Prolozone Therapy is a non-surgical process of injecting ozone directly into the impacted area to increase the amount of cellular oxygen into muscles, ligaments, and joints. Unlike the healthy cells that thrive in oxygen, disease causing bacteria (i.e. viruses, parasites, and fungi) are mostly anaerobic and are not able to survive in high oxygen environments.Because Prolozone Therapy goes directly to the root cause of the pain it delivers immediate relief! Most patients can expect an immediate 50-80% decrease in pain after just one treatment.
Major Auto-Hemotherapy (MAH) involves the injection of medical grade ozone gas into blood drawn from a patient. The ozone is allowed to mix with the blood for a period of time. This is because the blood has been super oxygenated.

Funding for K-12 Education
The Arizona Joint Legislative Budget Committee produces two reports on K-12 funding. In addition to state government monies, funding from local governments and the federal government also are published. One report is limited to funding for maintenance and operation (M&O: the compensation of employees and the purchase of supplies, materials, and contractual services). The other report is for total funding, including capital outlays (for the construction of buildings and for the purchase of land and equipment). Most capital outlays, which are driven by a growing population, do not benefit current students, so M&O is the more meaningful measure of education funding.
The funding data are reported for fiscal years; for example, fiscal year 2013 runs from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013. Each annual report includes a ten-year time series.
The funding figures were divided first by a measure of enrollment called "average daily membership," and then by per capita personal income in order to adjust for inflation and per capita economic growth. Per capita personal income was calculated using the fiscal year average for personal income and the average of the population at the beginning and end of the fiscal year.
The K-12 Maintenance & Operation (M&O) Funding report is produced by the Arizona Joint Legislative Budget Committee in July http://www.azleg.state.az.us/jlbc.htm. The enrollment figures also are taken from this report.
Personal income is estimated quarterly by state by the U. S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis http://www.bea.gov/regional/index.htm. It is released about three months after the end of the quarter; revisions to estimates for prior quarters are made every quarter.
The calculation of per capita personal income for the fiscal year uses annual population estimates as of July 1. Through 1999, the source is the U. S. Department of Commerce, Census Bureau. Their time series of population estimates is most easily accessed from the BEA: http://www.bea.gov/regional/index.htm. Since 2000, the source is the Arizona Department of Administration, Office of Employment and Population Statistics: http://www.workforce.az.gov/population-estimates.aspx. Both sets of estimates are released in December.
Because of differences by state in accounting systems, the JLBC data are not comparable to those of any other state. Inconsistencies and inaccuracies exist within the time series of enrollment in elementary and secondary education.
Some of the inputs to the calculation of personal income by state are estimated. Personal income estimates are subject to revision. Personal income is a comprehensive measure of the economy but has conceptual limitations when employed to adjust public revenues and expenditures.
Total Funding for Elementary and Secondary Education Per Student Per $1,000 of Per Capita Personal Income, Arizona State Government
Total maintenance and operations funding from all sources per student rose slightly for the second consecutive year in fiscal year (FY) 2014 relative to the ability of the state's residents to pay, but the figure still was 6 percent less than in FY 2007, just prior to the start of the recession. Other spending, which largely consists of capital outlays used to repair and build schools, again was unusually low in FY 2014.
Maintenance and Operations Funding by Source of Funding for Elementary and Secondary Education Per Student Per $1,000 of Per Capita Personal Income, Arizona State Government
The general fund was the primary source of maintenance and operations funding for K-12 education, accounting for 54 percent of the total in fiscal year (FY) 2014. Local government property taxes also provided substantial revenues (36 percent of the total in FY 2014). The permanent fund, which consists of receipts from state land sales and leases, provided less than 1 percent of the funding. Proposition 301, which is funded by the 0.6 percentage point increase in the sales tax rate that was approved by voters in November 2000, contributed less than 8 percent. The federal government paid for 1 percent.
Measured per student relative to the ability of the state's residents to pay, general fund appropriations for maintenance and operations in FY 2014 was 22 percent less than the FY 2007 peak. Proposition 301 monies are closely tied to the economic cycle and began to rebound in FY 2012 following three years of declines, but in FY 2014 still were 18 percent lower than in FY 2007. Federal support in the last three years was the lowest since records began in 2000. In contrast, local funding from the property tax was 17 percent higher than in FY 2007.

Search for GSU president postponed
March 4, 2010 12:00 am by Ashley Leichmon
On Friday, Feb. 26 a meeting concerning a new permanent president for Grambling State University was placed on hold. Reasons concerning the issue have not yet been determined, yet many believe the interim president is on his way to becoming GSU's permanent president. Vanessa Littleton, director of public relations, thinks highly of Pogue and his mission for GSU. "I think Dr. Pogue is the type of guy that we should all try to mimic. While working under his leadership, a different feeling has taken precedence."
Littleton also reflected on a meeting held on Saturday, Feb. 27 in relation to the effect he has had on the student bod . "During a staff meeting on Saturday a student, who was unable to get in school for the spring semester, came into the conference room unannounced."
"Not only did Dr. Pogue immediately address the student's issue, he also held the meeting to do so. He also greeted the student's parents and lent a helping hand to assist the student with his dilemma."
Dr. Pogue has proven to be a dedicated leader that is committed to servicing the community of Grambling in addition to GSU. He has made it a priority to support many events held on campus and is determined to make his mark at this university.
Pogue became the first African-American to lead a traditionally white college or university in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Pogue has already proven to be an exceptional leader and is making an impact on the administration of GSU.
These accusations have been accounted for through the many contributions he has made to other institutions. According to Cheney University in Pennsylvania as Edinboro president, Dr. Pogue became the first African-American to lead a traditionally white college or university in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on July 1, 1996.
Academic programs expanded by three dozen, facilitated by a nationally-recognized strategic planning process. Under Dr. Pogue's direction, the university was also re-accredited with commendation for 10 years by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools in 2003.
Pogue's friendly exterior and strategic work ethics has undoubtedly rebuilt the faith of students and faculty of GSU.
Though his official plan of action is unclear, his noted reputation for civic responsibility professionalism will continue to make a mark GSU.

