Fresh air becomes rarer in city
Air Quality Index nosedives by 24 pc between 2011 and 2015; vehicles, Metro construction activity to blame

BENGALURU: Even before the onset of Deepavali and the expected increase in air and noise pollution levels, the diminishing quality of air in Bengaluru over the last five years is a clear cause for concern.
The Air Quality Index nosedived by 24 per cent in the period from 2011 to 2015, reveal data released by the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board last week.
Of the eight areas taken for assessment during the period, the air content assessed in ITPL area, Mysuru Road, Peenya Industrial Area and Victoria Hospital have revealed a high presence of the pollutant PM10 (particulate matter) in 2015. This is way above what was recorded in these areas in 2011.
PM refers to fine dust which is less than 10 microns and is responsible for breathing problems in adults. "PM coats the lungs and causes respiratory infections, persistent cough and throat irritation as well as aggravates asthma," said a top official.
The increase in PM has ensured that the City is pushed into a 'moderate zone' in terms of air quality from the 'satisfactory zone' that existed during 2011.
Speaking to Express, S Nanda Kumar, Chief Environmental Officer, KSPCB, said, "Almost 50 per cent increase in the number of vehicles in the City during this period as well as the construction works that took place in many areas because of Namma Metro and other infrastructure projects are responsible for the AQI taking such a hit." From 42 lakh vehicles in 2011, the number has zoomed to over 64 lakh.
However, the positive aspect is that due to the popularity of Metro trains after the underground corridor was inaugurated on April 30, the pollution levels in Mysuru Road and Krantiveera Sangolli Rayanna Railway Station area have dipped, as per statistics released last month.
One heartening aspect revealed during the five-year assessment is that the levels of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide in all the areas assessed have gone down considerably. These two gaseous emissions go down when there is usage of LPG instead of diesel in vehicles and when there are stringent vehicle emission standards.
The only area which shows reduced pollutants compared to the rest is Saneguruvanahalli near Basaveshvara Nagar. "This is a residential area and that accounts for the reduced presence of pollutants when compared to the other areas taken for assessment. The same cannot be applied to other residential areas in the City though," said Kumar.

Q: Chern character of ideal sheaf of non-smooth conic $\newcommand{\oh}{\mathcal{O}} \newcommand{\ch}{\mathrm{ch}} \newcommand{\Hom}{\mathrm{Hom}} \newcommand{\Ext}{\mathrm{Ext}}$Let $i : C \hookrightarrow X$ be a non-smooth conic in a smooth projective threefold $X$. I'm trying to find the Chern character $\ch(I_C)$ where $I_C$ is the ideal of $C$.
I know that for a smooth conic, we have $\ch(I_C)=(1,0,-2L,0)$ where $L$ is the class of a line, essentially by Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch and being able to compute the cohomology groups $H^i(X, I_C)$ because $C \cong \mathbb{P}^1$.
For a non-smooth conic (either reducible, i.e. union of two transversal lines; or non-reduced, i.e. $C_{\mathrm{red}} = L$ a line) however, I'm not entirely sure what the cohomology groups $H^i(X, I_C)$ are. I've taken cohomology of the short exact sequence $0 \to I_C \to \oh_X \to i_* \oh_C \to 0$ which gives the long exact sequence
$$ \begin{align} 0 & \to H^0(X, I_C) \to \mathbb{C} \to H^0(X, i_* \oh_C) \\
&\to H^1(X, I_C) \to 0 \to H^1(X, i_* \oh_C) \\
&\to H^2(X, I_C) \to 0 \to 0 \to \cdots \end{align} $$
Here I've used $H^i(X, i_* \oh_C) \cong H^i(C, \oh_C)$ and that this cohomology vanishes for $i > \dim(C)=1$ (Grothendieck). I've also used that $H^i(X, \oh_X)$ is $\mathbb{C}$ for $i=0$ and $0$ else.
So my question essentially becomes: how does one compute the cohomologies $H^i(X, i_* \oh_C)$ for $i=0,1$ in the non-smooth case, and how to interpret the resulting sequence $ 0 \to H^0(X, I_C) \to \mathbb{C} \to H^0(X, i_* \oh_C) \to H^1(X, I_C) \to 0$?
Thanks.
Edit: I think I recall reading somewhere that for any conic, $H^1(C, \oh_C)=0$ (but I still don't know how to prove this?). If this is the case, then regardless of what $H^i(X, I_C)$ are for $i=0,1$ (I'd still be interested to know though), they'd have to be of equal dimension (by dimension counting the long exact sequence in cohomology). Then if $\ch(I_C)=(1,0,-2L, w)$, we have $\chi(I_C)  = w = h^0(X,I_C)-h^1(X,I_C) = 0$ which would mean that for any conic $C$, $\ch(I_C)=(1,0,-2L,0)$. Is this correct?

A: To compute the cohomology of $\mathcal{O}_C$ one can use the exact sequence
$$
0 \to \mathcal{O}_C \to \mathcal{O}_{L_1} \oplus \mathcal{O}_{L_2} \to \mathcal{O}_P \to 0
$$
for $C = L_1 \cup L_2$, where $P$ is the intersection point of the lines and the maps are induced by the restriction of functions, and the exact sequence
$$
0 \to \mathcal{O}_L(-1) \to \mathcal{O}_C \to \mathcal{O}_L \to 0
$$
for $C$ being the double line $L$.
Anyway, the Chern character of $C$ does not depend on the type of $C$.

Q: How is Lagrange's $2\sqrt{D}$ bound on partial denominators proven for periodic regular continued fractions of quadratic irrationals For the quadratic surd:
$$
\zeta = \dfrac{P + \sqrt D}Q
$$
the wikipedia article on periodic continued fractions mentions that Lagrange proves that the largest partial denominator of a regular continued fraction for $\zeta$ is less than $2\sqrt D$.  I also note that for this continued fraction:
$$
\sqrt D = [a_0;\overline{a_1,a_2,\dots a_2,a_1,2a_0}]
$$
and
$$
2a_0 = 2\lfloor\sqrt D\rfloor < 2\sqrt D
$$
which would seem to be a clue to the bound, as $2a_0$ is close to but less than the bound.  However, that pattern is only shown for $\sqrt D$, not for quadratic surds in general.  So how was this bound derived and proven by Lagrange?  I haven't found anything pertinent on Google or other math sites explaining this.
Edit
In light of the fact a large $P$ would seem to disconnect the size of $a_0$ from the size of $2D$, I'm going to assume that Wikipedia stated this poorly, and was only making a statement about $\sqrt D$.  In that case, how is the $2\sqrt D$ bound proven for $\sqrt D$?

