Visual interaction in recently admitted and chronic long-stay schizophrenic patients.
Several reports have suggested that schizophrenic patients engage in very little Looking and eye-contact. However, previous work, much of it methodologically unsatisfactory, has been based almost always on the clinical psychiatric interview, with the result that several important questions remain unanswered. In particular, we do not know how schizophrenic patients behave in free conversation, how their behaviour with another patient may differ from their behaviour with a psychiatrically normal partner, nor even whether they show individual consistency across encounters. The first study was designed to examine these questions, by observing recently admitted schizophrenic patients in two free dyadic conversations, one with a schizophrenic partner and one with a psychiatrically normal partner, and comparing them with three control groups: depressive patients; patients suffering from neurotic or personality disorders; and psychiatrically normal chest patients. The second study went on to test whether the early descriptions of gross abnormality may be more appropriate to chronic long-stay patients than to recently admitted patients, and the design consisted of a comparison between the two groups. The first study revealed a quite unexpected pattern of results. Consistently across their two encounters, schizophrenic subjects behaved similarly for the most part to all three control groups, normal and abnormal alike. Moreover, the few differences which did emerge conflicted sharply with previous findings, including the writer's, and were no more marked in patient-patient than patient-normal encounters. The second study revealed no differences between chronic long-stay and recently admitted schizophrenic patients. It is suggested that the differences in findings between the present two studies and previous reports are most likely to be attributable to differences in verbal content: schizophrenic patients show abnormalities of visual interaction when talking about personal matters, but behave quite normally when the topic is not of immediate personal relevance.

Interview with Kyoko Matsushita
Essence APAC's CEO
So 2017 was the year, WPP finally played its hand with Essence. Two years after winning a hotly-fought battle to acquire Google's digital-agency-of-record, the world's largest advertising holding company decided to bring Essence from behind the curtain – at the expense of legacy shops MEC and Maxus.
For Asia-Pacific, the effects of this investment surge were soon apparent. Within months, the agency opened four new offices: two in India – Mumbai and Bangalore – as well as one in Jakarta plus Indonesia and a second Australian hub with the launch of a Melbourne base. The Melbourne base came with the win of Australian airline Tiger Airways.
Spearheading this expansion was Kyoko Matsushita, Essence's Japan-based APAC chief executive officer. A 20-year veteran of the media and marketing world, Matsushita now faces a number of daunting tasks ahead to turn Essence into the regional powerhouse that MEC and Maxus were sacrificed for.
In a rare in-depth interview, she details what now lies ahead for Essence in APAC, plus the challenges of running the business from Japan, as well as the struggles of being among a handful of female leaders in the country's media industry.
Last summer we saw the huge announcement that WPP was to merge Maxus and MEC and invest more heavily in Essence. Since then, what major changes and effects have you witnessed in Asia-Pacific?
Well, I met Martin Sorrell in November and he said he was going to support Essence to grow in this region. Some of the MEC and Maxus leadership have joined us to help this across the markets. Our geographical footprint has evolved; I have gone to now 10 offices. We opened in Delhi last year with Google as our client, but we're hoping to announce some pretty big new ones soon. We're scaling fast in India. I have the people; I have the clients and I get to be selective about which ones we work with.
Google is Essence's primary client globally. But many do point to the dangers of agencies having just one large client supporting them. How important is it for you to now diversify your base?
When I joined Essence four-and-a-half years ago in Singapore, it was just 10 people running a small part of Google. But even then I said, great as Google is, it's a business risk having just one client. So the company was trying to diversify even then, but given the exponential growth of Google and its products and opportunity to serve them in more markets was more than enough for us to digest. The will was there, but the reality was we had to build the foundation.
Now even without the [MEC\Maxus] integration, we have new clients; I have another five or six now. We have FrieslandCampina globally, an FMCG company. Diversifying is my top priority though, because clients benefit from their agency working with different sectors. The integration has accelerated this, but we do need to steer ourselves.
It's interesting you mention FMCG given the recent headlines we've seen about Unilever and P&G re-examining their budgets? In light of this, are you pessimistic for this year?
I think they are looking at new ways they can use their budgets. I'm a marketing person by background. In the FMCG world, people have many options. So FMCGs are in that transitional stage of how do they shift their marketing dollars. They're still getting that revenue in stores while everyone searches for everything online. FrieslandCampina appointed us to assist with their digital transformation, but for FMCGs are moving slow. They just need to work out whether to push their money to digital or traditional and that's why it's fluctuating.
Many clients as well are choosing to take huge chunks of business in-house. Some have said they're looking for more direct control over their media spending . What's your take on that?
At the end of the day, what CMOs are prioritising will really influence the industry as a whole. If they have marketing teams in-house, they are constantly talking about what works and what doesn't. But CMOs don't always have enough information on their own to make some calls.
Some clients like Netflix still believe in in-housing all of their programmatic. There is an upside because you do have full control. But at the same time, you lose some of that objectivity because you're just looking at your own business and brand. In-housing is focused, but you could be blinded by knowing only your business and your audience. Taking it out, and you are putting trust in someone to manage your buying, but if you have the right partner, you can test your insights more and gain the right guidance.
Google is interesting as they are a tech company, but they chose not to in-house their marketing services. We're doing all their digital marketing, including programmatic, and that's their clearly conscious decision to stay objective with their own and other media platforms. When do you everything in-house, are you really learning what's happening in the ad tech space?
Do you use Google's platform to buy Google's media placements?
We do, but we also use multiple DSPs. We are platform agnostic. We assess the client and the market, because a platform's maturity may be different in different markets. You need different experts to do this, not just one programmatic buyer.
On the subject of media buying, what do you think of the growing trend towards private marketplaces?
Again it's very dependent on market. In the US you can get good quality inventory in a private marketplace, as well as public. But here, it varies so much, it's hard to say what's the best.
In India and Japan, you have a private marketplace, but there is not enough inventory. It's not a mature ground to even think about investing their dollars in. In Japan, Dentsu has a private marketplace, but there's not enough inventory so nobody is using it. They set it up to sound ahead of the game, but it doesn't help marketers at the end of the day. I think here only Australia has the right established approach.
You're based in Japan; what's the market like there? For a country as technologically innovative, are they really lacking a robust programmatic marketplace?
Well I was originally sent to Japan to open the Essence office for Google. I was actually meant to be in Singapore eventually, but Japan was the gateway. As it's the third largest economy in the world, Google wanted to succeed there.
So in the US we were experts in the programmatic marketplace, but Japan is a whole other creature. You cannot measure things first of all. Things you discuss in America, don't even exist here, like end-to-end measurement. It's a very traditional space here. You measure reach, brand awareness, but not the viewability and conversion. Since last year, I think programmatic has improved, but Japan is about two years behind the US.
I'm curious to hear your take on what's next for Facebook, as they have been making many headlines over recent months in the media and marketing space.
Facebook I think needs to take the next step forward to engage their audiences. The platform is mature, but how they deliver content needs to probably evolve. A lot of people still spend money on Facebook, and in APAC Twitter is increasing. But people won't even bother looking at ads if the content and formats are not interesting. That's what these companies will continue to need to look at if they want to command ad spend. For a lot of people, Facebook is not the platform they signed up to anymore. Everyone is on it, from grandmas and uncles.

