Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Well, open today's Pile of Prep and you will find a link and a quote to a blog post written by Andrew Sullivan. Sullivan writes at The Dish, which is a website that he — he used to write for The Atlantic. He went out on his own. He's one of these guys that's trying to be an independent and not have to work for the man, as it were. He has a brief piece titled "Can American Conservatism Be Saved?" In the piece we find some, I think, worthy discussion. Check out today's transcript for the rest…
Mike: Well, open today's Pile of Prep and you will find a link and a quote to a blog post written by Andrew Sullivan. Sullivan writes at The Dish, which is a website that he — he used to write for The Atlantic. He went out on his own. He's one of these guys that's trying to be an independent and not have to work for the man, as it were. He has a brief piece titled "Can American Conservatism Be Saved?" In the piece we find some, I think, worthy discussion. Of course, this requires to rub brain cells together, and that means if I get into this, the Birzer Effect is going to be in effect for the next hour. I'm doomed to be talking to the Three Stooges cutout sitting across from me and staring at empty tweets and nothing on the Facebook.
Hear the story of the United States AFTER the Constitution like you've never heard it before
With great, great trepidation, I dare to enter the "Can American Conservatism Be Saved?" waters. In other words, the rest of this hour is all on me. I have to cover the whole dang thing and I know it, but I'm going to do it anyway. We can turn this into the big business wanting to attack the Tea Party because this is part of it. Sullivan writes in part:
The best part of Wilfred McClay's new essay on what Michael Oakeshott could contribute to today's American Republicanism is a gem from George Santayana, [Mike: Most of you people know Santayana from a very brief quotation or part of a quotation that he's famous for "those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it."] perhaps the most under-rated conservative writer I know. In thinking of America, Santayana was struck by the vastness of its wildernesses, its gigantic mountain ranges and deserts, its inherent difference from the genteel English conservatism of what Tolkien called the Shire.
But he didn't draw from this any sense of American exceptionalism, in which this country's sheer might could empower it to run the world, or to unleash the animal spirits of capitalism. He saw something else in those mountains:
"A Californian whom I had recently the pleasure of meeting observed that, if the philosophers had lived among your mountains, their systems would have been different from what they are. Certainly, I should say, very different from what those systems are which the European genteel tradition has handed down since Socrates; for these systems are egotistical; directly or indirectly they are anthropocentric, and inspired by the conceited notion that man, or human reason, or the human distinction between good and evil, is the centre and pivot of the universe. That is what the mountains and the woods should make you at last ashamed to assert…
"It is the yoke of this genteel tradition itself that these primeval solitudes lift from your shoulders. They suspend your forced sense of your own importance not merely as individuals, but even as men. They allow you, in one happy moment, at once to play and to worship, to take yourselves simply, humbly, for what you are, and to salute the wild, indifferent, non-censorious infinity of nature. You are admonished that what you can do avails little materially, and in the end nothing. At the same time, through wonder and pleasure, you are taught speculation. You learn what you are really fitted to do, and where lie your natural dignity and joy, namely, in representing many things, without being them, and in letting your imagination, through sympathy, celebrate and echo their life."

