You have to give the developers some kind of credit for sticking with The War Z. It's a knockoff brand that has become iconic in its own way (though admittedly, not a very good way). The game has made yet another comeback to Steam, this time under its newest moniker Infestation: The New Z.
Fredaikis AB and OP Productions make no mistake about beating around the bush or attempting to play footsies with the title or direction of the game. Right there at the top of the description on the Steam page they announce that Infestation: The New Z is a "massive re-work" of Infestation: Survivor Stories, which is a re-release of Infestation, which was the renamed version of The War Z. And for those of you who don't remember, The War Z was the knockoff game based around Dean "Rocket" Hall's DayZ mod.
There was a whole buffet of drama stretching across a smorgasbord of community disruption centered around The War Z. In fact, there more drama involved with this game than the entire boxed set of the Jerry Springer Show. The divisive history of the game has even spilled right on over into the reviews of Infestation The New Z, landing it a "Mixed" rating on Steam.
Despite being free-to-play, the game still carries a lot of bad blood with it, but that hasn't stopped the developers from trying to reinvent the series. They offer open-world gameplay with zombie battles, looting, PvP, a Battle Royale mode, a new anti-cheat setup and various loot and skin boxes.
You can see what the reinvented game looks like with the trailer below.
If you've already played The War Z then you know what to expect. If you haven't played the game, essentially it's a first-person survival title. You loot places scattered around the map, attempting to find crafting supplies, health, food, water and weapons. You deck your character out with gear, you fight zombies along the way, and you either team up with or kill other human players.
Years ago this was one of the games that helped usher in emergent gameplay, piggybacking off the success of the boon in Twitch and YouTube videos centered around player-created stories and exploits coming out of games like DayZ and Minecraft.
So you might be asking yourself "Why does this game have a mixed rating if it's a revamped version of DayZ and Minecraft?" Well, young grasshopper, it's because despite supposedly being an upgrade on The War Z, a lot of people have had problems with getting kicked for suspected cheating, while some cheaters still roam around in the game.
Others complained that the game is pay-to-win, including having to buy respawns. Some complained that the game looks like it's from 2006, others argued that being able to buy loot boxes and vehicles give payers an unfair advantage.
Some liked the game… they felt that it was well optimized, that the combat was solid and that there was plenty to loot throughout the map. Many enjoyed the fact that it's free-to-play. So there's that, too.
The general consensus is that H1Z1 would be the better game to check out, based on the user reviews, but it's still a decidedly mixed crowd who just can't seem to stay away from the game that will forever be known as the DayZ knockoff. If you're interested in learning more about how the game runs, what new patches they're adding, and downloading the client for yourself, you can visit the Steam store page.


Why? Cleveland's Finest Hors d'Oeuvre Contest! – Why CLE?
Why? Cleveland's Finest Hors d'Oeuvre Contest!
February 23, 2018 By Jen @ Why CLE?
One of my favorite food events in town is Cleveland's Finest Hors d'Oeuvre Contest, to benefit Our Lady of the Wayside.
So often at food events like this, you see chefs trying (and sometimes struggling) to make dishes bite-sized and easy to eat as you're strolling. But when the entire category of offerings is hors d'oeuvres, well, everything becomes poppable and portable.
You also have to love the venue: the Terrace Club at Progressive Field. Baseball season is just close enough to have me excited to be back at the corner of Carnegie and Ontario!
The short rib and potato pancake dish from A Taste of Excellence was delicious, especially the horseradish sauce!
The shrimp scampi with garlic butter and parmesan risotto from the Hilton Garden Inn Cleveland East was the sleeper hit of the night. It was my favorite dish and won #2 overall.
And their creme brulee offerings were delicious too!
…as did the generous pulled pork taco with apple slaw from Berea Depot, which took third place overall.
And speaking of thinking of summer and baseball, you can enjoy some awesome food at the game!
The Cleveland Indians Zydeco chicken and waffle had a lot of fun, creative elements!
Of course, there were sweet treats too, like the graham cracker cookie sandwiches from Melt Bar and Grilled and mini cupcakes from Cupcake Cravings.
But the sweetest part of the evening was contributing to Our Lady of the Wayside's mission, in particular this year to helping build a brand new facility in Westlake for the Pathways Day Program.
Cheers to great food, a great cause, and a short wait until Opening Day!


Hughes continues to showcase estate sales auctions and online estate auctions. We are pleased to be offering two original works by Los Angeles artist Peter Shire for an online estate auction on eBay. The ceramic teapot sculptures are titled "Accordion, 1983" and "Dog Hedge, 1983", which is notable for its inclusion in the 1983 – 1985 exhibition "On and Off the Wall: Shaped and Colored".
Born in Los Angeles in 1947, Shire still lives and works in the Echo Park district today. In addition to his association with the Memphis Group of designers in the early 1980s, this versatile artist has worked on the Design team for the XXIII Olympiad and with the American Institute of Architects. His sculpture, furniture and ceramics have been exhibited internationally.
However crazy and fanciful my work appears, I'm still held by function. The teapots I make are borderline, however. They're more involved with a group of shapes and a material.
The artist stopped making clay teapots in 1985, devoting his time thereafter to building furniture. Shire's ceramic teapots remain a favorite among collectors today.