Small kidney stones can be completely symptom-free and are passed out without the individual being aware they were ever there. Larger kidney stones may cause symptoms if they get stuck in the kidneys or ureter or if they become infected.
Severe pain in the back or side of the abdomen.
Pain is occasionally also felt in the groin.
Pain may last for a few minutes, through to several hours.
A burning sensation on going to the toilet.
An urge to urinate more regularly.
The kidneys are two small oval-shaped organs which are responsible for removing waste products such as excess fluids, urea, and ammonium from the blood. These waste products are then passed out of the kidneys via the ureter to the bladder, where they are then excreted as urine. The kidneys are located on either side of the spine, around the mid-back, just below the rib cage.
Kidney stones are quite a common condition, which is more prevalent in men between the ages of 30 and 60. Severe kidney stone pain (requiring treatment) is experienced by up to 20% of men.
Hereditary – kidney stone run in families.
Being bed-bound or very inactive.
Intestinal problems such as Crohn's disease.
A high protein, low fibre diet.
Previous kidney or urinary infections.
Taking certain medications such as aspirin, antacids, calcium and vitamin D supplements.
Kidney stones can usually be diagnosed by a Doctor using your symptoms and medical history alone. Occasionally imaging techniques such as MRI, CT scan or diagnostic ultrasound may be used to confirm the diagnosis.
Treatment of kidney stones depends on the size of the stones in question. Small stones can usually be passed in the urine, although this may still be painful. Your Doctor may prescribe painkillers or even administer painkilling and anti-sickness injections.
You will usually be sent home to wait for the stones to pass. In this instance, you should rest and make sure you drink plenty of fluid. You may be asked to try to collect any stones from your urine. You can do this by urinating through a gauze or other material such as a stocking.
This is the more common form of treatment for stones up to 20mm. It involves either x-rays or ultrasound to pinpoint the stone(s) followed by a shock wave of energy to break the stone up. This may require more than one treatment and can be uncomfortable and so often a local anesthetic is administered.
This technique is used for larger stones or in cases where the patient is overweight. A small incision is made in the back and a thin instrument called a nephroscope is inserted into the kidney where the stone is either removed or broken up. This is performed under general anesthetic.
This procedure is used if the stone is stuck in the ureter. A long, thin instrument called a ureteroscope is inserted up the Urethra (which connects your bladder to the outside), into the bladder and up the ureter. Here the stone can be either removed, lasered or broken up with ESWL so that the smaller pieces can be passed naturally. This is also performed under general anesthetic.
Surgery is the last resort which is not frequently used. It would require a general anesthetic and an incision in the back to access the kidney and remove the stone altogether.
The exception to these forms of treatment is if the stone is a uric acid stone. These are softer than other kidney stones and so may dissolve. In this case, the patient is often recommended to drink a high volume of fluid and may be given medication to make the urine more alkaline, which should help the stone to dissolve.

Airbus, French exporters reel as U.S. tariffs loom in subsidy row
Home Financial news Airbus, French exporters reel as U.S. tariffs loom in subsidy row
Via Reuters Finance
PARIS/BRUSSELS (Reuters) – Shares in Airbus (AIR.PA) and French luxury goods exporters fell on Monday as the European Union acknowledged it may face U.S. tariffs in a long-running dispute over aircraft subsidies, part of an escalating tit-for-tat trade row.
A logo of Airbus is seen on a flag at Airbus headquarters in Blagnac, near Toulouse, France, February 14, 2019. REUTERS/Regis Duvignau
The World Trade Organization has approved a U.S. request to impose tariffs on European goods in the latest chapter of a dispute over aircraft subsidies that could lead to European reprisals, two people familiar with the case said.
The scope of the decision, which had been widely anticipated, is due to be announced in the week of Sept 30.
The EU's trade chief said the United States was likely to impose tariffs "quite soon".
The WTO has found that both Airbus and its U.S. rival Boeing received billions of dollars of harmful subsidies in a pair of cases marking the world's largest ever corporate trade dispute.
The EU and United States are now drawing up potential tariffs after the Geneva body also found neither side had adhered fully to its findings. But Washington is first in line to turn this into actual tariffs because its case is running nine months ahead.
Washington has sought permission to impose tariffs up to 100% on European goods worth $11.2 billion a year. These include aircraft and aerospace parts from Airbus host nations – Britain, France, Germany and Spain – as well a range of goods including wine, cheese and luxury goods from across the EU.

Exports of Airbus commercial helicopters could also be hit.
The final amount will depend on WTO arbitrators who presented their findings internally last week.
Washington must then draw from a broader list of EU products with a trade value of $25 billion a year that it has tapped for possible inclusion in the final list of any punitive tariffs.
Airbus jets and parts are likely to be hit first, whatever the size of the approved countermeasures, trade sources said.
Shares in Airbus, which relies on a flow of parts to feed an assembly line in Alabama, and which also counts U.S. airlines among its major customers for aircraft assembled at its main plants in Europe, fell 3.2%.
Luxury goods group LVMH (LVMH.PA) – whose products include Louis Vuitton handbags, Moet et Chandon champagne and Hennessy cognac – fell 3.5%. The United States represents just under a quarter of group revenue.
Hermes International (HRMS.PA) fell 1.5%.
SHIFTING BLAME
The potential exchange of tariffs stems from complaints filed well before the current spate of global trade tensions, but is coming to a head just as global markets are taking fright at trade friction dominated by a U.S.-China trade war.
On the transatlantic front, tensions have been brewing since the U.S. imposed steel and aluminum tariffs last year, while the United States has also threatened to impose car tariffs.
Both sides in the aircraft dispute have attempted to deflect blame for any further escalation by accusing the other of ignoring attempts to head off a trade war through negotiation.
In June, two U.S. sources told Reuters the United States would likely be open to talks on an enforceable mechanism allowing Airbus to receive government funding on commercial terms while addressing disputed Washington-state tax breaks for Boeing.

