hirst talks about how the show came about and what he wanted to do with it while Gilsig talks about it from an actor's point of view.
Deleted Scenes - Three deleted scenes are included that were cut for time from the first episode.
Commentary for "All Change" - An audio commentary with Katheryn Winnick and Clive Standen who talk about playing Lagertha and Rollo respectively. Winnick goes into detail about the making of the show while Standen offers an interesting perspective about viking history.
Deleted Scenes - One deleted scene is included from episode eight.
A Warrior Society: Viking Culture and Law - Almost twenty-one minutes long, this featurette focuses on the viking society and their culture. We hear from experts who talk about how the historical aspects of the people influenced the show and society at large. Series creator Michael Hirst and members from the cast also offer their opinions too.
Birth of the Vikings - Michael Hirst and the main cast talk about the show and how they approach the characters and their motivations.
Forging the Viking Army: Warfare and Tactics - A little over seventeen minutes long, this featurette covers the massive training it takes to make the show look this realistic. We see plenty of footage from the fight rehearsals along with shots of the finished footage to show us how the final result looked. We hear from sword trainer Richard Ryan, stunt coordinator Mark Henson and some of the cast as well.
Interactive Blu-ray Exclusives - We get two bonus interactive learning opportunities with "The Armory of the Vikings" which gives us a breakdown on all of the weapons used in the show including a look at the cool viking boats. The other one is "Conquest and Discovery: Journeys of Vikings" which allows us to journey along a map to the various places the show goes. Both of these were interesting and well done and hosted by historian Dr. Jochen Burgtorf who share his knowledge with us. It's also nice that both of these features have a "play all" option.
Summary (4 1/2 out of 5 stars)
"Vikings" is a well made show whose uniqueness and attention to detail is impressive as is its effort to be as authentic as possible. The cast is fantastic and the locations are beautiful to look at which really looks great on Blu-ray. The video and audio quality are top notch and the extras are pretty good too. If you are looking for something a little different or want to escape to a different time and place, then you should check this out!