On a different note, GroupM Japan has a noticeably high ratio of female leaders when compared with other Japanese media agencies: there's you, Wavemaker director Masako Wakana and chief client officer Linda Lee. Was that a conscious effort by GroupM?
I came back to Asia after spending some time away. Coming back here, and it's majority men still. You know they would look me up and down and say: 'Where's your boss?' In Japan, the most senior person goes into a meeting first, so my colleagues would push me ahead. And the person [in the meeting] would say: 'Where's the senior representative?' And I would just say, it's me. I worked here briefly 20 years ago when I was 22, and to an extent the culture has not changed [since then], in that it's ok to look at you from head to toe. And I just thought 'wow'.
GroupM does have more female leaders, but I don't think it was a quota thing. The leaders here have been in those positions for a while. But I think it's pretty rare in Japan. I happen to be a woman and Japanese, and I don't think there is anyone else with that background and an APAC remit – as far as I know.
People in Japan remark that they don't see many Japanese women with an APAC remit and they are surprised when they see me. And what surprises me is that they are surprised by it. I do feel in my capacity that I can help change things in this market. Half of the office here is female – and not just because I wanted female employees – but I want to create an environment where you can choose to have a family whether you're a man or woman and be yourself. That's harder in some companies here than others. As a leader, I think I can create that environment; more liberal, open and where people can express themselves."
My understanding of work culture in Japan is that the boss has to be the first to leave on a working day. Do you set an example to ensure staff leave work at a reasonable hour – especially given some of Japan's history with overwork?
This environment and that of GroupM are not traditional Japanese environments. People leave whenever they're done and that's totally fine: I wouldn't want anyone to stay because I'm in the office. I didn't grow up in that environment, so I don't even know what it's like. My staff work hard; digital is 24/7. But they have control over their time and work. And it's my mission to create that environment.
Of course spotlight was shed on the issue for all the wrong reasons with the suicide of Matsuri Takahshi
It's such a sad reality. [Dentsu] did make a very public announcement, but are they all working differently now? Not really. It's not just agencies; clients expect people to work that way in Japan. It's a chicken and egg situation, so the marketers need to change their way of working. In China it's the same. You use WeChat or Line to tell your agency what to do. If it's a launch that needs to happen at midnight, that's different, but some ways of working are just embedded in the culture. It's still predominantly like that. So with that in mind, which clients and business partners do we want to work for? That's why we have to be super selective. But these challenges are what keep the job interesting for me.
Looking forward in 2018, what else lies ahead for Essence aside from the expansion and new business push?
Everyone is looking for data-first, so I really want to keep building that and measurement in the region; find smart and engaging ways to speak to the end users. Ultimately, that is what impacts the bottom line.
Another thing I'm looking at quite aggressively is bringing media and creative much closer together. You can choose the right media platform, but if the creative is poor and the messaging not right, the whole thing just doesn't work. Creative is 70 per cent the success of a campaign. I'm looking at building a [creative] hub in this region this year. Right now I'm thinking where; Sydney looks like a potential location. I'm also thinking of partnering with other agencies in the WPP group. It will probably differ by market, but that will be my focus and it will help clients deliver campaigns and get results.

2023 Washington Nationals Top 10 Prospects Chat
By Savannah McCann
Savannah McCann answered questions regarding the Nationals system today at 3 p.m. ET. You can read the transcript here.
Scott (Boston):
Given all the injuries Cole Henry has faced, is his home now firmly in the bullpen? And if so, is his stuff good enough to be a back end guy?
Savannah McCann: I wish I had a better answer for you, Scott! Henry's future is a big question mark right now. He had thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) surgery in August and will need at least six to eight months to rehab/recover. The organization expects him to be back for the end of spring training, however that timeline is just an estimate. TOS surgery has been hit-or-miss in its success rate. Some are able to return to the same level of play, while others (like Stephen Strasburg) continue to struggle. The Nats are very high on Henry. So, if he is OK to pitch, there will be a spot for him.
Warren (New London):
Jake Alu is an older prospect, but he had a very good year and seems to have improved a lot at third base. How close was he to the top 10? Could he win the 3B job from Jeimer Candelario and Carter Kieboom?
Savannah McCann: A few months ago, this question would have seemed crazy (unless of course, you follow the Nats minor league system *wink). Alu has done nothing but produce since he was drafted. I think the organization has always been focused on Carter Kieboom ... until now. That is not to say that they have completely moved on. However, both of these prospects are 25-years-old. One has improved defense, makes routine plays and produces at the plate. The other has struggled and faced a few injuries. The starting 3B job is not Alu's to lose, but I think there will be a healthy competition at spring training.
Chauncey (Centennial):
How far away is Armando Cruz from the top 10 and what are you hearing about his potential upside?
Savannah McCann: Cruz was juuuust outside the top 10. His ceiling is one of the elite defensive shortstops in baseball. Scouts raved about his glove. Now ... he is still very young and needs to prove that he can hit. Those are two keys to his development but his ability to make crazy plays look routine should pave his way to Nats Park.
I was surprised to see Yasel Antuna listed as the best hitter for average, after a season where he drew a lot of walks but didn't do much else. I assume this means the organization still believes in him, as is also evidenced by them sending him to the Fall League. How close is he to the top 10? This system sure looks a lot better with James Wood in it!
Savannah McCann: Hi Warren! Sorry for the confusion ... the Best Tools found on the landing page are the updated ones (not the ones found on the organization page -- we are working on that now!) BUT... the best hitter for average is Robert Hassell. He owned that title in the Padres organization too. Now, for Yasel Antuna. He has officially dropped out of the Nationals Top 30. He really struggled at Double-A this season and the bat just isn't coming along like the Nats hoped.
Ben (New York):
Who would you pick in a prospect draft between James Wood and Andruw Jones ? Wood might have a slightly lower ceiling but feels like a safer pick
Savannah McCann: This is a great question. I think you are right that Wood is the safer pick. Plus, his hit/power combo is something to be really excited about. He's proven at pro level (not to mention impressive). Drew just came off shoulder surgery, but hopefully he follows in the footsteps of other Dbacks prospects who come back shoulder injury that and MASH. Not a huge deal, but it is something to watch. I'm stealing this line from Carlos Collazo ... Druw Jones might wind up being the prospect we all thought Victor Robles was going to be.
Savannah McCann: I imagine these two prospects are going to rank close to each other on our updated Top 100.
Charlie H (Wheaton, MD):
Can we assume it will be a full year at Low A for Brady House? Has there been any update to the status of his injury, which was sort of cryptically described as "back isues"?
Savannah McCann: That is a safe assumption. He will need a full, healthy year to get some reps and work on any hitting concerns. From what we heard, House tried playing through a back injury before he was shut down in June. He also had Covid, which messed with his power. This year makes total sense now knowing he was hurt almost all season. Now … if this doesn't immediately go back to normal the Nationals have a problem on their hands.
Bill B (Glen Allen, VA):
Cade Cavalli… another good year. A little improved control with his great stuff take him to the majors for good in May or June? Thanks
Savannah McCann: Great year for Cavalli! The Nationals are going to lean on him to be part of the rebuilding rotation. I could see him being on the Opening Day roster (however, that does play into team control ... so maybe the Nationals wait). The Nats wanted to see him use his changeup more for strikes. That is the next big step in his development.
Does Jarlin Susana have the upside that he could follow the trajectory of Eury Perez?
Savannah McCann: Great question! Geoff Pontes helped me out with this one: "While Susana has big upside and loud stuff his arsenal isn't quite as deep or as refined from a command standpoint as Perez. A majority of Susana's usage is fastball and slider, while Perez shows four pitches consistently. Stuff wise Susana is right there but there's more reliever risk and less refinement at the same age."
Kirk (Virginia):
Looking at pitchers from outside the top 10 (Jake Bennett, Aldo Ramirez, Andry Lara, etc.) and thinking a few years down the road, who do you see as most likely to push their way into a rotation spot?
Savannah McCann: Jake Bennett landed just outside the top 10. His changeup is a thing of beauty and the best in the Nats system. He's really effective at collecting outs and working through longer outings. I could see him being No. 4 or 5 starter at some point. Lara is interesting. He's great at taking feedback and making changes. Scouts are worries about his body and need him to put on some muscle before they see him a a true top prospect. He's very athletic and has a really smooth delivery. If he can develop a third plus pitch, he could sneak into a rotation spot.
Gibbs (Maryland):
There have been some new positions posted/hirings with an apparent focus on analytics. How do you see that being used with some of the younger talent in the system?
Savannah McCann: The Nationals are going to install Hawk-Eye tracking software at every level of the minor league system. That will give them A TON of information to use, especially for the younger talent. They really want to utilize biomechanics and data analytics, as well as hiring people that can explain this to players so it is something they can use.
Ben (Indiana):
Pre-Draft analysis had Brady House having a potential 70 power grade. Given he didnt hit for nearly enough power last year and he had some pretty ugly K/BB ratios and fielding percentages under .900, is he transitioning from an elite all-star caliber potential to a platoon/everyday type player?
Savannah McCann: Before we knew the extent of his injury, I would have the same question as you. However, we are basically going to call this season a mulligan. House was dealing with back issues and Covid, both of which really messed with his ability to hit for power. I said it once ... and I'll say it again. IF House doesn't look back to his potential 70 power-grade self when he gets started again, the Nats may have a problem. This is not to say that the injury is the only reason House struggled this year. He needs to work on being less aggressive at the plate and hitting balls inside the zone.
Rob (New York):
What did the Nationals find in Brennan Cox?
Savannah McCann: Cox is right outside of the Top 30 but he is an interesting prospect (and could very well jump on this list). He's got a nice lefty swing, and a real chance for power. He's a plus runner and has a great arm. He could stick at the centerfield position (but his arm would be great in right field if needed). He could be a good everyday player. The tools are there, for sure.