U.S. officials later said the EU had failed to show any interest in talks.
The EU, however, said on Monday it was Washington that stood in the way of a negotiated settlement.
Trade chief Cecilia Malmstrom said the EU had asked the United States in July to hold off trade sanctions and seek an agreement.
"Our view is that we have enough tariffs in the world as it is … The U.S. president likes to make deals so we have offered to try to make a deal to find a negotiated solution," EU Trade Commissioner Malmstrom told a briefing.
"So far, unfortunately, the U.S. has not said that they are willing to negotiate, at least not until they have imposed their tariffs, which they are likely to do quite soon," she said.
The EU trade chief said any EU-U.S. agreement could serve as a template for others to follow to create a level playing field. "We also know other big players in the world, such as Russia and China but also others, are also subsidizing their civil aircraft industry," she said.
Western officials who have tried to explore a compromise in the past believe any new funding agreement must set an example for China, whose own rapid aerospace growth with state backing is viewed as a worrying threat by the two Western giants.

Workplace injury claims death or severe physical injury
Workplace injury claims: death or severe physical injury
By: Bernadine Racoma
Every employee has legal rights in the workplace that protect them in case of physical injuries sustained while performing their job. Similarly, employers also have a legal responsibility to ensure that the workplace is a safe and healthy environment for everyone.
Nevertheless, accidents do happen. This may be through no fault of the employee, but they could be caused by negligence by the employer in enforcing sufficient health and safety standards.
Managing workplace injury claims requires a clear understanding of the obligations of the employer, as well as your rights as an employee. The particular circumstances of the incident may complicate or altogether change the nature of the claim.
Here are some issues to be aware of if you're considering filing a claim for severe workplace injury or death.
Severe injuries - compensation levels
Injuries sustained in a workplace accident are not only physically debilitating, but may also have emotional and financial implications for the employee. Apart from medical issues, severe injuries may have a long-term effect on your ability to work.
Injuries that have a long-term impact on a person's physical capacity will be compensated accordingly. The Judicial College provides guidance on the amount a successful claimant may be awarded, depending on the degree and type of physical injury.
For example, a hand injury that will fully recover within six months could attract compensation of up to £3,460, whereas an extremely severe injury to the hand leading to amputation or total loss of use could be awarded up to £160,600.
Time limits for filing a workplace injury claim
There is a time limit within which you may file a claim for a work-related injury. In the UK, the standard limit is three years from the time the accident occurred.
There are exceptions to this rule, such as if you develop a severe illness such as cancer due to prolonged exposure to harmful chemicals in the workplace. The symptoms for such conditions may manifest years after exposure.
In this situation, employees may still be entitled to file a claim for damages and compensation on receiving confirmation that the illness or injury is directly related to their previous workplace activity.
Workplace injuries resulting in an employee's death
The worst-case scenario of a workplace injury with legal implications is when negligence leads to an employee's wrongful death. Immediate family and dependents of the diseased may proceed in filing a claim against the business.
A successful wrongful death claim may lead to different types of compensation or payment. General damages specifically provide for income protection, and the suffering experienced by the family members of the deceased.
Apart from general damages, the victim's family or estate may also receive payment for funeral expenses, as well as any other costs incurred prior to the victim's death.
In more complex cases where the person dies intestate, the next step is to have a probate solicitor arrange the estate of the deceased.
Since arranging the estate and filing a claim for wrongful death are two separate procedures, hiring legal counsel based on location is practical and economical. For example, Bristol probate solicitors provide effective assistance to clients who also reside in Bristol.

...of the silvery moon...except this ain't June...just a Friday night shot of the rising moon over the rooftops.
the full moon that is seen nearest to the time of the autumnal equinox.
So I guess it's the remnant of 2016's harvest moon since the equinox happens this week on Thursday, September 22nd.
Either way it's been beautiful the last few nights...always amazes me to look up and realize we actually sent humans up there almost fifty years ago.
If you'd asked me on July 20, 1969 when Neil Armstrong did his "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" thing - which I watched as a 12 year old on Chebeague Island with my engineer dad who used to work for Thiokol in the 60's - I'd have told you we'd have colonized the moon by now. Fifty years? Plenty of time.
File that under the same heading as Back To The Future's vision of what 2015 would be like with flying skateboards, cars, etc.
So this weekend we called a truce on the Garage War...truth is we're winning and within the next couple of weeks we'll have a) junk removed b) expendable good stuff given away, and c) good stuff we're keeping put away and everything in its place.
Friday night we watched LA Confidential again, mainly to see Russell Crowe's dynamite portrayal of officer Bud White...Kim Basinger got best supporting actress, but Crowe stole the movie in my humble opinion.
Saturday we awoke to rain...I trekked to Allendale for breakfast with a friend, then Karen and I did the martinis and bikinis thing once Mr. Sun showed up in the afternoon.
...can't hold a candle to Casablanca.
Today flew by without getting much accomplished...thinking about putting in a vent free fire log set in our fireplace in the family room...drove to Watsons on 29th street where we bought the last one currently in our basement...and they don't sell them anymore.