India vs England: Ravindra Jadeja's ODI career on redemption path after crucial performance
Sports Jigar Mehta Jan 24, 2017 11:04:42 IST
"He is one of those guys who will always make something happen on the field. When he comes on to bowl, he will probably get you the breakthrough or just control the run flow straightaway. He has made a huge impact on our ODI victories," Virat Kohli said about Ravindra Jadeja in 2013.
Back then, the Saurashtra all-rounder was riding the crest of a massive wave. He had been a crucial part of India's ODI setup since his debut in 2009 and was dominating the ODI bowling charts with a No 1 ranking. But soon it started going a bit downhill for him, especially in the limited overs. The Jadeja of old rarely showed up. The rhythm was lost. Jadeja the batsman went missing. Once a mainstay, he was now lost somewhere in oblivion. The struggle was palpable and the shoulder injury didn't help.
After the England series, it seems good times are back again for Jadeja in ODIs. Reuters
The true warrior that he is, Jadeja battled to get back his Test spot after 14 months and then made a strong statement against South Africa at home in 2015, emerging as the second-highest wicket-taker.
He carried that momentum into the home Test series against New Zealand in September-October last year. Still, doubts lingered around his limited-overs capability, especially in the ODIs. Before the England ODI series that concluded on Sunday, the last match he played in the 50-over format was a year ago, in Australia.
He lost his ODI place after the Bangladesh series in 2015 in which he averaged 76 with the ball. Then, on the Australia tour in 2016, he had a tough time and ended up with an average of 85.66 with just three wickets from five matches. The poor form continued in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
While any lingering doubts about his Test credenials were quashed after the home series against the Kiwis, his place in the ODI team was still in doubt. He could have made his comeback in the ODI series against New Zealand, but the board decided to rest him, along with Ravichandran Ashwin, owing to a gruelling Test schedule in the months to follow.
With just three ODIs slated before the 2017 Champions Trophy, the selectors named a full strength team for England ODI series. Jadeja earned a recall to the ODI squad after 12 months. Leg-spinner Amit Mishra had made the most of his opportunity, ending up as highest wicket-taker in the New Zealand series, but Jadeja had momentum on his side after another brilliant Test series against England and was given the nod by the selectors, though Mishra was also part of the team.
This was Jadeja's path to redemption. This was his time for ODI resurrection. He played a crucial role in India's ODI series win over England, and you knew Jadeja was back in business.
While humongous scores and exciting chases brought plaudits for the batsmen, Jadeja's performance with the ball against England seems to have slipped under the radar. In the first ODI at Pune, Jason Roy and Joe Root added 69 runs for the second wicket and it was looking all too easy for the duo, before Jadeja provided the much-needed breakthrough of the dangerous Roy. Astute change of length foxed the England opener who charged down the track and tried to adjust at the last minute but missed and was stumped.
One of England's biggest frailties was their batting in the middle overs and that was mainly because of the choke applied by Jadeja with his disciplined bowling. The England batsmen quite simply found the Saurashtra all-rounder difficult to get away. The visitors posted 350 and India chased down the total with 11 balls to spare. However, what stood out was that in a 706-run game, Jadeja ended with figures of 10-0-50-1 with 4.4 overs worth of dot balls. Ashwin went wicketless, while England's Adil Rashid was tonked for 50 from five and Moeen Ali returned an econony of 7.78.
Then, in the second ODI at Cuttack, Jadeja warmed up with a breezy 16 off eight balls as India posted a mammoth 381. And when it was India's turn to bowl, Jadeja was introduced in the 11th over, with Roy and Root looking good again. He applied the brakes on the scoring which in turn built up pressure and helped Ashwin scalp the wicket of Root.
Jadeja bowled non-stop for eight overs giving away just 39. Roy finally gave in to the pressure as he missed a dab off an arm ball from Jadeja which rattled his stumps. Ashwin reaped the benefits of Jadeja's discipline as he ended with three wickets. Jadeja bowled ten overs at a stretch and was bowled out by the 29th over.
England captain Eoin Morgan then went berserk and nearly pulled off a spectacular win. In a match where 747 runs were scored, Jadeja finished with figures of 10-0-45-1 with four overs worth of dot balls. Every other Indian bowler conceded over six runs an over.
"Jaddu is very, very economical in terms of what he bowls," said Ashwin – Jadeja's spin twin – after the match. "In terms of his line and length, he doesn't give too much away. That's what he always does. You can expect that kind of performance from him all through the day. That also gives me the allowance to go for the wickets now and then," he added.
In the third ODI at the Eden Gardens, openers Sam Billings and Roy had seen off a tricky period at the start of the innings and slowly accelerated to 97 from 17 overs. Kohli had tried Yuvraj Singh before Ashwin and Jadeja, but to no avail. Jadeja went for 11 in his first over which included a six by Roy.
India needed a wicket at this moment and the crisis man was again to their rescue as Jadeja sent Billings back to the hut in his second over and then had his man - the ominous looking Roy - in his next over. Jadeja bowled a skidder and rattled Roy's stumps again, which pegged England back after a solid start. While Hardik Pandya was the standout bowler with 3/49 from 10 overs, Jadeja had played a crucial role in restricting England to 321, ending with figures of 10-0-62-2, with two wickets.
On flat and bouncy pitches with minimal assistance for turn, Jadeja ended up as the second-highest wicket-taker for India, and had the second-best average of 39.25. What stood out was his immaculate control of length. He had the number of the in-form and dangerous Roy in all three ODIs.
In a series which saw 2,090 runs scored - the highest ever in an ODI series of three or fewer matches - with an average economy rate of 6.85, which is the second-worst in a bilateral series, Jadeja ended up as the most economical bowler at 5.23 runs an over. The only bowler with an economy rate under six. Jadeja on turning wickets can be a fire-breathing dragon while Jadeja on non-turning wickets can be a silent killer.
From being typecast as the debonair sidekick to Ashwin, Jadeja had transformed into the chief protagonist in the England series.
India's next 50-over assignment will be the Champions Trophy in England. This performance against England would have surely raised his stocks in the spin department. What instills more confidence in Jadeja is the fact that he is the second-highest wicket-taker for India (23 wickets) on English soil, with the third-best average of 20.85 (for bowlers who have bowled at least 100 overs). In the 2013 Champions Trophy, he was the highest wicket-taker with 12 wickets at 12.83. In conditions favourable for pacers, Jadeja will be a vital cog in India's wheel.
"A man remains the same, only his time changes," Jadeja said after making a comeback into the Test side two years ago. Well, good times are back again for Jadeja it seems.

So here it is, mid-January. Talent still is hard to find around the country. Candidates are ghosting when it comes to job interviews and even employees are just leaving their employer without notice.
But that's nationwide. What's this year's job outlook for Southern California? We put on our sleuthing hats to find out.
More of the same: an absolute candidate market (at least through the 2nd Q 2019).
No surprise there. According to the California EDD (scroll down to the link at "Short-Term Projections: Two-Years" and download the spreadsheet), employment in Orange County from 2nd Quarter 2017 to 2nd Quarter 2019 is projected to grow overall by 3.4 percent (interestingly, self-employment is projected to grow by 4.2 percent). Not every employment sector is going to grow (mining and oil/gas extraction, for example, is projected to fall by 8.5 percent overall), but most are growing. Manufacturing is to grow 1.8 percent; while software publishers are to grow a whopping 13 percent; auto equipment sales and leasing by 6 percent; professional and business services by 3 percent; advertising, PR and marketing by 3.4 percent; professional, scientific and technical services by 4 percent; office administrative services by 6.7 percent; and so on.
But that's statewide. And it's for mid-2017 through mid-2019. What about in Southern California and in just 2019?
We hear you. It's a bit trickier to find info/predictions for just Orange and Los Angeles counties, but here's what we found: we may experience an economic slowdown in late 2019.
Although the economy is currently operating at full employment and benefiting from the massive tax cut and spending increases, the economic stimulus coming from that combination will likely run out in 2020, and deficits it creates will linger for another decade.
In spite of concerns about the risk of a full-blown trade war with China, the forecast for the U.S. economy is one of growth, albeit slower growth. California remains one of the most prosperous states, with a strong market that is expected to continue to grow.
The total employment growth forecasts for 2018, 2019 and 2020 are 1.7 percent, 1.8 percent and 0.8 percent, respectively. Payrolls are expected to grow by 1.7 percent in 2018, by 1.8 percent in 2019, and by 0.8 percent in 2020. Real personal income growth is forecast to be 2.5 percent, 3.6 percent and 2.9 percent in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. California's average unemployment rate is expected to have its normal differential to the U.S. rate at 4.2 percent in 2020. Home building will accelerate to about 140,000 units per year by the end of the 2020 forecast.
Most job growth is in the Inland Empire.
So things look great for job seekers for at least the next six months and possibly throughout the entire year. After all, slower growth still is growth. But don't be complacent because often in business, slower growth often means….job cutbacks! And that means the unemployment rate will rise and jobs will be harder to come by.
Take note of your accomplishments and add them to your resume.
Work to add value to your employer (don't just "show up for work," do the minimum expected of you and then think that you're "valuable").
Never, ever become complacent. If you've never been laid off from a job before, if you're laid off next year or early in 2020, get ready for potential WEEKS of unemployment. It happens. And to talented, valuable workers. No one is immune.
That's why it's a good idea to have a Helpmates recruiter in your professional network. In fact, take a look at our current opportunities, and if one appeals to you, follow the directions to apply. You also can contact the branch office nearest you to register.

