\section{1. INTRODUCTION}

The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) contains one of the most vigorous star forming regions, (such as 30~Dor) in our Local Group of galaxies. Located at a distance of 50~kpc (Di Benedetto 2008), it is one of the best galaxies to study supernova remnants (SNRs), due to the favourable position in the direction toward the South Pole. As well as its viewing position, the LMC is also located in one of the coldest areas of the radio sky, which allows us to observe radio emission without the interruption from Galactic foreground radiation. In addition to this, the LMC resides outside of the Galactic plane and therefore the influence of dust, gas and stars is negligible.

Predominately non-thermal emission is a well-known characteristic of SNRs in the radio-continuum. Although SNRs have a typical radio spectral index of $\alpha\sim-0.5$ defined by $S\propto\nu^\alpha$, this can significantly change, due to the fact of the wide variety of types of SNRs in various environments (Filipovi\'c et al.~1998a). The ISM's morphology, structure, behaviour and evolution can be attributed to SNRs, and in turn this heavily impacts the evolution of SNRs, as they are dependant on the environment in which they reside.

Here, we report on new radio-continuum and optical observations of previously poorly studied \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}. The observations, data reduction and imaging techniques are described in Section~2. The astrophysical interpretation of newly obtained moderate-resolution total intensity and polarimetric image in combination with the existing Magellanic Cloud Emission Line Survey (MCELS) images are discussed in Section~3.

\section{2. OBSERVATIONAL DATA}

\subsection{2.1. Previous observations of \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}}

\mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ was initially classified as an SNR based on the Einstein X-ray survey by Long et al.\ (1981) (named LHG~39). Mathewson et al. (1983) catalogued \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ based on their optical observations, reporting an estimated optical size of $237\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}\times212\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}$ (57$\times$51$\pm$1~pc; using 50~kpc as the distance to the LMC). They also studied this object using MOlonglo Synthesis Telescope (MOST) survey. This SNR showed in Clarke et al.~(1976) 408~MHz MC4 catalogue as a distinctive point-like radio source which integrated flux density was later re-measured by Mathewson et al. (1983) to be of 260~mJy. Mills et al.~(1984) detected this source with specific MOST pointings and indicated a spectral index of $\alpha$=--0.45. However, Filipovi\'c et al. (1998b) reported a flatter spectral index of $\alpha$=--0.2$\pm$0.1.

An optically identified object at this position was also listed in the Davies et al.~(1976) catalogue of nebular complexes the Magellanic Clouds as emission nebulae --- DEM\,L204. Chu and Kennicutt~(1988) classified \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ to belong to Population~II? (with '?' indicating uncertain classification) group with very distant (non-influential) stelar association of LH\,53 at some 340~pc. Filipovi\'c et al.~(1998b), using {\sl ROSAT} All Sky Survey (RASS) observations, detected X-ray emission from \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ (LMC RASS~213). Filipovi\'c et al. (1998a) added further confirmation, with a set of single dish Parkes radio-continuum observations on a wide frequency range (Filipovi\'c~et~al.~1995, 1996). Blair et al.~(2006) reported marginal detection only in C {\sc iii} at far ultraviolet wavelengths based on FUSE (Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer) satellite. Finally, Haberl and Pietsch (1999) (named SNR as HP~180) discuss the X-Ray properties of \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ based on ROSAT PSPC observations. Most recently Payne et al. (2008) presented optical spectroscopy of a wide range of LMC SNRs including \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}. They found an enhanced [S\textsc{ii}]/H$_\alpha$ ratio of 0.8 typical for SNRs.

\subsection{2.2. New observations of \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}}

We observed \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) on 2$^\mathrm{nd}$ October 1997, using the array configuration EW375, at wavelengths of 3 and 6~cm ($\nu$=8640 and 4800~MHz). Baselines formed with the $6^\mathrm{th}$ ATCA antenna were excluded, as the other five antennas were arranged in a compact configuration. The observations were carried out in the so called ``snap-shot'' mode, totaling $\sim$1 hour of integration over a 12 hour period. Source PKS~B1934-638 was used for primary calibration and source PKS~B0530-727 was used for secondary (phase) calibration. The \textsc{miriad} (Sault and Killeen~2010) and \textsc{karma} (Gooch~2006) software packages were used for reduction and analysis. More information on the observing procedure and other sources observed in this session/project can be found in Boji\v{c}i\'c~et~al.~(2007), Crawford~et~al.~(2008a,b; 2010) and \v{C}ajko~et~al.~(2009).

Images were formed using \textsc{miriad} multi-frequency synthesis (Sault and Wieringa~1994) and natural weighting. They were deconvolved using the {\sc clean} and {\sc restor} algorithms with primary beam correction applied using the {\sc linmos} task. A similar procedure was used for both \textit{U} and \textit{Q} Stokes parameter maps. Because of the low dynamic range (signal to noise ratio between the source flux and $3\sigma$ noise level) self-calibration could not be applied. The 6~cm image (Fig.~1) has a resolution of 41.4\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}$\times$30.3\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}\ at PA=0$^\circ$\ and an estimated r.m.s. noise of 0.15 mJy/beam. Similarly, we made an image of \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ at 3~cm (Fig.~1) with resolution of 22.9\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}$\times$16.5\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}\ (PA=0$^\circ$).

We also used the Magellanic Cloud Emission Line Survey (MCELS) that was carried out with the 0.6~m University of Michigan/CTIO Curtis Schmidt telescope, equipped with a SITE $2048 \times 2048$\ CCD, which gave a field of 1.35\hbox{$^\circ$}\ at a scale of 2.4\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}\,pixel$^{-1}$. Both the LMC and SMC were mapped in narrow bands corresponding to H${\alpha}$, [O\,{\sc iii}]\ ($\lambda$=5007\,\AA), and [S\,{\sc ii}]\ ($\lambda$=6716,\,6731\,\AA), plus matched red and green continuum bands that are used primarily to subtract most of the stars from the images to reveal the full extent of the faint diffuse emission. All the data have been flux-calibrated and assembled into mosaic images, a small section of which is shown in Figs.~2 and 3. Further details regarding the MCELS are given by Smith et al. (2006) and at http://www.ctio.noao.edu/mcels. Here, for the first time, we present optical images of this object in combination with our new radio-continuum data.