Mike: I'm going to stop right there and just make a point. You're not going to find something like that in any conservative rag today, you're not going to find it. You're not going to find very many "conservatives" running about with Santayana and quotes like this in their pockets or on their tongues, ready to pronounce them and share them with the world. Why? [mocking] "This doesn't have anything to do with being the greatest country in the history of Earth, you idiot. That's not conservative. It doesn't have anything to do. Mitter Church, Mitter Church, there's nothing in there about free markets. There is nothing in that silliness there about us being the greatest country in the history of the Earth and the founding fathers. What is wrong with this Santayana guy?" What you would hear would be either dismissal, boredom, or outright denial. [mocking] "Sounds like a bunch of fruity-tooty, hoity-toity libs wrote that crap," is what you would hear.
This is part of your conservative tradition. It used to be — if you really want to delve into this, for many of you asking [mocking] "What book can I read? What book can I read?" I always recommend the same book and no one ever reads it, no one ever reviews the damn thing, and no one ever thanks me for telling them to read it. I'll engage in the thankless task yet again. Get a copy of M.E. Bradford's A Better Guide Than Reason. You don't even have to read the whole thing. I know many of you are going to be bored to tears, I wasn't but many of you will. Slog through the first chapters, about four or five, about the ancient Romans, about the Roman Empire. I think it's one of the best essays ever written about the Roman Empire before it was the Roman Empire. What was life like in Rome before the Caesars were unleashed? Bradford researched this.
Remember, Bradford was not a pol. He didn't care about politics. He wasn't a party man. He didn't care about any of that crap, yet he emerged as one of the better historians of the latter part of the 20th century. Why? His writing was grounded in the fact that he was a professor of literature. That's why Bradford was able to write in such beautiful and brilliant prose. He was able to quote Latin just off the top of his head and drop it in the middle of a sentence. Of course, it made sense to him, but you and I have to look it up because we's dummies. We weren't educated to read that kind of stuff. Even people that were thought to be illiterate like Patrick Henry back in the 1740s, '50s, and '60s were handed Latin books by their schoolmasters and told: Go learn that. Read Gaius Julius Caesar. Come back and write a report. Go learn it.
In any event, this is something that you probably would see in a Bradford essay. If you get beyond A Better Guide Than Reason by M.E. Bradford, the next book in the Bradford canon would be The Reactionary Imperative. Try to read that and you're going to be screaming, [mocking] "This guy was no conservative. He can't write about that kind of stuff. That's fruity-tooty, hoi polloi crap. That sounds like it belongs in some gay bar in New York." Back to Sullivan:
There is a Whitmanesque celebration of America here – but in the service of emphasizing the limits of human activity, the insignificance of so much that rivets us day by day, and the more fruitful option of mere enjoyment of these wildernesses, a giving over to them. And this uniquely American sense of the promising yonder and awe-inspiring West will – and should – shape an indigenous conservatism.
Mike: Let's think about this again. What we're supposed to be doing today as conservatives, follow me, folks, we're supposed to be outraged. We're supposed to have these little dark clouds over our heads. We're supposed to hate everyone. We're supposed to be angry that Obamacare is the law of the land and we can't stop it. We take to radio and television and Facebook and Twitter and email and we scream and holler and call people Hitler and Stalin and every other hell forsaken thing we can think of. We don't stop for a moment to think that there's anything worth being thankful for, nothing, and that there is anything left on this continent that is beautiful and worthy of conservation or preservation. After all, we have to live under Obamacare now. That's going to control our lives. Surely it will have an impact on our lives, but does it actually control them? Remember the story I read you from Alexander Solzhenitsyn? Even though he was in a Soviet gulag, he had written that the Soviets, the Communists, they took our churches away, they took God out of the public, but they never removed him from our hearts. They couldn't do it. It was impossible. Remember that as you ponder some of these things today. Let me get back to Sullivan now.
Why such an emphasis on contingent space and place? Because conservatism in its best sense is about the constant situating of the individual within a cultural and historical context.
Mike: This is why, stop writing me. I've already told people 157 billion times if you want to start reading great stuff, read Bradford's A Better Guide Than Reason. Not that that's the best book bar none, but it's easily available, written in the last 50 years, and this is what Sullivan is talking about. If you want to go back and place yourself in an historical context, then read about what the ancient Romans were like before there was the Roman Empire. Back to Sullivan:
Indeed, the very idea of the individual, an Oakeshottian would insist, is a contingent and unlikely achievement of the modern European and American mind, forged first by Augustine from the moral kindling of Christianity, and elaborated ever since. Individualism can never therefore be an ideology. "I built that" is an excrescent simplification, a form of contempt for tradition and society.
Mike: Weren't many of us "conservatives" obsessed with and running around with T-shirts and what not "I Built That"? Remember that? Remember President Obama said [mocking] "Yeah, I built that." What Sullivan is saying is that while in the broad sense of the word you didn't build it. You stand, as Kirk said, on the shoulder of giants. It's egomaniacal to say that you built it. Of course, ego is not supposed to be part of the conservative canon, but boy is it.
McClay asks the obvious yet overlooked question in our politics today: what is it that American conservatives want to conserve?
Mike: How many times have I asked that question, Mr. Gruss? If you had an abacus and you were trying to count this, what do you think you would be up to now? How many times have I asked that question: Exactly what are you trying to conserve?
AG: I think it would be spinning off the axis. I don't know if I can count that many.
Mike: You need one of those calculators you had back in college with sine and cosine on it, wouldn't you?
AG: Absolutely.
Mike: "It's a great question," says Sullivan. What is it that American conservatives want to conserve? I said I was going to be, because this is the Birzer Effect in effect here, highbrow stuff, one of the ways we can open this up and not make it highbrow — you can answer this question, folks. What do you think? What is it that an American conservative wants to conserve? What should you conserve? I'm curious. Send me an email, [email protected]. Send me a Tweet, @TheKingDude. Make it a Facebook post and tag me in it. I dare you. Sullivan says:
I am sympathetic, for example, to some conservatives' dismay at the decline of unifying cultural events like Christmas or Easter. I am sympathetic to conservative resistance to changes in, say, marriage law, or the cultural impact of mass Latino immigration. There is real loss for many here as well as real gain for many more in the future. But the key to a more productively conservative defense of tradition is, it seems to me, a civility in making the case and an alertness to the occasional, contingent need for genuine reform, as social problems emerge in a changing society.
Today's Republicanism is, in contrast, absolutist, ideological, fundamentalist and angry. It has ceased to be a voice among others in a genuine conversation about our country and become a rigid, absolutist ideology fueled by the worst aspects of the right – from racism to Randian indifference to the many others who made – and make – our lives possible. A lot of the time, it is quite simply philistine. Here's what McClay gleans from Oakeshott's writing that could help the cause of conservative reform:
"First, the idea of conversation as the model for civilized life.
"Second, the need to create and preserve appropriate scale in our communities, for the sake of fostering just such conversation.
"Third, the profound human need for release from the burden of purposefulness, which is perhaps another way of expressing the enduring need for transcendence, and avenue that Rationalism tends to foreclose to us.
"And fourth, the irreplaceable mission of liberal learning."
To translate: civility in public discourse, maximal federalism and subsidiarity, [Mike: That's what I call republicanism.] a sense of transcendence to overcome the delusions of materialism and individualism, [Mike: Again, the transcendent being what? Homage and humility in the presence of God. That's what transcendence is.] and a relentless defense of universities as the core places where our society learns to breathe and grow in the light of knowledge and understanding.
Mike: When he says university, he's not talking about what we have today called universities. He's referencing the ancient model of the university, which had the trivium and quadrivium, I believe, the three and four things that classical education is supposed to teach. How many people that run universities today even know what the trivium and quadrivium are? The only reason I even know is because I've been reading about it recently. Back to Sullivan:
If you REALLY want to anger "Richard from Troy VA" Buy this set of Coffee mugs from Mike's Store!
Is this an agenda? Not in any sense of the word. And that is the point. There is no fixed set of policies that an Oakeshottian conservative will embrace. It will all depend on the time and the place and the problem. He will question change and reform as a constant necessity – which is what makes him (and me) allergic to the bromides of progressivism. But he will also try and judge when reform is necessary to preserve the coherence of a society. The issue, in the end, is one of prudential judgment about all these questions, a skill and virtue that can never be reduced to an ideology or "ism".
Understanding the limits of one's own understanding makes a political conversation natural. It's what I've tried to foster here on the Dish and failed to live by during the more emotional period after 9/11. [Mike: I think we're all guilty of that, or most of us are.] It's not just a blogging formula. It's a way of thinking. And until we revive that manner of thinking, American conservatism will remain defined by its ugliest and dumbest protagonists.

Remembering Tarla Dalal
India is a potpourri of diverse cultures. People from different places outside the sub-continent had been migrating to India since ages. It is generally thought that most of the migrants whether entering for commercial purposes, in search of greener pastures for their cattle which was the case of Aryans, or for grabbing and establishing their hold came generally through the Western corridor.
This was not the only way people entered India. Parsees came by boats and ships first to Gujarat and then spread to other parts of India especially Mumbai. Ahoms entered India in the North East. Arabs arrived in Southern India in Dhows long back.
Each arrival of the alien people brought with it the different cuisines like Mughalai, Parsee and others. Earlier when the people did not mingle with each other, these cuisines existed in the pure form. But soon people in this field began experimenting with mixing out of curiosity or substitution of ingredients not available at the new place and this fusion of different cuisine elements resulted in different kind of cuisines.
Tarla Dalal was a noted food writer and wrote over more than 100 cookery books. She is credited with bringing together many diverse cuisines from different parts of India and abroad. Her TV programs were very popular because of her way of teaching like a mother to her daughters and in a light manner. At the time that she wrote her books, she was the only source. She kept the flavours alive, the tradition alive. And her recipes still work.
She began cookery classes in 1966 in South Mumbai where she had migrated in 1960 from Pune after her marriage with Naveen Dalal. She was awarded the Padma Shri in 2007. She was India's first master chef. She was the trend setter in the field of spreading the cooking knowledge and made it simple way. Thousands of girls must have kept her cookery books as ready reckoner in their kitchen.
She passed away in November 2013 at the age of 77 years.
As she passed away after a brief illness at the age of 77. Posted on her Facebook page by her team is a message:
"Dear All, We would like to thank all of you for your support and affection through the years of Mrs. Tarla Dalal's career. She is no more with us as she expired in the early hours of this morning. We thank her for all the happiness that her talent has given to us and our families"
With all our love,
Tarla Dalal's Team