Cody Jinks to Perform at the State Fair of West Virginia
LEWISBURG, WV (02/04/2019) (readMedia)-- State Fair Officials are excited to announce that Cody Jinks will perform on Friday, August 9, at the 2019 State Fair of West Virginia! Tickets for this show will go on sale Friday, February 8, at 10 am.
"Cody Jinks is one of the most dynamic up-and-coming singers in the industry today," State Fair CEO Kelly Collins stated. "We are excited to be bringing him to the stage as one of the first announcements for the 2019 concert series. Stay tuned for more announcements in the coming weeks!"
Ticket prices and details on how to order can be found at www.statefairofwv.com. Tickets will only be available via Etix at http://statefairofwv.com/entertainment/ or by calling 1-800-514-ETIX (3849) Monday through Friday 9 am – 6 pm or Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tickets will not be sold at the State Fair Box Office until later in the spring.
Rolling Stone said it best about Cody Jinks: "Rule Changing Country Music"
With his smooth baritone and lonesome, dark-hued country songs, the Saving Country Music Album of the Year award winner is proving that Country Music empowered by credibility has made its way to the masses. This did not happen overnight for Jinks, who has spent the better part of the last 10 years playing numerous empty bar rooms to a never ending financial loss. "Yeah, I've been pretty good at losing money. Not the greatest feeling in the world to be gone from home for long stretches of time, only to walk in the door broke. But I never gave up. Never even had that thought."
His latest critically-acclaimed album I'm Not The Devil smashed his Personal Chart Records, Breaking Top 5 On Billboard Country And Independent Album Charts. Pandora called I'm Not The Devil "a gift from above for country fans of all stripes."
Get your tickets early, because Cody Jinks is selling out everywhere he goes.
The 10-day State Fair of West Virginia is celebrating 95 years with "Summer's Greatest Adventure", on August 8-17, 2019. The State Fair of West Virginia, with a $13.8 million dollar economic impact on the state of West Virginia, is a 501 © 3 non-profit corporation committed to the traditions of agriculture, family entertainment, and education.

NFT Predictions for 2022 – Here's What is Coming
By Mango Dogwood
23 December 2021, 12:00 GMT+0000
Updated by Nicole Buckler
NFT predictions for 2022 by artist Mango Dogwood are a glimpse into what is coming in the new year
Predictions include mass adoption, a fairer world for creators, and more global brands entering the fray
NFTs could be vastly better for artists and other creators