Massless Klein-Gordon equation
From Encyclopedia of Mathematics
Revision as of 17:44, 1 July 2020 by Maximilian Janisch (talk | contribs) (Automatically changed introduction)
The Klein–Gordon equation [a1], [a2], [a3]
\begin{equation*} 0 = \left[ - \left( \frac { \partial } { \partial t } - i \frac { q e } { \hbar } \phi \right) ^ { 2 } + \right. \end{equation*}
\begin{equation*} \left.+ c ^ { 2 } \left( \nabla - i \frac { q e } { \hbar c } A \right) ^ { 2 } + \frac { c ^ { 4 } m ^ { 2 } } { \hbar ^ { 2 } } \right] \psi ( t , \mathbf{x} ) \end{equation*}
for the case where the mass parameter $m$ is equal to zero. The constant $c$ stands for the speed of light, $e$ is the charge of the positron, $\hbar = h / 2 \pi$ where $h$ is the Planck constant, $( t , \mathbf{x} )$ are the time, respectively space, variables, and $i$ is the imaginary unit. The (complex-valued) solution $\psi$ describes the wave function of a relativistic spinless and massless particle with charge in the exterior electro-magnetic field $( \phi , \mathbf{A} )$. It is a second-order, hyperbolic partial differential equation. Solutions are being studied in, e.g., [a4], [a5].
If the outer field is zero, $( \phi , \mathbf{A} ) = 0$, or the coupling of the spin to the magnetic potential $\mathbf{A}$ can be neglected, the massless Klein–Gordon equation also can be used for the description of massless spin-carrying particles, such as e.g. photons. In the case without outer fields the massless Klein–Gordon equation becomes equivalent to the wave equation with wave speed $c$ and is independent of the magnitude of Planck's constant $h$. This explains, why the wave nature of massless particles, such as e.g. photons ( "light" ), can also be observed on a macroscopic scale — in contrast with the wave nature of massive particles (cf.also Massless field; Massive field).
The interpretation of the wave function $\psi$ as a quantum mechanical "probability amplitude" (similarly as in the case of the Schrödinger equation), however, is not consistent, since the quantity $\int _ { \mathbf{R} ^ { 3 } } | \psi ( t , \mathbf{x} ) | ^ { 2 } d \mathbf{x}$ in general depends on the time parameter $t$. Furthermore, the existence of negative frequency solutions is in contrast with the required lower boundedness of the energy ( "stability of matter" ). These problems are resolved through a re-interpretation of $\psi ( t , \mathbf{x} )$ as a quantum field (cf. Quantum field theory), see e.g. [a6], [a7].
In recent time (as of 2000) solutions of the Klein–Gordon equation on Lorentzian manifolds have attracted increasing attention in connection with the theory of quantized fields on curved space-time, cf. e.g. [a8].