Turmeric: Versatile Spice
India produces so many spices like Black pepper, Cardamom, Ginger and Turmeric. Many expedition in the Europe were undertaken for establishing a foothold in India particularly Kerala for procuring its fabled spices. Vasco da Gama was first to reach India in pursuit of the spices.
Turmeric is one spice which is an integral part of Indian cooking. It is given as a suspension in the hot milk to persons who have sustained beatings and internal injuries to relieve pain and swelling because of its powerful antibacterial properties. It contains yellow pigments called curcuminoids. One member of a curcuminoids is curcumin. It has been suggested that curcuminoids may have a beneficial effect in some cancerous conditions, when applied externally. Other experimental studies suggest curcumin may have protective effects on the liver.
Scoop in bowl of turmeric powder with turmeric roots.
India alone produces about 94% of the world's turmeric. It belongs to the ginger family. Its rhizomes are the source of a bright yellow spice and dye. Turmeric is only known as a domesticated plant and not found in the wild. Its origin is in South and Southeast Asia, and prior to being used a s a popular spice may have been first used as a dye.
Some studies suggest that components of the essential oil, such as ar-tumerone, have anti-snake venom activity. The essential oil is also reported to have some insect repellent and insecticidal activity.
As a dye, its color varies depending on how it is processed. If mixed with alkaline fluids it turns bright red, but when mixed with acid it produces yellow. This property makes it an indicator of acidic or basic nature of a solution.
Extracts have been added to creams for use as a colouring agent and traditionally women would rub turmeric into their cheeks to produce a golden glow. The yellow pigment in turmeric is a compound called curcumin.
Turmeric has traditionally been used to counteract many conditions including the aging process in Ayurvedic medicine. In India, turmeric is associated with fertility and prosperity, and brings good luck if applied to a bride's face and body, as part of the ritual purification before a wedding. Turmeric roots may be given as a present on special occasions, such as a visit to a pregnant woman.
Turmeric powder is also sprinkled on sacred images. The use of turmeric is prohibited in a house of mourning.Yellow and orange are both special colors in Hinduism, yellow being associated with Vishnu, and as the color of the space between chastity and sensuality. Orange signifies sacrifice and renunciation and courage. Originally associated with the sun and as part of solar symbolism, the colors were absorbed into the mythology of Hinduism.
In Hindu wedding ceremonies brides would rub turmeric over their bodies. Newborn babies had turmeric rubbed on to their forehead for good luck and they would be given a turmeric necklace to wear to keep away evil spirits. Pieces of the rhizomes are added to water to make an infusion that is used in baths. It is reported that washing in turmeric improves skin tone and reduces hair growth.

Bombay Duck is not a duck!!
Guess what is Bombay duck? Any normal person will think that it must be a duck living in the water bodies around Bombay. There is a surprise. It is a fish!!!
In fact Bombay duck or Bummalo is a fish belonging to lizardfish family. In the areas around Mumbai and Konkan, this fish is found in plenty in the Arabian sea and is very popular among the fish eating people.
The fish is often dried and salted before it is consumed. Generally it is consumed in the fried and curry forms. After drying, the odour of the fish is extremely powerful, and it must consequently be transported in air-tight containers.
Origin of its name as Bombay duck is not certain. Actually, according to one story, the fish was transported in the Bombay Dak train to Calcutta. Dak here means Bombay Mail. Its odor is so strong that Britishers began calling it Bombay Dak which became spoiled to Bombay Duck.
According to local Bangladeshi stories, the term Bombay duck called "Shootkie" by Bangladeshis was first coined by Robert Clive, after tasting a piece of it after his conquest of Bengal, it is told that he referenced the pungent smell to that of the news papers and mail which would come in to the cantonments from Bombay. The term was later popularized among the British public by its appearance in Indian restaurants (which are in fact, mostly Bangladeshi owned) across the country.
https://images.app.goo.gl/MzFLi3dUx79F8L7y5
Despite the rather unpleasant odour of the fish, it is often considered to be a delicacy by connoisseurs of Indian cuisine. If freshly caught, it is sometimes eaten fried in a batter; and in its dried form, it is commonly eaten in a curry. It is also prepared as a pickle. The bones of the fish are soft and easily chewable. Its body bones are very fragile and break on slight twist. So, special care is taken while preparing the dish.
Though the fish is mostly caught in Arabian Sea, small quantities are caught in Bay of Bengal. In Bengal it is called bamaloh or loita. In Gujarati it is called bumla & in Marathi it is called Bombil.
Once I was attending a training on sea safety at Coast Guards office situated near Mallet Ferry Wharf in Bombay (near Docks). Extensive fish catch in trawlers is unloaded here and distributed to Bombay. There I saw boats upon boats on which this fish was drying on the lines. It seemed that buntings are waving on the boats. I also saw how the baskets of fish were tossed from boats and caught up by the men on the wharf platform. This job was so much perfected by the fishermen. There were quintessential fisherwomen with massive buttocks and one end of saris tucked between them. For two or three days whenever there was a break from training I used to visit the wharf. There was a great hustle and bustle there which subsided only in the noon. There were fishes lying on the bridge road to wharf. Urchins wandering there were collecting them and I can safely say they had bags full of them.
Below is the picture of Ferry wharf.
Boats with Catch

Q: What physical change has taken place in a solid, say ice, half way through a latent heat temperature verses time experiment? During the classic high school latent heat experiment a solid such as ice is heated from below the melting point until it is a liquid above the melting point. During this experiment the temperature rises until it reaches the melting point then remains constant for some time and once the solid is melted it continues to rise.
The question is if we stopped the experiment half way through the time of constant temperature what physical difference could we see in the material?
Another way to ask the question would be if we just had a piece of ice made up of two molecules what would the latent heat experiment temperature verses time curve look like?

A: At the risk of an anticlimax halfway through the experiment, half the ice will have melted. There is no special phase of matter that is halfway between water an ice (at least not for water). You simply have one or the other.
If you look at what is going on at the atomic level you will find two processes are occurring. Water molecules are breaking off the ice crystals to join the liquid water. At the same time other water molecules will be bonding back onto the crystal from the liquid. If you have water at its melting point both these process happen at the same rate, so molecules are continually moving between being in the liquid and the solid, but the total amount of each does not change. If you or cool the mixture, you make one of these processes speed up while the other slows down, leading to respectively more liquid water or ice in the equilibrium.

The first ever "Customs Tariff Database Online for India was released by the Chief Economic Adviser (CEA) Dr. Arvind Virmani, on 21 July 2009. This endeavour is a result of the research programme initiated by the Economic Division, Department of Economic Affairs and was prepared by the Academy of Business Studies for the Ministry of Finance under the guidance of Advisers of the Department of Economic Affairs.
researchers and those interested in this to get reliable data online without referring to bulk e books. A beginning of identifying reform plans was made in the Economic Survey of this year and last year. This database will help the government in carrying out customs duty reforms, said Mr. Virmani.
• Line wise Tariff for the 19 RTAs and BTAs such as Sri Lanka, Nepal, Thailand, China (APTA) giving effective preferential duties for specific countries/country groups. Dr H.A.C. Prasad, the trade expert and Sr Economic Advisor in Dept of Economic Affairs who has led the team behind the database told that in this year's Economic Survey this database was used for the boxes on customs duty exemptions and revenue loss and specific customs duties. It can also be linked with other databases like WTO commitments which can be useful even in negotiations at WTO, he said.
The database is the first in India and the world. The European Union was the pioneer in developing Tariff Databases for all important countries in world including India. However, this database is the first comprehensive database covering both tariff and non tariff measures and import values in a single database with provision for monthly and daily updation.