\section{3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION}

The remnant has a typical horseshoe morphology (Fig.~1) centered at RA(J2000)=5$^h$27$^m$54.9$^s$, DEC(J2000)=--65\degr49\arcmin49.2\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}\ with a measured diameter at 6~cm of 271\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}$\times$240\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}$\pm$4\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}\ (66$\times$58$\pm$1~pc). We used \textsc{karma} tool {\sc kpvslice} to estimate \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ extension at (6~cm image) the 3$\sigma$ noise level (0.45~mJy) along the major (NE) (Fig.~4) and minor (NW) axis (PA=45$^\circ$). We note that our estimate of the major diameter is significantly larger ($\sim$34\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}) than previously measured by Mathewson et al. (1983). We attribute this to SNR NE extension detected in [O\,{\sc iii}]\ that was not seen in any other optical wavebands (see Fig.~3; right panel). However, our measurements are in better agreement with radio diameters (61$\times$56~pc) previously reported by Mills~et~al.~(1984). The MCELS images are showing particularly strong [O\,{\sc iii}]\ emission around the North, North East (NE) and North West (NW) part of the shell. Especially, in the NW direction where \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ extends to 325\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}$\pm$4\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}\ (78$\pm$1~pc) diameter which is significantly more than at radio or other optical frequencies (Fig.~3; right panel). Also, we note a prominent H$\alpha$ emission towards the southern part of SNR that is probably causing shell brightening at that end. Overall, the optical and radio-continuum emissions follow each other.

In order to estimate spectral energy distribution for this object, we use our new integrated flux density measurements at various radio frequencies with 408~MHz measurement by Mathewson~et~al.~(1983), 843~MHz measurement by Mills~et~al.~(1984) as well as at 1400~MHz (from the mosaics presented by Filipovi\'c et al.~(2009) and Hughes~et~al.~(2007)). We list these flux density measurements at various frequencies in Table~1 and then plot \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ spectral index ($\alpha$) in (Fig.~5). The overall radio-continuum spectral index of \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ is unusually steep ($\alpha$=--0.92$\pm$0.11) given that this is most likely older (evolved) SNR, due to its rather large size of $\sim$66~pc. Usually, a steep gradient like this would suggest a much younger and energetic SNR. However, in this case, the steepness can be contributed to the fact of missing short spacings at higher radio-continuum frequencies (4800 and 8640 MHz) and therefore missing flux. Specifically at 3~cm (where the ATCA primary beam is $\sim$300\hbox{$^{\prime\prime}$}) this SNR edges would be positioned close to the primary beam boundary where the flux tend be significantly uncertain. We also note that this may indicate that a simple model does not accurately describe the data, and that a higher order model is needed. This is not unusual, given that several other Magellanic Clouds SNR's exhibit this ``curved'' spectra (Crawford et al. 2008b). Noting the breakdown of the power law fit at shorter wavelengths, we decomposed the spectral index estimate into two components, one ($\alpha_{1}$) between 73 and 20~cm, and the other ($\alpha_{2}$) between 6 and 3~cm. The first component, $\alpha_{1}$= --0.51$\pm$0.08 is a very good fit and typical for an SNR, whereas the second, \mbox{$\alpha_{2}$=--1.60$\pm$0.34,} is a poor fit, and indicates that non-thermal emission can be described by different populations of electrons with different energy indices. Although the low flux at 3~cm (and to a lesser extent at 6~cm) could cause the large deviations, an underestimate of up to $\sim$50\% would still lead to a ``curved'' spectrum.

Such a curved spectrum, as it is shown in Fig.~5, can be explained using so-called diffuse shock acceleration (DSA) theory coupled with the effect of synchrotron losses within the finite emission region. If the thin region near the shock discontinuity is not resolved by the telescope beam, the  observed emission includes some flux from electrons which have been diffused away from the place of effective acceleration and lose a significant amount of energy via synchrotron emission. As these losses are more severe for higher energy electrons, we expect this to steepen the observed synchrotron spectrum. For details see Heavens and Meisenheimer (1987), Longair (2000, and references therein).

The linear polarization images for each frequency were created using \textit{Q} and \textit{U} parameters (Fig.~6). The 6~cm image reveals some strong linear polarization, greater than various other LMC SNRs (Boji{\v c}i{\'c} et al. 2007; Crawford et al. 2008a,b; \v{C}ajko et al. 2009; Crawford et al. 2010). The mean fractional polarisation at 6~cm was calculated using flux density and polarisation:
\begin{equation}
P=\frac{\sqrt{S_{Q}^{2}+S_{U}^{2}}}{S_{I}}\cdot 100\%
\end{equation}
\noindent where $S_{Q}, S_{U}$ and $S_{I}$ are integrated intensities for \textit{Q}, \textit{U} and \textit{I} Stokes parameters. Our estimated peak value is 54\%$\pm$17\% at 6~cm and no reliable detection at 3~cm. Along the shell there is very strong uniform polarisation coinciding with the total peak intensity located at north-west side of the shell. We note that \mbox{{SNR~J0527--6549}}\ exhibit one of the strongest polarisations observed so far in the LMC averaged at approximately 50\% (Fig.~6) as would be expected from non-thermal SNRs. This relatively high level of polarization is (theoretically) expected for an SNR with a radio spectrum of around or less than $-0.5$ (Rolfs and Wilson 2003). Possibly, this may indicate varied dynamics along the shell. Without reliable polarisation measurements at a second frequency we could not determine the Faraday rotation, and thus cannot deduce the magnetic field strength.

