Old Town School reaches tentative teachers union deal

After nearly three years, the Old Town School of Folk Music teachers union has settled on a tentative labor contract.
Why it matters: If approved, the deal would mark the first collective bargaining agreement in the school's 65-year history.
The music school is just one of many Chicago institutions negotiating new union contracts.
Catch up fast: The union — which represents more than 200 teachers — and the school began negotiating in fall 2019. By spring 2021, a mediator had been brought in to help unstick negotiations.
The union recently turned up the pressure with a singalong rally in front of the school's Lincoln Square location to protest the slow process.
Contract details are not yet public, but Old Town management says final issues came down to pay and benefits.
What they're saying: Old Town executive director and CEO Jim Newcomb attributes the pace, in part, to special factors at the school, including the fact that neither of the parties "had been through negotiations before."
"Old Town is a pretty unique organization, so we could not find good, clean comparables at other organizations," Newcomb tells Axios. "We had to create the contract from whole cloth."
He says the new agreement allows the school to improve its "compensation package, provide greater job security and benefits, and … not overburden our tuition rates."
The other side: In a statement to Block Club Chicago, union presidents Bill Brickey and Jessica Martino called it a "historic day" for teachers who have "sown and nurtured the seeds of equity since our school's inception."
What's next: The union is expected to vote on the contract this month.
"This is a good thing for the school. It helps us put to rest some long-argued disagreements and retain the best teachers in the country," Newcomb says. "With its ratification, we will be able to look forward to years of labor peace."

Q: Find string enclosed within special characters using regex I have a text file which contains the data from which I am trying to extract the part of data which is enclosed within $$. I am trying to figure out what should be the regex expression to find such strings in the file.
For example, the document have the following data.
This is the stackoverflow website. $$ I am looking for some web developers $$, $$ Fox jumps over the white dog $$.

For the above example the output should be.

*

*I am looking for some web developers

*Fox jumps over the white dog

A: You may use this gnu awk with custom RS:
awk -v RS=' *\\$\\$ *' '!(NR % 2)' <<< "$str"

I am looking for some web developers
Fox jumps over the white dog

*

*RS=' *\\$\\$ *' splits input into multiple records with $$ and optional spaces on either side as record separator

*!(NR % 2) prints a even numbered record which is the text surrounded by $$ on both sides.

Alternatively this gnu grep may also work:
grep -oP '(?<=\$\$ ).*?(?= \$\$)' <<< "$str"

A: With GNU grep:
$ grep -Po '\$\$.*?\$\$' file.txt
$$ I am looking for some web developers $$
$$ Fox jumps over the white dog $$

Use -P to use Perl regexes so we can use the ? modifier to make .* non-greedy. Use -o to print out each matching substring on a separate line.

A: If Perl is your option, please try:
perl -0777 -ne 'while (/\$\$(.+?)\$\$/sg) {print $1, "\n"}' file.txt

It allows the strings in interest to span over lines although I'm not sure
if it is a requirement or not.