Home » The Fine Art Auction is honored to announce KEF! chosen to represent Germany at FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.
Atlanta, Georgia: December 15th 2022: The Fine Art Auction is honored to announce that its' Artist KEF! was chosen to represent Germany and the world as a part of the official artistic efforts of @visitqatar and the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.
The well-known Artist was one of ten Artists worldwide invited to design the artwork to be placed for all to see at West Bay Beach. These ten artistic superstars are quite clearly well-known and highly-collected Artists and are at the top of their artistic game: all ten represent countries that have won the coveted title.
KEF! INSTALLATION FIFA WORLD CUP QATAR 2022
The goalpost he designed was inspired by the desert rose, found in the sands of Qatar. There is much symbolism here: with the circular lines representing the incredible ability of football and art to bring together people of different cultures and nations.
The Installation will be up through December 20th, 2022.
ABOUT KEF!
Simon Röhlen, also known as KEF!, grew up in Aachen, a small German town right on the Dutch border. Even as a child, he was always looking for something creative, a way in which he could express himself.
Art gave KEF! the opportunity to escape to another world filled with peace and harmony. Here he found peace and true inspiration for his life.
At the age of 14, he went public with his work for the first time. He reconfigured his name graphically and developed an entirely new art form, which he offers for all people worldwide today.
His path began with an enthusiasm for graffiti, particularly street art. For him, creating and viewing graffiti means freedom.
"There are no rules there. Nothing is dictated. Everyone has access to street art, regardless of their social background."
Each of his artworks affects and has an influence on people. Street art influenced KEF! and inspired him to produce it himself. In 2006 he discovered the book "The Art of Rebellion: The World of Street Art". The chance to express himself through graphic art fascinated him.
In 2011 he was contacted by the former German pro soccer player Christian Timm, who invited him to his pop-up gallery "Neeshkat" in which he exhibited KEF! along with other street artists. An important milestone, this motivated him to invest more time in his art and to immerse himself the London art scene.
After having completed his training in the technical field, KEF! knew that from now on he would dedicate himself exclusively to his art. He left his German homeland and moved to London. In London, KEF! painted many walls. His works are now regularly exhibited in European galleries and have found their way into private art collections. At the same time his works are becoming better known and KEF! has received prime commissions beyond Europe.
Since 2005, KEF! Has been living in Berlin. For him, the city radiates the freedom that he needs. The fact that many people in Berlin are creatively active inspires him. KEF! feels an undefinable attachment to Berlin. Nevertheless, he could never tie himself down to one place.
"I'm just a guest on this planet."
KEF! travels regularly, to live his art. Traveling fills him with the sense of being everywhere and nowhere.

Rapid expansion of aviation industry is increasing the need for safety and successful operational handling where smooth performance of aircraft tires plays a vital role. Handling of high pressures and loading is the major part of aircraft wheels where corrosion and physical damage leads to the failure of an aircraft. Therefore, tires are an essential part of aircrafts which needs to meets standard specifications. This is the key factor which is boosting the aircraft tire market across the globe. Manufacturing of aircraft tires is very critical as it needs to meet stringent specifications such as size, depth, tire material etc as per Federal Aviation Administration. Rising incidents due to aircraft tires is a major stress which is raising the competition among manufacturers to produce durable products with least failure rate.
As per International Air Transport Association (IATA), Asia Pacific is the fastest growing region in aviation industry and accounts for nearly 35% of global airport investment. Potential rise aviation sector is growing the demand for aircraft tire market in Asia Pacific region. Top player of aircraft tire market Goodyear Aviation has invested USD 160 million to establish radial aviation tire factory in Bangkok in June 2008. The prime focus of this investment is to meet growing demand of aviation industry in Asia Pacific region. Rising demand for radial aircraft tires is boosting the investment from key market players. In 2016, Goodyear has invested USD 162 million in Thailand to expand the production capacity of radial tires. The project is estimated to be operational in 2018.
Major manufacturing companies of aircraft tires are immensely investing or acquiring to expand their business across the globe and explore developing nations. In 2017, Liberty Hall Capital Partners has acquired Dunlop Aircraft Tyres Ltd., one of the major players of aircraft tire manufacturer for USD 135 million to expand its services in aerospace and defense industry. Key players of aircraft market are spending for the establishment of new manufacturing plants primarily to increase the production capacity. For instance, Bridgestone is spending USD 120 million to establish aircraft tire manufacturing plant in Thailand whereas Michelin is establishing an aircraft tire manufacturing firm in China to expand its services in aviation industry. In July 2016, Michelin and Aviall, a U.S. based aviation parts and aftermarket service provider collaborated together to improve the services and maintenance of aircraft tires. The immense acquisitions and expansion of aircraft tire manufacturers are showcasing the expected bright light of this aircraft tire industry.
In 2016, the number of aircrafts recorded approximately 40,000 across the globe and expected to increase at a growth rate of 4.2% in upcoming years. Rising number of aircrafts across the globe is triggering the demand for aircraft tires. Increasing flight passengers and expansion of cargo industry is creating pressure on airline industries to increase the aircraft fleets. Based upon these factors, the market value of aircraft tires reached USD 1.8 Billion in 2016 and is anticipated to grow at CAGR of 4.82% over the forecast period i.e. 2016-2024. Furthermore, the market is anticipated to garner USD 3.1 Billion by the end of 2024.
Geographically, North America region is the largest market for aircraft tire in 2015 with a revenue share of more than 32.8% globally. North America aircraft tire market accounted USD 320.2 Million in year 2016. As per International Air Transport Association (IATA), United States has more than 13,500 aircraft strength thus driving the demand for aircraft tires in the region. Although, Canada has around 400 aircraft and it is also contributing significant value to the aircraft tire market. Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to dominate the aircraft tire market during the forecast period i.e. 2016-2024. Government is taking initiatives and immensely investing in air transport facilities in countries such as Thailand, India, China, Singapore and Japan.
Europe region is expected to witness stagnant growth in aircraft tire market. Europe was accounted for 20% share of global aircraft tire market in 2016. Russia has highest number of aircrafts in European region which is approximately 3,700. However, France and Germany is expected to increase the spending on aircrafts which will boost the aircraft tire market in near future.
In 2016, Latin America market for aircraft tire was valued USD 80.1 million. Expansion of tourism industry in countries such as Brazil, Mexico and Argentina is expected to raise the number of aircraft over the forecast period which is likely to foster the growth of aircraft tire market in Latin America region.
Aircraft tires play an important role in safety during landings and takeoffs and need to meet the necessary demands for the operation jobs. Safety is the major factor which is driving the global aircraft tire market. Technologically advancement in aircraft tires is helping in reducing weight and offer successful landings and long life span. This helps in reducing the operational cost thus propelling the demand for advanced aircraft tires globally. Up gradation and construction of international airports in developing countries is driving the global aircraft tire market. Implementation of IoT in aircraft tires is revolutionizing the aircraft tire market across the globe. Aircraft engineering company Safran and aircraft tire manufacturing company Michelin has presented connected tires for aeronautical industry in 2017. These tires are comprises with electronic pressure sensor which will detect the inflation pressure and improve the ground maintenance. Innovation in connected tires is triggering the competition for aircraft tire manufacturers and also raising the popularity of connected tires across the globe.
However, proper maintenance of tire from inflation and keeping aircraft tires free from grease or oil is a major challenging factor for the tire manufacturers. No specific life cycle for aircraft tires is also prohibiting the market expansion of aircraft tires across the globe. Aircraft tires made of rubber are prone to get affected in extreme weather creating a difficult situation for manufactures. Aircraft tire manufacturers are overcoming from this restraining factor by adopting elastomers and synthetic materials in manufacturing of aircraft tires. Proper weight distribution and balancing are some of the issues which occur occasionally during the usage of new tires but it majorly affects the functionality. Likewise, fluctuations in raw materials such as rubber and others are some of the growth restraining factor for the global aircraft tire market.