NFT predictions for 2022 by artist Mango Dogwood include mass adoption, a fairer world for creators, and more global brands entering the fray.
2020 and 2021 brought NFTs to the mainstream consciousness. With it came a large demographic of creative problem solvers. This space was previously inhabited by financially and technologically focused people in the blockchain space. There has been influx of artists, creators, builders, visionaries, innovators, and community leaders. This has rounded out the crypto ecosystem's capacity for development and its ability to communicate the power of these technologies to the rest of the world. NFTs are clearly the next step in crypto's redefining of the global economic model.
NFTs so far have been initially understood to mean 'art,' and 'collectibles.' But people are starting to recognize the capacity of these technologies to be used for so much more than just that. 2022 is the year that we'll see a massive and rapid expansion of what people think of when it comes to NFTs.
Music industry NFT predictions
2021 saw a great deal of interest in the realm of music. Most of these projects came in the form of art and collectibles releases from major artists. However, as time goes on, we're seeing a great increase in the number of offering from mainstream teams, labels, and creators. They recognize the potential of the NFT space to revolutionize the entire industry.
Historically, musicians have been used and abused by record labels. They take miniscule cuts of their own work and see nearly nothing in royalties. Many major players in the music industry are beginning to see the potential of NFTs. They have the power to give the power back to the artists.
2022 will surely see a great deal of new platforms and models for artists to maintain control of their intellectual property. There will also be new models for rewarding their fandom who act as the pillars of their success.
The evolution of gaming
The first 20 years of the millennium has been primarily defined by the internet and the various global economies that come from it. Gaming is a massive part of that ecosystem. YouTubers, streamers, and professional gamers are among the many lives defined by this ecosystem. They have jobs that we could not have possibly imagined a few decades ago.
Here, the NFT predictions are fun! The crypto ecosystem has already provided the roadmap to a Play-To-Earn model of gaming. It will continue to empower players. They will earn money, contribute to communities, and retake ownership of the time they spend in virtual environments in the coming years. They can earn living wages by playing the games they love. DeFi and NFTs (and the intersection of these two value sources) will be a major part of the architecture of this future.
The ubiquity of the Metaverse
Love it or hate it, Facebook's rebranding should be a clear sign to everyone in the crypto space and beyond. The future we are building here is inevitable. This is a huge signal from the mainstream world that the Metaverse is coming.
The tooling that the crypto ecosystem is building – Web 3.0, NFTs, DeFi – are essential and unavoidable tools. They will ensure that these Metaverse spaces are diverse and robust. And, focused deeply on financial empowerment, not extraction and exploitation.
The scaling of financial sovereignty
To continue that thought, I believe that 2022 will see a deepening and expansion of the tools that people can access. These tools will lead to financial freedom. They will also lower the barriers to entry for people from all around the world. NFT predictions of this type are always welcome!
There are advancements in the blockchain's underlying technology. These include proof of stake and the growing number of interoperable blockchains. So the 'ticket to ride' for folks in places such as El Salvador and other developing nations will become substantially lower. Crypto continues to improve upon its ability to incentivize inclusion and community growth.
A snowballing of adoption (big brands enter)
NFT predictions for 2022 must include the big corporates. Like Meta, many other major brands are recognizing the undeniable value of the crypto ecosystem. This is not only for their own profits, but for everyone. As I mentioned above, the primary question is 'how can we make it in everyone's best interest to participate?'
Adidas gains value from joining the fold and providing interactive spaces that reward everyone involved. Twitter builds tools to verify the authenticity and provide intellectual property support. Bored Apes take over nearly all the billboards in Time Square. Busta Rhymes speaks about NFTs revolutionizing the music industry at NFT NYC. Snoop Dog, Deadmau5, Post Malone, Taco Bell, Coca-Cola, Campbell's, Microsoft, Nike…
Just watch what happens in 2022.

19 Sep 2006 19 Sep '06
For a scientific space project I'm thinking about including an FCode interpreter into the onboard software. The target system is a Leon3 processor (Sparc-V8) in FPGA with serial port(s), spacewire and a few other interfaces. I'm able to compile & run bare C applications (gcc cross-compiler), so it seems to me that I don't need a real BIOS. Having some experience with Forth I would like to include a FORTH interpreter for - interactive hardware implementation & testing via the serial port - executing FORTH code (precompiled bytecode ?) via telecommands during flight. Ideally the complete FORTH system should be in the range of 32-40 kBytes... I'm completely new to OpenBios & FCode. Any suggestions are appreciated: - where to start - how to strip down the OpenBios code - etc. Thanks & regards, Rolf. -- ------------------------------------ Rolf Schroedter German Aerospace Center Institute of Planetary Research D-12489 Berlin, Rutherfordstrasse 2 Tel/Fax: (+49) (30) 67055-416/384 Email: Rolf.Schroedter(a)dlr.de

So you probably won't need SCSI or floppy drivers or any of the filesystems. These can be disabled by editing config/examples/cross-sparc32_config.xml. What kind of serial port is this, Zilog or PC (16550)?
Ideally the complete FORTH system should be in the range of 32-40 kBytes...
That can be difficult to achieve, currently the full build is 150k C code + 100k Forth. I don't know how much of the Forth is needed. Taking out unwanted drivers etc. could help a lot on C side, but down to 30-40k? _________________________________________________________________ Be seen and heard with Windows Live Messenger and Microsoft LifeCams http://clk.atdmt.com/MSN/go/msnnkwme0020000001msn/direct/01/?href=http://...

Thanks, I'll try to disable them.

None of the above, a special serial interface integrated into the processor. You can simply assume, that stdin/stdout are connected to the serial port at main() startup.

Really that large ? I don't have experience with 32-bit Forth'es. 16-Bit systems usually have a small footprint. Okay, I have a 64 KByte PROM, and I forgot that the code could be compressed, perhaps a FCode interpreter for ~64 kByte could do it...

Most Forth systems can be stripped to (much) less than 8kB, so 32kB is definitely achievable; it all depends on how much, and what, functionality you want. Rolf, since you said you can already run "bare" C code and you don't need a "BIOS", you're probably better off using a normal Forth system on your machine, and save yourself the work of stripping OpenBIOS until it is what you want.

For the development phase I would like to have a real Forth system, interpreting ascii source. For flight the number & size of telecommands is limited, therefore it would be nice to have bytecodes with a bytecode compiler/decompiler to be used on ground. That's why I'm thinking about FCode.