By B.L. Ochman . Published on January 07, 2013.
As a public service, I like to periodically check in on the number of self-proclaimed social media "gurus," "ninjas," "masters" and "mavens" on Twitter. Why? Well, it seems like an important metric, an indicator of something.
Whatever it means, this is one indicator that is most definitely on the rise. In January 2013, the number of Twitter users with "social media" as part of their bio has grown to epic proportions. The list now tops 181,000 – up from a mere 16,000 when we first started tracking them in 2009, according to FollowerWonk.
Twitter bios allow a mere 140 characters, plus a URL. Therefore, one most boil one's bio down to what one thinks represents one's most essential facts.
While a great many of these self-appointed gurus are no doubt taking the title with tongue firmly planted in cheek, the fact remains: a guru is something someone else calls you, not something you call yourself. Scratch that : let's save "guru" (Sanskrit for "teacher") for religious figures or at least people with real unique knowledge.
they don't promise that social media will provide a quick fix for your bottom line.
One thing seems certain: at this rate, everyone on Twitter will soon be a social media guru.

Two Views on the EPA Clean Power Plan
When Sean Thomas visited the WVU Law last year for Admitted Student Day, it did not take him long to decide that he would be coming back in the fall as a 1L.
Thomas, who is from West Chester, Pennsylvania, had never visited campus, let alone West Virginia, before that fateful day. He had even decided to accept admission to another law school. However, on a gut feeling, he decided to give WVU Law a chance.
It was a good call.
"I had gone to similar events for admitted students at other schools, and I had actually already sent in a deposit to another law school before visiting," Thomas said. "But none of the other schools even compared to how welcoming people were when I came to WVU Law. The staff and professors just came together and really showed how invested they were in the students and our education here. I had spent maybe five hours in West Virginia at that point, but it just seemed like the right decision for me to be here. I just kind of went with my gut."
Thomas's LSAT score qualified him for a scholarship from the Kanawha County Class Action Settlement 2009 Charitable Trust, aka the Bloom Scholarship. It paid his entire tuition and allowed him to focus on doing well in law school instead of finding ways to pay for it.
"Getting the Bloom Scholarship is something I am extremely thankful for and honored to have been given. During my first year of law school, at a time when stress can run high, being able to just focus on my studies and extracurriculars has been invaluable. It has allowed me to focus on setting myself up for the job I want to have and less with the job I might need to have in order to pay off my debt."
By any standard, Thomas's first year of law school has been successful.
He won the 1L Lugar Trial Competition when he and teammate Mitch Moore argued their final round case before the Honorable Russell Clawges of the Monongalia County Circuit Court.
"The Lugar Trial Competition was an excellent opportunity to get a small taste of what it's like to argue a case. While competing, I discovered that I enjoyed everything that went into preparing our case. It really solidified that law school, and WVU Law specifically, was the right choice for me," he said.
Thomas was also fundraising chair for the Class of 2019, and he became involved with several intramural sports. The collegial attitude among the WVU Law community made it easy to get involved, and the 1L class quickly became a tight-knit group, he said.
"There is a great sense of community among my classmates. I remember thinking back in fall semester, 'We have been here for only three months, but it feels like we have known each other for three years.' Often intramurals or a trivia night bring us together during the week, but many of us also find time on Friday afternoons and the weekends to meet up," Thomas explained.
Thomas's greatest challenge in law school was adapting to the demands of his law classes, but his professors, like his classmates, were always there to lend a hand.
"The phrase 'know your judge' begins to apply on day one at WVU Law. Learning what your professors expect from you is crucial to excelling in your classes," he said. "But they are always willing to help. At any time, I feel like I can approach a professor no matter what the reason, from a question relating to class to advice regarding summer job plans."
Now that Thomas has tackled his first year of law school, he will take on his first summer job in the legal field at Jackson Kelly's Charleston office.
During his free time, he plans to take advantage of West Virginia's natural beauty and resources by getting outdoors to fish and golf.
"I did not have a clue what to expect, moving to West Virginia for law school. But I owe a lot to my professors and staff who will do anything to make sure things go alright for students like me - and things have gone great. Moving here couldn't have gone smoother, and I'm glad I trusted my gut and came to WVU Law."

Joey Barton has been released from jail after serving 74 days of a six-month sentence. The Newcastle midfielder had been jailed for assault in May after he attacked two people in Liverpool last December and had an appeal for early release turned down this month.
But today the midfielder enjoyed his first taste of freedom after weeks in the cells. Barton, wearing jeans and a jumper and carrying a holdall, shook hands with a friend waiting for him outside the prison gates. He made no comment to reporters before getting into a waiting silver Land Rover and being driven off.
Barton also has a four-month suspended sentence hanging over him after being convicted of an assault on his former Manchester City team-mate Ousmane Dabo, but the Professional Footballers' Association are hoping Barton is able to focus on his career and put off-field problems behind him.
The PFA chief executive, Gordon Taylor, believes that the Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan could be the ideal character for Barton to be working with.
"Hopefully Kevin thinks he can work his oracle with Joey and get his life back on track, both as a human being and as a footballer," Taylor told BBC Five Live. "Kevin is very much a people person. He has shown his emotions quite clearly in public. We're all human beings and we all have our failings.
"At the same time you've got to be responsible for your own actions. We've tried to help Joey with the Sporting Chance clinic and to be there to help him when he's needed it. But you need to see something in return."