How to Cook a Turkey in Parts
9 Printer-Friendly Version
Sure, a whole roast turkey is a beautiful sight on the Thanksgiving table. But if you want ultimate control and every bit of the bird perfectly cooked, you need to cook your turkey in parts.

Roast Turkey in Parts
Red Wine–Braised Turkey Legs
Sous Vide Turkey Breast With Crispy Skin
Deep-Fried Sous Vide Turkey Porchetta (Turchetta)
If you've ever spent any time putting the things you create on the internet, you're sure to have learned that you can never please everyone. This is true of roasting turkeys as well. I've seen people complain about even the most beautiful, perfectly roasted turkey. The skin can be deeply browned and crisp, the white meat juicy, the dark meat cooked through, and yet afterwards someone will inevitably whisper, "That turkey was a little underdone, wasn't it?"
The thing with poultry like turkeys and chickens is that cooking them whole always means at least a minor trade-off. The dark meat is best when well-done, and the white meat is not, and there's really no way to get each to its ideal temperature in the same amount of time. Yes, there are techniques that can help a lot, like spatchcocking the bird, but in the end, you're always executing a balancing act that leaves some part of the bird at least slightly shy of its ideal.
There is another way, though, and that's to cook the bird in parts. Breaking down the turkey and cooking the components means you don't get the grand centerpiece of a whole roasted bird on the table. But I'm not convinced that's nearly as much of a problem as it's made out to be.
I mean, just look at that platter of meat up above, nicely carved and reassembled for the table. Is that such a visual letdown? One could argue that sawing away at a whole bird in front of guests is a less appealing sight—given how rarely most Americans cook and eat whole turkey, few people are practiced enough at carving one to do so gracefully.
If you do decide to cook your turkey in parts, you have some options. We already have several recipes on Serious Eats, all by Kenji, each designed to deal with either some or all of the butchered bird. What we don't have is an overarching guide to those options. So I'm going to break it down for you here. (Break down the topic, that is—you can break down your own turkey at home, or ask a butcher to do it for you.)
Once you split a turkey into its component parts, you can handle those parts in a handful of ways. The breast is lean and prone to overcooking, so it's much better suited to roasting or sous vide cooking than longer cooking methods, like braising. The legs, on the other hand, can handle more heat. They, too, can be roasted (but for longer than the breast to get them perfectly well-done), or they can be braised, since, unlike the breast, they do amazingly well with extended cooking.
Sous vide, we've found, doesn't lead to good enough results with turkey leg meat to warrant the time and effort—roasting the legs is far easier, and tastes just as good.
How to Break Down a Raw Turkey
Cooking a turkey in parts first requires that you cut it into said parts. This is as easy as breaking down a chicken, and pretty much exactly the same process, except that a turkey is larger. How you do it, though, depends on the cooking method you've chosen.
The legs come off the turkey the same way no matter what: Cut through the skin on the top side of the bird that stretches between the legs and the breast, working the knife down into the natural gap between the leg and the body of the turkey.
Pop the joint where the thigh connects to the body, then continue cutting to fully remove each leg.
What you do with the rest of the turkey will vary with the cooking method. If you're roasting the breast on the bone, as our recipe for roasted turkey in parts calls for, you have to cut the breastbone, with all its meat, from the back.
Using a large, hefty chef's knife or a cleaver, this is relatively easy to do. The hardest part is when you get to where the wings meet the body, since the bones are thicker there. The trick is to find a path through the joints, instead of trying to cut through the bone itself, though a cleaver can do it with brute force if you don't feel like using finesse.
If you're cooking the turkey breast sous vide, you'll need to remove the breast meat from the bone. If you're using our recipe for sous vide turkey breast, you'll first want to remove the skin covering the breast, since the recipe will have you crisp it in the oven and use it as a garnish.
After that, cut out the wishbone, which runs along the breast where it hugs the neck.
Removing the wishbone makes it easier to slice off the meat in one large piece, since it otherwise gets in the way of the knife. (Really, you should remove the wishbone in all cases, since it's just as much in the way when you're carving any fully cooked bird, whether it was roasted whole, spatchcocked, or in parts.)
The final step is to slice the meat off the breastbone. Just like when you're carving a roasted bird, start with the knife adjacent to the keel, then slice downward until you meet the bone. Continue to work the knife along the bone, separating the meat from it as you go.
With your bird butchered, you're ready to get cooking with any of the following recipes.
Whole Roasted Turkey in Parts
Of all the approaches and combinations that are possible when cooking a turkey in parts, roasting them all is by far the easiest. Instead of fitting a whole or spatchcocked turkey into the oven, you simply shove all the parts in. Then, using an instant-read (or probe) thermometer, you pull each when it's done. That's about 150°F (66°C) for the breast and 170°F (77°C) for the legs.
It's not too impressive of a sight going in and out of the oven, but once you've carved the bird—splitting the legs, cutting the breast meat from the bone and slicing it—you can arrange a platter that's quite a looker.
There's really no additional work here compared with cooking the bird whole; you're just front-loading some of the carving work, and taking full control of the results in the process.
Braised Turkey Legs
If you want to get fancier, and have the time to add to an already-busy holiday workload, you could use a different approach for the legs, braising them instead of simply roasting them. With this recipe, what you get in return is meat that's silky and imbued with a flavorful red wine–based sauce. Admittedly, it isn't gravy, but it can hold its own in terms of deliciousness.
The first step for braised turkey legs is to brown the legs in a pan, which builds a good base of Maillard-reaction-y flavor (sounds sexy, right?).
Then you'll sauté aromatics, like onion, carrot, celery, and garlic, and add the wine and some chicken stock or turkey stock. The turkey legs get nestled into this, their skin peeking up from the inky broth to brown as the liquids reduce and the meat grows extra tender.
When the legs are done, strain the cooking liquid, then thicken it with a roux made from butter and flour. It's not traditional for Thanksgiving, but it is elegant.
Sous Vide Turkey Breast
If you're feeling ambitious, you could say to heck with roasting any part of the bird. You could braise the legs and cook the breast...sous vide.
Why do it? Well, as you can see from the photo, it sure makes for some pretty presentation. But beyond that, it gives you ultimate control. There's no risk of overcooking a turkey breast sous vide—it reaches its final temperature, in this case 145°F (63°C), and it stays there. All you have to do is slice it and serve it.
Well, okay, that's not all you have to do. There's some work involved, and it requires a small amount of skill.
First, you have to remove the skin from the turkey breast, ideally in one whole sheet. Then you have to cut off each half of the turkey breast from the bone, which I've described how to do above.
Once you've done that much, though, you have to arrange the turkey breasts into a cylinder by stacking them head to toe and tying them together with kitchen twine.
This isn't the easiest thing to do, but it is doable, especially if you have a second person to help hold things together for the first few rings of twine. After that, the meat should get easier to handle, and won't squirm and slide around too much.
That cylindrical shape is key to cutting perfectly round medallions later, but if for some reason it fails, the only thing that will be harmed is your picture-perfect presentation.
Meanwhile, the skin goes in the oven, sandwiched between layers of parchment paper and two baking sheets, until it's browned and crackling-crisp.
It's worth noting that what's pictured here is our most basic sous vide turkey breast recipe, but if you're feeling even more ambitious, you can try our deep-fried sous vide turkey porchetta (turchetta). It'll add some welcome Italian flair to the holiday table.
Don't Forget to Make Your Gravy
One of the best things about cooking a turkey in parts is that it yields plenty of scrap pieces of turkey from the back for making a quick turkey stock. That stock can then be whisked up into gravy in no time, just by thickening it with a roux of butter and flour and seasoning it with salt, pepper, and a little umami bomb for even deeper flavor. (Soy sauce and fish sauce are two of many options.)
Even better, because you'll have those scraps ready as soon as you've finished butchering your bird, you can make the gravy while the turkey cooks. No need to whip it up at the last minute with the drippings and fond from the turkey's roasting pan after it comes out of the oven. (Though pouring off the fat, deglazing it, and stirring it into the already-made gravy sure won't hurt.)
Will someone still complain? Maybe—people are crazy like that. But at least you'll know you did everything right.