Swiss headquartered Floating Life and Carrara-based CCN-Cerri Cantieri Navali have recently joined their large expertise in shipbuilding, yacht design and management to work on a brand-new 42.50 m vessel. Project has been unveiled at Cannes Yachting Festival 2016.
This steel yacht, strengthened to fit the "Light Ice class" and featuring an aluminium superstructure, has been developed starting from the tested hull of the K40, engineered by Studio Sculli and currently under construction in the Carrara shipyard.
Its outer lines too, have been pencilled by Studio Sculli and are extremely modern and aggressive also thanks to the extensive use of glazed surfaces, which result in a bold, contemporary-style yacht. "The design of the C415 – explains Mauro Sculli – is what I would call 'transversal'. i.e. a compromise between different types of yachts, mainly an explorer and a traditional, modern craft, combined with the wish to include elements that would immediately and clearly reflect CCN's distinctive style".
The interior layout features several innovative solutions and has been conceived to offer guests the utmost comfort thanks to spacious interior and exterior volumes, and large relaxation and sunbathing areas.
The Owner has available an entire deck, featuring, besides the master suite, a private pool at the bow. A second infinity edge pool for guests can be found aft on the upper deck. The main deck layout is quite original too, with the dining room located forward and connected to an outdoor lounge area. Conceived to meet a wide range of needs, this deck is extremely versatile: the aft area is used to store a large 10 m tender and water toys, but can also be easily converted into a pleasant conversation area.
There are also several areas devoted to well-being at the stern of the lower deck, the latter hosting 4 cabins. A spacious beach-club with a bar and conversation area complete the 'comfort zone' reserved for guests on this deck.
The crew quarters and the galley are large and comfortable, making this yacht ideal also for long-range cruises.
The bottom deck, which extends uninterruptedly from stern to bow, features the technical areas, a cold room, and the laundry. A side access ensures easy galley supplies loading operations.
Great care has also been devoted to the yacht's eco-friendliness, and a bi-fuel solution is currently being explored.
The Commander 415 will be powered by 2 CAT C32 ACERT engines, allowing it to reach a maximum speed of 15 knots and a cruising speed of 12 knots. Perfect vessel for long-distance cruising, the C415 can boast an impressive range of 5,400 miles at cruising speed.
"Our success with the M/Y K40 encouraged us to develop this new project, of which we are very proud, in cooperation with Floating Life. This yacht stands out for a number of modern, innovative solutions – comments CCN's CEO Diego Deprati - and I am confident it will be welcomed by the market just as it deserves".
Andrea Pezzini – Floating Life's CEO – adds: "As in the K Series we are currently developing, on this project too we have focused our attention in particular on system efficiency and easy maintenance. We have channelled all our management expertise into the main characteristics that our customers have been asking for in our 16-year experience in this sector. Moreover, we have tried to make this project extremely versatile and able to cruise in any and all sea and weather conditions. The experience we gained building the M/Y K40 proved that we and CCN share common objectives, great care for product quality, and the same ethics and working philosophy towards our customers".

In this journey through life, there are times when each of us hit some pretty serious bumps in the road. We all experience disappointments, frustrations and loss. Grief is a natural response to these situations.
Of course, some grief is heavier than others. Only this morning, we lost a dear woman who had been battling pancreatic cancer for the past 10 months. She was an amazing woman of courage, faith, generosity and optimism. She was an inspiration to many and she will be sorely missed.
Is God really good if He allows such grief in the world?
What will the future be like? Will I be able to move on?
We find ourselves coming face to face with the reality that loss and death are inevitable. "I am guaranteed to lose every earthly thing I have ever possessed...I will lose every single person I have ever loved." One Thousand Gifts (pp.84-85). I don't like the fact that I am not God and I cannot control my own reality. I really have no control, even though I live with the illusion of being in control.
So what are healthy ways to respond to loss? First, I think we grieve. We let ourselves cry out to God, pour out our emotion, even our anger at Him. He is big enough to handle it. Then, after we've exhausted ourselves with tears (but not self pity) and honesty, we let go and surrender ourselves, our broken dreams and unknown future to His loving care.
There is something very healing, almost magical, about deciding that I am not the one calling the shots. I am not God, but I can trust God. If He truly is Love, and "All things work together for good for those that love God" (Romans 8:28) then I can rest in His arms, with my head against His chest, and experience His strength and comfort.
Little by little, I can begin to step out again, opening myself up to others because of the love of my heavenly daddy, trusting in His care and His timing, knowing that He is always by my side. I will find flowers among the ashes and sunlight behind the clouds. I will know joy again.
Then one day I too, with trust and excitement, will hold my daddy's hand and cross over into the place where there is no more grief, loss or pain. What a day that will be!