Should managers be technical?
www.proofofconcept.pub
Issue 122: Let's discuss one of the spiciest topics in tech
David Hoang
"Should managers be technically excellent in their craft? What a skill level should they maintain? This is a question I get a lot during office hours, mentorship sessions, and via email. In May, Elon Musk tweeted his perspective on this. The tweet stated:
"I strongly believe that all managers in a technical area must be technically excellent. Managers in software must write great software or it's like being a cavalry captain who can't ride a horse!"
Brian Chesky, Airbnb CEO reposted the tweet in agreement about design leaders being technical. Posts on Twitter usually prompt reactions over rational thinking. What often happens with tweets like this is a strong reaction in agreement by the fans or a very reactive dispute to it. I'll extract the two tweets into the following discussion points:
It's important for leaders to be technically excellent
Managers should be highly skilled in the discipline they lead (based on the calvary captain metaphor)
Leaders should be spending time doing the work (Chesky's comment)
This is essentially three elements: knowledge of your domain expertise, your responsibilities, and how much time you do it. Though my primary discipline, this concept applies to other functions such as engineering, product, or any other technical role.
The key roles of managers are to set expectations, ensure the team is operating efficiently, and maximize the output of the people on your team. In order to develop people, you must have a certain level of understanding of what skills are needed for people to be successful. However, as you progress in your career, there are going to be different org structures in place where it's relevant. If you're a Chief Product Officer, they likely have a more broad level of understanding of other functions outside of their domain and will put leaders in place who have the depth of knowledge in those areas.
Foundational skills
One of the missed opportunities in evaluating the skills of individual contributors and people managers is striking a strong divide between the skills. I cannot stand the term "soft skills" because they are foundational skills for both roles. As a design leader, there was likely a point you were the best designer on a team—with "best" and "a team" not "the team" are this statement's keywords. You've risen to the ranks because of your impact and excellence as a contributor. Now, you encounter an inflection point if you want to focus more as a very senior individual contributor or move into management.
Regardless of the path you chose, this is where influencing through coaching and developing people is crucial. There is a certain level of comprehension needed in your domain. A piano instructor needs enough experience to teach various levels the same way an NBA coach should have played the sport at a high level. Do you really need Hans Zimmer to teach you how to play the piano or Michael Jordan with basketball? As cool as it would be, it's not necessary. You also don't want someone as your manager who just finished a boot camp or online course. Certainly, they have the potential to grow into this role, but you need more experience.
It's about how you apply your skill to a role
Career development looks more like unlocking attributes for a different subclass in a role-playing game than picking a distinct class that can never change. It's not a path. It's a collection of skills and attributes focused on certain outcomes. Applying foundational skills is heavily contingent on your role and responsibility.
This sketch depicts how a manager might apply core skills to her day-to-day. In the end, it's the same competencies applied in a different way. If a design systems team needed to get staffed, the individual contributor might apply skills by directly doing the work whereas the manager might use it to define a rubric on who to hire.
Time spent and scale of the team
I strongly do not agree with Chesky that design leaders should be spending most of their time designing and doing the actual work. It honestly sounds like he misses being a designer. That said, I think it's important for leaders to invest time in exploring new innovations to learn/grow. Reviewing work is crucial to scale excellence, but allow your team to own the decisions.
There are many different types of management roles out there, and depending on what the company is, its scale, and other distinct attributes, the role and responsibility are going to look different. However, having deep technical skills allow you to scale teams longer term. Let's say you're an experienced Product leader. You're taking on a new challenge at a startup as the first product manager with the intent to grow the team. When you're the 0-to-1 leader you start by doing the work, establishing the foundation, and growing the practice as the company grows.
I want to end to articulate my point of view:
Technical skills and acumen are important to articulate strategy and help develop people on your team
The role of leading people is force-multiplying the output of people. When you're doing the work yourself, it limits the time for you to be able to do that at scale
Practice your craft in a way to be at the cutting edge of it to lead effectively and only do the actual work when it calls for it
The cavalry captain should be able to ride a horse but get them off the front lines as they should have more important stuff to work on! Management is something you take on when the value of your team is more important to develop others and help them drive towards shared outcomes that are more impactful than your own. Having more depth in the technical acumen of your field will only give you more range to help others grow. If I had to sum it up, you'd want your manager to be like that army general that still carries the World War II pistol around. He's never going to use it, but you have the confidence if something came up that they have lived experiences to be able to roll their sleeves up and take action.
I'm thankful to have the next two weeks of work off! I only have anti-plans. Looking forward to not being on Zoom, having meetings, and having big blocks of time to do whatever I desire to rest, recover, and explore. I'm going to kick it off by watching my favorite Christmas movie...Prometheus! Hope you all have some time to unwind for the rest of the year!

Love how you've articulated these points, I'm in agreement. I think it's an important mindset shift for new leaders to mentally separate "leadership skills" as a separate learning track they have to invest in. Perhaps that is part of why the Peter Principle exists?
This also points to interesting potential advancement arcs where leadership is gradually portioned into someone's responsibilities over time, rather than flipping a switch to a whole new job description all at once. That would enable younger leadership experience with a longer transition period so they can continue to build their technical expertise alongside delving into leadership.

Great to hear your thoughts on this topic, David. I'm a big fan of the concept of the "product editor" role that Shreyas described here: https://twitter.com/shreyas/status/1055736584429948928?s=46&t=KKNQJxYnPQv22x3G7ZKVgg and I've found it clarifying in my own experience navigating my own journey as a product leader.

It's a new year, friend. And what a previous year it's been.
Celebrating the amazing growth I've experienced while embracing all the parts of me and my world – even the regressive ones that I'd rather not see the light of day.
Nurturing these qualities, active and growing, eyes wide open, transforming the pain, injustices, and setbacks into resolve for intelligent labor – inner, interpersonal, and systemic.
To further develop true seeing, recognizing that our redemption happens together.
There is no liberation without collaboration, and collaboration gives birth to co-liberation.