Meet Velas: When Artificial Intuition Boosts Blockchain Capabilities
September 9, 2019 September 9, 2019 fadhil09
The crypto space is continuously expanding, and so is the number of blockchains. The abundance of projects might seem overwhelming at this point, but that doesn't mean that new players should be overlooked, as some of them seem to present innovative ideas that could actually push the industry further.
Enter Velas, a type of delegated Proof of Stake (dPoS) blockchain project and an ecosystem on which one can build projects and dApps, tokenize, as well as issue smart contracts practically with almost any cryptocurrency. Still sounds like something you've heard many times before? Here comes the twist: this blockchain is enhanced by Artificial Intuition (AI), so a substantial part of the governing is performed by a machine. Well, sort of. Let's have a closer look.
The Basics: AI and AIDPOS
Velas was founded in 2019 and is currently headquartered in Switzerland. It stands for Virtual Expanding Learning Autonomous System. In the industry where decentralization has yet to be fully implemented by any project regardless of its consensus model of choice, Velas takes a slightly different, newer approach. While drawing upon the DPoS concept, it lets AI be the judge and pick which delegates should govern its network. Moreover, the project aims to address the crypto's persisting scalability issue and strives to make the network more inclusive to delegators and block producers.
Although the project itself is new to the crypto market, it has a team of seasoned international specialists behind its back. It was founded by Alex Alexandrov, who is also the CEO of CoinPayments, the world's first and largest altcoin payment processing platform.
As mentioned above, the project largely revolves around Artificial intuition, but that doesn't mean that it solely controlled by some unpredictable robot. In the case of Velas, AI aims to function similarly to human consciousness, or, more specifically, its intuition — according to its creators, at least.
Thus, the consensus model is called AIDPOS (AI-Operated delegated Proof of Stake). As per the technical paper, each node in the blockchain forms its own dataset (or, in other words, a training sample) from the blockchain data. Then, based on this data, the genetic algorithm starts training by utilizing a matrix with random weights, and every next layer is learning from the previous one. The network trains itself before each block cycle until a 70% probability is obtained. After that, the matrix with the smallest error percentage gets loaded into the next era. That allows the network to continuously optimize and expand its efficiencies with AI, all the while imitating human intuition. Essentially, that means that the AI elects the network's block producers, evaluates the size and timing of those blocks, controls the network's tempo, etc. — all based on its trained algorithm.
Moreover, Velas takes precautions against 51% attacks and double-spend attacks by implementing a cycle-block every 24 hours, selecting the nodes who have the most stake to represent it. Thus, new blocks must be signed by the 80% of cycle-block nodes — which makes it illogical for intruders to break the system since they will have to own the whole network first in order to do it.
Governance Model: Staking and Rewards
So, as with other DPoS projects, verification of transactions is executed through "staking" (holding) coins on the network, but with some nuances. Validators will be compensated for staking and training the AI by being able to collect network fees over a period of time. The larger the position staked, the more VLX — the native utility token — is assigned. As a result, that PoS approach aims to incentivize sizable, long-term investments, while the AI algorithm ensures effective block producing and transacting, but also behaves as a reputation manager for stakers on the blockchain through evaluating their input and behavior.
VLX Token and Velas Wallet
The exact amount of VLX supply is 2,000,000,000, with 12.5% locked for the Velas Developer Fund and another 25% for private investors. VLX can reportedly be used to power smart contracts, conduct transactions, or pay fees on Velas Wallet at a 25% discount. In addition, VLX will be used as the primary trading coin for CoinPayments, and will provide 25% trading fee discount as well.
Indeed, the blockchain supports a secure multi-wallet technology which allows for seamless transactions with other blockchains. To achieve that, their wallet allows creation of public and private containers for all of the supported tokens, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, along with other popular cryptocurrencies such as EOS, XRP, and Monero. All containers can be restored from the original seed or private key associated with the Velas Wallet, according to the developers.
Battling Scalability
Finally, Velas claims that its blockchain has overcome the scalability issue, operating at a hefty 30,000 Tx/sec. That could be compared to VISA's levels of performance, while top cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are lagging far behind at 7 and 15 Tx/sec respectively (note it de-facto presents off-chain scalability for those slower tokens through its above mentioned multi-wallet technology).
Thus, to break one of the crypto's most long-standing curses, Velas blockchain once again makes the best of its AI, which basically clears the ledger from unnecessary workload, allowing either to accelerate or slow down the whole network depending on the functioning capacity. The high speed is also achieved thanks to Schnorr signatures — specific type of multi-signature that provides cryptographic proof when one wallet is owned by multiple parties.
Near-future Roadmap
The project is still on its private sale and is currently preparing to release its multisig wallet. Additionally, its VLX token is expected to get listed on major exchanges later in August.
Early next year, Velas is planning to go full-open source, release a hardware wallet, and launch by Q2 2020.
New era of blockchains?
Overall, Velas seems to be an advanced, highly technically project — which is hardly surprising, given that it actually attempts to add AI into the already-complicated world of blockchain.
If all goes according to plan and the project's neural network manages to train itself to effectively govern a blockchain network, we could be witnessing an entirely new generation of blockchains, the ones where decentralization is ensured by tamper-proof, impartial algorithms rather than biased parties.

Most of the current meters now support AST, says Diabetic Living diabetes educator Dr Kate Marsh. They come with a special attachment for your lancet device to enable you to obtain blood from other areas. These might be your arm, the base of your thumb or your thigh.
It's important to note that testing at alternative sites may give you results that are different from the blood glucose levels obtained from your fingertips. Why? Because the blood glucose levels in your fingertips show changes more quickly than those at alternative testing sites.
This means that AST is less accurate, particularly during times when your blood glucose level is changing more rapidly. These occasions might be after a meal, following exercise or when you're experiencing hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose levels).