FCode isn't full-featured Forth though, it's more like a scripting-language subset. In particular, it doesn't have DOES> . FCode isn't much smaller than (compressed) source text either, btw. Segher

we were at ~12kb machine code for the C side of the forth system at one point. and after that, I think only drivers were added.
I did a quick test and disabled the drivers and filesystems, now we are at 72K: obj-sparc32/openbios-plain.elf: file format elf32-sparc Sections: Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn 0 .text 0000f578 ffd00000 ffd00000 00004000 2**14 CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, CODE 1 .rodata 0000179c ffd10000 ffd10000 00014000 2**3 CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, DATA 2 .data 000000b0 ffd12000 ffd12000 00016000 2**2 CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, DATA 3 .bss 0006b000 ffd13000 ffd13000 00017000 2**3 ALLOC Text and rodata can be merged and data segment can be set up manually. The interrupt vector table has alignment restriction of 16K which adds a lot of NOPs now, but most of that can be saved. So I think we are pretty close to 64K. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Does the size of 72 kB include the C runtime library ?
For the OpenBIOS, yes (subset of libc and libgcc). But not for the programs.
Tomorrow I'll try to manage cross-compilation under cygwin....

OpenBIOS does not do any bring-up, so it is basically exactly what you are looking for. As for the size issues, the 72k include all openfirmware compliance code, including the device interface, lots of glue code etc pp. The 6k mentioned here is the forth kernel, without any dictionary, ie. it is only the "command scheduler" and the primitives. You might want to look at this old stand-alone version of the openbios forth kernel: http://www.openbios.org/bin/kernel-1.1.tar.bz2 And plug the fcode evaluator directly on top of that.

Okay, I managed to cross-compile kernel-1.1. (Unfortunately the original kernel-1.1. built process does not support cross-platform builts, distinguishing between host and target): 1. Build the kernel & dictionary on my host system (cygwin) 2. Build the target kernel (Leon-Sparc) including the dictionary.h built in step 1. After starting openbios() I'm getting the error: panic: dictionary not valid. load_dictionary() returns -1; Could this have to do with endianess ? Some other ideas ?
And plug the fcode evaluator directly on top of that. You can probably end up with a 32k-48k system (uncompressed).

MobileIron: We're making history by making passwords history
Mobile doesn't just drive global enterprise; it occupies the center of our personal universe.
For those of us old enough to remember life before smartphones, can you imagine how you would do without them now? Many of us rely on our phones and mobile apps for just about everything — work, play, life. Given how fast mobile technology is evolving (the performance gains of 5G are just one example), it's clear that we're going to be living in a hyper-cloud-connected world for years to come.
It's a world where more and more of our most valuable data — personal, financial, and business — will be instantly available from any device, on any network. It's a reality that is extremely empowering — and also terrifying if this data falls into the wrong hands.
With the rapid evolution of mobile empowerment, why does mobile security still heavily rely on passwords, which are essentially from the Stone Age of Information Technology? According to Gartner, spending on information security and risk management is estimated to reach $174.5 billion by 2022, and yet two-thirds of enterprises are breached every year.
Surely we can do better than this. It's time for mobile security to make an evolutionary leap beyond password-based authentication.
Today, with the announcement of our zero sign-on solution, MobileIron is paving a new path forward for enterprise security. One that's based on the industry's first mobile-centric, zero trust security framework. It doesn't just eliminate passwords, it goes beyond identity and gateway-based security approaches to give you complete control over all of your business data as it flows across devices, apps, networks, and cloud services. This means you can grant or deny access to your data based on a full range of security attributes.
More importantly, it means you're no longer at the mercy of compromised passwords or incomplete security solutions.
With MobileIron, your device becomes your ID and secure access to the enterprise. This allows your users to access any app or service from any location or device. All without the hassle and security vulnerabilities of passwords. Because with zero sign-on from MobileIron, passwords are history.
Find out how MobileIron is continuing to make history. Learn more about our new vision for mobile enterprise security here.

Deepika Padukone joins students at JNU during protest
By shameen| Updated: 7th January 2020 11:48 pm IST
New Delhi: Actor Deepika Padukone on Tuesday joined students protesting against the recent violence on the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus.
The Bollywood actor was seen standing with students as the demonstrators raised the slogan of "Jai Bhim-Jai Bhim". She did not issue any statement nor address the students.
More than 30 students were taken to the AIIMS Trauma Centre after a masked mob entered the JNU and attacked the students and professors with sticks and rods.
Several Bollywood celebrities have condemned the violence which took place in JNU on Sunday.
Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap and lyricist Vishal Dadlani joined the protests organised by students at the Gateway of India, Mumbai against the violence in Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus on January 5.

While Kashyap said that he was there at the protest site to show his solidarity with the students and blamed the government for the attacks in JNU campus, Dadlani said that he was there in support of a secular India.