Attraction Overview | Pictures
One of Brandenburg's most popular family-friendly attractions is the theme park of Tropical Islands Resort, which is housed in a former hangar of the Brand-Briesen Airfield in Halbe. It holds the title of being the largest indoor waterpark in the world, occupying what is the biggest free-standing hall in the world.
The Brand-Briesen Airfield was established for the Luftwaffe in 1938 and taken over by the Soviet Red Army in May 1945. It was returned to Germany following reunification in 1992 and redeveloped to construct airships as the Aerium before the company, CargoLifter, went bankrupt in 2002.
Tropical Islands Resort officially opened its doors on 19 December 2004, with a constant air temperature of 26 °C (78°F) and humidity around 64% recreating a tropical atmosphere throughout the year. It's home to the largest indoor rainforest in the world, which contains around 600 different species and sprawls around its swimming pools, restaurants and manmade beach.
Themed areas include the Tropical Village, with recreated traditional buildings from Thailand, Borneo and Samoa, as well as the Bali Lagoon that features fountains, water slides, whirlpools and a current canal. Also of note is the Tropical Sea area, which is designed like a coral island, with an expansive pool and idyllic beach.
In addition to its water-themed attractions, the Tropical Village Resort includes a miniature golf course and a thrilling African Jungle Lift ride, as well as nightly shows and special entertainment events throughout the year. For those who want to stay and play around the clock, on-site accommodation includes comfortable rooms and safari-inspired tents.

Whenever I travel to a new place I usually have an expectation of what it's going to be like. Cape Town however, blew these right out of the water.
I expected it to be beautiful, I'd heard the food was incredible, the landscape breathtaking – but I had no idea how hard I'd fall for this city. There is something magical about Cape Town, and that's the best way I can describe it.
Climbed Lions Head – This took us 3 hours. We'd been told it was roughly a 90 minute round trip and perhaps this is true if you're Edmund Hillary, but for the rest of us you'll need three solid hours. Take water, wear proper shoes and be prepared to break a sweat. This climb is no joke. Also, brace yourself for literally being "on the edge" – parts of this trail will have you 600m up with only few inches between your feet and the cliff. It's fantastic.
Cable Car to the top of Table Mountain – You can hike Table Mountain but as we'd already done Lion's Head we were happy to pay the 290R (about $20USD) and hop on the 5 minute Cable Car ride to the top. The view from up here will absolutely blow your mind.
Cage Diving with Sharks – First off, its advertised as "Cage Diving with Great Whites" but the Great Whites are few and far between these days, so we saw Copper Sharks instead and as I've never seen a Great White in the flesh, they weren't missed. The experience was still incredible. We did our dive in the town of Gansbaai, which is about 2.5 hours outside of Cape Town.
Day Safari at Aquila Private Game Reserve – This was an interesting one for me as it wasn't actually a safari. Game Reserves are designated protected habitats and the animals are free to roam the 10,000 hectare conservatory that is Aquila, however it's just not the real thing. We were told the 'true' safaris are inland, about a 5 hour drive outside of Johannesburg.
Coastal Walk from Camps Bay to Sea Point – This takes about an hour and is filled with great scenery. I really enjoyed doing it late afternoon.
Visited the Penguins at Boulder Beach – This was a learning experience as we hopped the fence to take pics with the little guys, and copped a 500R fine (about $35USD). The confusion is that you can walk onto the beach about a km up from where we entered, and play/take photos amongst the penguins from that end, so we didn't realise that our short cut wasn't allowed. At any rate, though the fine seems relatively low, the real concern is not upsetting the penguins or their habitat, so follow the signs!
Drove Chapman's Peak – This is a must. It's a winding road that is perched literally on the edge of the mountain on the western side of the Cape Peninsula, between Hout Bay and Noordhoek. Apparently the road can get quite congested, particularly at sunset, but I think we lucked out going around 10am – there were hardly any other cars. You can stop at view points along the drive.
Visited Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden – You can do tours of the garden, or just pay the 70R (about $5USD) to enter the garden and walk around yourself. You can also take a picnic and spend the afternoon hanging out in some pretty insane greenery. Next time I visit Ill be taking a picnic for sure.
Elements Total Stay – Serviced apartments in Sea Point. The apartments were massive, brand new and centrally located in the heart of Sea Point, just a few minutes' walk from the beach. I have to say the staff at Total Stay were incredible – so warm, accommodating and genuinely concerned that we enjoyed that we enjoyed our stay. Check out their website here.
AirBn – There are a ton in Cape Town, you won't have trouble finding one!
Llandudno – The beach itself is beautiful, the surrounding suburb is adorable and the sunsets here are my favourite. Next time I visit Cape Town I will be renting an AirBnb in Llandudno.
Thanks for the tips!! Very informative post! I also love your pics!

Before I became a mom, I was an academic. During my pregnancy with Emilia, I was scrambling to finish my PhD – and teaching, and preparing papers for conferences, and applying for jobs – but even though I was acting as though I was preparing for my future as a Tenured Professor and Professional Smartypants, I was really pretty certain that once the baby came, I was going to slow my pace on that path. I was maybe going to circle right off of that path. I wasn't sure. All I knew was, I didn't see myself in the future that had been laid out for me at that point. I loved my research, but I didn't see myself on departmental committees, I didn't see myself teaching massive undergraduate seminars, I didn't see myself dragging my husband and children around to the remote liberal arts colleges that would be the only places hiring professors of political philosophy, and probably not even tenure-track professors at that. I was headed elsewhere. I knew that much.
What I didn't know at the time was that I was headed for social media. I was also headed for New York.