Mayor: Higher fines for less time
loop — Feb 7th, 1996
By Bonnie Loop
Special to the Sun
The thorny issue of Bremerton's downtown parking has led Mayor Lynn Horton to propose reducing the current free parking from three hours to two and increasing fines.
About 25 people attended a meeting Tuesday evening with Horton to air their views on the possible changes.
"The biggest complaint is that there's no place to park," said Tim Jankord, owner of Tim's Cafe, 315 Pacific Ave.
Participants generally agreed that parking spaces are limited and higher fines will encourage long term parkers to use lots rather than park on the streets in slots that should be reserved for shoppers and visitors.
The present fine for overtime parking is $5 no matter how many citations are issued.
Under the proposed system, first-time parkinging violators in any 30-day period will receive a warning. Second violations will result in a $10 fine, with $25 for third violations and $50 for fourth.
"If people get four tickets in a month, it will cost them $85, which is a real incentive to park in a lot rather than on the street," Horton said.
The repeat park issue is also on the table. The present prohition against repeat parking means that if someone parks for a second time in a free zone on the same day, they are subject to fine, even though the total time parked may be less than the three free hours of parking now allowed.
"It's the re-park issue that everyone thinks is unfair," said Mayor Horton. "The proposed plan will allow people to shop two hours, scurry around the block and park two more hours without being ticketed.
"Historically, we've also allowed business owners to identify their cars with a sign and park any amount of time without a ticket. This will go away under the new proposal."
The Mayor has scheduled a meeting on residential parking for Tuesday, Feb. 13, at 7 p.m. in the Neighborhood Christian Center on Fifth and Warren.