While I spent much of that week concerned about what the storm would bring, I am now reflecting on how grateful I am to have had the means to evacuate and protect my family. In fact, there are many things for which I am grateful, but too often we seem to forget them or lose focus on the important things in life. Instead, we concentrate on the short-term. We become consumed by this task or that worry, and we lose sight of all that we have and all for which we should be so thankful.
One of the things I am committing to focusing on in the future is taking more time for gratitude. All too often, we are shaken into a place of gratitude when circumstances suddenly become daunting or we become worried by a worst-case scenario that turns out to be not quite as bad as we had originally anticipated. Then, we start to feel grateful for everything and everyone we have in our lives. However, this should be something that we reflect on constantly.
One of the best ways to do to this is by writing in a gratitude journal. Simply keep a notebook or journal that is specifically for your gratitude entries; do not use a general purpose notebook. Every night before you go to bed, write an entry in your gratitude journal that includes three things for which you are grateful for or three good things that happened to you throughout the course of your day. You don't have to write a novel, but be descriptive. Don't simply note what you are grateful for, but why you are grateful. Ask yourself these questions to dive deeper into what these elements bring to your life. Is it joy, humor, peace, light, love? Reflect on it and write in your journal.
Like with any habit, the key to making gratitude a natural part of your everyday life is through consistency. Commit to creating your journal entries each night. Over time, you will see quite a range of all the wonderful things, people, and events in your life. When you're having a bad day, you can go back to your journal and remind yourself of everything for which you have to be thankful.
When we take more time for gratitude, we achieve a strong focus on what is truly important in our lives. It also makes us more empathetic to those in need.

Flowers in shades of coral, peach and white created a fresh summertime setting for an outdoor wedding at Glen Oak in Amherst, NY.
The bride carried a mostly white bouquet with a touch of coral, and the bridesmaids carried predominately peach bouquets with accents of white, green and coral.
The sweetheart table was graced by an impressive arrangement including hydrangea, roses, snapdragons and bells of Ireland accented by greenery.
Two large arrangements in shades of coral and peach with a touch of green and white set on each side of the gazebo posts with the golf course in the background. Outdoor Weddings in Buffalo are beautiful, and this bride was particularly fortunate to h ave blue skies with a lovely view of Glen Oak Golf Course.


Battlefield 5 is currently between Closed Alphas as the game's release date draws nearer. However, according to market analysts; Battlefield 5 pre-order sales are actually "weak" while rival titles currently available for pre-order are outperforming it. Battlefield sales are historically strong, but Battlefield 5 may end up being an exception to the rule.
The reports concerning Battlefield 5 pre-order sales come from Cowen, a market analyst group. The news was Tweeted online by Sarah Needleman; a writer for the Wall Street Journal.
The report suggests that, while Battlefield and Call of Duty games often launch alongside each other, the addition of Red Dead Redemption 2 to the release window has changed the norm. Both the upcoming Call of Duty and Red Dead Redemption 2 "are showing greater pre-order demand," than Battlefield 5. The report worryingly compares Battlefield 5 to Titanfall 2. That title received high ratings from reviewers, but performed extremely poorly in sales. The game came out alongside other bigger titles which greatly outsold it; ironically, it was itself outsold by Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Battlefield 1. This year, Battlefield may find itself in the same position thanks to Rockstar's long-anticipated and upcoming title.

Edelman, Castro, Fernández Suárez, Malpica to speak at IDEA² Global
We're delighted to announce four internationally recognized innovators will address the teams and guests gathered at the awards ceremony this month, Dr Elazer Edelman, Isaac Castro, and Dr Marta Fernández Suárez. They will speak on a panel to be moderated by MIT linQ faculty member Dr Norberto Malpica.
Elazer Edelman, MD, PhD
Dr. Elazer Edelman, is the Thomas D. and Virginia W. Cabot Professor of Health Sciences and Technology at MIT, Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, and a coronary care unit cardiologist at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. He and his laboratory have pioneered basic findings in vascular biology and the development and assessment of biotechnology. Dr. Edelman directs the Harvard-MIT Biomedical Engineering Center (BMEC), dedicated to applying the rigors of the physical sciences to elucidate fundamental biologic processes and mechanisms of disease. BMEC programs span a wide range of disciplines, with its resources made available to investigators from MIT and Harvard.
Dr. Edelman's research melds his clinical and medical training and interests, focusing on understanding how tissue architecture and biochemical regulation contribute to local growth control.The applied aspects of his work flow from the umbrella of growth modulation. He reasoned that the optimal way to control a biologic event was by recapitulating natural means of regulation. Hence, polymeric controlled drug delivery systems should mimic natural release systems, and vascular implants should be devised with an intimate knowledge of the injury they induce. The development and mathematical characterization of perivascular and stent-based drug delivery is an example of the former, and design of an endovascular stent from first principles is an example of the latter.
Edelman holds a diploma from, and is a fellow of, the American College of Cardiology, the American Heart Association, the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering, and the American Society for Clinical Investigation. He is also a fellow of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Science, the National Academy of Engineering and the National Academy of Inventors. As Chief Scientific Advisor of Science: Translational Medicine he has set the tone for the national debate on translational research and innovation.
MSc in Telecommunications Engineering; Graduate Studies Program on Exponential Technologies, Singularity University, NASA Research Park in Silicon Valley. Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, Emerge, a company that develops a new form of communication by digitizing our sense of touch. Working to foster a sense of connectedness when it is impossible to physically be present in today's globalized, over-connected world, and striving to address human disconnection and its consequences in mental health and our ageing population. Moonshot: develop wireless brain-to-brain communication that connects individuals through all of the senses. 2015, selected to join the first MIT Innovators Under 35 Summit at European Parliament.