This week's newest whiskies are all for the bourbon, rye, and scotch lovers.
First up, Basil Hayden's is rolling out a limited-edition whiskey. Two by Two is a blend of two straight ryes (aged 5 and 7 years) and two straight bourbons (aged 6 and 13 years), both made in Kentucky and blended together. The whiskey costs $45 and will be available for a limited time.
Meanwhile, Heaven Hill has announced a 27 year old bourbon that will go on sale this fall. Less than 3,000 bottles of this whiskey will be available at a price of $399. Bourbon history buffs should note that it was distilled at Old Heaven Hill Springs Distillery before the 1996 fire which destroyed the distillery and seven warehouses (and about 2% of the world's stock of bourbon at that time).
Over in Scotland, GlenAllachie Distillery has unveiled its core range of single malt whiskies: 10 year old cask strength, 12 year old, 18 year old, and 25 year old. While the older whiskies will be available in limited amounts, the 10 year old cask strength will be released regularly in batches, and the 12 year old will be consistently available. Up until now, GlenAllachie's stock has been used for blends and little has been released as a single malt. Under new ownership since 2017, the Speyside distillery will continue to produce a few blends, but the single malts are the main event.
From the Lowlands, Bladnoch Distillery is celebrating the 200th anniversary of its founding and has released a very limited 29 year old single malt. Matured in oloroso sherry and then finished in moscatel sherry casks, the whisky costs $6,500. Only 200 bottles will be available in the U.S.
Finally, a unique blended malt from Islay is available for pre-sale now. The Great Islay Swim Explorer's Cask, bottled by independent bottler Single Cask Nation, combines whisky from all eight of Islay's productive distilleries, as well as a bit of other Islay single malts. With just 100 bottles available at $500, the proceeds from this whisky's sale benefit the UK's Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), which provides lifesaving and rescue services throughout the country's coastline. The story of this whisky's inception is too complex to easily sum up—you'll have to read on for full details.
This whiskey blends two Kentucky straight bourbons—one 6 years old and one 13 years old—and two Kentucky straight ryes—one 5 years old and the other 7 years old, with a higher rye content. Although the blend's proportions are not disclosed, the majority is made up of the ryes.
This is the second genre-bending whiskey for Basil Hayden's in the past year, following Dark Rye, which blends Canadian and Kentucky ryes with port wine. Yet bourbon-rye blends aren't so unusual, with distillers like High West (Bourye) and Wild Turkey (Forgiven) releasing their own iterations in recent years. I predict there will be more to come.
From 41 barrels of bourbon distilled in 1989 and 1990 comes this whiskey, a limited-edition expression from Heaven Hill Brands. It was distilled at the Old Heaven Hill Springs Distillery before it was destroyed by fire in 1996.
This is a barrel proof bourbon, but at 47.35% ABV, that proof is fairly low compared to heftier examples. That's because the whiskey came from barrels that aged in a humid environment on the first and second floors of the warehouse. Humidity causes alcohol levels to evaporate more quickly than water, while dry environments have the reverse effect.
Availability: 2,400 bottles for the U.S.
Matured in ex-bourbon, PX and oloroso sherry, and virgin oak casks, this cask-strength whisky has been bottled with no chill filtering. It will be released in batches.
At 12 years old, this is the flagship whisky of the new GlenAllachie range and will be regularly available. It was matured in PX and oloroso sherry and virgin oak casks.
Availability: 1,200 bottles for the U.S.
Like its younger sibling, the 12 year old, this 18 year old whisky was matured in PX and oloroso sherry and virgin oak casks. A much more limited amount is available.
Availability: 160 bottles for the U.S.
Matured in ex-bourbon and PX and oloroso sherry casks, this is a very limited whisky—just 4,000 bottles are available worldwide, and only 160 of those are coming to the U.S.
Many scotch fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of these whiskies from GlenAllachie, a Speyside distillery that was bought in 2017 by Billy Walker—the man behind GlenDronach, BenRiach, and Glenglassaugh in recent years, before they were sold to Brown-Forman. Founded in the 1960s, GlenAllachie previously belonged to the Chivas Brothers arm of multinational alcohol company Pernod Ricard, which used its output mainly in blended whiskies.
Availability: 200 bottles for the world, including 20 for the U.S.
A limited release celebrating Bladnoch's 200th anniversary, this 29 year old whisky was distilled in 1988 and initially matured in oloroso sherry casks. For the last 18 months of its maturation, it was moved to moscatel sherry casks.
This whisky is bottled at cask strength—although at 41.2% ABV, that strength is awfully low. Like the Heaven Hill 27 year old above, this was matured in a humid environment, causing the alcohol levels to drop over its long period in the barrel. Bladnoch could not have waited much longer to bottle this; below 40% ABV, it would not legally qualify as whisky.
The result of a heroic effort to circumnavigate Islay by swimming, this special whisky blends single malts from all eight of Islay's distilleries. The whiskies were selected by the distillery managers and collected by the swimmers in a quarter cask, which followed them in a boat during their 8-day swim. Afterwards, the whiskies spent several additional months marrying in the quarter cask. With only about 100 bottles available from independent bottler Single Cask Nation, all profits benefit the UK's Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), which provides lifesaving efforts throughout the country's coastal areas.
The story of the three men who swam around Islay is a good one—read more about it on their website. There are other blended Islay malts out there, like Big Peat and and Sheep Dip Blended Islay Malt, number 13 in the 2017 Whisky Advocate Top 20. But this is the only bottle so far to blend whisky from all eight of Islay's active distilleries: Ardbeg, Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhain, Caol Ila, Kilchoman, Lagavulin, and Laphroaig. In addition, the blend contains small amounts of Islay whisky chosen and donated by guests on a Whisky Geek tour who supported the swim as part of their trip. It's an expensive bottle, but also truly unique—and, like a few other whiskies we know of, it benefits a great cause.

Q: Bookshelf registry plugin and node cirrcular dependency errors I tried to use Bookshelf but got stuck with undefined models errors. So I tried to use the "registry" plugin as described in
bookshelf registry wiki.
I actualy got error mentioned in this github issue. But there is just a reference to registry plugin and that node circular dependency managment issuesmay cause it. I tied to replicate almost exactly the example in the wiki.
My code:
db.js
var client = require("knex");
var knex = client({
    client: 'pg',
    connection: {
        host: '127.0.0.1',
        user: 'postgres',
        password: 'postgres',
        database: 'hapi-todo'
    },
    pool: {
        min: 2,
        max: 10
    },
    debug: true
});
var Bookshelf = require('bookshelf')(knex);
Bookshelf.plugin('registry');
module.exports = Bookshelf;

user.js
var db = require("../models/db");
require("../todos/todo");
var User = db.Model.extend({
    tableName: "users",
    todos: function () {
        return this.hasMany('Todo', "user_id");
    }
});
module.exports = db.model("User", User);

todo.js
var db = require("../models/db");
require("../users/user");
var Todo = db.Model.extend({
    tableName: "todos",
    user: function () {
        return this.belongsTo('User');
    }
});
module.exports = db.model("Todo", Todo);

sample.js - works
var Todo = require("./todos/todo")