I sure wish there was a love story like that for me.. May God Bless You Even More Now that you have fulfilled your fans wishes, dreams, and fantasies, emptying your cup. LOVED East of Eden (still my all time fav after 100 dramas! It is time to fill your physical, mentally, and spiritual well being so you are healthy in all aspects of your life. ), and hope there is a way to see your new movie Obsessed with English subtitles!!! As The Celebrity magazine interview says, you have the perfect face, and I honestly DO feel you can make me feel more than one emotion at a time!!!

Q: Conditionally rendered map function This code without any conditions works okay:
return (

Current session: {session}

        { Object.keys(cart).map( (thing, i) =>

{ JSON.stringify(cart[thing]) }

        ) }

)

If I add this type of condition it works (without the map function):
return (

       { session &&

Current session: {session}

        }

)

But if I try to add that map function from the first example, it doesn't work:
  return (

       { session &&

Current session: {session}

        { Object.keys(cart).map( (thing, i) =>

{ JSON.stringify(cart[thing]) }

         )}
       }

 )

How could I add a map function that only rendered in a condition? I tried a ternary condition and there seemed to be a similar problem with that as well. What adjustment do I need to make?

A: basically the second argument after the condition needs to wrapped either in a div or as an array if you are using React v16.1 or lower
like
return (

    { session &&

        [

Current session {session}
,
             Object.keys(cart).map( (thing,i) => {

{ JSON.stringify(cart[thing]) }

              })
         ]

    }

);

Working CodeSandbox
or else if using v16.2, you can make use of Fragment
return (

    { session &&

        <React.Fragment>

Current session {session}

        {
          Object.keys(cart).map( (thing,i) => {

{ JSON.stringify(cart[thing]) }

          })
        }
        </React.Fragment>

    }

);

A: You need to wrap the returned component in a div.  This will require two divs in your case, to handle the possibility of session being undefined. The ternary variation you tried would have had the same issue.
return (

    { session &&

Current session {session}

        {
          Object.keys(cart).map( (thing,i) => {

{ JSON.stringify(cart[thing]) }

          })
        }

    }

);

The most typical systems for transmitting power from a drive to a driven shaft are belt, gear, and chain drives. But V-belt drive systems, also called friction drives (because power is transmitted as a result of the belt's adherence to the pulley) are an economical option for industrial, automotive, commercial, agricultural, and home appliance applications. V-belt drives are also simple to install, need no lubrication, and dampen shock load.
Here's the catch: Standard friction drives may both slide and creep, leading to inexact velocity ratios or degraded timing precision V Belt between input and output shafts. For this reason, it is important to select a belt befitting the application accessible.
Belt drives are among the earliest power tranny systems and were widely used during the Industrial Revolution. After that, flat belts conveyed power over large distances and were made from leather. Later, demands for more powerful machinery, and the growth of large markets like the automobile sector spurred new belt designs. V-belts, with a trapezoidal or V shape, made of rubber, neoprene, and urethane synthetic materials, replaced toned belts. Now, the increased overall surface area material of modern belts adheres to pulley grooves through friction power, to reduce the tension necessary to transmit torque. The top section of the belt, called the tension or insulation section, contains fiber cords for improved strength as it carries the strain of traction power. It can help hold tension members set up and acts as a binder for higher adhesion between cords and additional sections. This way, heat build-up is decreased, extending belt life.
We've designed our V-belts for wear, corrosion, and heat resistance with OE quality fit and building for reliable, long-long lasting performance.
V-Belts are the most common type of drive belt used for power transmitting. Their primary function is certainly to transmit power from a principal source, just like a motor, to a secondary driven unit. They provide the best combination of traction, speed transfer, load distribution, and extended service life. Most are limitless and their cross section can be trapezoidal or "V" shaped. The "V" shape of the belt tracks in a similarly shaped groove on a pulley or sheave. The v-belt wedges into the groove as the load boosts creating power distribution and torque. V-belts are commonly manufactured from rubber or polymer or there could be fibers embedded for added strength and reinforcement.
V-belts are generally found in two construction classes: envelope (wrapped) and raw edge.
Wrapped belts have an increased resistance to oils and intense temps. They can be used as friction clutches during set up.
Raw edge type v-belts are better, generate less heat, enable smaller pulley diameters, enhance power ratings, and offer longer life.
V-belts appear to be relatively benign and basic devices. Just measure the top width and circumference, discover another belt with the same sizes, and slap it on the drive. There's only 1 problem: that strategy is approximately as wrong as possible get.


Karen Schwartz is an Atlanta and NYC based artist. Over the past fifteen years, she also has shown work in juried group and solo exhibitions nationally and abroad, had portraits placed in private and corporate collections, and done portraits and landscapes for commission.
Schwartz's dual practices in art and psychotherapy clearly inform one another and have been key to her fascination with creative process in both endeavors. Her experience as a clinical psychologist practicing psychotherapy from a contemporary psychoanalytic perspective for over 25 years reflects an enduring passion and respect for personal idiosyncrasy that characterizes her early portrait work, the more recent and abstract, life-size human figure paintings, and now, her turn to the reservoir of personal experience within.