The Possibilities and Perils of Supreme Court Reform
Friday 9:15am – 11:00am
Proposals to alter the structure of the Supreme Court and how it does its business have been around for some time and have only multiplied in recent years as the judicial nominations process has grown increasingly contentious. Some claim the Court has never been this politicized and partisan, and that the notion that the Justices are anything but political actors effectuating predetermined agendas is naive. Perhaps not surprisingly, we now hear calls for term limits and Court packing. What should be the progressive orientation toward the Court? Is the Court's legitimacy at stake and, if so, should we care? If we care, can anything be done about it?
Into the Breach: Relying on State Courts and Constitutions to Safeguard Rights
Friday 4:15pm – 6:00pm
Justice William J. Brennan, Jr., observing in 1977 that his more conservative Supreme Court colleagues were underenforcing the guarantees of the Bill of Rights and the 14th Amendment, urged state courts to "step into the breach" and to scrutinize constitutional claims vigorously because "[w]ith federal scrutiny diminished, state courts must respond by increasing their own." Now, with the federal courts moving ever more to the right under the current administration, it may be increasingly important for progressive advocates to look to state courts and state constitutions to advance civil rights and protect individual liberty. Which types of rights might receive stronger protection under state constitutions? What might be at risk with such a strategy? Where the federal and state constitutions contain substantively the same text, is it legitimate for state courts to reach different conclusions than the U.S. Supreme Court about constitutional questions? As progressives look at an increasingly inhospitable federal judicial landscape, are state courts and constitutions the answer?
After Trump: Reforming Government and Repairing Democracy
Saturday 9:15am – 11:00am
The 1972 Watergate Scandal and all that it exposed taught Americans a set of painful lessons about the failures of our democracy that were then reflected in a set of "good government" reforms. More than four decades later, the White House and the Department of Justice have exhibited new and unexpected abuses of government authority. As we look to a post-Trump era, what reforms should we consider enacting to protect our democracy from corruption and unchecked executive power? Should we review – and perhaps rescind – statutes that give the president broad power in times of national emergencies? Should the Vacancies Reform Act be reformed? Should the framework of our anti-corruption laws be reworked? Does the Department of Justice, itself, need restructuring so that it can achieve its mission independent from political influence?
Doing Theory/Doing Law: Teaching, Practicing, Governing, Judging
Saturday 1:15pm – 3:30pm
Three distinguished federal judges draw upon their collective experience as professors, private firm lawyers, executive branch attorneys, and judges to reflect upon how engaging with the law varies (or doesn't) with the role one is playing in the legal system.
Friday Breakout Sessions
Flipping the Narrative on American Democracy
Many progressives lament that our constitutional system is inherently undemocratic, with electoral seats awarded to candidates who don't win the popular vote, and the explicit denial of voting rights to American citizens based on where they live or because they are felons, despite having served their sentences. Indeed, much of the narrative around voting, democracy, and representation over the last decade has focused on concerted efforts to shrink the electorate and gerrymander political districts, and the progressive response to those efforts. Yet the momentum may be shifting. Innovative ideas are on the table that will expand the electorate and ensure that representatives better resemble their constituents. Are we ready to play offense? Will these strategies ultimately strengthen not only voting rights, but also our democratic institutions? Why are these proposals more likely to gain traction than other ideas, and what can be done to support these efforts?
Let's Talk About Text
Some progressive scholars and advocates have long urged that progressives take up the mantle of textualism, arguing that the text, history and structure of the Constitution lead to progressive results. This approach may meet with more support in the coming years as progressive litigators, faced with an increasingly conservative federal judiciary, seize upon originalist and textualist arguments in the hope of winning cases. But some scholars and advocates contend that to concede any ground to conservative interpretive methodology is to ignore its fundamental falsehoods and forsake important constitutional interests. Is there a danger in signing on to a textualist or originalist approach to constitutional interpretation? How should progressives reconcile these arguments?
Promoting Progress: Opportunities and Obstacles to Prosecutor-led Reform
In the last few election cycles, a number of progressive prosecutors have been elected in places like Chicago, Orlando, Philadelphia, and St. Louis, joining the ranks of progressive prosecutors in other cities. Reform-minded attorneys are also serving as line prosecutors in federal and state prosecutor offices across the country. These attorneys, many of whom are men and women of color, are seeking to leverage their roles as prosecutors to combat racial and economic disparities in the criminal justice system. How can prosecutors use their discretion and influence to pursue racial and economic justice? What constraints, both legal and systemic, limit a prosecutor's ability to achieve reform? What are the ethical obligations to pursue prosecutions, even in cases where the law disparately impacts people of color or the economically vulnerable?
2019: A Tech Odyssey
From Siri to smart cars to facial-recognition that forestalls terrorist attacks, artificial intelligence, (AI) is already affecting everyday life whether we realize it or not. AI already tracks and predicts individuals' shopping preferences, political preferences, and locations. But we do not understand the full range of rewards and risks that arise from the use of this technology and the data accumulation necessary for it to work effectively. Computers make trillions of decisions each day in search results and newsfeeds. Do these decisions merit First Amendment protection? Should a computer's prediction about an individual's propensity to commit a crime be admissible as evidence at trial? If a software program develops racial biases could the program – or the programmer – be held liable for unlawful discrimination? And does it, or should it, make a difference if issues related to AI arise in the United States, the UK, or China?
Women's Rights as Human Rights: Raising the Floor & Shattering the Ceiling
It has been ten years since President Barack Obama signed into law the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act and more than twenty since the Beijing World Conference on Women pledged to remove all economic, social, cultural, and political obstacles to women's participation in public and private life. In the last year, we've seen American women win more seats in the House of Representatives and in state and local government than ever before, and the Equal Rights Amendment has now been ratified by 37 states. Yet, many women continue to face serious obstacles in the workplace, from gender and pregnancy discrimination, to sexual harassment; and the United States remains the only country in the developed world that does not mandate employers offer paid leave for new mothers. The threat to women's reproductive rights and health is also back in earnest with a conservative shift in the courts. And all these issues disproportionately impact women of color and low-income women. What legal strategies can be employed to improve gender equality—for all women—and what are the likely obstacles from the courts, the Trump administration, and state and local governments?
Is Deference Deserved?: Reexamining Judicial Review in National Security Cases
Nearly 75 years after the Supreme Court infamously deferred to intentionally misleading government claims of military necessity in Korematsu v. United States, the Court in Trump v. Hawaii upheld on rational basis review the constitutionality of President Trump's "travel ban," his third attempt at effecting, in Trump's own words, a "complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States." More recently, the President has asserted "national security" as a justification for imposing tariffs on steel coming from Canada, and has relied upon dubious claims of a national security crisis to invoke the National Emergencies Act of 1976 to unlock other potential sources of funding for his border wall. Unsurprisingly, litigation has ensued. Principles of judicial deference, particularly in the context of national security, are rooted in the acknowledgment that the executive branch is more expert, experienced, and politically accountable than the judiciary. But is judicial deference appropriate when that expertise isn't consulted or in fact repudiates the executive's claims? Should deference give way when civil rights are in jeopardy? Should there be a more considered approach to when and how courts defer to the executive in these circumstances?
One Factor Among Many? The Future of Affirmative Action
The Supreme Court has previously upheld affirmative action at public higher education institutions, ruling in 2003 that a college or university can consider race as part of a holistic, multi-factor admissions process, and again in 2013 and 2016, that an applicant's race can be considered, so long as the process is narrowly tailored to achieve the compelling interest of student body diversity. However, a new legal strategy is now being tested in cases pending against Harvard University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and a lawsuit seeking admissions data from the University of California system. These lawsuits allege discrimination not against white students, which had been the claim in the previous cases, but against Asian-American applicants. Moreover, a Department of Justice investigation is underway at Yale as to whether it discriminates against Asian-Americans and treats applicants differently on account of race. The investigation follows the Trump Administration's rescission of Obama Administration guidelines that sought to enhance student diversity at colleges and universities. Does/should the fact that plaintiffs belong to a racial minority affect the legal analysis in affirmative action cases? And in light of the Supreme Court's new composition, how likely is this new legal strategy to prevail?
Toward a Progressive Vision of Religious Freedom
Providing exemptions from neutral laws for religious objectors used to be at the forefront of the progressive agenda. In fact, the leading case in this area was Sherbert v. Verner, a decision authored by Justice Brennan. Employment Division v. Smith, the case that overturned Sherbert, was written by Justice Scalia. Conservatives have since picked up the mantle of advocating for religious exemptions both under the Religious Freedom of Restoration Act and the Free Exercise Clause. How should progressives respond to conservative efforts to reinvigorate what was once progressive doctrine? Should progressives consider using RFRA to advance their own causes, for example, to assert a right to assist undocumented immigrants or to make decisions about their intimate lives? What would a contemporary progressive view of free exercise look like?
An ACS #MeToo National Task Force Listening and Discussion Session
As the #MeToo movement evolved, ACS found itself in the cross-section of the discussion with network members in academia, the judiciary (both as judges and law clerks), in public service, and in private practice. Following our 2018 Convention plenary panel on the topic, we formed the ACS #MeToo National Task Force in October 2018, with the goal of tracking trends and considering best practices for the legal community. Since the inception of the Task Force, ACS chapters have hosted listening sessions across the country, and several more are planned. This workshop will act as a national listening session and allow for a geographically diverse perspective on how to combat sexual assault and harassment. A short panel discussion featuring esteemed members of the National Task Force will be followed by small group roundtable discussions. Workshop attendees are encouraged to participate by sharing their perspectives, listening, and keeping shared experiences in the room.

How many people in this country do not want to lose 10 pounds? Or more?Everyone knows that the only thing necessary is to burn more calories thanone eats. The reality of accomplishing that feat is not always straightforward. There are good ways of losing weight, and even more importantly,keeping the weight off. When a person comes into my office to find out howto lose weight in a healthy way, I will give the instruction and counselingthat is necessary. I will discuss several peer reviewed studies looking atvarious aspects of weight loss. Counseling is the single most importantpredictor of sustained weight loss. As they say, knowledge is everything.
Laser Hair Removal is a faster, gentler way to remove unwanted hair, with great results. Laser Hair Removal applies precisely controlled pulses of energy (electrical and light, with cooling), reaching into the hair follicles that lie beneath the skin. The energy heats the hair, right down to the bottom of the root, destroying it without damaging surrounding tissue or skin.Photofacial is a form of photo or light based skin rejuvenation. It promotes collagen growth and skin tightening.
Microneedling used for improved skin tone, and fine lines and wrinkle reduction.
Microdermabrasion for exfoliation and unclogging pores.
Hydrafacial is an exfoliative procedure that also infuses antioxidants.
Growing up I've always been self conscious of a scar on the left side of my upper lip. I got the scar from an accident when I was little and it bothered me for years. When I was about nineteen years old I started getting into modeling. My scar became obvious in photos so I decided to do something about it. I started researching my options and came across lip injections that contain Restylane. I made an appointment with Dr. Casey and she was informative and very understanding of what I had in mind. I was nervous but she was very reassuring. I was very pleased with the results and glad I had Dr. Casey as my doctor.