Rio Grande Valley Vipers release 2021-22 G League schedule
Delcia Lopez/The Monitor via AP
September 18, 2021 10:08 am CT
For the first time since the NBA's 2019-20 league year, the G League will play a normal season in the upcoming 2021-22 campaign.
While the G League existed in 2020-21, it was an abbreviated season at a "bubble" complex in Florida due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Not all teams participated. But in 2021-22, the full league is back, and teams will play in their normal home arenas and markets, as well.
For the Rockets, this means that their G League affiliate — the Rio Grande Valley Vipers (RGV) in Edinburg, Texas — will have a complete suite of games to showcase potential Houston players. This year also represents RGV's 15-year anniversary as a part of the G League.
Since the Vipers are owned by the Rockets, the systems are optimized to be as compatible with the parent club's needs as possible. Early in the 2021-22 season, it appears quite possible that Rio Grande Valley could become the training ground for recently drafted first-round prospects like Josh Christopher and Usman Garuba.
See below for a press release from the Vipers regarding their schedule release, along with a graphic showing the full slate. RGV's full roster for the upcoming season, which depends in part on roster decisions made by the Rockets after training camp, will be announced at a later date.

Vipers Announce 2021-22 Season Schedule
The Rio Grande Valley Vipers, the NBA G League Affiliate of the Houston Rockets, announced today their 2021-22 season schedule. The Vipers will celebrate their 15th year anniversary with an innovative schedule that tips off on Friday, Nov. 5 at Bert Ogden Arena.
After being away for 604 days, the Vipers open the season at home as they host the Austin Spurs, San Antonio's affiliate, at 7:30 p.m. Central. In celebration of returning back home to the RGV, the Vipers will be giving away a special item to fans.
"We are excited and look forward to welcoming the Rio Grande Valley fans back to Bert Ogden Arena in November," said Rene Borrego, Vipers CEO. "We can't wait to bring back high-quality entertainment with high-caliber talent for our fans to enjoy."
The wait is over! The Vipers home schedule is here, it's time to start planning your Vipers night outs! 🐍
Tickets on sale soon. For more information on season tickets email TicketSales@BertOgdenArena.com

— RGV Vipers (@RGVVipers) September 14, 2021
On Saturday, Nov. 20 and Monday, Nov. 22, RGV will be hosting the Capitanes de la Ciudad de Mexico in their inaugural season at home. The Vipers will also welcome for the first time the Birmingham Squadron, the NBA Pelicans affiliate, on Black Friday, Nov. 26.
RGV will enter 2022 on a six-game road trip, starting out at Iowa Wolves on New Year's Day. February will be the longest the team will be on the road with eight games in seven different cities — Salt Lake City, Santa Cruz, Stockton, Austin, Birmingham, Sioux Falls, and Dallas. The Vipers will end their 15th campaign on Saturday, April 2 as they host Agua Caliente Clippers. In addition, RGV will host their annual All-Star game, where elite local high school talent compete in a West versus East match.
This year's season format is split in two parts. The first set of 12 games and two games from the G League Showcase at the start of season make up the Showcase Cup. The Showcase Cup will feature all 29 teams and NBA G League Ignite that will conclude at the NBA G League Winter Showcase with the Showcase Cup Championship Game.
Teams will be separated into four regional pods, where they will play 12 games against each other in their respective G League markets. The teams with the best win percentage in each regional pod, including the four teams with the next-best percentage across the league, will go on to play for the Showcase Cup in a single-elimination tournament at the NBA G League Winter Showcase between Dec. 19-22. The winners and runners-up will compete for a trophy and a monetary prize pool.
Those teams who don't qualify to compete for the Showcase Cup Championship will each play an additional two games each at the Winter Showcase outside of the tournament format.
The second half of the G League season begins on Dec. 27 and features a traditional regular-season schedule of 36 games. As part of that, the Vipers will host 18 home games and 18 road games. In all, each team will play a total of 50 games in the 2021-22 season.
The Vipers' complete 2021-22 schedule consists of four back-to-back home games, including 10 weekday games: one Monday game, one Tuesday, four games on Wednesday, and four on Thursday. The Vipers will host 15 weekend home games, including six Friday games, seven Saturday games, and one Sunday matchup.
By month, six games will be hosted in November, three in December, six games in January, two in February, eight games in March and one lone game to cap off the season in April. All tip-off times are set at 7:30 Central, except the only Sunday game is set at 6 p.m.
The health and safety of fans remains a top priority, and the team pledges to continue working with the NBA and local public health experts on protocols to keep RGV fans, players, and personnel safe and healthy.

Yesterday, I posted a YouTube video of a recent presentation. The group that recorded the video began recording well before I went on stage, so the video contained over 10 minutes of silence and a couple minutes of announcements.
I wanted to embed the video on my blog, but I wanted it to start playing at the moment the organizer introduced me.
Then, click the "Embed" link (Fig. 2) that appears below the "Share" link.
If you click the "SHOW MORE" link, you will get a few options for your video (Fig. 3) but not the option to change the default start time. By default, your video will start at the very beginning when the user starts playing it.
To set the start time, add a "start" parameter to the end of the URL in the iframe's "src" attribute, as in the following example.
The value of the "start" querystring parameter is the number of seconds from the beginning at which you want the video to start playing.
So I appended "start=753" to the src URL.