Who makes a running shoe with a large toe box?
Brooks Runnign shoe has a great toe box on the Pure Cadence.
I wear Brooks Ghost 11s for this reason.
My Brooks Ghost 6s do. I tried on 7s yesterday, and they've lowered the toe box in the new style.
Asics Nimbus has one of the wider toe boxes in the Asics brand.
Altras have the largest. That's what I'm currently wearing.
Nike lunar eclipse 3, I wear them for this reason!
Altras have a huge toe box but they are seriously hideous. Brooks makes a good size toe box too though and I personally love Brooks. Hope this helps!
Saucony, I've worn the Kinvara for 5 years. Just switched to Adidas boost , also nice.
I got blisters in Nike free FYI. Not as wide .
I really like to have a roomy toe box and have worn both Brooks and Saucony.
I heard about Altras on this community and have bought 2 different pair in the last two months. I'm finally able to run without having a morton's neuroma cause discomfort.
I have a really wide forefoot and love my Asics, I haven't been able to switch ever!
I have wide feet. I have rather large feet for my size (5'7, size 10 1/2 shoe) I've tried ton's of shoes. What works, for me anyway, is Mizuno's anything by them. The shoes are wide, roomy at the toe and last.
Altra. Super cushy. Like running on yoga blocks.
I have wide feet and found that Brooks are wider than Saucony and Asics. I find they are the most comfortable.
New Balance come in wide sizes too.
Brook shoes don't even need to be broken in and they are comfortable! Hey they need to give me money for giving them a great plug lol!
Brooks. My brother has to get the EE width and they make them. Regular width are wide enough for my feet with a slight bunion.
From my shoe experience, Asics always had the biggest toe box for me. Mizuno, very narrow toe box. Try different lacing techniques too to get a little more give in the toes if needed. Lots of YouTube videos on lacing.
That's right, I forgot, I lace mine differently to increase my toe box. I lace my right even roomier than my left. It works well.
Brooks Ghost series and Brooks glycerine both come in wide width. I have worn both of them.
OK, with all the suggestions being thrown at me from this post, what are the ranges of $$$ these shoes will soak me for?
ON, try the cloudsurfer, they will set you back about $135 – $150.
Brooks ghost. I have a narrow heal and wide toe box. Best I've found!
Yeah I was very pleased. They were still a bit more than I was used to but worth every penny! Comfort was key!
I would be afraid to buy shoes off the internet…..looks like I am going to have to go to my local stores to check out all these find suggestions you all have given me…..
I don't think I could wear them type, I have a bunion and need the support for my heals, and unless them have a ton of padding, I really don't see them as my type. No offense, but good suggestion.
Altra! I switched from brooks to Altras and they're much wider!
Soloman has a wide toe box. You can find great deals online. Since you are trying a new sore, first go to your local store and try on several pair until you find one or two you really like. Then go online and find them for a better price. They will often be older models, but that usually just means a different color than the ones in the store.
Saucony. That's why I've run in them for the last 33 years.
I had a couple pair of saucony that were great, could no longer get them in my size (11.5). Finally found my new loves. Asics gel-cumulus 16. Wide toe box, right size. I got them for about 115.00 on sale.
Another option is to purchase "men's" running shoes. I did that when I just HAD to have neutons.
Altra has a big toe box!!! And zero drop soles.
Altras have a VERY generous toe box. They are very comfortable…but you have to be ok w the zero drop. Takes some getting used to.
I have toe issues so the bigger the toe box the better. Zero drop is a big difference from the traditional running shoe, and you need to start with them gradually. Diligent and effective calf stretching is a must after every run. But I've adjusted and they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I wear them for my long runs and non-race running. I do think, however, that I run faster in my Brooks and use those for 5ks and 10ks races – they aren't as comfortable but the soles are stiffer and more conducive to speed.
I have a bone spur on my big toe joint; my foot gets numb if the toe box is too narrow. The Altras solved the problem for me.
I'm seeing a foot specialist in July to see what the next step is, but I am going to TRY and AVOID having it removed, but the bone has sorta separated from the toe itself, making the nail turn funky colors…..
My Asics Gel Kayanos have a large toe box.
My bunion looks exactly like that yes, ouch! I Ordered the Brooks Ghost wide….perfect! I also alternate with Brooks glycerine regular width and they are wide enough for my bunions as well.

Inside The Relationship Of Actor Matt Bomer And His Husband When Simon Halls – How Did They First Meet?
Dec 3, 2022 Actor
Most celebrities love to brag about their lavish weddings and whirlwind relationships, but Matt Bomer, star of The Sinner, isn't one of them. The actor wants to keep his personal life out of the public eye. As a result, few people are aware of the actor's relationship with his husband, Simon Halls.
Yes, for almost a decade, Bomer has been married to the Hollywood publicist. The couple met in 2008, when Halls was hired as Bomer's publicist, according to sources. They hit it off right away and began dating soon after.
In 2011, they married in a small ceremony in New York, which the Magic Mike actor confirmed to Out magazine in 2014.
"It was incredibly relaxing." It's a tiny group: only our closest friends and family. There's a sense of safety and authenticity in knowing it's legal. It's difficult to express. It's just a sensation, I guess, something about exchanging vows in front of loved and supportive family and friends. "I believe it was beneficial to our family," Bomer said to the publication.
Matt Bomer's Husband: Who Is He?
The couple kept their relationship a secret until 2012, when the actor came out as gay and honored his husband during his acceptance speech for the Steve Chase Humanitarian Award. Halls, for those who are unaware, is just as successful as Bomer, albeit in a different industry.
Halls is an accomplished publicist who began his career with Warner Bros. and later spent two years working for the first McDonald's in Russia before relocating to Los Angeles. Following that, he began managing actors, including A-listers like Jude Law, Sarah Jessica Parker, and the Coen brothers.
The publicist went on to co-found two public relations businesses in Hollywood, Huvane Baum Halls and Slate PR. In 2001, Huvane Baum Halls joined with PMK, and Slate PR became the premier public relations firm in the entertainment business.
Ryan Murphy, John Wells, Neil Patrick Harris, Annette Bening, Frances McDormand, and other celebrities are represented by Slate PR. During Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, his outstanding performance earned him a spot on the Entertainment Council.
Is Matt Bomer a father?
Naturally, Bomer and his husband started a family after they married. The couple's three sons are the couple's current offspring.
Kit Halls, their oldest son, was born via surrogate in 2005 and, like Bomer, is a keen admirer of the San Francisco 49ers. In 2019, the actor claimed that when their oldest kid was 14, he came out to them as straight.
"Our eldest came out as straight to us. He's 14 years old. 'I admire and respect that you people be who you are,' he remarked. I'm a straight guy. That's how I'd describe myself.' And that was a tremendous, lovely, sweet thing at the time," Bomer remarked.
Henry and Walker Halls, the youngest twins, were born via surrogate in 2008, just like their older brother. Because of their age, Bomer and his husband keep the twins out of the spotlight, however Henry did accompany Bomer for the 2019 Tony Awards.
The actor told People in 2015 that he wanted his children to experience a regular childhood, similar to his own. He didn't want them on stage anytime soon, to be honest.