Music Review: Thanks for the Dance
by Leonard Cohen – SONY LEGACY
Leonard Cohen's creative output of novels and poetry began in the 1950s. By 1966 Judy Collins had persuaded the Canadian writer to sing his poems on stage. Over the next half century, Cohen recorded 15 albums and toured the world many times until his death in 2016 at the age of 82.
Thanks for the Dance is a quintessential mix of Leonard Cohen's melancholy humor, sentimental insights, and lost-love laments, with a hint of social-political critique. These nine songs were recorded at Cohen's home during the final months of his life by his son, musician Adam Cohen, during sessions for You Want It Darker, the album released 19 days before Cohen passed away.
Cohen was raised Jewish and later ordained a Zen priest. On "Happens to the Heart," his calm baritone voice reflects, "I was always working steady / but I never called it art." The most startling lyrics arise on "Puppets," an attempt to under- stand the horrors of the Nazi holocaust. "German puppets burned the Jews / Jewish puppets did not choose. … Puppet presidents command puppet troops to burn the land."
Thanks for the Dance is a musical quilt with guitar, percussion, violin, and background vocals that were added in Los Angeles, Berlin, and Montreal. Javier Mas traveled to Los Angeles from Barcelona to record guitar tracks using Cohen's guitar. Other contributors include Richard Perry of Arcade Fire on bass and Beck on guitar. Michael Chaves mixed the album in Adam Cohen's garage down the street from his father's house with help from producer Daniel Lanois.
The final song of this posthumous album offers a humble message from the beloved singer who brought the world "Suzanne," "Hallelujah," and "I'm Your Man." On "Listen to the Hummingbird" Cohen beckons, "Listen to the mind of G-d / don't listen to me."

Abstract: Extant sloths are highly specialized in upside-down quadrupedal locomotion and completely lost the ability for asymmetrical gaits otherwise typical of terrestrial mammals. In order to study the consequences of the evolution of this derived locomotor mode on the morphofunction of the vertebral column we first analyzed in vivo intervertebral movements during locomotor trials of the sloths using x-ray motion analysis. To achieve this, sloths were trained to move on a motorized "tread-pole" in front of two perpendicular x-ray image intensifiers. When employing upside-down quadrupedal locomotion, dorsoventral flexion/extension of the sloth's spine is insignificant when compared to asymmetrical gaits of terrestrial mammals. Lateral bending and torsion of the spine, however, is as large as or even larger than what has been observed in right-side up terrestrial mammals. Subsequently, we tested whether this aberrant function of the vertebral column is also reflected in the muscle architectural properties of the dorsovertebral muscles. We used layer-wise dissection of the transversospinal system, the longissimus, and the iliocostales to facilitate the 3D digitization of individual muscle fascicles. We determined fascicle length and orientation, the anatomical cross sectional area, muscle volume, and the moment arms to the intervertebral joints. These parameters were found to be in agreement with the previously observed kinematics: they favor extensive lateral bending and torsion, but are disadvantageous for powerful dorsal extension of the spine. The agreement of architectural properties with in vivo function documented in this study further characterizes the specific functional morphology of highly derived extant sloths.
Abstract: Sloths exhibit a range of arboreal locomotion that involves suspension by one or more limbs for extended periods of time. Despite these abilities that require great strength, their skeletal muscle mass is quite low; however, their overall limb form has been extremely modified for suspensory behaviors. The biomechanical functions of these modifications remain poorly understood due to the lack of available data on their limb morphology. To develop an initial understanding, we evaluated muscle architecture in the forelimb of (Bradypus variegatus) using measurements of moment arm (rm) belly mass (MM), belly length (ML), fascicle length (LF), pennation angle (θ), and physiological cross-sectional area (PCSA). From these properties, estimates of isometric force, joint torque, and power were quantified. Our findings show that the limb retractors account for the greatest percentage of total forelimb muscle mass. Significant mass is also distributed to the limb adductors, elbow flexors, and digital flexors. Notably, the humeral mediale, radial, and ulnar heads of m. flexor digitorum profundus each have an isometric force capability similar to that of the massive and highly pennate m. subscapularis. Moreover, all of the antebrachial flexors have high PCSA:MM ratios indicating the substantial force production needed for prolonged suspension. No forelimb muscle has the capacity for high power, while numerous muscles have an architectural arrangement for applying large joint torque, and this capability is greatest among the limb retractors. The retractor and flexors muscles expected to exert large joint torque have low values for FL:rm, and these are opposed by relatively high ratios for the limb protractors, and elbow and digital extensors. Collectively, these architectural specializations provide a means to compensate for the low muscle mass of sloths and suggest further modifications for sustained high force/joint torque.
Abstract: The knowledge of the reproductive physiology and biology of the two-toed sloth is fragmentary at best. So the data of the gestation period in the literature vary from 150 to 322 days. This study is intended to demonstrate the pregnancy diagnosis and the fetometry in the two-toed sloth with ultrasonography. The ultrasound investigations to visualize the genital system in this species can be performed transcutaneous or transrectal. Only the transcutaneous examinations can be performed without immobilization, if the animals are in medical training. The transcutaneous pregnancy examination is executed with a transducer frequency from 6 to 10 MHz. In total 23 pregnancies (n=10 animals) were diagnosed with certainty. The ultrasound investigations were also used to detect the fetal development (n=8 animals). The first indication of an existing pregnancy is the visualization of the gestational sac at the end of the first month of pregnancy. With the beginning of the second month of the gestation period, the embryo is detectable. In the same gestation month the cardiac activity can also be recognized. The crown-rump length of the fetus is only measurable in the third month. For the following months the fetal development is represented on the biparietal diameter (BPD) and the abdominal diameter (AD). The total gestation period in a two-toed sloth lasts 330 to 350 days. In a range from 294 to 316 days, the fetal development could be visualized with ultrasound (n=7 animals). A shorter fetal development of 265 days was registered in one female.

"residents" and leave your property gopher-free.
For weed problems that aren't too extreme, you should be able to find a helpful weed killer product wherever you typically buy your garden supplies. The most well-known synthetic chemical weed killers come in the form of sprays. It is important that you consult a store associate before choosing a kill product that is weed. Some products can be harmful to other plants, native animal life, or pets so you will want to be careful not to introduce these products into your yard.
If you're dealing with a substantial weed problem in your yard, you might consider hiring a professional weed control service. A reputable weed control company in Declezville has access to a number of broad leaf weed control treatment methods and other products that you won't find at your local hardware store. Upon hiring a professional, you may want to discuss creating a fertilization schedule for your lawn as well. A lawn that is flourishing better able to defend itself from aggressive plants. Dandelions and other weeds simply are not able to finish with grass that has thicker, healthier roots.
Soil sterilization is an intriguing technique of cleaning soil of weeds, fungus and insects. The process includes heating the soil to a very high temperature, essentially killing off any seeds, insect eggs, and other unwanted elements. This technique is employed in large-scale farming by the utilization of UV rays, or in some instances, a slash and burn technique. However, you can practice soil sterilization at home on a much smaller level. Potting soil can be heated in an oven or microwave prior to being used for planting. This will ensure that any pests present in the soil, including weed seeds, will be neutralized giving your plants the best possible chance to thrive.
Last but not least, you can help prevent weeds from growing up by incorporating ground cover in specific areas of your garden. Before you begin planting in a new area, consider putting a layer of landscaping fabric below your topsoil. Cut a hole in the fabric for each plant that allows them ample room to grow. Garden fabric will prevent weed seeds hiding in your soil from germinating. Other options for ground cover include wood and mulch chips. When laid generously around plants and shrubs, they help prevent unwanted weeds from growing with the added benefit of incorporating some interest to your garden's aesthetic.
Weed control is the application of EPA-approved chemicals to kill existing weeds and to prevent new weed growth.
At Agriserve, we provide gopher control services that will exterminate these unwanted "residents" and leave your property rodent-free.
We have an ISA Certified Arborist on staff and provide Arborist Reports, Tree Assessments & Inventories, and lawn care programs tailored to your needs.