Todo.collection().fetch().then(function(result) {
    console.log(result);
});

this code runs as expected and produces the desired results.
sample.js
var Todo = require("./todos/todo")

Todo({
    description: "Walk the dogs",
    user_id: 1,
    completed: false
}).save()
.then(function(todo) {
    console.log(todo)
})

this results in:
/node_modules/bookshelf/lib/base/model.js:57
  this.attributes = Object.create(null);
                  ^

TypeError: Cannot set property 'attributes' of undefined

    at node.js:933:3

What am I doing wrong here? Am I missing somethig?
(I am fairly new to the node environment)

A: The problem is not related to the registry plugin. Anyway its use allow you to remove the require() to the related models on user.js and todo.js.
The fix is simply adding a new before Todo, because you can only save() an instance:
new Todo({
    description: "Walk the dogs",
    user_id: 1,
    completed: false
}).save().then(function(todo) {
    console.dir(todo)
})

WASHINGTON - The Kyoto Protocol was not up for discussion for the United States in the new round of UN climate change talks in South Africa next week, a US official said Tuesday.
"Kyoto is not on the table for the US," Todd Stern, US special envoy for climate change, told reporters at a press briefing. However, the US "don't see the Kyoto being a logjam," Stern said.
The Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement linked to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, sets binding targets for nearly 40 industrialized countries and the European community for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from 2008 to 2012. Its first commitment period ends on December 31, 2012.
The US, which is not a party to the Kyoto treaty, has proposed developing a new agreement that would require the world's large economies to cut their emissions under the same legally binding requirements as the US and other large countries. "We wouldn't do it if all major economies weren't also part of it in quite a full way," Stern said.
"The regime of dealing with climate change in the international level has to open up and grow and include all major economies. And that's what started to happen in Copenhagen and happened more in Cancun," Stern said.
While answering questions from Xinhua about the duel-track negotiation mechanism, Stern said "the US isn't one of the two tracks ... it's up to Kyoto parties to say what they want to do about Kyoto. The other track is that track that involves all parties ... That's the one we are in, that's the one we are the most focused on. I think whether in the future ... whether we will have two tracks is an open question. We will wait and see."
Stern also signaled he does not expect a legally binding agreement to cut greenhouse-gas emissions will be reached in South Africa. However, the US are "committed to working with South Africa and our partners throughout the world to solve remaining open issues."
The upcoming UN climate conference is scheduled to be held in the South African city of Durban in late November to early December, when delegates from nearly 200 governments will negotiate further action to address climate change.

In one cubic foot of atmospheric air, there are millions of particles that are potentially harmful to your machines and equipment. Roughly 80% of the contaminates are so small that they will easily pass through your compressor's intake filter and into your compressed air lines, causing frequent and expensive downtime of your pneumatic equipment. To combat this issue, Great Lakes Air has developed a comprehensive range of filter grades to maintain your compressed air system integrity while balancing filtration efficiency with energy efficiency.
GH Series air filters remove contaminates from compressed air after compression has taken place.

Theory Project 2: Preparing Scores
David Raleigh Arnold
Estimated Time to Complete?
I would appreciate some feedback on that. ☺
[ mss. paper ]
Use a pencil and a decent eraser. Hand written scores are lighter than printed scores, even when inked. Don't fill in any thick lines.
System or Staff Bracket: 𝄕 Staff Brace: 𝄔
Substitute a right or left bracket resembling a staff bracket for every thick vertical line, facing in the appropriate direction. The angled lines are curved and they close the gap between the verticals, but your style is your own. The brackets may be all the same, except for their length, whether you are drawing an alto clef, a staff bracket, a double bar, or a repeat sign.
In writing music with pencil most opportunities to shorten strokes are taken, and there are no blobs except for black note heads and augmentation dots.