Michigan needs 'Plan B' for propane supply
Niel Rootare
In the winter months, Michigan runs on propane.
We have the highest rate of residential propane consumption in the U.S., with much of that usage coming from residents in the northern Lower Peninsula and Upper Peninsula who rely on propane as a primary heating source.
The Enbridge Line 5 pipeline currently delivers more than half of Michigan's propane supply, but maintenance requirements and a proposed tunnel project to address environmental concerns over the crude oil it transports under the Straits of Mackinac may lead to service outages in the coming years.
Even the slightest hiccup to our propane supply chain could lead to shortages and price hikes for consumers. This isn't a hypothetical scenario, either. It happened in 2014 when a confluence of environmental factors increased propane usage in the Midwest and put supply and demand into a state of flux. Now, every year as winter approaches, concerns about propane supply materialize throughout Michigan and those who rely on it to survive.
At the minimum, a dependable "Plan B" propane-distribution infrastructure is needed in Michigan — one that eliminates the need for propane suppliers to turn to out-of-state markets and long-distance propane transport via truck or rail.
Remarkably, the perfect solution for Michigan's propane-distribution conundrum may already exist in the form of an idle, steel-coated, 225-mile-long pipeline constructed by Shell Oil Company in 1973.
Running from Michigan's largest propane storage facility in Marysville — about an hour northeast of Detroit — to the pipeline's northwestern terminal in Kalkaska, the pipeline has a perfect safety record and is capable of transporting 500,000 gallons per day to propane-dependent areas of the state. Converting the pipeline into a statewide propane artery will involve reversing its flow from south to north and conducting inspection and maintenance procedures with state-of-the-art technology.
The beauty of this project, dubbed the Michigan Express Pipeline, is in its simplicity — as well as its potential to go above and beyond the sheer need for an alternative propane delivery solution in Michigan. Because it repurposes an existing infrastructural asset, the project represents significant logistical and environmental benefits.
Since the Michigan Express Pipeline does not involve costly or complicated construction, it will greatly minimize environmental impact during the development phase compared to construction of a brand-new pipeline. That logistical simplicity also means that the pipeline can be operational in less than a year, whereas construction and safety inspections for a new pipeline of its length would take years to complete.
The environmental benefits continue with the pipeline's role of transporting propane and propane only. Propane is a clean energy source as designated by the 1990 Clean Air Act, and any leak or spillage would not be harmful to the soil, air, or water. Propane converts to a non-toxic vapor as soon as it encounters air, and its high combustion temperature provides additional safety benefits.
Ultimately, the Michigan Express Pipeline is a reminder that the success of the clean energy revolution will require far more than sustainable and renewable fuel sources. It will require an infrastructure that is equally eco-friendly. From processing to storage to transportation, the backbone of the clean energy industry will need to reduce environmental harm at every step of the supply chain. By "recycling" an existing pipeline that has been dormant for years, Michigan can address high statewide demand for clean energy quickly, safely and with minimal impact on the environment.

When are World Cup squads announced for Qatar 2022? Deadline for roster reveals
The 2022 FIFA World Cup is just around the corner, with the first match to be played on Sunday, November 20.
Before the players take the pitch, however, all eyes will be on the managers as they select their squads for the tournament in Qatar. The first deadline for the expanded preliminary squad list is Friday, October 21.
The final 26-man roster will have to be selected from the 35-55 player list submitted to FIFA. That deadline is set for November 14, which is the Monday before the World Cup begins.
Many teams may opt not to announce their expanded squads to avoid weeks of public debate around the final November cuts and potential controversy around particular selections. While Poland have already announced their squad, teams like the USA, Canada, and even favorites Brazil will wait until closer to the November deadline.
MORE: Which nations have qualified for Qatar 2022?
When are World Cup rosters announced?
All 32 participating nations have two key deadlines to meet when it comes to sharing official squad lists: Oct. 21 and Nov. 14.
Friday, Oct. 21: Release list of 35-55 players (four GKs).
Sunday, Nov. 13: Last domestic league matchday before players are released.
Monday, Nov. 14: Final 26-man squads to be submitted to FIFA.
Tuesday, Nov. 15: FIFA to publish final 26-man squad lists.
Most national teams are expected to announce their World Cup squad in the four weeks before the tournament starts. Some nations could make two separate announcements: one for their 55-man release list, and another for their 26-player final list, though the first one is not required.
Each country will manage their official announcements on their own timeline as long as they meet the official FIFA deadlines of submitting an expanded release list (35-55 players) by Friday, October 21, and a final 26-man squad by no later than Monday, November 14.
It's been reported by The Telegraph that Gareth Southgate will name the final England squad on October 21. The USA's 26-man roster will be announced at an event in New York City on November 9.
Expect most other nations to confirm their squads in between these two dates with a couple of stragglers potentially waiting until the final weekend.
When is the deadline for World Cup squads?
The 55-player release list must be submitted to FIFA by Friday, October 21. FIFA will not be making these lists public, and it is up to each nation to publish them should they so desire.
All 32 teams must decide their final 26-player squads for the World Cup by no later than Monday, November 14. FIFA will make these final lists public before the tournament begins.
Given the possibility of injuries or COVID-19 infections, each team is able to replace players up to 24 hours before their first match.
However, any potential replacement has to come from a nation's initial release list of players which FIFA recently increased from 35 to 55.

This is an increase from 23-player squad sizes for recent men's World Cup tournaments, and it gives teams extra flexibility given the World Cup is taking place in the middle of an extra congested European club season. It also helps in the case of potential COVID-19 cases.
Teams are also now allowed to have up to 15 players on their bench for matches with a maximum of five substitutions allowed to be made during a game.

ta��s chef Liu Wena��s day off but hea��s graciously agreed to put off his exploration of Phoenix MarketCity to chat with me. The 27-year-old from Beijing moved to Chennai three months ago to head the Chinese kitchen at ITC Grand Cholaa��s Pan Asian. The restauranta��s menu is having an overhaul and hea��s come from ITC Dwaraka to add Sichuan and Hunan flavours to the new menu here. a�?Sichuan is spicy and has many different flavours. Hunan is spicier still,a�? he grins, while chef Ashish Singh, who heads Pan Asian, delights in some gentle ribbing of his colleague. Wen is learning English, so communication can sometimes be a matter of charades or Google translate, but the common language of cooking frequently takes over.
Meanwhile, Singh draws our attention to the overhauled sushi and sashimi menu, with fish coming directly from Japan and details real foodies would care for a�� like upgrading to the premium koshihari rice and sourcing their chillies from Sichuan. Having also worked with Wen on fine tuning existing dishes, he recommends the range of dim sum, lobster in XO sauce and roast leg of lamb from the Chinese menu, and the wasabi prawns and grilled Chilean seabass from the Japanese menu. New ice creams and sorbets have been added, and we love the raspberry with black pepper ice cream and the mango and chilli, as well as the beetroot and ginger sorbets.