Human Rights activists oppose trip of former Internal Minister head Navumau to Switzerland
charter97.org
Well-known human rights activists from Sweden and Belarus have addressed leadership of the Swedish Ice Hockey Federation with an appeal not to allow former Internal Minister Uladzimir Navumau to Switzerland.
As informed by Radio Svaboda, the appeal has been made by the president of the initiative "Ostgruppen for demokrati och manskliga rattigheter" Martin Uggla and the head of the human rights centre "Viasna" Ales Byalatski.
"We address the Swedish federation in order to influence its Swiss colleagues and not to invite the head of the Belarusian hockey federation Uladzimir Navumau (Naumov) to the world championship. We also solicit Swiss government not to allow Navumau to enter Switzerland," the human rights watchdogs write in their letter. The address has been already published by some Swedish newspapers.
As is known, Belarus is one of the candidates for holding world hockey championship in 2014. The final decision of this issue is to be adopted at the International Hockey Federation congress on May 7-9 during the world championship in Switzerland. On May 7 contenders are to hold their final presentations, and on May 8 voting is to take place.
The events in Bern are to be visited by Uladzimir Navumau as the head of the Hockey federation of Belarus.
As noted by Martin Uggla and Ales Byalatski, Navumnau is a suspect in implication in serious human rights violations. He is on the list of the Belarusian officials for whom entry to the European Union and the US is banned.
Human rights activists remind that the former minister is linked to abductions of 4 Belarusian oppositionists, including the former Interior Minister head Yury Zakharanka. He went missing on May 7, 1999.
Now, as underlined by the Swedish and Belarusian human rights activists, Navumau hopes to visit Switzerland. Though Switzerland is not a EU member, it has supported the EU sanctions against some Belarusian politicians.

The Mississippi Writers Track included courses for students that focused on studying Delta and Mississippi writers; students became writers, singers, and story-tellers by studying the works of authors from the region, and by confronting historical burdens and influences, under the direction of a performing Blues Artist and the Poet Laureate of Mississippi, Beth Ann Fennelly.
CORE Arts Camp is a two-week residential camp held each June on the campus of Delta State University for 12-18 year old artists. Part blues study and part song-writing workshop, this course addressed thematic elements of blues lyricism and history, while also analyzing song composition and performance technique.
Students will be encouraged to create their own songs and stories, to work with their instructor as well as their peers, and to perform a collaborative piece at the final camp performance.
Beth Ann Fennelly, Poet Laureate of Mississippi, teaches in the MFA Program at the University of Mississippi.
Fennelly lead two courses at CORE Arts 2018.
The first class was a Writing Life Stories class, where students studied the autobiographical works of Mississippi writers and produced their own autobiographical pieces.
The second class was framed around blues poetry, with students producing their own pieces after having studied the works of Mississippi poets Derrick Harriell and Natasha Tretheway (United State Poet Laureate and former native of Gulfport, MS).
The Janice Wyatt Mississippi Summer Arts Institute is a series of summer camps hosted by the Bologna Performing Arts Center every year for children ages 5-11. The programs offer a variety of arts education opportunities for campers, focusing on performing, visual, digital, and literary arts.

Q: The group $\mathbb{Z}_{10}$ has precisely $4$ subgroups True/False: The group $\mathbb{Z}_{10}$ has precisely $4$ subgroups.
Solution:
True, since there are $4$ divisors $1,2,5,10$ thus it has $4$ subgroups.

A: Yes, you are correct.
NOTE: There is exactly one subgroup for each divisor as it is a property of cyclic groups.
Side Note: $A_4$, the alternating subgroup of the group of permutations of four elements ,$S_4$, has order 12 and has no subgroup of order 6

A: You are correct.
If you define $\mathbb{Z}_{10} = \mathbb{Z}/ 10\mathbb{Z}$, then this follows from the correspondence theorem: the subgroups of $\mathbb{Z}_{10}$ correspond to the subgroups of $\mathbb{Z}$ that contain $10\mathbb{Z}$, and there is exactly one such subgroup for each divisor of $10$.

If you have lost or misplaced a card, or one was never delivered to you or your company, you can request to have a replacement sent.
- The course must have been taken and completed through ClickSafety.com. We cannot reissue cards for courses not taken with us.
- The course cannot have been taken more than FIVE years ago. OSHA will not allow replacement of any card if the course was completed FIVE* or more years ago, and requires a new course to be purchased and completed before a new card can be issued.
- You must provide proof of account ownership including user name and password or have access to the email that is already on file.
- This is the first replacement card you have requested. If you had a previous replacement card and lost it, you will have to take the course over. Only one replacement card is allowed without retaking the course.
Please note also that there is no central database of OSHA card numbers. A replacement card would have a completely new card number and that card number cannot be mailed in any format other than the actual physical card.
You can log in to your account to print your temporary certificate. It is up to a job site whether they will accept it beyond the original grace period (typically 90 days from course completion), but OSHA would want to see the actual OSHA card.