\            /  \           /      \            /      clef  \
An Example Score
The Staff or Stave
A staff or stave is a line of music consisting in five staff lines. It is usually clear whether a staff line, or a whole staff, or a whole system is meant by "line" but...
The first items placed on the staff lines at the left are called clefs. From the bottom, there is a bass or F clef, a treble or G clef, an alto or C clef, and a G ottava bassa clef (G/8).
The Grandstaff
The grand staff is the system of staves used for keyboard instruments, lute, and carillon. (There never was a single eleven line staff called a grand staff.) It is simply a bass clef underneath a treble clef. There is a brace to show that both staves are for a single instrument. Middle C is the note midway between the staves, which is why it is called middle C.[1]
A system is a group of staves, grouped by having at least one line, but usually all of the bars and barlike objects, extending from the top of the top staff to the bottom of the bottom staff. You might also call a system a staff group, but all the staves and staff groups which are played together are a system.
To draw a system, first close the ends of the staves with a line from the top line of the top staff to the bottom line of the bottom staff. Indent by all means. Then draw the staff bracket to the left. Then draw the brace. Put in any instrument names you like. Bracketing the systems will help you follow the music more easily. Skip a line between systems if there is room on the paper.
When there are many staves, the instrument names are at the head of every staff in abbreviated form. Here they would be pno, vla, and gtr.
To end a system with a double bar, first close the ends of the staves with a right bracket and then draw the parallel line close to it on the left from top to bottom.
Notice that the bass staff above has nothing in it. A mistake? No, there is only one voice for each instrument. One voice means one staff.
Of course the score is the whole thing, but it can also mean a single system, as in "a line of score", or the "top line of each score."
The Clefs
Draw the bass or F clef.
On the bottom we have the clef with the lowest notes. It is a letter F. The blobs on the ends of the arms have gradually become dots above and below the F line and the arms have disappeared altogether. This is much easier to draw than the G clef and the line can well be drawn with a single stroke. Start where the blob is, but don't draw the blob. Turn the dots into very short lines for better legibility. The dots indicate that the line between them is an "F".
Draw the alto or C clef.
The two half circles on the right side of the printed clef above are both letter C's, with the top one backwards and the lower upside down. That's not the way to do it by hand. With the first stroke, draw a staff bracket with the corners at the top line and the middle line, and then another identical bracket from the middle line to the bottom line, so that the left sides form a continuous line. Then cross the middle arms with a vertical line. See the right end of fig. 1.
The C clef was the original clef sign, but today its use is restricted to a few instruments. It is not going to disappear any time soon, though. The alto clef indicates that its middle line is C. It is sometimes placed on other lines of the staff. For example, if it is on the line above it is called the tenor clef.
The C clef was the original clef sign, but today its use is restricted to a few instruments except for performing ancient music. It is not going to disappear any time soon. The alto clef indicates that its middle line is C. It is sometimes placed on other lines of the staff. For example, if a C clef is on the line above the middle it is called a tenor clef.
Draw the G or treble clef.
I recommend two strokes to draw the G clef.
The G clef is a small letter G, not a capital. Cover the top loop and you can see that it ia a "g" with a point at the top in an old handwriting style related to blackletter. Begin drawing it at the top of the loop, and draw the line downward to the left turning somewhat to the right and then left again, something like an elongated S. You do not need a blob on the end of that line, but if you do not have any curvature to the left at all the letter becomes a "q" instead of a "g".
Begin at the top again from the same point and draw the other line. You don't need a blob on the end. It is neither necessary nor desirable to mimic the printed symbol to an extreme, and in some cases a more old fashioned style is better and more current for handwritten music.
Start at the top again with the other line, and complete the "g" clef by rounding the line below the middle line of the staff, which is a "g". The line need not curl at the end as in the printed example, but this line should at least cross the other a third time before ending.
You may like a clef you see elsewhere better, but do not do the clef with one stroke, rounding the loop at the top. Two strokes will give a much better result with speed.
If you are really hopeless as an artist, there are many bad alternatives to avoid. If you must, simply draw a small "g" with the closed part of the letter circling the line below the middle line. It's not pretty, but it's not wrong either.
Draw the G ottava bassa clef.
To make the clef an ottava bassa (G/8) all you need is the little "8" underneath. The guitar has has always been played an octave (eight notes) lower than written. Music is commonly written for tenors using the G clef at the octave also. Music for the piccolo (piccolo flute) is played an octave higher than written, and a little "8" at the top of the G clef indicates ottava alta (G\8). Regardless of the antiquity of the instrument and how well established the custom may be, there is no good reason at all to omit the "8" if the music is meant to be changed (transposed) by moving the notes up or down an octave.
Draw the time signature.
The time signature indicates 4/4 time. The abbreviation looks like the letter C but historically it is a half circle. It goes on the first system but not after that, unless the time changes.
Practice drawing the clefs separately on staff lines until they come a bit easier.
The Rests
There are three types of written notes: typical notes, grace notes, and rests. A rest has a time value and no sound at all. As long as there is only one voice written on the staff, each rest is placed near the middle line of the staff in a particular way.
Measure 1.
In the first measure above, in 4/2 time, there are four counts, and a half rest gets one count. Therefore, a rest gets two counts, so there are two whole rests in the measure. The whole rests are not centered. They are on the under side of the line above the middle, and when you draw them make sure they extend to only halfway between the line above the middle and the middle line.
In measure 2 there are two half rests. They are not centered, and they lie like hats on the middle line, extending only halfway to the line above the middle. If you were to write a whole rest atop a half rest, there would be no space between them but neither would they overlap. You would have written the breve rest or double whole note rest from which the other two were derived. The top half of the breve rest became the whole rest and the bottom half became the half rest.
The typesetting software[2] has made the whole rest somewhat taller, but do not write it taller yourself.
In measure 3 there is a measure rest, or whole measure rest so called because it fills the measure completely. A measure rest is drawn as a whole rest and it is always centered in the measure.
Measure 4 has three beats since it is in 3/4 time.
To draw the quarter rest, draw the right side of a letter "R", omitting the vertical, or start with a number "2", but pull the horizontal line down on the right. Put the hook on the bottom and it's done. The quarter rest is a letter "R" suitable for being placed next to a letter with a vertical right side. It's right out of Gutenberg's Bible. The hook on the bottom is merely embellishment.
The "classical" quarter rest is a mirror-reversed 8th rest. Don't use it.
Some people draw a version of the "S" rest which was introduced in the very early 1800's to replace the "classical" rest. The "S" rest is like an S or backwards "Z" with the top and bottom concave instead of convex or straight. Another way to draw it is to make a line down and curving left, straight to the right, and then curving left and down. That is the easiest way to start, and I recommend it to you. If you rotate that clockwise you have an "S" rest. Or copy the eighth doubled and backwards. Or chop away half of both curves of a Gutenberg rest.
There is a lot of variation to be found in the quarter rest. The problem with the Gutenberg rest is that it takes too much vertical space and therefore collides with other rests or notes too often. For handwriting music, the Gutenberg rest and the classical rest are the worst, in my opinion.
In any case, there should be no blobs.
Measure 5 still has 3 counts, but it has a measure rest and it is centered. The whole note symbol is used for the whole measure rest no matter how few counts are in the measure.
Measure 6 has two counts, and measure 7 has a whole measure rest again. This time the measure rest gets only two beats. The measure rest is always centered.
A Score of Two Systems in 4/4 Time
Draw the skeleton.
Indent and draw the vertical line from the top of the system to the bottom, the system bracket, the grandstaff brace, the clefs, and the time signature.
Divide the first system with vertical lines, called bars, so that there are four measures with equal white in each in each system. The score ends with a bar closing the end, which is a single line exactly like the other bars.
If you have more than eight staves per page, skip a line between systems. The second system begins the same way except that there is no time signature. The second system ends with a bracket closing the ends of the lines and a bar on the lines a bit to the left of that, making a double bar. After drawing the ending double bar, divide the second system into four measures with equal white in each.
You don't usually draw bars before the contents of the previous measure, but assume that there are other staves with content which requires this sort of spacing. You will seldom have occasion to draw whole measure rests first. On what would you center them?
Numbering the Measures
The first score starts with a complete measure of four beats, so the first bar is not drawn. Over the bar after the first empty measure space, place a very small "2". Number all of the rest of the bars in that fashion. The bar which ends a system is numbered at the beginning of the next system so that it will be before the measure which is being numbered.
That is necessarily somewhat confusing. You wish to number the measures, yet you have no other option but to number the bars instead, because the measures are seen only by means of the bars which precede them.
Draw the whole measure rests
Place a whole rest in the space above the middle line, centered in each measure. These are whole rests because of their time value but whole measure rests because they fully occupy a measure. Best practice is that whole measure rests should always be centered in the measure. Other voices, especially if they are on the same staff, do not line up vertically. This practice can help to reduce crowding on the first beat at the beginning of the measure.
Practice Drawing Clefs
You want to be able to draw clefs quickly, easily, and legibly. Of course from now on you write one staff group at a time. Numbering measures is a very good idea if you are copying or arranging something. The manner of doing it is totally standard. No one does it differently.
When you can draw the exercise pretty, on to the next!
A Score in Three Quarter Time
The bar numbering is different from before because you begin numbering with the first complete measure. The quarter rest which begins the piece is not three counts, so the first measure is the measure following it. The whole measure rest in this case gets three counts, and it is centered in the measure. A whole rest is used, in spite of the measure being three counts. The practice of writing the whole rest in 3/4 time is completely dependent on the centering of the whole measure rest. Nothing with an augmentation dot is ever centered.
Starting with an incomplete measure, called a pickup or anacrusis, does not oblige one to end with another unless there is a repeat.
Again, when you can draw it pretty, next!
A score in 2/4 time
Center the whole measure rests. They get two counts.
A Problem
You never number the first measure. What if you have a line break within a measure? What is numbered? You number the first bar in the line, the measure after the measure the line breaks in. It should not matter if that number is before the clef, but that usage, though correct, can confuse players. Not you though, I hope.