While much has changed in the past four decades that I've been involved in youth ministry, the desperate need for quality discipleship has not. It All Starts Here acknowledges the fact that a student's spiritual journey isn't completed when they make the decision to follow Christ. IT ONLY STARTS THERE. As an experienced youth pastor, Jonathan walks students through the gospel and our basic beliefs so that we move students beyond the point of decision to a life of vibrant faith. This captivating and relationally-driven book serves as a dynamic and interactive resource for youth ministries looking to engage their new believers in what it means to truly follow Christ.
It All Starts Here is a brilliant resource for a youth ministry. This book is packed with lessons and insights that would take a student years to learn if all they did was come to church. It is really a "best of" and is packed with everything a youth pastor would hope a student would walk away knowing after 4 years of youth ministry, packed into a 31 day devotional.
It All Starts Here sheds light on the next steps and gives students a way of interpreting the many emotions and changes that come with making such an enormous life decision; it gives them the permission they are looking for to ask the difficult questions, while also providing ways of finding the answers. This book is vital for growing ministries that are looking for ways to disciple their new believers.
Working in youth ministry for the past 15 years, I have often struggled to know how to help students move into maturity in their faith. I am excited that Jonathan has tackled this problem head on. This is a resource that I will for sure put to use in my ministry.It All Starts Here is a thorough and practical look at beginning a journey into understanding what it means to follow Christ.
As a youth pastor it's hard to find material that will encourage a student's spiritual growth while also approaching the doubts they may be afraid to admit. Jonathan's book has the guts to ask the tough questions while still pointing students to the ultimate source of truth, God's word that works in us and through us. I definitely would recommend this book to students who want to grow in their faith and also those that are still looking for answers to their questions about faith and God.
Simple and easy to understand, It All Starts Here strategically lays a firm foundation for which students and new believers can start their journey of faith. Jonathan combines God's word with humor and his personal experiences to bring to life the core principles that so many need, yet so many have forgotten. An invaluable resource for every student pastor. Discipleship Starts Here!
The most important decision a young person can make is receiving Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. Too often we leave students at the altar after praying a salvation prayer without giving them the proper tools to help them to stand strong in their faith. It is more than a decision, its about a "real"ationship with Christ. Personal discipleship is the key to building a strong foundation and lasting faith.
It All Starts Here is real, practical and challenging. It encourages the reader to grow, mature and look more like Jesus. I love that there is also space in the book for the student to pause and think about what they've just read and journal it. What a great way to measure true growth!
I believe that in today's society we need to support and endorse those things for our students and families that are foundationally strategic for our lives. In other words, "Don't waste my time!" Jonathan Brooker's new book, It All Starts Here, definitely will NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! It is one of those timely foundational books that answers questions ALL of us need answered, and especially as we disciple new believers! I believe in truly walking with, and discipling, ALL who come into this amazing and priceless walk with God. Don't miss It All Starts Here as a life-changing opportunity to disciple.
Many student ministries today have become fairly effective in bringing students to a point of decision. Unfortunately, our efforts aren't always so effective in dealing with the "Now What?" for those just starting a spiritual journey. It All Starts Here provides a practical and helpful guide that moves new believers from decision to devotion. Great resource for youth pastors who are serious about making disciples.
Jonathan Brooker has given us a great resource to help new believers take off in their walk with God. I am excited to stock my shelf with these books for new believers. This book is an impressive fertilizer for new found faith.
Jonathan Booker loves students! Nothing could be more clear than the passion and vision behind his newest book, It All Starts Here. Jonathan takes this opportunity to break down simple biblical truths into understandable and memorable daily readings to bring a student to a new level of understanding and spiritual growth. As a youth ministry veteran of over 15 years I'm thrilled to see this resource be placed in the hands of today's generation. As a parent of a junior-high student I can't wait to have my son work through this material. Your students will be challenged to take ownership of their spiritual growth and reminded that it's so much more than a one time prayer or commitment, it's an every day journey.
It All Starts Here is a wonderful look at true discipleship. Through interactive reading and journaling, this book engages and challenges you to reflect and deepen your relationship with Jesus.
While designed for the newly committed Jesus follower, It All Starts Here is equally beneficial for those who have already been walking with Christ. It gives a refreshing reminder that following Jesus really is all about consistency in the basics.
Author of "Why is God so mad at me?"
I am so excited about the amazing new book, It All Starts Here. Finally a book that takes students and leaders to the next phase of Christianity in a thought provoking and yet personal manner! Jonathan Brooker has the insight and fortitude to tackle the challenging and relevant issues of being a believer both young and old. This book takes a believer past the initial encounter with Christ to an awesome level of maturity. It is absolutely what is needed today! I would have given anything to have had this book as a youth pastor and pastor of new believers! This book is sure to be an instant tool for discipleship and a classic to draw from for generations to come! Get this book and make disciples!
As someone who works with lost kids I've often been frustrated by the lack of resources that help move a student from a new relationship with Christ to a deep abiding one. It All Starts Here fills that gap and does it well. Jonathan has put together an experience that is relevant, practical and much needed. I highly recommend this to anyone who journeys with kids and wants to see them grow closer to the Father.
One of the greatest joys in ministry is watching someone come to Christ for the very first time; the second is then watching them grow in their relationship with Him. In order to the do the second, I am always looking for a great resource that I can put in a student's hand to help them on their faith walk. Jonathan has hit a home run with his new book, It All Starts Here. This is a great tool that I think will help grow many students and challenge them on their walk with Christ.
We have been looking for a practical and engaging resource for students to make their next steps after saying yes to Jesus. It All Starts Here is an excellent resource to put into the hands of students. We work to teach students that saying "yes" to following God is only the beginning of a life long journey in growing in our faith. As a busy youth pastor it is great to have a solid resource such as this to help students start on that journey.
Often we stop short of the Great Commission, "Go and make disciples." More believers would effectively disciple new believers if they had a practical tool they could use. It All Starts Here is designed to be that effective tool that is engaging and easy to use for anyone desiring to help young believers grow in Christ. This resource could be the difference maker that could help your students grow and become Disciples of Christ.
Our goal in student ministry must be to help youth own their walk and faith. It All Starts Here walks you through real questions asked in a real world resulting in real growth.
In Matthew 28 Christ commissioned His followers to make disciples and teach them to obey everything He commanded. It All Starts Here is a wonderful tool for students to use in laying lay a firm foundation and learning basic truths and principles of God's Word. This is a wonderful resource that will keep students from floundering who are just beginning a relationship with the Lord.
A teenager comes to know Jesus as their savior...then what? As a youth pastor, I've shuffled through various resources to help the student on his or her way in order to be discipled with the Gospel, and then I read It All Starts Here. I'm excited to see Jonathan answer the challenge from God to pen this great devotional for the new believing or young in their faith teenager. Stock up on it and have it ready for those students who God brings your way!
I have never found a theologically solid, engaging, and age-appropriate discipleship book that I can hand to new converts in my youth ministry - that they will actually want to read... Until now! It All Starts Here takes everything I wish I could convey to a young person who has just received Christ and lays it out in an easy to read and even comical digest. While I will continue to play my part in their discipleship from the pulpit, I am confident that, with this tool, the discipleship will continue at home. Students will WANT to turn the page and in doing so will be encouraged to keep learning and growing in their newly formed relationship with God.
As a youth pastor for 13+ years trust me when I say my friend, Jonathan Brooker, has nailed it on this one! To have a resource that walks through the next steps after accepting Christ is invaluable. To have one that walks through those steps while staying relevant and engaging is priceless! Get this book!!!
As a full time youth and young adult pastor for over 20 years I have found that the one major lack in resource areas is a simple-to-use, effective, and solid means of follow-up to a student who gives their heart and life to Christ. An effective follow-up system based on It All Starts Here will allow youth leaders to walk a new believer from a "fan of Christ" to a true, passionate, disciple of Christ. I highly recommend this great resource to be part of the follow up process as we teach students to "walk as Jesus did".
Jonathan Brooker is a normal guy that loves Jesus and students with all his heart. It All Starts Here is an overflow of that love. The world cries out to be discipled while Heaven commands us to make disciples. Sadly, we aren't sure how. This is a great resource to that question.
It All Starts Here is a thorough, funny, engaging, challenging, and biblical walk-through of what it means to follow Christ specifically designed for the new believer. No longer do youth pastors and other church leaders need to leave the new believer with the "now what?" question still lingering in their mind after they've made that important decision. With this resource you can know that they are walking through the gospel message and basic Christian beliefs on a 31-day journey that will cover the kind of topics that would take months of sermons to cover. Check it out today!