The Ohio State field hockey team (7-6; 0-3 Big Ten) shut out the Pacific Tigers (4-9; 1-1 NorPac), 2-0, Sunday at Grant Field in Iowa City, Iowa. Buckeye freshman Yesenia Luces and sophomore Florencia Stier each notched a goal to give OSU the victory.
In the first 35 minutes of action the Scarlet and Gray jumped out to an early lead when Stier (So., Buenos Aires, Argentina/Washington) deflected the ball into the backboard off of a pass from teammate Cammie Trainer (Sr., Hudson, Ohio/Hudson) 1:20 minutes into the game. Luces (Fr., Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago/St. Joseph's Convent) followed with an unassisted goal at the 17:37 mark. The Buckeye defense also stepped up, limiting the Tigers to one shot in the first half.
Yielding only two shots and two penalty corners in the second half, Ohio State maintained its 2-0 lead, thus securing the win.
Buckeye goalie Lindsay Williams (Jr., Harrisburg, Pa./Susquehanna Township) recorded two saves, while Tiger goalkeeper Kim Myers had three. OSU registered seven shots to Pacific's three. Ohio State and Pacific were statistically even with six penalty corners a piece.
Ohio State returns to North Turf Field for its final home game of the 2004 season against Northwestern. The Buckeyes and the Wildcats will meet at 1 p.m. Saturday in Columbus. As the last home contest, seniors Lucy Clayton, Meg Lake, Deen Rebstock, Laura Rosenwinkel and Cammie Trainer will be honored prior to the game.

2012 Iditarod » Mushers » Colleen Robertia
Colleen Robertia
Hometown: Kasilof, Alaska
Website: http://www.rogueskennel.com
Colleen Robertia, 35, was born and in Pennsylvania and raised in Massachusetts. She received her B.S. degree in 1998 in New York, with a major in Environmental Biology and a minor in African Studies. She then worked as a zookeeper caring for threatened and endangered species of large hoof stock (elephants, rhinos, giraffe, antelope) and big cats (lions, leopards, jaguars and cheetahs) in Georgia for the Wildlife Conservation Society and then for the Jacksonville Zoo in Florida. She says, "We quit our jobs at the zoo to thru-hike the 2,168 mile Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. It was a period of deep introspection. We figured out what was important to us in life and moved to Alaska in 2002. She says "I've always enjoyed wildlife, wild places, and wild people. Alaska offered all three so I moved here!"
For the last nine years, she has worked as a counselor for emotionally disturbed youth. "Since I started mushing, I've made it my goal to prove that year-round excellent treatment, diet and veterinary care are the hallmarks of success for anyone working with not just sled dogs, but all dogs. I'm a veteran of the two toughest and – at 1,000 miles each – longest sled dog races in the world: the Iditarod and Yukon Quest. I've also competed in dozens of 200-300—mid-distance races around the state of Alaska, earning first place finishes in several of them, including most recently the 2010 Gin Gin 200. In addition I was presented with the Humanitarian Award by the race veterinarians and judges for my excellent dog care. I am a four-time recipient of this award from various races, and over the years have also received awards for "Sportsmanship" and "Spirit" of tough self-reliance. I take pride in my accomplishments since not only do I train my dogs while maintaining a year-round full-time job, but I also run dogs taken in from animal shelters or given to me by other mushers after not working out in their kennels for various reasons. In the summer, I free run my dogs on the beach, hike with them in the mountains and swim with them in nearby ponds. In winter I develop and adhere to a rigorous conditioning and training regime to transform seemingly ordinary dogs into canine athletes of the highest caliber. All the dogs in my kennel have a home for their whole life, and I work hard to better the understanding of sled dog care, including most recently taking part in a comprehensive study of Alaskan huskies with congenital laryngeal paralysis (a.k.a. wheezer disease). Working closely with veterinarians I provided information to pedigree analyses, DNA samples from my dogs for genetic investigations, and allowed two of my dogs to receive corrective throat surgery, one of which will be in training for this Iditarod as a result of the procedure. Annually I strive to prove that it is hard work, perseverance and canine compassion that are a winning combination. I'm hoping to continue spreading my humanitarian message by further improving my success with my dogs during the 2011-2012 racing season, and I welcome any financial or in-kind support."
A member of both that Iditarod Official Finishers Club and the Yukon Quest Official Finishers Club, Colleen is married to Joseph Robertia. She enjoys long-distance backpacking, camping, cooking, gardening, and writing angry letters to the government.