The Best And (Very) Worst Of Liz Taylor
by Andrew Hopf Allegheny College Feb 15, 2016
To dismiss Dame Elizabeth Rosemond Hilton Wilding Todd Fisher Burton (Burton, again) Warner Fortensky Taylor as an actress would be a glaring understatement. She was a phenomenon, and with good reason. Her life was more drama-filled than any of her movies, including a history of critical health problems (like the emergency tracheotomy which left a scar that could only be covered by the infamous 68 carat Burton-Taylor Diamond), eight marriages, two to the same man, her Academy Awards, and the drastic weight gains and losses. For decades, Taylor's name was a staple of headlines across the world.
Elizabeth Taylor is, above all else, beyond description, and Feb. 27 marks what would have been her 84th birthday. In her honor, I'll be watching either one of her amazing films, or any one of her notorious bombs, because a movie with Liz Taylor is like sex or pizza; even when it's bad, it's still good.
"Cat On a Hot Tin Roof" (1958).
Tennessee Williams' play adheres to his tried-and-true style of revealing the seamy underbelly of southern aristocracy, but it's Taylor who brings the character of Maggie "The Cat" Pollitt to life with a crackling sensuality and a raw yearning for her husband's affection. As the titular Cat, Liz swaggers and struts across the backdrop of a fine ol' Mississippi plantation, bringing together the best of both her on-and-off screen sex appeal and Tennessee Williams' penchant for damn fine southern gothic literature.
"BUtterfield 8" (1960).
"Butterfield 8" earned Liz her first Oscar, even though many claim she got it out of pity after a near-fatal bout of pneumonia. After being publicly deemed a homewrecker (she stole America's sweetheart's husband, knocking Sputnik off the front pages and making him number four in her constellation of failed marriages), MGM offered (forced) her this role as her last for the studio, and while she hated it, she played Gloria Wandrous to the hilt. Gloria is a jaded woman who often confuses sex with love, ultimately leading to her demise. While the film's message is a little puritanical, Taylor gives a phenomenal performance (arguably the second best of her career), most evident in her "I was the slut of all time!" speech she gives her mother.
"Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966).
Liz's best, hands down, bar none. In "Virginia Woolf," her magnum opus for which she gained 30 pounds, she plays Martha, wife of an associate professor (played by her real-life husband, the classically trained Shakespearean actor Richard Burton). You would think that Liz, while a capable actress, would be buried under Burton's bravura, yet she manages to hold her own, blow for blow, insult for insult, drink for drink (for drink for drink for drink). The result is a brutally frank two-hour domestic quarrel which takes place over the course of one booze-soaked night, making a Maury rerun seem like The Waltons by comparison. Taylor, expertly playing a cruel, nagging harpy trapped in a loveless marriage, snagged her second Oscar for this, and no one can say she didn't deserve this one.
"Cleopatra" (1963).
The mother of all historical epics, "Cleopatra" is a four-hour long meandering mess from start to finish. Weighted by unending dialogue, devoid of any dynamicism, "Cleopatra" only plays such a large role in the pantheon of Taylor's filmography because of its historical context: its budget of $31 million made it the most expensive film ever made, nearly driving 20th Century Fox into bankruptcy, and Elizabeth Taylor was paid a record-shattering $1 million to play the role of the tragically-fated Queen.
"Boom!" (1968).
How can something so right be so wrong? You would think that since Tennessee Williams and Liz worked so well together, and Richard Burton and Liz worked so well together, the three of them pulling in the same direction would make an unprecedented cinematic masterpiece.
Instead they gave us "Boom!"
Liz is Sissy Goforth, the richest woman in the world, who lives alone on her own private island. When Chris Flanders (Burton) shows up on her doorstep (coastline?), they engage in a nonstop tête-à-tête, with Liz trying to seduce him every third minute. Every single line is fraught with some pitiful attempt at meaning and the entire thing is one pseudo-artistic bomb (no pun intended), the cinematic equivalent of Squidward playing the clarinet. But you can't look away. It's just such an odd, painfully inexplicable film, a gloriously beautiful, hideously mangled attempt at substantial cinema.
"The Flintstones" (1994).
I will go to my grave denying that she co-starred in this movie.
Elizabeth Taylor was the first true movie star, the first major celebrity to proudly embody and flaunt excess and luxury. Coincidentally, as the jet set and their style of fast-paced, high-cost living fell out of favor and fashion, so too did Liz and her films. And while her last few movies were questionable at best, baffling at worst, her legacy, her beauty, and her talent (along with the annual revenue her estate brings in) are eternal. Happy birthday, Liz.