Mountain Home National Cemetery is located in the northeastern section of Tennessee in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains within the city limits of Johnson City. The cemetery is on the grounds of the Mountain Home Veterans Administration Center.
Originally known as the Mountain Home Branch of the National Asylum for Disabled Volunteered Soldiers, the facility was the product of sustained efforts by Tennessee Congressman Walter Preston Brownlow. In 1901 Congress approved a bill introduced by Brownlow to establish a national home in the Johnson City area. A designated board of managers chose a 450-acre site and commissioned New York architect J. H. Freedlander to design 36 French Renaissance-style buildings. The home opened Oct. 15, 1903. Five years later, special dispensation was granted to permit the interment of Congressman Brownlow in the Mountain Home cemetery. He and his wife occupy the only graves inside Monument Circle.
The Mountain Home Branch of the National Homes was the ninth, and last, of its kind funded by Congress to care for Union veterans of the Civil War. In 1973, it was transferred to the Veterans Administration and the home cemetery became a national cemetery.
The cemetery is part of the Mountain Home Branch-National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers National Historic Landmark district, designated on June 17, 2011.
This cemetery contains no monuments or memorials.
The Medal of Honor is the highest award for valor in action against an enemy force that can be bestowed upon an individual serving in the Armed Services of the United States. Recipients receive the Medal of Honor from the president on behalf of Congress. It was first awarded during the Civil War and eligibility criteria for the Medal of Honor have changed over time.
Recipients buried or memorialized here:
Sergeant Henry G. Buhrman (Civil War). He received the Medal of Honor while serving in the U.S. Army, Company H, 54th Ohio Infantry, for actions at Vicksburg, Mississippi, May 22, 1863. Buhrman died in 1906 and is buried in Section C, Row 2, Site 12.
Lieutenant Frederick Clarence Buck (Civil War). He received the Medal of Honor while serving in the U.S. Army, Company A, 21st Connecticut Infantry, for actions at Chapin's Farm, Virginia, on September 29, 1864. Buck died in 1905 and is buried in Section F, Row 1, Site 9.
Seaman Thomas Smith (Civil War). He received the Medal of Honor while serving in the U.S. Navy for actions on board the U.S.S. Magnolia, St. Marks, Florida, March 5-6, 1865. He died in 1905 and is buried in Section G, Row 1, Site 3.
Staff Sergeant Junior James Spurrier (World War II). He received the Medal of Honor while serving in the U.S. Army, Company G, 134th Infantry, 35th Infantry Division, for actions in northeastern France at Achain, November 13, 1944. He died in 1984 and is buried in Section HH, Row 15, Site 8.
More than half of VA's national cemeteries originated with the Civil War and many are closed to some burials. Other sites were established to serve World War veterans and they continue to expand. Historic themes related with NCA's cemeteries and soldiers' lots vary, but visitors should understand "Why is it here?" NCA began by installing interpretive signs, or waysides, at more than 100 properties to observe the Civil War Sesquicentennial (2011-2015). Please follow the links below to see the interpretive signs for Mountain Home National Cemetery.

Connolly's interest in education began to take root. "I was 14 when I taught swimming at Crystal Lake, and I knew then that I wanted a career in education." A standout in athletics, Connolly was recently inducted into her high school hall of fame for her performance in volleyball, basketball, lacrosse, and track, attributing her successes to the positive influence of her parents. Her late mother, Peggy, competed at Senior Olympic volley- ball tournaments, and her late father, Gerald, was her Little League coach. "They taught us many life lessons, like being kind to others, doing your best, and seizing opportunities when- ever you can." Her father was an electrical engineer for Boston Edison for 42 years while her mother worked as a crossing guard and as a receptionist at Newton-Wellesley Hospital, always choosing jobs that allowed her to be present for the children. "They couldn't pay for seven children to go to college, but what they gave us was the foundation and the confidence that we could do it," explains Connolly. Connolly went to Boston College as a double major in elementary and moderate special needs education, working in restaurants throughout her time there to pay her way, while playing varsity volleyball and lacrosse. After spending a year teaching in Compton, California, she remembers how the experience was "the first time I saw what abject poverty was and what an impact schools can have — or not — on children." She earned additional graduate and doc- toral degrees from Boston College in severe special education and curriculum and in- struction, respectively. Connolly also warmly recounts how her grandfather "preceded" her at Harvard where she received a graduate de- gree in administration, planning, and public policy. "He was an Irish immigrant who, upon arriving in this country, worked on the con- struction of Harvard Stadium." But perhaps the most impactful event both personally and professionally was the terror attacks of September 11th. Connolly's brother, Major David Scott Connolly, was an assis- tant district attorney in Suffolk County who re-enlisted in the Army after 9/11 and was later killed in Afghanistan. "It changed my life, and I now understand the true meaning of sacrifice. I feel more of a sense of urgency to take advantage of opportunities when they arise," says Connolly. "I try to do the best I can because you can't be sure of what's ahead, and it motivates much of the work that I do on behalf of children." While working on her graduate and doc- torate degrees, with the goal of one day becom- ing a superintendent, Connolly married Walter Devine and had two children. "Family has always been a priority to me, so I made sure that I was around to raise them, be their coach, or go to their games," recalls Connolly.