After my students took their second exam yesterday, I lectured on cyberpunk to accompany their readings: William Gibson's "Burning Chrome" and Bruce Sterling's "Preface" to Mirrorshades. I talked about its historical and cultural moment, proto-cyberpunk examples in the SF genre, and the movement itself. In particular, I contextualized the cyberpunk movement in terms of postmodernism and post-industrial society. We ran out of time while I was talking about Gibson's contributions to the development of the cyberpunk movement. Besides my enjoyment of talking about cyberpunk, I was happy that my former professor Dr. Carol Senf was in attendance to observe my teaching.
Today, we watched the William Gibson and Tom Maddox penned episode of The X-Files, "Kill Switch." Released approximately 16 years after "Burning Chrome" in 1998, it is one of the best examples of cyberpunk in a visual medium–especially in the fact that it takes place in the here-and-now instead of the near future.
Then, I lectured on The X-Files and cyberpunk film/television before returning to my notes on Gibson, Bruce Sterling, and Pat Cadigan.
After the lecture, I launched into a retrocomputing demonstration with emulation and my personal collection of resurrected computer gear. I showed my students how to use the http://www.virtualapple.org website to see what cutting edge computing looked like in the early 1980s. Most of my students were born in the early to mid-1990s, so I wanted them to experience first hand how much extrapolation was being done on the part of the cyberpunks and Gibson in particular (of course, telling them about his Hermes 2000 typewriter and its celluloid keys and his recollection of getting inspiration for the cyberspace deck from the Apple IIc–something that his memory likely colored due to the fact that the IIc was released the same year as Neuromancer). Also, I brought in an Apple Powerbook 145 with Gibson's Voyager Company ebook of the Sprawl trilogy pre-loaded and a Pentium-I PC with old software including Neuromancer (for DOS), Star Wars: Dark Forces (DOS), and the Star Trek Interactive Technical Manual (Windows). I took the U-shaped sheet metal case off my PC so that they could see the insides.
I had to lug everything across campus in my carry-on sized suitcase with the PC strapped to the handle with nylon straps. I felt like Case in Neuromancer returning from his shopping expedition.
Tomorrow: Taiwanese SF and review for the third exam.


The popularity of solar cell has been on the rise over the past few years. In order to be the substitute the fossil fuels, the energy production cost from solar cells must be reduced further. A lot of effort has been made by the scientific community to produce cheap and green energy from solar cells. High absorption coefficient and cost effective deposition technique have made polycrystalline CdTe a suitable applicant for thin-film solar cell technology. On the other hand, bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells based on blends of conjugated polymers (P3HT) and fullerene derivatives (PCBM) have shown great potential to produce efficient organic solar cells.
Low availability of Te and need for enhancement of deposition speed influence to reduce the CdTe absorber layer. However, the overall cell efficiency of CdTe/CdS thin-film solar cell deteriorates unpredictably when the absorber width is reduced to sub-micron level. Deterioration of charge transport properties and their effects on voltage-dependent charge collection in submicron CdTe solar cells are believed to be responsible for this detrimental current-voltage. An analytical model for voltage-dependent photocurrent has been proposed in this thesis, considering partial depletion of the absorber and both electron and hole drift and diffusion in the depleted region and field free region, respectively, by solving continuity equations with proper boundary conditions. Exponential photon absorption and actual solar spectrum are considered to compute the photocurrent densities at entire output voltages. The results of the analytical model are verified by the 2D Taurus Medici device simulator. The model is also compared with recently published experimental results on ultra-thin CdTe solar cells in order to determine the carrier transport properties (defects and carrier lifetimes) and effective doping concentrations.
The efficiency of bulk heterojunction organic solar cells is mostly controlled by the dissociation of bound electron and hole pairs (EHPs) and charge carrier transport properties after dissociation. An analytical model has been developed considering both drift and diffusion of charge carrier to examine the relative effects of EHP dissociation and charge collection on the current-voltage characteristics. The effects of annealing on carrier transport properties are also examined. The theoretical model is also verified by the published experimental data.

88,000 Bluetooth Speakers Recalled for Batteries That Could Explode
ECOXGEAR is recalling 88,000 EcoBoulder Bluetooth speakers because the batteries may explode and send debris flying. According to a news report and a recall notice posted by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the company has so far received five reports of the speakers bursting. In two cases, the shrapnel was blamed for property damaged. But, there have yet to be any reports of injuries.
Details of the Recall
The recalled speakers are colored black with a rubber slip mat on top. Some versions have a brightly colored accent around the front speaker and a matching rubber slip mat. Each unit is about 20 inches tall and 15 inches wide. Users can find the model number inside a storage compartment on the left side of the speaker. The company said it sold about 88,000 speakers nationwide between 2016 and 2018.
The speakers were sold in stores such as Costco from October 2016-January 2017. They were sold at Academy Sports, Cabela's, Home Depot, Best Buy, and Amazon.com from January 2018-December 2018 for about $180. If you own these speakers, you can contact the manufacturer to receive a free replacement battery. For more information, call 800-903-9664.
Product Liability Issues
Based on this news report, it appears that the batteries from the speakers could explode and send shrapnel flying around. This type of situation has the potential to cause major injuries or even injuries that could prove deadly. Flying shrapnel has the potential to cause eye injuries that could result in loss of vision, lacerations that could cause significant blood loss or even fatal wounds. We have seen examples of horrific injuries from defective products such as the case of Takata airbags. The Takata airbag cases involved defective airbag inflators that caused airbags to explode that then sent shrapnel to fly inside the vehicle compartment.
If you or a loved one has been injured as a result of a dangerous or defective product, you may be able to seek compensation for damages such as medical expenses, lost income, hospitalization, cost of rehabilitation, pain and suffering and emotional distress. Plaintiffs in such cases must prove that the product was defective; that they were injured as a result of the defect; and that they suffered damages and losses as a result of the defective product. An experienced product defect lawyer will be able to help you better understand your legal rights and options.

Q: How to configure -D arguments in Eclipse I am trying to run maven test and TestNG execution. I need to pass some config values to pom.xml and when I execute from command like using the -D flag, it is working. Now how can I add these values in Eclipse ?
My command line argument is like -DUSERNAME=username and in pom.xml I am getting it as
<systemPropertyVariables>
    <username>${USER_NAME}</username>
</systemPropertyVariables>

Now without specifying any run configurations, when I try to execute as TestNG and maven test it is showing an error which states Reference to undefined variable USERNAME. I tried adding envirnment variables in eclipse, but it is not working.