Pregnancy tests work by testing for the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone which appears in a woman's urine when she is pregnant. The hormone is produced by the woman's placenta as it begins to develop. In the early stages of pregnancy, this hormone increases rapidly and doubles every few days but it can actually take a few weeks for it to develop.
How early pregnancy can be detected with a store-bought test really depends on the type of test a woman buys. According to Better Health Victoria, most store-bought tests are best used one to two weeks after your period is due. How soon pregnancy is detected really depends on the type of pregnancy test used.
Even though they are all designed to detect pregnancy, there are some differences between the cheaper pregnancy tests and the more expensive ones. More expensive brands, often digital, are generally more sensitive and designed to detect hCG earlier. They are able to pick up hormone levels as low as 15mIU/ml and can be used as soon as ten days after ovulation, whereas non-digital tests can't detect hCG until it is at a higher level of around 40mIU/ml and therefore have to be done later in a woman's menstrual cycle.
When do false positives and negatives most likely occur?
Sometimes a home pregnancy test can show up a positive indicator when a woman isn't actually pregnant. This can happen for a number of reasons; such as compromised urine inside the collection cup (caused by detergent residue or other), a faulty test kit, not waiting long enough for the results to show, blood or protein present in the urine, certain medications, a recent miscarriage (which may mean the levels of HCG are still being detected) and even some other type of hCG-producing growth like an ovarian tumour. If a woman has had too much to drink prior to taking a test, the results can be affected as well because the urine can be so diluted and hCG levels are not able to be detected.
It's important to note that research has shown the accuracy of store-bought pregnancy tests can fluctuate between being as little as 59 percent to as big as 99 percent accurate, depending on the type of test.
For this reason, it's important for a woman to always read the individual manufacturer's instructions clearly, and follow up a home pregnancy test with a visit to her GP.