New lease of life for site of former Alfred Herbert works
Last building, known as the Top Shop in its day, is being cleared to make way for industrial units
Leigh Mencarini Content Direct Editor
New life is being breathed into the former site of a world-famous manufacturer in Coventry.
Commercial property firm The Wigley Group is building 65,000 sq ft of industrial units on land which once housed the Alfred Herbert works in Edgwick Park.
The existing building on site, known as the Top Shop from its Alfred Herbert era, is in the final stages of being cleared ahead of construction getting underway on eight 5,000 sq ft units and a larger unit of 25,000 sq ft.
The three-acre site, just off the main gateway from the M6 into the city, is owned by The Wigley Group and the new development, to be known as Edgwick Point, will be built by its construction arm, Wigley Building and Development.
It forms part of a 35-acre plot bought by The Wigley Group in the late 1970s, making it the oldest investment in the company's commercial property portfolio.

Large sections have been sold over the years to companies including Gallagher Retail Park and Lidl, and the new scheme on Canal Road, just off the A444 , is the final piece in the jigsaw.
Robert Wigley, chairman of The Wigley Group, said: "When my father, who founded The Wigley Group, bought Edgwick Park from Alfred Herbert it marked the start of our venture into the commercial property market.
"It was our first investment in a portfolio which now spans well over 1,000,000 sq ft across the West Midlands and having since developed the rest of the 35-acre site, this scheme represents the last piece in the puzzle."
University of Warwick to showcase developments worth £400m on the world stage
The announcement that construction is about to start on the units comes as The Wigley Group attends MIPIM, the world's biggest property investment and development show, with the Coventry and Warwickshire MIPIM Partnership, and Midlands UK.
James Davies, managing director of The Wigley Group, said: "Coventry's profile is on the up, particularly with winning City of Culture 2021, and the regeneration of this site is a major part of our development strategy and we hope will go some way towards helping to meet the region's lack of employment land.
"There is a proven high demand for industrial space in the city, and it is that which has given us the full confidence to undertake what is a sizeable speculative development."
Mike Vining, from Vining Management, represented The Wigley Group in gaining planning permission from Coventry City Council and will oversee the construction and sale of the units as project manager.
He said: "The building that was here had really got to the end of its useful life and was no longer fit for purpose, and it is being replaced with a number of new units that will better suit modern industry."
These new MIPIM partnership members are ready to represent the region
The units are now available through commercial property agents Bromwich Hardy and GVA, ahead of expected completion in September.
Tom Bromwich, partner at Bromwich Hardy, said: "There is a pent-up demand for commercial space particularly industrial warehousing and manufacturing in Coventry and this is an opportunity for companies to buy brand new premises which they simply cannot do in the city at the moment."
Luke Thacker, associate at GVA, said: "This is a busy commercial location and there is currently a high demand for industrial units in Coventry. The units will deliver much-needed, good quality accommodation and we are excited to be involved in the scheme."

text:
Une molécule est dite protique lorsqu'elle est susceptible de donner un ion H+ à son environnement (solvant ou autre soluté). Cela arrive quand la liaison entre l'atome d'hydrogène et un autre atome de la molécule est polarisée. Cette notion est essentielle pour caractériser les solvants, les solvants protiques pouvant constituer un couple acide-base.
Une molécule qui n'est pas susceptible de donner un ion H+ est dite aprotique.

Cette notion est donc intrinsèquement liée à celles de polarité d'une molécule et de liaison hydrogène.

Conditions

Pour que le proton soit labile, il faut qu'il soit impliqué dans une liaison suffisamment polarisée. Ceci ne peut s'observer que lorsqu'il est lié à des atomes plus électronégatifs. Il s'agit dans ce cas le plus souvent de l'oxygène, mais cela concerne également le fluore et l'azote.
Dans le cas d'une liaison entre un atome d'hydrogène et un atome de carbone par exemple, la différence d'électronégativités est faible. La liaison est donc faiblement polarisée et la molécule n'est pas susceptible de céder facilement un proton. Une telle molécule n'est donc pas protique.

Exemples

Parmi les molécules protiques, on compte évidemment l'eau, mais également les alcools et thiols, les amines, les acides carboxyliques et, dans une moindre mesure, les cétones énolisables. Ce dernier cas est un cas limite. L'acétone par exemple peut certes céder un proton, mais seulement lors de l'utilisation d'une base un peu forte, par opposition aux alcools qui sont protiques en milieux acide, neutre et basique.

Parmi les molécules aprotiques, on compte notamment les alcanes, les éthers (éther éthylique, THF, dioxane…), le benzène, le toluène, le DMF… Une molécule ne portant pas d'hydrogène ne peut évidemment pas non plus être protique. C'est le cas par exemple du tétrachlorure de carbone ou du disulfure de carbone.
Les protons des fonctions aldéhydes ne sont pas labiles non plus.

Conséquences

D'un point de vue général, cette propriété est directement liée au caractère acide de la molécule : plus le pKa est faible, plus le proton est labile et donc plus la molécule est protique. Toutefois, cette notion n'est généralement attribuée qu'aux solvants, classés en trois principales catégories :

 les solvants aprotiques polaires (acétone, diméthylformamide, acétonitrile…) ;

 les solvants aprotiques apolaires (éther de pétrole, hexane…) ;

 les solvants protiques (eau, méthanol, éthanol…).

À noter au passage que les solvants protiques sont nécessairement polaires (mais la réciproque est fausse), puisque le fait qu'un proton soit labile implique que la charge partielle qu'il porte soit suffisamment forte.
Qui dit charge partielle forte, dit forcément polarité.