Modern tents are a lot easier to put up than they were 10 years ago. Nevertheless, it is worth practicing with a new tent before your first trip.
- Check that all the parts are present and undamaged.
- Get to know your tent and practice pitching it…perhaps in the garden.
Select an area which is as flat as possible… this will make it easier to pitch and ensure you the most comfortable night's sleep!
Avoid low lying or marshy ground which would flood in heavy rain.
Clear the site of anything which could damage the groundsheet, stones or sticks for example.
Make sure that all doors are fully zipped up before you pitch your tent. If you don't, the zips may be under too much tension to work effectively when you try to use them.
Do not peg the groundsheet out too tightly.
It is better not to pitch under trees. When it rains, trees continue to drip long after the rain has stopped and some trees drop sticky sap. Also remember that trees are where birds rest…and they don't care about the cleanliness of your tent!
Make use of any natural windbreaks, such as hedges and try to face the tent door away from the prevailing wind.
Regardless of the type of poles used in a tent, it is always important to use the guylines. They add support and prevent damage to your tent…resulting is a much more restful, worry-free sleep! Their basic purpose is to support the poles at their most vulnerable points and have been positioned, based on hours of product usage and wind tunnel testing.
Normal pegs will bend when they hit a stone or rock, so use groundhog pegs for very hard and stony ground. They're really strong and can be hammered into almost any ground without bending.
Conversely, use plastic or angled pegs for very soft ground. Normal pegs can be easy pulled out of soft ground if it is a bit windy…but these ones are designed to give maximum resistance.
Take extra pegs and guy lines if you are expecting very rough weather. Alternatively storm guy kits can be used to make sure the guylines are long enough…the longer the guyline, the better anchored your tent becomes.
Use groundsheet pegs with a flat head to secure any extra ground sheets (the flat head makes sure you don't trip or hurt yourself on them).
Drive pegs in at a 90 degree angle to the direction of pull to get the best grip in the ground. Peg in line with the direction of the seam.
Pegs situated at the end of zips should be crossed over to take any strain off the zip.
Wipe down your pegs after use to keep them clean and to stop steel pegs from rusting.
Tent flysheets (the outside layer of canvas) are waterproof but they are not breathable, so ventilation is needed to reduce condensation. Condensation usually occurs during the night when outside temperatures drop. The warm, moist air from respiration comes into contact with the cold surface of the tent and condenses to form water droplets. Do not confuse condensation with leakage!
Where possible leave vents, windows and doors slightly open to create airflow in your tent. Some larger tents have a double layered flysheet doors…one layer of mesh and one of canvas. If it is warm enough, the mesh doors can be closed at night with the canvas doors left open, helping air to circulate.
Pitch your tent carefully so that the fabric is taught and the inner and flysheet are not touching. This will reduce drips and keep your inner dry.
Wipe the inside of the flysheet with a soft cloth to remove excess moisture...stopping it from dripping onto you or your kit!
In most conditions, fibreglass poles function very well, but in extreme conditions (strong wind & low temperatures) they may split along their length, or bend near the metal ferules that join the sections together.
If your tent does not come with a spare pole it's well worth buying a single section just in case.
Wipe down your poles if they are wet to stop steel ferules from rusting.
If you want to avoid poles altogether, the Vango Airbeam range of tents use inflated 'beams' for structure instead! They're really sturdy and reliable, but are quite bulky, so advisable for family camping or 'glamping' rather than backpacking, where you don't need to worry about how much gear you have to carry.
When tents are specified as fire retardant, this means that when an ignition source is placed in contact with the fabric it may burn. However when the ignition source is removed from the fabric it will self extinguish. Tents that are not fire retardant can burn down in just a few seconds.
Always ensure there is no possibility of a lit stove coming into contact with the tent fabric and keep exits clear.
Never allow children to play near or with lighted appliances.
Cooking inside a tent will usually cause a lot of condensation anyway! We recommend that you never cook inside a tent…it's always safer to cook outside and is more fun too!
UV rays can damage all fabrics over time, so in order to extend the life of your tent, avoid extended exposure to the sun.
If your tent will be set up for a week or longer, it may be wise to place the tent where it will get some shade from the surrounding area.
Nikwax Tent and Gear Solarproof will re-proof and protect your flysheet from UV degradation.
It is really important to do this properly…to make sure your tent is in good condition to use next time!
Sweep out your tent make sure that rocks, leaves, dirt and branches are all out of the tent.
If possible, take down your tent when it is completely dry…otherwise you will have to unpack it, dry it and repack it at a later time! If you do pack it (and leave it) wet, mildew will grow and this will ruin you tent…stopping it from being waterproof.
Zip shut all the doors, but give air an escape route - leave a zip a fraction open in order to allow air to escape as the tent is collapsed. This will make rolling and storing it easier.
Fold your tent - it may be easier to fold the tent along original fold lines. However, after a few years, this becomes more difficult as the lines fade. A good rule of thumb is to fold the tent about the same length as the tent poles before you roll it up.
Storing your tent - roll your tent neatly with poles and pegs (in their bags) rolled into the tent body. This technique uses the poles as a structure to help roll the tent and means that the poles are cushioned from impact when being carried and stored.
The easiest way to clean a tent is when it's up. It dries better this way too.
You can use a sponge and mild, pure soap to wipe clean a dirty tent. Do not use a washing machine to clean your tent and never use detergents. Always let it air dry before re-packing.
Your tent must be stored dry - a cool, dry place out of the sun is ideal.
When you buy your new tent it will be waterproofed to the level specified on the model (see Waterproofs Guide for explanation of levels of waterproofness). You may notice that after some time or frequent use, rainwater is no longer forming into small droplets ('beading') and running off your flysheet - giving the fabric a wet look.
This is due to the water repellent finish on the outside of your flysheet having been worn off (either through dissolving in rain, degraded by UV or rubbed of as you pitch & take down the tent). Whilst this does not affect the waterproofness of your tent, it may take longer to dry. Apply Fabsil or Nikwax Tent and Gear Proof to restore the water shedding properties of the fabric.
On rough ground, a second groundsheet slipped under the tent will protect the sewn-in groundsheet, which can be expensive to repair or replace if it is torn.

Oryol (, lit. "eagle"; also Orel) is a Project 11351 Nerey-class frigate (NATO reporting name Krivak III) of the Coast Guard of the Federal Security Service of Russia. Previously the ship served in the KGB Border Troops Naval Service as Imeni XXVII siezda KPSS (Имени XXVII съезда КПСС).

Design and description
Oryol was one of nine Project 11351 ships launched between 1982 and 1992. Project 11351, the Nerey (, "Nereus") class, was the patrol version of the Project 1135 Burevestnik for the Soviet Maritime Border Troops. The ships were designated Border Guard Ship (, PSKR) to reflect their role as patrol ships of the Border Troops. In comparison to other members of the class, Project 11351 ships has a helipad and hangar for a Kamov Ka-27PS search-and-rescue helicopter astern, in exchange to losing one 100 mm gun, one twin-arm surface-to-air missile launcher and the URPK-5 Rastrub (SS-N-14 'Silex') anti-ship missile launchers. NATO classified the vessels as 'Krivak III'-class frigates.

Oryol is  long overall, with a beam of  and a draught of . Displacing  standard and  full load, the ship's power is provided by two  DT59 and two  DS71 gas turbines arranged in a COGAG installation, driving two fixed-pitch propellers. Design speed was  and range  at . The ship's complement is 192, including 31 officers.

Armament and sensors
Oryol is armed with one  AK-100 gun mounted forward of the bridge and two AK-630M close-in weapon system autocannons mounted on each side of the helicopter hangar. Defence against aircraft was provided by twenty 4K33 OSA-M (SA-N-4 'Gecko') surface-to-air missiles which were launched from one set of twin-arm ZIF-122 launchers, mounted aft of the fore 100 mm gun. For anti-submarine warfare, the ship are equipped with a pair of RBU-6000  Smerch-2 12-barrel anti-submarine rocket launchers and a pair of PTA-53-1135 quadruple launchers for  torpedoes, consisted of either 53-65K wake homing torpedo or SET-65 anti-submarine homing torpedo. The ship can also carry 16 naval mines.

The ship sensor suites includes Sapfir-U7 combat management system, a single MR-760 Fregat-MA air/surface search radar, one Vaigach-Nayada navigation radar, and the MP-401 Start Electronic Support Measures (ESM) system. Fire control for the guns consisted of MR-184 Lev radar for the 100 mm gun and Vympel-A radar for the 30 mm autocannons. An extensive sonar complex was fitted, including the bow-mounted MGK-335S Platina-S and the towed-array MG-345 Bronza. The vessel was also equipped with two PK-16 and two PK-10 decoy-dispenser system which used chaff as a form of missile defense.

Construction and career
The frigate was the third ship of the class. The keel was laid on 26 September 1983 with yard number 203 at the Zaliv Shipyard in Kerch. The ship, initially named Yuri Andropov (Юрий Андропов), was launched on 2 November 1985. The ship was renamed to Imeni XXVII siezda KPSS () on 7 March 1986. The vessel was commissioned on 30 September 1986.

The ship was assigned to the 16th Sakhalinskaya Red Banner Separate Brigade of Border Guard Ships in Nakhodka, part of the Pacific Border District. From 10 February to 25 March 1987, Imeni XXVII siezda KPSS sailed from Sevastopol to its assigned homeport in Nakhodka via Suez Canal. The ship begun its first patrol duty on 30 April. In 1990, the ship and its crew starred in the 1991 Soviet action film Charged with Death () as "PSKR Yuri Andropov".