Murder mystery westerns don't come along every day, and while this one is kind of slow moving, it's still a great movie.
Dean Martin is cool and steady as the gambler who takes part in a game of five card stud that turns deadly. When he tries to stop the lynching of a cheating player, he's overpowered. Soon after the lynching, every one in the game is methodically murdered in the most inventive ways. One man is strangled with barbed wire, another is drowned in a flour barrel, etc. Dean spends the rest of the movie trying to figure out who's doing the killing.
While Dean is great, Roddy McDowall is fantastic as the sniveling brother of Dean's girlfriend. He's a mean, cowardly, lying weasel, and no one ever played a weasel better.
Yaphet Kotto is fine as the bartender, and Inger Stevens has a small, shining role as the local purveyor of tonsorial delights (a barber). Robert Mitchum comes into the film a little late; while he's straight and true as the scripture-spouting preacher who sweeps out the long abandoned church and begins hold services, you know he's hiding something.
All in all a fine film. Maybe a little too long, though; the whole movie doesn't amount to much more than enjoyable entertainment, but the actors and the acting in it make this really worth watching.
Robert Mitchum narrowly escaped being crushed by a falling camera during filming.

When the New York Yankees, considered by many to be "America's Team," hit the field for Spring Training this year, they'll do so with an extra layer of purification for themselves and fans.
As referenced in Spring Training Online, The Yankees' Steinbrenner Field and Tampa Sports Authority in Tampa Bay, Florida chose GreenTech Environmental's proprietary air purification system, Active Radiant Catalysis (ARC®) technology when they retrofitted the Spring Training's HVAC System in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
For many, the 2021 Spring Training season is the first real test of the re-opening of America. All over the country, people are anxious to resume normal activities and no activity is more American than Major League Baseball's Spring Training.
In places where large gatherings are occurring, air purification is a valuable tool. By replicating processes created by forces such as sunlight and rainstorms, GreenTech Environmental's ARC technology uses a combination of ultraviolet light, electrical charges, and the moisture in the air to create vaporized oxidation products. Combined with charged ions, these purification products continuously hunt down even the smallest particles which often pass through HEPA filters.
While the ARC HVAC upgrades are not the most noticeable by fans, Steinbrenner Field included them as part of an entire series of mitigation efforts aimed at keeping fans and players in a healthier environment.
"ARC HVAC technology really provides an extra layer of certainty for everyone at Steinbrenner Field," said Steven Haywood, M.D., a medical doctor, and former respiratory therapist and who advises GreenTech Environmental.
"Alone, no single mitigation effort is 100% effective at keeping bacteria, mold, and viruses out of our respiratory system. Staying healthy requires a multi-layered approach and ARC air purification is a clean technology that I'm comfortable using in my own home as part of an overall indoor air purification effort," continued Haywood.

Wessex Scene Interview New Lib Dem Leader Vince Cable
By Zach Sharif on	 July 30, 2017 Politics
Vince Cable became the new Liberal Democrat Leader on Thursday 20th July. The 74 year old former Secretary of State is greatly respected within the party, and hopes to be the man to start a successful rebuild after the Lib Dems' meteoric fall from grace since 2010. Wessex Scene interviewed the new leader just before his rally in Southampton at the start of his UK Tour.

What policies would you have to offer young people?
Starting from the top, I think the whole Brexit issue will affect young people for the rest of their lives. It's one of these moments in history when a country changes direction. It will have far-flung consequences which in my view are almost entirely negative. It will narrow the horizons of the country, making it more difficult to travel freely, to do collective things, and that will damage young people which is why the majority of them voted to remain.
We are the only Remain party, whereas Jeremy Corbyn and Theresa May are working together on this extreme form of Brexit. We're opposing that.
That's the first issue, the second is that out of the major parties we have the longest and deepest commitment to environmental issues, in fact on climate change we have quite a lot of common ground with the Green Party – I think that matters to young people.
Many young people didn't have a vote on Brexit. With that in mind, would you reduce the voting age?
Absolutely, yes. My party has long supported the idea of votes at 16. It's worked in Scotland very well, there's a lot of political engagement and it almost certainly had a lot of impact on the referendum. Despite all the complaints from older people, young people have engaged with politics in a very mature, constructive way.
It seems to me there is absolutely no good reason whatever why voting shouldn't be at 16.
Your plans to call for a second referendum following Brexit have been criticised by many, arguing that you are not respecting a democratic result. How do you respond to that?
If it was simply a re-run of the last one, then that would be correct. I said so at the time, I opposed the idea of rushing into a second referendum for exactly that reason. But what we're talking about is something completely different. What we're saying is that at the end of the process, when we know what's happening, when we know if the government have achieved a deal, when we know whether it's a good deal or a bad deal or no deal – at that point, the public should be allowed to pass a judgement on it.
We keep open the option of staying in the European Union, or going back into it, what I call 'exit from Brexit'. People have got to have that option.
What would be your industrial strategy to push the economy forward?
When I was in the coalition government, I was Secretary of State for 5 years. I introduced the industrial strategy and I ran it. We did very very good work on the aerospace industry, pharmaceuticals and creative industries. What's happening now is the government's continued it, but I sense there isn't the same degree of commitment that we had. I put a lot of money in new centres of innovation which are called catapults, and new materials. So we had an industrial strategy, backing for new technologies and innovation.
I think the other big thing is training, because Britain's lagging very badly behind countries like Germany in terms of vocational education and training. It's going to be made much worse by Brexit by being not able to bring people in from the European Union. What I did was bring about a revival of apprenticeships, both in volume and quality but we still have a long long way to go to revive the status of vocational training through colleges.
With Labour firmly moving to the left, and the Conservatives to the right, do you see a space for the Lib Dems to push forward in the centre ground of British politics?
Yes I do, I think we will make a breakthrough for precisely that reason. British politics is becoming more polarised. People want a moderate common sense party of the middle ground. But it isn't just that, I mean I do see myself as a radical politician, I do want to address the inequalities of wealth, I do want to address the gaping inequalities in terms of generations – young people simply don't have the same chances, the same quality of housing that my generation had.
I do want to see radical change, I do want to say big reform to the political system where we don't have fair representation in Parliament, the Lords is appointed, the funding system borders on the corrupt. We do need radical reform.
My basic pitch though, is that we are a moderate middle-of-the-road party and we want to get the best of a private enterprise system, combine it with good strong social services and effective government.
Would addressing these systemic failures mean a new voting system? Perhaps Proportional Representation?
We've always been the party of Proportional Representation. We did get the AV Referendum in 2010, we didn't win it but we did get it. We'd like a system like they have in the Scottish Parliament or in Germany, where you have a combination of constituencies and lists to make sure that representation is proportional. We think that is important, because otherwise you get Parliaments that are totally unrepresentative, people feel their votes are wasted and it's not effective democracy. That is a matter of priority and I think there's a lot of people on the left who would agree with that.