Discussion in 'Microphones (live or studio)' started by Paladyne, Dec 7, 2003.
These LOOK like a 47 and an M49. I could live life w/o a 49, but something that sounds like a real 47 would be great. anyone had much experience with the new school Neumanns?
THey're nowhere near the same...it's best to consider the M149 and M147 as entirely seperate entities when compared to the 49 and 47. Both the 149 and 147 are transformerless mics. The M149 is pretty decent, quite clean and clear in character (plenty of 'air'). The M147 is all about attitude (too much so in my opinion)...it's bold and forward, and bright.
I love the M49, its just not that usefull for recording punk and metal, or at least I do not like it for my tastes in punk and metal. It is a great overhead on drums, for sure, but I like my 414's and 451's enough not to shell out $7,700(what we sold Norah Jones a M49 for at Sorcerer's going out of business sale).
Now the 47's, thats another story. If I had 10 grand I might buy two of them. As far as vocals, I LIKE using a 421 or a beta 58 on vocals, like I said, its PUNK!!!
The M149 is a fantastic mic. Very clean, open, wide and 3D. It's not a hyped sounding mic. Great for vocals, overheads, room mics and acoustic instruments.
With all its polar patterns and roll-off switches it makes for a very versatile mic.
We're using a pair and couldn't be happier.
I have to say I'm totally disappointed with my M149 on vocals. It has been beaten in an A/B with my AKG C4000B, and that cannot be good. I've had to send it back to see if it is broken, but I have a feeling it's just bad.
Is it possible that the 149 is simply showing the vocalist's limitations in glaring detail? I once did two vocal sessions in one day. I used an AKG C12 on the first vocalist who is well known and insist on C12s because he sounds great on them. That night I tried the mic on a singer in a band I was producing and he sounded really throaty and bad. I put up a Shure SM7 and he was sounding great.
I own an M147 and used to own a Telefunken U47. The M147 isn't as extended in the low end frequencies as the U47. However, it is a nice flavor to have especially on acoustic instruments (guitar, upright bass). I also will use my M147 on the outside of a kick drum which is something I would be scared to do with the U47!
I originally bought a pair of M147's for overheads, but I didn't care for them in that application so I sold one and kept the other for solo instruments and the occasional vocal.
I would recommend trying one out before you buy it especially if you want it for vocals. It's not an extremely bright mic which may be good or bad for you depending on your need.
I haven't used either, but it's my gut feeling that either of these U47 emulations will beat anything that Neumann puts out today. From what I understand, Neumann has had its day.
Well at first I thought it could be the fact that my friend and I aren't the best singers, but then I tried it on a really great female singer, and we all came to the same conclusion that it was grainy and not very pleasant on any of the 3 voices.