Upon the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991, the ship was retained by Russia and the Maritime Border Forces of the Russian Federation inherited it. The ship underwent long-term maintenance in Vladivostok from 1992 to 1999. In the meantime, the frigate was renamed to Oryol on 1 December 1993. The ship resumed patrol again off the Russian Far East in June 1999.

On 9 October 2001, Oryol was transferred to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. By 14 April 2002, the ship started patrolling the waters off Northeastern Russia. The ship concluded an Agreement on Friendship and Cooperation with Oryol municipal government in May 2002. Oryol participated in large-scale exercise of the Pacific Fleet on 18–28 August 2003. The ship and its crew was awarded with "Excellent" rating for its task during the exercise. The ship celebrated its 30th anniversary in November 2016, which was attended by delegation from City of Oryol officials.

Oryol last seen active service in December 2018, then the ship was put into reserve fleet. The vessel sailed again in spring 2019 and attended the Russian Navy Day in July. Finally Oryol was decommissioned and put into reserve again in November 2019.

In March 2021, a commission from the Ministry of Defence visited the ship, moored in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, to inspect its technical condition. According to a source from Russian navy, Oryol was planned to be transferred to the Russian Navy, as the ship is already 34-years old when it was decommissioned. The coast guard would replace the frigate with new Okean-class patrol ship. Oryol has not been drydocked since 2014, so the ship would have to be drydocked to assess its seaworthiness. The navy would either assign Oryol to the Black Sea Fleet or cannibalized the ship for spare parts supply for the Pacific Fleet.

The Nevada State Athletic Commission has commented on Floyd Mayweather's recent rule change suggestion. Mayweather has stated that he's willing to let Conor McGregor use 8 ounce gloves and he would also fight using the smaller gloves.
"These regulations are in place for the health and safety of the athletes, which is of the utmost importance to the commission. Our regulations already outline the appropriate glove size according to contracted weight of a fight," said Executive Director Bob Bennett according to ESPN.
This basically means that NSAC will not allow the suggested rule change. Both fighters will fight using 10 ounce gloves as per the original agreement.

Femtochemistry: Atomic ballet in slow motion
(Nanowerk News) Chemistry is now ready for the movies: an international team which includes researchers from the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter in Hamburg has used a type of molecular camera to follow a fast-moving ballet performed by atoms in molecules as they change their structure (Science, "Direct Observation of Collective Modes Coupled to Molecular Orbital Driven Charge Transfer").
The researchers use a comparatively compact, efficient and low-cost technology for the detailed and slow-motion observation of how the miniscule atoms move at a molecular transition in a complex material. As is the case with all chemical reactions where atoms change position, such structural transformations take place in a few 100 femtoseconds or even faster – a femtosecond is a millionth of a billionth of a second. Although femtochemistry is already using recording technology for chemical processes, this has so far only been possible with large and expensive installations in which only selected research projects can be undertaken.
A molecular movie: the individual frames show how each individual atom in Pt(dmit)2 molecules moves within a few 100 femtoseconds (fs) while Me4P[Pt(dmit)2]2 is switched from the insulating state to the metallic, conducting state with the aid of laser light. The illustration on the left shows the original structure: grey - platinum, black - carbon, yellow - sulphur. (Image: MPI for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter) (click on image to enlarge)
"Just imagine you could observe how atoms move during a chemical process," says chemistry professor Dwayne Miller enthusiastically. The Director, who hails from Canada, and his team at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter have been working on precisely this problem for many years. With their most recent research, the Hamburg researchers have come an important step closer to their goal.
Chemistry today is still predominantly working with still-life pictures. Although it can derive very precise structural images of molecules using more and more refined methods, these provide only motionless reconstructions of the atomic positions which describe the state before and after a chemical reaction, for example. Theoretical models can describe at least the motions of small molecules during a chemical transformation. But as the number of atoms involved grows, the number of degrees of freedom with which the particles can move in reactions skyrockets as well. "These many degrees of freedom in chemistry can drive physicists crazy," jokes Miller, who is well versed in both natural science disciplines. A precise theoretical calculation of many chemical systems therefore overwhelms any supercomputer.
As enlightening as a slow-motion video of a magician performing a trick
The Hamburg researchers can use their technique to film molecules, however, and thus show the rapid unfolding of an atom ballet in detail. For the researchers, this is as enlightening as a slow-motion video that captures the sleight-of-hand that a magician uses to conjure a rabbit out of a hat.
Dwayne Miller and his colleagues have had to overcome enormous experimental challenges in order to develop the movie camera for chemical processes: atoms move extremely rapidly on the timescale of a few tens or even a few hundred femtoseconds – the time light would need to travel across a hair from one side to the other. The second challenge lay in the miniature size of the atom. Researchers must therefore be able to resolve at least one tenth of a nanometre - a nanometre is one billionth of a metre. "If one were to enlarge an apple up to the diameter of the lunar orbit, then one of its atoms would then be as large as the original apple," Stuart Hayes illustrates the problem. The Scottish researcher leads a team in Miller's department that has just succeeded in capturing the video of a chemical atom ballet.
Only a small number of research teams had access to the pump-probe technology
Recording equipment for fast atomic motion has been around for thirty years or so and was responsible for establishing the field of femtochemistry. In the simplest pump-probe experiment, a "pump" flash of a laser starts the chemical process, a reaction, for example. It is followed by a second "probe" laser flash whose ultra-short femtosecond duration records the current state like a snapshot. By varying the time interval between the two flashes, researchers obtain the individual images of a slow-motion movie.
The method using two laser flashes has some disadvantages, however. The wavelength of the light must be very short so that the second laser flash can resolve individual atoms in the image. Normal lasers do not achieve these wavelengths from the extreme ultraviolet right through to the range of hard X-rays. Another difficulty is the required brightness of the second light pulse. "The shorter the exposure time, the brighter the flashes that you need," explains Miller. These two conditions together mean that large, expensive installations, so-called free-electron lasers, are required. Their small number alone means that only relatively few research teams have access and only for a limited amount of time. From a chemistry point of view this is a critical bottle neck, because the magical tricks of many chemical reactions are waiting to be revealed.
The idea: femtosecond electron flashes instead of laser pulses So, many years ago, Dwayne Miller had the idea of modifying the pump-probe method. He replaced the second flash of the laser in his "movie camera for molecular motions" with a femtosecond "flash" of electrons. Electrons have the advantage that they can directly image the positions of atoms in a molecule. As quantum particles, they have wave-like properties, just like light quanta. But their wavelengths are so short that they have no problem in detecting and imaging individual atoms even at low kinetic energy. They can be generated fairly easily in compact instruments. "These are real table-top experiments," says Stuart Hayes. "Nevertheless, our electron guns are so bright that they can capture the molecular structure in a single shot," adds Miller. Many of his colleagues had long doubted that this method would work with electrons. The problem is that electrons strongly repel one another because they carry the same electric charge. What starts out as a compact cloud of just a few thousand electrons thus runs the risk of expanding rapidly on the way to the sample. It threatens to illuminate the sample for too long so that the short flash time required for a femtosecond resolution would not be achieved. Miller's group solved this problem by reducing the time-of-flight of the electron cloud, optimizing the number of electrons and using a kind of optics for electrons.
A material which can be switched between insulating and metallic state
Using this technique, the Hamburg researchers have now investigated a new molecular material: Me4P[Pt(dmit)2]2, which was recently developed at the RIKEN research institute in Japan. This belongs to an interesting family of materials whose electrical properties can be "switched back and forth" between insulation, metallic conduction, and in some cases even superconduction. This switching is brought about by temperature or pressure and is called phase transition. We know of phase transitions in everyday life, for example the change in ice which melts into water as it is heated. Tadahiko Ishikawa and colleagues at Tokyo Institute of Technology had recently observed the following: when Me4P[Pt(dmit)2]2 was exposed to a flash of laser light its optical properties changed in a similar way to the phase transition brought about by a change in temperature. It transforms from an electrical insulator to a metal.
The researchers can gain a precise understanding of this photo-switching of the material properties only when they can follow in detail how the individual atoms in the molecules behave. The Hamburg researchers have now succeeded in imaging precisely this motion.
"We see the motion of these atoms quite clearly," says Miller, "like stars in the night sky." It turned out that only specific groups of atoms collectively make a small number of coordinated key movements in order to change the properties of the material. Precisely that is the crucial insight for Miller: the thousands of possibilities are reduced to a few simple, basic dance steps of the atomic ballet.
Visual observation leads to a better understanding of chemical processes
For Miller, the breakthrough to moving images represents a conceptual revolution in chemistry. As researchers make such fundamental visual observations of these atomic patterns of motion, they can understand chemical processes much better. The Professor compares the myriad of possibilities in a chemical reaction involving thousands of atoms with a mountainous landscape. The valleys represent different, stable molecular structures. In order for one structure to transform into another, it must go over the summit region into one of the neighbouring valleys.
"The many possibilities then reduce to the path that is most accessible," explains Hayes. These paths correspond to the few basic steps of the molecular dance, as revealed by the movies.
"Our most recent molecular film is the culmination of years of work," Miller says enthusiastically: "I could watch it over and over again." Who knows, maybe these recordings will have a similar significance for the development of chemistry as the first films of the Lumière brothers which were the first time to capture our life in moving pictures.