A: if you go to your run configuration in Eclipse, there is a tab called Arguments where you can specify Program Arguments or VM Arguments

Q: Web2py: Pass a variable from view to controller How can I pass a JavaScript variable from the view to Python in controller? I don't want to use request.vars or request.args, because that would allow to user to give arbitrary parameters for the action by typing it into the address bar.
Example view:
<button onclick='myFunction();'>Execute</button>
<script>
    function myFunction();{
        var value = calculateValue();
        //pass value to my_action
        window.location = 'my_action';
    }
</script>

Example controller:
def index():
    return dict()

def my_action():
    #retrieve passed variable
    #handle the variable
    #...
    redirect(URL('index'))

A: You could make an Ajax call:
<script>
    function myFunction();{
        var value = calculateValue();
        ajax('{{=URL('default', 'my_action')}}' + '?value=' + value, [], ':eval');
    }
</script>

Followed by a client-side redirect once the Ajax response is returned:
def my_action():
    value = request.vars.value
    # handle the variable
    redirect(URL('index'), client_side=True)

Note, however, that even with this method, someone could still make a manual request to /default/my_action?value=some_value to send arbitrary data to your function (of course, they would have to be a little more technically savvy to do so, as the above URL would never appear in the browser address bar for them to observe -- they would have to inspect your code or watch the network traffic to figure out what request to make).
In general, if you are calculating a value in the browser and then submitting it to the server via an HTTP request, there is no way to prevent a knowledgeable attacker from submitting some arbitrary data rather than the value calculated by your Javascript code. Your best bet is to instead focus on doing some server-side validation of the input data, or move the calculation to the server (though presumably the calculation is based on some input that must ultimately come from the browser and therefore be validated in some way).

Scottish Independence within the EU – with a Scandinavian Slant
Darling, I am NOT an ethnic nationalist!
Looking forward on a day of sadness
What does it mean to be Scandinavian?
Union Jacks and Scottish accents
International support for Scottish independence
featured Quebec SNP Yes campaign
Not nationalists, separatists or secessionists, but sovereigntists

québec libre, a photo by faustineclavert on Flickr.
Members of the SNP are routinely called nationalists, and the same word is often applied to everybody in the wider pro-independence movement, although Westminster Unionists also like to call us separatists, and international (mainly American) observers occasionally describe us as secessionists.
Of course we're nationalists, but civic ones, which isn't really the primary meaning of "nationalist" in most other countries. This sometimes confuses No campaigners, who at times say things like "I can't vote Yes because I'm an internationalist", although most Yes people have a very international outlook. (In fact I'm often surprised by the number of people in the SNP and in Yes Scotland who have either got family abroad or have lived outwith Scotland for a long time).
Of course we're separatists, insomuch as we want to be ruled by a parliament that is separate from Westminster rather than subordinate to it, but we're very happy to share a lot of laws and institutions with the rUK, with Europe and with the wider world.
Of course we're secessionists to a certain extent, given that it's to be expected the rUK will be more similar to the UK than Scotland will, simply because Scotland is so small in comparison, and because most of the shared institutions are located in London. However, we tend to think of Scottish independence as putting an end to the 1707 Act of Union, which was a treaty uniting two sovereign countries, so we believe we're dissolving a union rather than seceding from it.
Sometimes I just wish people on both sides would agree to call the Yes side sovereigntists, which seems to be the preferred term in Quebec, because that's exactly what we are. The Yes side is united by the belief that Scotland should be a sovereign nation again.
Addendum (11/04/14): Wee Ginger Dug wrote this today: "By the way, it's far easier to express some political concepts in Spanish than in English. In Spanish you don't constantly have to have annoying arguments about all independence supporters being nationalists and just the same as Hitler. Spanish has the useful word independentista – which means a person who supports the right to self determination, and nationalism doesn't come into it. English just has the word "nationalist". Unfortunately the English version, independentist, makes you sound like a tooth puller for independence, or someone who does freelance fillings."

"rUK" gets on my nerves. Given that England is 91% of rUK you might as well just say "England" (evil grin … )
Thomas Widmann
"rUK" is a useful acronym. It's less offensive than "fUK" ("former UK") and more practical than "EWNI".
It's a bureaucratic acronym. It's like calling Canada and Mexico 'rNA' (rest of North America).
No, I don't agree — they never left North America. The useful thing about "r" is that is can mean either "rest of" or "remaining". Anyway, what would you prefer to call the Sovereign State of the Kingdom of England Including Wales United with Northern Ireland?
United Kingdom of England and Northern Ireland. Shortened to UK …
Wales is a principality of the Kingdom of England for state-naming purposes.
Except that NI isn't a kingdom. Anyway, while this might work from 2016 onwards, we clearly need an abbreviation that distinguishes the current UK from the UK-minus-Scotland. What would you prefer?
It was part of the former Kingdom of Ireland until the Act of Union in 1800. It could revert to that status so that the UK can still be the UK.
Henry VIII was the first king of England who was also King of Ireland.
Melissa Murray
I like sovereignists, but I suspect it's too positive for the Better Together folk to use. The only tool they have is negativity, once they give that up they are done.
Southern Britain?
The nation formerly known as the UK. 😉 (probably helps to be a Prince fan to get that one)
"United Kingdom of England and Northern Ireland" works well enough for me.
So you can continue to call the country that's left, the UK.
Hmmm, perhaps we could learn from EU jargon. So distinguish EU before and after the various enlargements, it's common to attach the number of member states. So the original EU was EU-6, when the UK joined (with Ireland and Denmark) it became EU-9, and it's currently at EU-28. So we could call the current UK "UK-4" and the UK without Scotland "UK-3". Would that work?
Yes that works for me.
Doesn't it bother you that it sounds like we're counting down to "UK-1"? 😉
No because UK-1 is England …
Not that bothered about what Wales or NI might do in future. I lived in Monmouthshire (not really Wales) but I don't have the same attachment as I do to Scotland.
BTW I like 'Sovereigntist' …
Personally I'm not bothered what they call themselves. It's up to them. I'm just glad I'll be living in an independent Scotland.
Indeed, Melissa! We just need a name for the country until they come up with a name for themselves.