Quad was one of the many fashion boutiques that sprang up in London in the late 1960s, when the emergence of youthful and ambitious British designers revolutionised the fashion world and became synonymous with the counter culture fashions of the time.
The advent of the 'boutique' ~ a retailing concept that radically changed how clothing was made, marketed, displayed and sold ~ endorsed an identity of individuality, freedom and rebellion which reflected the tastes of the designer or owner. Boutiques also experimented with innovative interiors, promoted creativity and informality between owners, staff and clientele and, of course, defined a new and exciting style of dressing.
Iconic names and places such as Mary Quant, Biba, Paraphernalia and Tuffin and Foale became synonymous with the King's Road and Carnaby Street while other boutiques such as Countdown, Blast Off, Top Gear, Change Down, Glad Rags, Clobber, Quorum, Ad Hoc, Lord Kitchener's Valet, Palisades and Barricades evoked the spirit of freedom and originality and ensured that London became the quirky capital of cool in the 60s and early 70s, with its radical and ultra-modern new looks...encouraging young designers to start their own boutiques while inspiring other fashion capitals to change their outlooks.
Quad was part of this new boutique culture ~ prevalent alongside more established names, it produced fabulously unusual and iconic clothing which, in keeping with the times, was romantic, dreamy and inspired by history.
Boutiques remain a vital part of fashion retail ~ whether as an individual enterprise or incorporated into a larger setting ~ and are still cherished and coveted for their independence, character and unique designs. The epitome of trend-setting during the 60s and 70s, Quad's inimitable fashions fit the contemporary mould while still evoking a particular style idyll reminiscent of revolutionary fashion shapes which typified the all-conquering 'swinging London' scene and, as such, are now adored, collected and very sought after.
Amazing vintage footage... A window on a beautiful world, a beautiful way to look at fashion. London in the 1960s and the beautiful fashion shops with it.
The most wonderful time to be in the art world was in the sixties, because it wasn't a business - there was no business of doing art.
"Music and passion were always the fashion.." ~ but it was during the 1960s that music and fashion became forever entwined and redefined for a new generation who eagerly embraced the pop culture that marked out the Swinging Sixties as a decade unlike any that had gone before.
This was a time of upheaval in politics, fashion, attitudes and music and while the 'teenager' may have been 50s borne, the 60s delivered a new-found sense of freedom as society moved away from the conservative values of the previous decade and discovered colour, flamboyance, style and ownership that gave rise to a multitude of groundbreaking fashion trends. These new looks not only mirrored the social movements of the time, but were particularly influenced by the iconography of the popstars, music, dances and the burgeoning festival scene. Music led the way in 'alternative' fashion for the young and the restless, the 'in' crowd and the trendsetters, and designers began producing clothing suitable for those eager to find their own identities. The first major fashion movement of the 60s emerged from the 'British Invasion' ~ the Beatles phenomenon (and their much emulated 'Liverpool Sound'), the Rolling Stones and many others who were enjoying immense popularity.
In the early to mid 60s, the London Modernists (the Mods) shaped a look for a British subculture of young women and men ~ a counter culture movement which became widely imitated and identified by their classy, tailored suits, Levis jeans and slim button-down shirts contrasted with their trademark anoraks. Both female and male Mods dressed very similarly and both had a sense of 'alternative cool' with their instantly recognisable customised scooters and mopeds ~ and bands such as The Who, The Kinks and The Small Faces were to emerge with a faithful following. By contrast, the Rockers of the time were still heavily influenced by 50s rock and roll icons, bringing black leather again into 1960s fashion. The decade also gave birth to drainpipe jeans, for women and men, an item that has remained forever in fashion (having latterly evolved into the 'skinny' jeans trend we are seeing again today).
TV music shows of the time featured a plethora of groups and artists from the established crooners to the up and coming rebels that were ready to revolutionise the music scene. Boy Meets Girl, Juke Box Jury, Ready Steady Go! and Shindig! were among the latter, alongside the iconic juggernaut that was Top of the Pops (first aired in 1964), a show that would later become the nostalgia-laden popfest for millions. They showcased the main chart toppers and heart-throbs of the day, among them Cilla Black, Lulu and Sandie Shaw who all played their part in defining the fashion of the era ~ and the Beatles and the Stones whose definitive 60s outfits were to have a huge influence on fashion (and music) which still endures ~ from sharp suits and Nehru jackets to velvet, brocade and 'jazz band' chic, via leather drainpipes, billowing blouses, that white 'dress' and iconic pop-art logos.
Dance crazes such as the Twist, the Mashed Potato, the Swim, the Freddie, all demanded a new freedom of movement for women and evolving fashion styles reflected this ~ the 60s saw curve hugging satin sheath dresses to match the sultry sounds of Motown and R&B, and the cute swing shifts of the sophisticated Supremes and the Detroit sound. But one image that so often defines 60s outfits, almost more than any other, is the fabulous monochrome mini dress, quirky white boots, pale lips, false eyelashes on feline flicks and hair that was bobbed and bouffant or sleek and chic. Once Mary Quant had introduced the mini-skirt in 1965, everything changed and this embodiment of 1960s fashion was popularised by chanteuses such as Sandie Shaw, Petula Clark, Cilla Black and Kathy Kirby. These young pop stars, who were becoming household names, wowed in sleeveless minis and groovy A-line and shift dresses with colour pop geometrics, big bright flower prints and patterned tights; and crop tops with hip-hugging trousers and bell bottoms (often embellished with sequins) were also seen on screen ~ while marvellous maxis and floaty frocks with billowing sleeves in velvet, chiffon and satin were modelled by the likes of Marianne Faithfull and Jane Birkin, hidden under floppy hats and layers of cool and sultry chic.
The achingly trendy style arenas of London's Kings Road and Carnaby Street gave rise to an explosion of flamboyance, flair and 'far out' fashion in 60s outfits that saw A-lines, Angel dresses, bell-bottoms, boas, capri trousers, cravats, Cuban heels, culottes, Go-Go boots, kaftans, maxis, minis, shifts, space-age, stilettos, swing coats, tunics and winklepickers parade through the decade in a refreshing riot of batik, brocade, chiffon, crocheted lace, faux fur, frills, leather, neon, PVC, paisley, patent, psychedelic prints, stripes, suede, tie-dye and velvet. 1960s fashion continued its evolution into the later decade, influenced by the growing popularity of rock and its subgenres: surf, roots, hard, psychedelic, folk ~ and the boom in music festivals.
Festivals were flourishing and artists such as Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Grace Slick shaped the Hippie movement. A sense of empowerment and liberation became apparent in 60s outfits of the time as a bohemian counterculture took hold: clothes became loose and relaxed with brightly coloured, clashing prints and patterns, bell bottoms, tunic tops and tie-dye, velvet waistcoats, flowers, frills, headbands and beads that reflected the mood and the music, while longer, looser, hair replaced the structured beehives and bouffants. This sense of idealism, freedom and optimism was captured at a moment in time which can never truly be recreated, but which will always evoke those sunny, carefree, heady days of 60s Summers and immutable music ~ represented by the gorgeously gregarious and bohemian fashions that freed the spirit and blazed a trail for generations to come.
The politically charged decade also saw the emergence of folk artists like Bob Dylan, Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell who lent their working class American values not just to their outspoken lyrics, but to their look ~ soon, fans were embracing denim, military style jackets and western-inspired shirts. Jeans became the indispensable, integral item in any self-respecting music fan's wardrobe, a discipline and a 'rock solid' fashion staple that still prevails.
became more pervasive: women blended the feminine and masculine and wore Nehru jackets with miniskirts and short sculpted haircuts; while men sported polo necks, billowing shirts, decorative scarves and skirted coats, and long flowing hairstyles. The 'dandy' look, celebrated by Brian Jones et al, became 'de rigeur' with bands who rocked the outlandish, the outré and the outrageous in tight fitting trousers and double-breasted suits of crushed velvet, brocade waistcoats and frilled shirts. This look was perfectly summed up at the Stones' Hyde Park concert of July 1969 by the 'King of Peacocks', Mick Jagger ~ his white voile smock with bishop's sleeves, ruffled neck and wrists, and bow-laced front is surely one of the outfits, alongside Mary Quant's iconic mini skirts and dresses, most redolent of the exhilaration, the empowerment, the revolution and the zeitgeist of 1960s fashion.
For the first time in history, 1960s fashion was geared towards the youth market, a trend that set the mood for the rest of the century and beyond. Styles changed more frequently than ever before (and continued to do so throughout the decade), undeniably influenced by the pop and rock stars, the ever-changing music scene and the flourishing TV and media culture that portrayed them. The music scene was the voice of the 60s generation, heavily influencing style statements that continue to impact on modern fashion in a way that perhaps no other decade has done since.