Writes on the Range: Tar sands mining, up front and grotesque
Columns | November 6, 2014
Heartbreaking, dehumanizing, toxic — these aren't the words most people would pick to describe the boreal forest of Canada. But in the far reaches of northern Alberta, this description seems accurate to me. This lush forest of larch, aspen and spruce — a place where wood bison used to roam — has degenerated to ravaged Mordor, the hellish land described in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.
For the past two summers, I've made the long, nearly 1,300-mile trek from Boise, Idaho, to Fort McMurray, Alberta, to see the tar sands up close. I wanted to bear witness to the horrific scraping away of the land and to experience, even just for a moment, what it is like for the people who live with this industry in their backyard. But I didn't go there just to gape at the largest, most destructive industrial project on the planet: I went to walk.
The tar sands Healing Walk, organized and led by Canada's First Nations people of the Athabasca region, began with a three-day gathering held mostly along the shores of Willow Lake. It featured workshops, local speakers and a glimpse into First Nations culture. This year marked the fifth and final Healing Walk.
The walk drew hundreds of people from across North America, from Midwestern ranchers fighting to stop the Keystone XL pipeline to folks from Houston, Texas, who deal with the impacts of tar sands refineries.
In Idaho, we are struggling to stop these corporations from using the narrow, winding road along the Lochsa, a designated wild and scenic river, as a shipping corridor for their super-sized equipment. These "megaloads" are as long as a football field and weigh up to 900,000 pounds.
The Healing Walk itself started just north of Fort McMurray and follows a two-lane highway where traffic rivals that of a large metropolis. The Walk is not a protest, and no one carries anti-tar sands placards. Instead, we are focused on healing the land, water and people who are impacted by the tar sands industry.
Along the peaceful journey, we felt a mix of sadness and outrage as we walked for 8 miles through an industrialized landscape of large open-pit mines and refineries. Where conifers once stood, smokestacks now belched fire and toxic smoke. Birdsong has been replaced by the incessant booming of the propane cannons that are used to discourage wildlife from entering the unlined chemical tailing ponds, which resemble large lakes. Everything seemed desolate and devoid of beauty or life.
Throughout the walk, First Nation elders paused to conduct ceremonial prayers and make offerings to each of the four directions. In these quiet moments, the full impact of the harm being done to the land and people hit hard, bringing many in the crowd to tears.
The pollution from the tar sands sickens not just the animals and the land, but the people, too. You can watch all the videos you want in the media and online, but until you witness it with your own eyes, it's hard to understand the enormity and complexity of it all. When you see it, you realize that no matter how much we need oil, this practice is wrong.
The earth is ripped apart by machines the size of three-story buildings just to get at the tar sands. All of the "overburden" — plants, animals, trees, soil and people — must first be removed to get at the sticky, viscous, tar-like substance.
Yet burning tar sands oil for energy emits three times more carbon dioxide than burning conventional crude. To make matters worse, getting at it destroys the boreal forest — millions of acres of evergreen trees composing the world's largest intact forest that functions as a carbon sink. According to James Hansen, the NASA scientist who became an activist to alert the public to the dangers of human-caused climate change, the tar sands industry spells "game over for the climate." This is an industry we need to halt, he said.
Although this was the last walk, it is not the end of our opposition. The organizers hope to highlight other tar-sands struggles happening across North America. Who knows: Perhaps a Healing Walk will even come to Idaho.

Why Facebook Auto-Play Video Ads Won't Help Facebook
Facebook today launched its long-anticipated auto-play video ads on News Feed with just a few advertisers. The new advertising feature will enable brands to play commercials in silence for 15 seconds until a user clicks on it which then will play in sounds. Moreover, once a user taps an ad, he or she can choose to play it in full screen.
This roll-out will certainly help Facebook foray the video advertising industry. According to eMarketer, U.S. digital ad spending will reach $4.15 billion this year from $2.89 billion last year. That's a 43.5% increase.
Though auto-play video ads can help Facebook yield larger advertising revenue, it may affect the user experience and engagement. The latter plays a greater concern for Facebook as research indicates that there's a significant drop in Facebook user engagement. According to the Mashable, Facebook had lost 1.4 million monthly active users late last year and has carried this epidemic to this year. According to Forbes, the number of active teenage Facebook users has dropped to 56% in the third quarter of 2013 from 76% in the first. Instead of using Facebook, teenage users are now using messaging service such as WeChat as well as photo-sharing applications such as Instagram and Snapchat to connect with each other. According to a Global Web Index chart, the globe usage growth (excluding China) of WeChat and Instagram between 3Q 2013 and 1Q 2013 is 1021% and 85%, respectively. Even Facebook Messenger had grown by 89%. This illustrates the drastic shift in the digital communications space where consumers are substituting social networks with instant messaging services. This as a result has declined Facebook's user-base and engagement level. And by coming out with auto-play video ads, Facebook is not helping the issue. Sadly, it might do the opposite. The video ads may induce consumers to utilize ads free services such as WeChat and Snapchat to interact with their peers. This will further push users away from Facebook which will cause them to see a greater decline in user activity.
Conversely, on Facebook's defense, they'll most likely customize their video advertisements to specific consumers. According to Wired, Facebook now uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to predict products and services that'll intrigue their users. By using this sort of advanced technology, Facebook can showcase video advertisements relevant to their users' needs. This may help them influence their users to enjoy the ads. That said, it all depends on Facebook's execution and how receptive their consumers to the launch.
By releasing auto-play video ads, Facebook is attempting to take a chunk out of the video ad industry. While it seem like a brilliant decision given the field's lucratively, it backfire. With the launch, Facebook may further induce its users to utilize other social networks or messaging services to communicate with each other. This will effectively damage Facebook's advertising business because its ad business can't exist unless there's an audience. Hence, it may be a smarter decision for Facebook to hold off its video ads for now and address its primary concern: to encourage its users to re-engage.