Helen Putnam Regional Park Trails - Wag!
Helen Putnam Regional Park rests just outside of Petaluma in California's Marin and Sonoma counties. Encompassing scenic forests and picturesque grasslands, it spans over 200 acres and features over six miles of trails for hiking, biking, and equestrian use. The park's trails are known for their calm setting, beautiful views, and convenient access to the larger park complex with its playground, pond, and more. And one of the most attractive features of Helen Putnam Regional Park is that you can bring your furry friend with you when you visit!
From the parking lot, you can take one of two routes on the Ridge Trail. One of the trails is paved, and the other is dirt, and they both run parallel between the parking lot and the fish pond. Further into the park is the Panorama Trail. This short trail is the most scenic trail Helen Putnam Regional Park offers, and it provides a view of the surrounding area. You will also find the Helen Putnam Loop in the center of the park. This loop trail offers a scenic walk through nature, and you can find picnic benches at the top of the hill if you want to rest your legs. It is an easy trail to hike as it maintains a low incline, so you'll definitely want to stop by if you're in the park.
When visiting any trail, always make sure to follow its guidelines. Helen Putnam Regional Park requires canine companions to remain leashed at all times. The park has furrific amenities — there are restroom facilities and water, and there are also dog bags alongside the trails for your convenience.
You are sure to enjoy your time at Helen Putnam Regional Park — it is one of the best parks in the area, and most importantly, your waggy friend will have a great time too!
Be careful of the poison oak that grows in this region.

Clark Faculty Weigh in on "Thirteen Reasons Why"
May 20, 2017 3:05 pm by Indy Staff Views: 13
Hannah Baker, the focal point of the Netflix series "Thirteen Reasons Why," experiences bullying, sexual harassment and rape in the 13 episode season. Her death is both the beginning and end of the series as the show centers around its effects on her community. (photo courtesy of Netflix.com)
The Netflix series "Thirteen Reasons Why" caused an internet conversation about the depiction of suicide in the media after it released March 31.
The show focuses on 13 tapes left behind by the main character, Hannah Baker, after she kills herself. Each tape is meant to tell her peers a reason why she killed herself, and the roles they played in motivating her to make that decision.
Some local and national articles praise the show for raising awareness for suicide while others condemn it for glamorizing the subject. Clark faculty members said these issues aren't so black and white.
"To push people out of their comfort zone is to affect change," Molly Lampros, communication and mass media instructor, said.
Felis Peralta, multicultural retention manager of the Diversity and Equity Center, said people often hide their struggles due to a societal stigma against needing help. Most people don't seek help before committing suicide, according to the Center for Disease Control website.
Dr. Bevyn Rowland, a counselor at Clark Counseling and Health Services, said suicidal feelings aren't abnormal and that it's important that they're represented in a helpful way in the media.
Lampros agrees with Rowland. She said suicide in the media has brought awareness of two of the largest issues affecting teenagers: suicide and depression.
While Rowland doesn't think suicide was approached properly by "Thirteen Reasons Why," she thinks there isn't a show that has done it right yet. Both Rowland and Lampros said the way suicide is portrayed in the media is important.
Some people online have criticized the show's lack of PSAs. The series didn't provide resources or contacts for people struggling with suicide until after the season finale of the show. Rowland suggests implementing the PSAs at the beginning, middle and end of shows, so if someone turns off the program they are still reminded that there is help.
If students need access to local resources for help, they're able to get free counseling at the Counseling and Health Center. Peralta said visiting a counselor is "like having a paid best friend.

Raytheon Company successfully tested a new Electric Gun for the Phalanx Close-In Weapon System (CIWS). The upgrade allows soldiers and sailors to fire at varying rates, which uses less ammunition. Phalanx is a Rapid-Fire, Computer-Controlled Radar and 20 mm Gun System that automatically acquires, tracks and destroys enemy threats that have penetrated all other Ship Defence Systems. More than 890 systems have been built and deployed in Navies around the world.
The goal of the live-fire test was to ensure the Electric Gun can operate despite the heavy vibrations that occur when Phalanx is fired. The new design replaces a pneumatic motor, compressor and storage tanks, reducing the system's weight by 180 pounds. These changes also increase reliability and reduce operating costs.
"Phalanx is a weapon of last resort and the Electric Gun's larger magazine will allow the U.S. and its allies to stay in the fight longer," said Rick McDonnell, Director of Raytheon's Close-In Defence Solutions programme. This Raytheon-funded test is one part of a series of "Tech Refresh" projects for the Phalanx.
Raytheon Company, with 2016 sales of US$ 24 Billion and 63,000 employees, is a technology and innovation leader specialising in Defence, Civil Government and Cyber Security Solutions.