I finished the pair of nesting boxes I was working on! I love how they came out and am going to use them to hold little things on my studio table.
I started by cutting out two different sized squares from unstretched canvas and a cotton fabric (a luscious Anna Maria Horner fabric). I cut the printed fabric a little bit bigger and just evened everything up later. I also picked some pretty coordinating thread to work with.
Then I marked a square in the center of the canvas and hand embroidered a favorite song lyric to just the layer of canvas.
Then I put both layers of fabric back together, with the wrong sides of the canvas and print fabric together. I stitched with my sewing machine on the square I marked, then added some additional decorative lines inside the square, radiating out from the corners of the square to the outer corners of the fabric, and around the inside outer edge, just inside the cut lines of the fabric. This not only looks nifty but keeps the two layers secure and sturdy.
Then I headed to the iron and folded up my sides, using my sewn inside square as a guide. I pressed the sides, then folded in the corners and stitched the corners down to the side of the box.


I am completely puzzled what's causing my capsicum leaves to have brown spots and curl up.
It's getting enough sunlight, water (twice a day).
The plant and the capsicum fruit growth seems to be stunted. I don't see it improving or drying up (leaves falling).
All three of my Bell pepper plants have this. Only one of them seems to be recovering.
I also tried not watering one of the plants for 2 days. No change.
Here are some pics of the leaves.
This seems like bacterial spot. This is generally due to untreated seeds. I do not think you have any option other than throwing away the plant and replanting.


The SP 200 is a machine developed by the Porcupine Partnership of BSW Timber and AV Birch. This partnership has built on all of the experience of the UK's leading timber processor and the UK's leading manufacturers of Timber Engineering machinery.
The SP 200 is a single pass high speed incisor machine developed for the larger volume treater. The machine is capable of running at variable feed speeds both as a stand alone machine or as an integrated process. The robust construction, modern control systems, easy maintenance and high operational safety – all backed by strong after sales support – ensure solid performance over a long service life.
Please note there is a fixed conveyor on in feed and out feed. Additional 2000mm conveyor bolted on in feed and out feed. The electrical panel dimensions are 800mmx400mm x1800mm.
Eight head configuration ensures sufficient incision density.
Fully synchronised incising heads ensuring the specifically developed incising pattern is maintained during production runs.
The SP 200 has an ergonomically designed layout and features to allow good uninhibited access to the incising heads for blade changing as well as an "easy lift" crane to change incising blades.
The incising heads have been designed for quick blade change over where by the complete shaft setup and blades are removed in one block to allow a pre-prepared incising head to be be quickly installed into the vacant housing.
They clear out any build up of debris between the blades.
They act as a guide for the timber and hold it in the correct position to ensure equal depth incisions to all four faces.
They prevent tear out of timber on the faces of the post caused by the incising knives.
A unique variable spring loaded damping system on each incising head to cope with the dimensional variation within each timber section as well as the different density and knots encountered down each timber length. The system alleviates damage and stress to blades and helps give a uniform incision pattern.
The SP200 feed speeds are programmed through the inverter and are set at 6 fixed speeds.
The entire SP 200 is fully distance guarded with two interlocked safety access gates connected to the emergency stop circuit while ensuring full process visibility for the operator.
4 Emergency Stop buttons at strategic positions and on main electrical panel.
The SP 200 is CE Marked.
Timber dimensions from 75x75mm through to 200x200mm in 25mm increments. Rectangular posts within these parameters can also be incised.
Larger and smaller timber cross sections can be process by specification and design. This may alter motor size.

Choosing the right educational path for your child is important and the decision to go to a day school or one of the top 10 residential schools in India is vital. The best way to take the right decision is to weigh the benefits and disadvantages of both schools and see which comes out in the top. The good thing about a boarding school is that learning never ceases. Your child is out in an atmosphere where 24 hours a day, 7 days and week and even outside the class, an educational environment is maintained. A boarding school ensures your child learns significant life skills in every work they involve. Unlike day school, boarding schools are strict with homework's and you can be assured that your child is in a distraction-free environment where he can concentrate on his studies.
Earlier, the idea of residential schools was only a choice for the influential but in recent times, residential schools have become more mainframe and we see an increase in admissions in a residential school. When you choose to send your child to a residential school, there is 100% guarantee that there is no compromise on quality of education.
Emerald international school is one of the Top 10 residential schools in India and better-known resident schools in the world that is affiliated to CBSE. As a school, we are committed to a holistic education. We train children to recognize and accept uniqueness and differences in ability to hold to individual rights. Emerald school has developed a curriculum to identify and encourage individual talents of all kinds of children at different stages of their development.
The sole purpose of emerald international school, one among the Top 10 residential schools in India is to equip each child with excellent technological proficiency so that student will function with clarity in the global environment. The intention of emerald is to awaken intelligence and generosity of spirit in students and to prepare them to live in this increasingly complex world with intelligence and humanity. Our teachers attempt to create an atmosphere of space, care, freedom, and security to grow and enlarge their horizons. We also involve parents in this journey as it is important for parents to be aware of their child's talents and limitations to help them develop in their own way but not based on predetermined expectations of the society.