Mother-son Tragedy Gets Seoul to End Obligation to Financially Support Family
Posted on May 4, 2021 by Korea Bizwire in Culture & Society, Editor's Picks, National, Social Affairs with 0 Comments
This file photo shows an alley in Bangbae-dong, southern Seoul. (Yonhap)
SEOUL, May 4 (Korea Bizwire) — Last December, a mother in her 60s was found dead at her home nearly seven months after she had died, leaving behind a mentally impaired son with no means of support.
The tragedy led to a renewed debate over whether family members, even if estranged, should be required to financially support their relatives, a system that was widely blamed for depriving the mother and son of basic government subsidies.
Prompted by the event, which occurred in Seoul's southern neighborhood of Bangbae, the Seoul metropolitan government announced last week that it would abolish the so-called support obligation system this month, making 2,300 more citizens eligible for basic living allowances from the municipal government.
"By abolishing the system, we will be able to assist people in real poverty who have been unprotected because of the requirement for families to provide support," a municipal official said.
"It's also significant in that it can promote the early abolition of the same requirement in the central government's 'basic livelihood security system' and lead other cities and provinces to take the same steps," the official added.
The City of Seoul has operated its own social security system since 2013 to supplement the central government's, offering its citizens another avenue to receive welfare payments.
In a first step toward abolishing the family obligations, the city government removed the requirement for senior citizens aged 75 and above in August. In doing so, it paid basic living allowances to 1,875 more senior citizens.
Under the expanded initiative, all citizens earning up to 45 percent of the median income and owning up to 135 million won (US$120,300) in total assets will be eligible for the allowances.
That translates to a monthly income of less than roughly 820,000 won for one-person households and less than 2.19 million won for four-person households.
But those with wealthy family members will still be ineligible. These family members are defined as people with an annual income of at least 100 million won before tax, or real estate worth more than 900 million won.
The city government said its decision to end the controversial system comes at a time when the COVID-19 pandemic has further threatened the livelihoods of the economically vulnerable population.
The initiative applies solely to the city's own social security program, but the ruling Democratic Party has begun discussing abolishing the family obligation system nationwide.
In this file photo taken Dec. 18, 2020, civic group activists offer a silent tribute to a mother who died after struggling with economic hardships, leaving behind a mentally impaired son, in front of Cheong Wa Dae in Seoul. (Yonhap)
On Friday, several party leaders raised the need for the government to consider abolishing the system earlier than planned, according to party spokesperson Choi In-ho, who briefed reporters after a leadership meeting.
The Ministry of Health and Welfare announced in August that it will abolish the system in 2022, but only for recipients of basic living allowances.
There are various types of state welfare subsidies, including basic living, medical costs and educational expenses. Currently, there are no plans to remove the family obligation for applicants seeking medical aid.
In the case of the mother and son, the family reportedly qualified for nothing but housing subsidies because the woman had an estranged ex-husband and daughter.
By default, the ex-husband was financially responsible for his son, while the daughter was responsible for her mother.
Boxed out of the social welfare net, the mother apparently struggled to make ends meet until her death, while her mentally impaired son stayed with the corpse until all power to the house was cut.
The 30-something son was forced to live on the streets, where he met a social welfare worker and told her his mother had died.
Similar incidents, including the 2014 joint suicide of a mother and her two daughters over financial hardships, have long prompted questions about basing a welfare system on family ties.
Despite the country's deep roots in Confucianism and its values, such as filial piety, society's views on caring for the elderly have changed over time, with 26.7 percent regarding it as the family's responsibility in 2018, as opposed to 40.7 percent in 2008, according to Statistics Korea, the government statistics agency.
In contrast, the percentage of people saying the responsibility should fall on the government and society rose to a record high 48.3 percent in 2018.
Experts say abolishing the family obligation system is only part of the solution, as many people are still unable to overcome the bureaucratic hurdles of filing for welfare benefits.
Tragedies like the case of the mother and son are the result of passive public workers failing to deliver the necessary assistance, the experts said, calling for a systematic overhaul of state welfare programs.

I've often asked a golfer why does the ball spin, why does the ball curve and often golfers will tell me well it must be down to my grip or it must be down to my stance or it must be because I lift my head. But you consider all about, the golf ball does not know what you are doing, the golf ball doesn't know anything about who you are or what you look like and it doesn't care. All the ball cares about and knows about is this, and how it gets hit by the club.
So when we say to somebody what makes the ball spin and why does the ball spin, the only real answer is down to the impact conditions and the two major impact conditions that affects how a ball spins are the club path and the angle of the club face. Now there are couple of other issues in there as well but the main ones that make this ball curve are the swing path and the angle of the club face and more importantly the difference between the swing path and the club face, because if the swing path and the club face are both pointing in the same direction then the ball won't have any real curving spin, side spin effectively. It will just have pure backspin.
So regardless of where your target is, if my target is down the middle here but I am aiming over here, if my swing path is going straight down that right hand side and my club face is straight down that right hand side, the ball will go straight to the right. If both of them are straight on and square to target the ball will go straight to target and my swing path and club face are both pointing to the left the ball will go straight left. The problem arises when the club face and the swing path are different and when they are different the ball will have some curve on it.
Now generally speaking the club face is responsible for the direction the ball sets off. So if my club face is square to target, let's say that red flag in the distance the ball will start largely towards that red flag, so round about 85% of the influence of where the ball starts is the club face but then the ball may curve in-flight. Now the rule of thumb is to think about the ball curving away from the path, so the face is square to the target, the ball starts on the target, the ball curves to the right because the swing path was to the left. Now imagine kicking a soccer ball, if you kick the back of a soccer ball and the path and the face don't point in the right direction you put spin on the ball and as the ball spins through the air, its back spinning but it's also got the element of side spin on it, tilts the axis like the aeroplane wings and it would fade. And if you wanted to draw the ball your face would be square, your swing path would be to the right so that would make the ball curve the opposite direction, it would curve to the left.
So if we can understand how the spin on the ball is created by the face and the path and most importantly the difference between face and path, we have a good understanding of how the ball curves, we can now start to correct and minimize the amount of curve we have.