Solar CEOs gather for conference and exposition
SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA - The Solar Electric Power Association (SEPA) and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), the two non-profit organizers of the Solar Power Conference & Expo, announced that they have selected the participants of the annual CEO Panel, a gathering of visionaries from the power, energy and related sectors to discuss issues of top concern to the solar industry.
Typically among the most well attended segments of the Solar Power Conference, the CEO Panel is expected to attract an audience of 3,000 registered conference attendees.
The 2008 CEO Panel takes place as two segments – one on market development and the other on driving down costs – on Wednesday, October 15.
The Solar Power Conference & Expo is the largest solar industry event in the Americas, expected to attract more than 12,000 professional attendees from 70 countries. Attendees will frequent more than 60 conference sessions relating the latest developments in technology, markets, policy and finance, while the international exhibit floor will feature more than 400 exhibitors from every corner of the solar industry.
Reflecting the urgency of increasing renewable energy in the nation's discourse on energy, this year's CEO Panel brings together industry leaders for two separate but related discussions – one on market development and another on reducing technology costs.
"The CEO Panel is designed to offer conference attendees a first-hand account of diverse perspectives from the solar C-suite," said Julia Hamm, executive director of SEPA and chair of the Solar Power Conference & Expo.
"We vary the participants each year to reflect the continued evolution of the solar industry and the topics that are most relevant to our audience. This year we are conducting two separate discussions on key industry challenges – continuing significant annual market growth and lowering costs. We look forward to the conclusions drawn from this year's CEO Panel."
"In the past year the American solar industry has pressed forward with landmark technology innovation and capital expansion, from materials and process breakthroughs to major power plant and factory construction," said Rhone Resch, president of SEIA. "Increasingly the U.S. government has understood the value the solar industry brings to this country, in terms of job creation, investment dollars and environmental benefits. We look forward to hearing this year's CEO Panelists recount lessons learned in the past year, both from here in the U.S. and abroad. Their stories underscore the solar industry's pivotal role in the future of the energy industry, and that the right Federal legislation will guarantee that the future of energy takes root right here in America."
CEO Panel participants echoed the urgency felt by many in the industry that solar power is a key component in the reinvention of our energy infrastructure.
"The cost of solar power has the potential to come down over time," says Jim Rogers, Duke Energy chairman, president and CEO. "As it does, we want to blend solar, other renewables and increased energy efficiency with our existing coal, natural gas and nuclear generation. Using all of these fuels is the best way for our industry to build a bridge to a low-carbon future."
"Bringing down the costs for photovoltaics is essential for the future of our industry. If we manage that, we can make photovoltaics mankind´s main energy source – and that is what we have to do," commented Anton Milner, CEO of Q-Cells. "The Solar Power 2008 CEO Panel is a very good platform for industry leaders to reach a common understanding of the necessities related to this overwhelming target."
"The stakes for advancement in our industry have never been higher, as solar power has moved to the forefront of international consciousness as a potential solution to some of the greatest challenges of our times," said Lyndon Rive, SolarCity's CEO. "This solar industry has never seen greater innovation, be it technical, financial or operational, and Solar Power 2008 should reveal a roadmap to further development that will establish renewable power as the primary source of the world's energy in our lifetimes."
In addition to the CEO Panel, Solar Power 2008 will feature opening and closing keynote sessions, more than 60 breakout conference sessions, 400 exhibitors and countless industry networking opportunities. Solar Power 2008 will encompass the complete range of solar energy technologies, including photovoltaics, concentrating photovoltaics, concentrating solar power, solar hot water, and space heating and cooling.
A new online registration function will allow professionals to filter and sort through exhibitors and session content to create customized personal floor plans and itineraries. These online tools will allow users to make the most of their time in San Diego, navigating the large show floor and comprehensive conference agenda with ease.
Another unique feature of this yearÂ's event is an expanded focus on consumers. Solar Power 2008 Conference & Expo, a business-to-business event, has partnered with the non- profit California Center for Sustainable Energy (CCSE) to coincide with San DiegoÂ's annual Solar Energy Week. This combination creates a comprehensive, week-long schedule addressing both professional and consumer solar interests.
Activities for the public will include Family Solar Day on October 12, a public opening of the Solar Power 2008 exhibit hall on the evening of October 15, and the Tour of Solar Homes on October 18. San Diego Gas & Electric, the Utility Host Sponsor for Solar Power 2008, will also be promoting Solar Energy Week activities to both its commercial and residential customers.

Illuminated River project unveils first four stunningly lit bridges
Thames Luxury Charters have long been a supporter of the fantastic Illuminated River project, a long-term art commission on an unprecedented scale designed to light up bridges throughout central London.
Free to view and accessible to all, Illuminated River is a symbol of London's creativity, ambition and spirit. The artwork celebrates the architecture and heritage of London's historic bridges, and will encourage more people to enjoy the river and the riverside at night.
Following years of hard work and support from across the community and beyond, we are absolutely delighted to see the results in action.
On 17 July 2019, the first phase of the Illuminated River went live as four of the Thames' most famous bridges were transformed at sunset. London Bridge, Cannon Street Bridge, Southwark Bridge and Millennium Bridge are now lit up in unison, with sequenced LED patterns subtly unfolding across each unique structure.
London Bridge will respond to the continuous stream of movement, colour, noise, and cultural activity in the surrounding area. The simple form and silhouette of the bridge is complemented by fields of broad and warm colour.
Cannon Street Bridge
Cannon Street Bridge, despite being one of the oldest bridges on the Thames, has never been lit before. Villareal's artwork celebrates the bridge's oft-overlooked utilitarian character and monumental Doric columns, with subtle kinetic colours mirroring the motion of the trains passing above.
Drawing inspiration from the colour palettes of the Impressionist masters, the bridge's illumination will continue, with slightly more saturation, the colours used on Cannon Street Bridge.
Inspired by superhero Flash Gordon, the lighting scheme was originally designed to incorporate a 'blade of light'. Illuminated River's pulse of light mirrors the movements of people crossing the bridge, highlighting their faces and casting silhouettes that enhance the bridge structure, while preserving the inky darkness of the Thames below.
Artwork for the first four bridges will be seen more than 60 million times each year by Londoners and visitors alike, and the project will eventually see up to 15 bridges lit throughout the city.
The illuminated bridges are stunning additions to London's skyline and add extra sparkle when cruising the river at night. While they can of course be viewed from a distance, there's nothing quite like seeing them up close as you sail through the arches on your very own luxury private vessel.
How to enjoy the Illuminated River with TLC
If you would like to enjoy the Illuminated River from a truly unique perspective, we warmly invite you to start creating your bespoke evening charter with us. Our vessels Elizabethan and Edwardian are both able to sail through the bridges, subject to tides and your chosen route.
Enquire today and you'll receive a bespoke booking proposal from our friendly and experienced Events Management Team, who will assist you every step of the way. We would also be delighted to give you a guided viewing of the fleet so you can see their style and versatility up close.
It's wonderful on water. We look forward to welcoming you on board soon.