Devastating Earthquake Hits Nepal, Kills More Than 1,000
Published April 25, 2015 at 4:06 PM CDT
ARUN RATH, HOST:
It's ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR West. I'm Arun Rath. Horrendous scenes of death and destruction from Nepal today after a powerful earthquake that started outside Kathmandu and was felt as far away as India, Tibet and Bangladesh. The death toll is already in the thousands in Nepal, and the government has asked for international help in dealing with the disaster. Earlier, I spoke with Kunda Dixit. He's an editor with the Nepali Times of Kathmandu.
KUNDA DIXIT: Most of the casualties seem to be in really remote mountain villages where even the news has not really come out in detail about the devastation there. But we're hearing reports of entire villages being wiped out in landslides and so forth. Here in Kathmandu itself, the damage and destruction was not as serious as first feared. But it's a totally different story in the rest of the country.
RATH: And as we're talking it's nighttime there. How are people sheltering for the night?
DIXIT: Oh, it's - I've never seen anything like it. Hundreds of thousands of people are sleeping out in the open in tents, wrapped in blankets. Although it's early summer, it's been a really cold day all day today, threatening rain and thunderstorms. And then there's no electricity, even in the capital. Large parts of the capital have no power. So it's dark and cold, and people are out in the open.
RATH: Right now, what's getting in the way of getting help to people who need it?
DIXIT: Just the remoteness of the area where the epicenter is, and also the fact that the phones are down in those places. I just heard someone who had walked for the entire day to get to a place where he could make a phone call. And he said that 90 percent of the houses in his village have been damaged or destroyed. And there are people trapped, and there's no help at all.
RATH: In terms of these remote parts of the country, what kind of help is most urgently needed there, and how is it going to get there?
DIXIT: Well, from some of these reports I've heard, it's basically, you know, rescuing people from, you know, trapped inside collapsed buildings. Others would be access, and as I am speaking to you, we have another aftershock right now. I think - so immediate help would be evacuating the wounded and digging out the survivors from the rubble.
RATH: You mentioned you just felt an aftershock. How frequently is that happening? How many have there been?
DIXIT: Well, it's just amazing. I mean, the whole day has been like sitting in a rocking chair - more than 25, and 15 of those above five magnitude.
RATH: Wow.
DIXIT: So minor earthquakes in their own right and quite frequent.
RATH: Kunda Dixit is an editor for the Nepali Times in Kathmandu. Kunda, thank you so much, and please take care. Thank you.
DIXIT: Thanks. Thanks, Arun. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Q: List a local directory with chrome extension I'm trying to create a chrome extension which scans a local directory for new files ...
However, if I add the file://* permission to the manifest I can access the internal file browser of chrome with
xmlhttp.open("GET","file://C:/Users/username/Desktop/",false);
xmlhttp.send();
console.log(xmlhttp.response);
From the response I could extract the file URLs and use them in my extension.
My question is now: Are there other approaches? The above way seems more like a workaround and easily breaks if chrome's file browser is changed ...

A: Any time I've had to do something on the local machine from a Chrome extension, I've always created a small program that accepts connections via HTTP, and does the work as a normal program, taking commands with JSON over POST.  This gives you great flexibility, as it essentially allows you to write a Chrome extension that can do anything a desktop program can do.
However, there are great downsides to this, and you should only do it if absolutely necessary.  For instance:

*

*You can't do this for all operating systems, unless you're going to write an agent for every OS.

*The extension cannot be installed from Google's extension hosting.

*You must write your own installation program that registers the extension.

*There are very real security considerations to worry about with this.  You will be opening up a web service that executes commands.  Be very sure that you are not exposing the user.  In all reality, if you are making a file browser, you probably are exposing the user.  It will be up to you to fix this security hole, as if you were creating any other web service.

The group now has over 20 members and meets quarterly throughout the year.
Committed to supporting education and community development in Albany Park, Lauren proudly sits on the North River Commission Board of Directors and serves as the Vice President of Education.
Lauren is the creator of the 'Five Fast Facts,' a social media campaign that seeks to increase student enrollment, promote vertical integration, and combat negative stereotypes.

Columbidae (pigeons, doves; class Aves, order Columbiformes) A family of small to large birds that have soft, dense plumage, plump bodies, and small heads. The bill is short to medium with a bare cere, and the legs are generally short. Most are arboreal, though some are terrestrial, and feed mainly on seeds and fruit, regurgitating a milky fluid for their young. Green pigeons (23 species of Treron, mainly bright green birds, some with yellow, orange, and mauve markings, found in Africa, southern Asia, and Indonesia) feed on figs; their gizzards can grind up the seeds they ingest. Pigeons usually nest in a tree or on a ledge. They are gregarious, and many are migratory. Fruit doves (49 species of Ptilinopus, found in southern Asia, Australia, and the Pacific islands) are mainly green or sometimes orange with areas of contrasting colours. Quail doves (13 species of Geotrygon, found in Central and S. America) live in forests. Imperial pigeons (36 species of Ducula, found in southern Asia, Australasia, and the Pacific region) are arboreal and feed on fruit and leaves. There are 40 genera in the family, with 296 species, found worldwide. The 51 species of Columba comprise the typical pigeons (C. livia (rock dove) is the wild ancestor of the domestic pigeon) and there are seven species of Columbina (ground doves) in America. Ectopistes migratorius (passenger pigeon) is one of many extinct species. During the second half of the 20th century Streptopelia decaocto (collared dove), one of 16 Streptopelia species (turtle doves), has spread westward from Asia to colonize Europe.