After a nine-year journey, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft is nearing its closest approach of Pluto. The event will be humankind's first ever encounter with the dwarf planet, which will mark the end of "firsts" in our exploration of the original solar system.
New Horizons is zipping toward Pluto, the smallest and most distant "planet" in our solar system (736 miles across and 3 billion miles away, orbiting the sun only every 248 years).
These days Pluto is classified as a "dwarf planet," a.k.a "oh jeez there are a lot of weird planet-like things out there, what even are they," and we now know it sits on the inner edge of the Kuiper Belt.
Pluto may be our official destination, but the Kuiper Belt in general is no less exciting: It's the farthest region of our solar system, discovered in 1992, and it contains the cold debris of our system's formation. Scientists estimate that it could have hundreds of thousands of bodies larger than 62 miles across, many of them perhaps close to Pluto in size. We already know that one, Eris, is more massive than Pluto -- just not as wide across. Comets probably number in the trillions.
When New Horizons zips past Pluto at over 30,000 miles per hour on Tuesday, it's going to give us our first good look at a very interesting neighborhood.
If Pluto is so cool, shouldn't it become a planet again?
Noooo, stop asking this, please.
Look: There are a lot of worthwhile things in our solar system that aren't planets. Maybe New Horizons will find something so interesting that the powers that be will decide to redefine what makes a "planet" yet again.
But it probably won't, and that really doesn't matter, and please don't get hung up on it! Dwarf planets are no less exciting than planets. The categorization is just humankind's way of trying to understand the multitude of amazing and unique objects in the solar system. Love Pluto for what it is -- Pluto. Call it whatever you want. Keep it in your heart as the unofficial ninth planet in the solar system. Refuse to drop the "p" from your planetary mnemonic devices.
Just please, please, don't think that Pluto's importance hinges on how scientists classify it. And don't think that Pluto's reclassification in any way diminishes New Horizons -- Pluto hasn't changed since the spacecraft launched, and it hasn't gotten any less interesting! We've just come to understand the solar system a little bit better -- and hopefully, after this week, we'll understand it just a little bit more.
The flyby itself -- that is, the closest approach to Pluto, after which the spacecraft will keep shooting into the Kuiper Belt -- is set to occur at 7:49 a.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, July 14.
But we won't know for sure that it happened until later for a couple of reasons: First of all, when an object is 3 billion miles away, it's not going to be able to send an instantaneous report back to Earth. Right now New Horizons has a communications delay of a little over four hours.
But there's a bigger problem: To get its best pictures and observations of Pluto, the spacecraft has to point its equipment away from Earth. It can't look at Pluto and look at us at the same time. Once it's done doing science, it has to readjust so it's capable of communicating with mission control again.
If everything goes as planned, mission control will get a small packet of data sometime around 9 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday. Keep an eye on the blog -- we'll make sure you know how to watch live.
There is of course a chance that something will go wrong, and that we'll never actually hear back from New Horizons after it meets Pluto for the first time. That's why Tuesday is going to be so suspenseful, and also why I'll definitely be crying at some point no matter what happens.
The Planetary Society's Emily Lakdawalla explains the downlink process (and the actual data we'll be waiting for) in more detail on her blog.
When will we see Pluto?
But it's true that the photos taken during the actually flyby will blow these out of the water. You can expect one last pre-flyby pic at around 8 or 9 a.m. Eastern time on Tuesday (just when we're starting to really bite our nails), and the first official flyby pic will come online sometime on Wednesday, July 15 -- we hope around 3 p.m. Eastern time.
Spirit of exploration isn't a good enough reason for you? Fine.
Pluto and the other objects in the Kuiper Belt are considered remnants of the very first days of the solar system. They've also stayed very, very cold for the past 4.6 billion years, which means they haven't changed as much as objects closer to the sun. By examining the atmosphere and composition of Pluto and its moons, scientists may learn things that can inform our models of the formation of the solar system. You can read more about that here.
If New Horizons stays healthy during its flyby, it might get funding for an extended mission. NASA has already picked a few Kuiper Belt objects that might be good targets, and if the extension is approved, then New Horizons may burn some of its remaining fuel to reorient itself toward a new destination. We'll be getting a close look at Pluto and its largest moon Charon, and a glimpse of the dwarf planet's tinier moons -- but the more Kuiper Belt objects we can see, the better.
If you're wondering why we're flying by instead of orbiting, check out this earlier post.
I'm soooo glad you asked. You can start by following me on Twitter, because I'll be hustling to give you constant Pluto updates all week. I also retweet a lot of the other space dorks you should be following, so you can make your social media feeds as Pluto-centric as you please.
You should also follow WashingtonPost on Snapchat, because we'll be sending you some fun updates that way on Tuesday. Consider downloading Periscope as well, so you can make sure you don't miss my livestreams from the mission center (though we'll be putting a lot of those online later, so don't worry if you're not glued to your phone).
And of course you'll also want to follow the official New Horizons Twitter account and the one run by principal investigator Alan Stern.


To meet the justice support needs of a growing rural high desert region of one of the largest and most populous urban counties in the United States, and to architecturally design the new construction to accurately reflect the local character, the fundamental strength of the institution, as well as the progressiveness of the County's judiciary body.
A new courthouse, situated in the geographical heart of the rural area, comprised of a four-storey structure of 382,000 gross square feet designed to house twenty-one (21) Superior Courtrooms and numerous county support departments, including the Sheriff's Department, District Attorney's Offices, Public Defender's Offices, Probation Department, Jury Services, etc.
Through overall massing and blending of exterior materials and finishes compatible with the surrounding desert elements, the completed structure meets specific aesthetic, performance, durability and maintenance objectives. And, perhaps most importantly, the new courthouse brings the county's rural population symbolically closer to its urban core while providing a lasting monument that uniquely reflects the region's character.
The use of precast concrete panels provided the hardened secure building envelope required for all new County public buildings. Since the catastrophic Oklahoma City event in 1995, many enforcement and jurisdictional agencies including this County owner have raised building design guidelines for Public Buildings to safely preserve, protect and evacuate occupants.
During the design process it was determined that reinforced concrete panels would mitigate many structural failure, penetration, and accessibility issues raised by the County's Building and Sheriff's Departments. By its nature, reinforced concrete resists penetration while absorbing a significant amount of energy. These performance qualities serve well to preserve the overall structural integrity while protecting building occupants from volatile intrusion.
Precast concrete panels provided the most protection for the longest period of time in the most economical manner. Several other exterior cladding materials were studied including poured in-place concrete, masonry walls, GFRC and metal panels. These other materials were all proven to either decrease usable space, decrease flexibility, reduce durability or increase costs compared to an architectural precast concrete solution.
The Courthouse is located in a relatively active seismic area. The structural engineer's concept was to design a braced frame structural steel building with some flexibility to absorb energy and ground motion. It was determined early in the design process, that masonry units and metal panels typically damage easier than concrete, and cast-in-place concrete was not flexible enough. The use of large span architectural precast concrete panels simplified erection, accommodated the floor-to-floor heights, allowed more storey drift, and reduced costs.
The Courthouse is located adjacent to a regional airport utilized by commercial and military interests. The high noise levels caused by the air traffic (especially the high-performance military aircraft using the airfield) presented unique acoustical challenges for the project that had to be mitigated by the building envelope.
Because of concrete's natural sound attenuation properties, the precast concrete panels and roof structure had only to be treated with inexpensive interior drywall, studs and insulation to meet sound transmission ratings (STC) stipulated by the Courthouse Design Program. The glazed areas of the building, on the other hand, used much more expensive acoustical and composite high performance assemblies to comply with the acoustical ratings.
The design program indicated this building needed to have a useful life span of at least fifty (50) years with minimal repair and maintenance costs. Precast concrete panels traditionally have been proven to stand the test of time with little maintenance.
The on-going maintenance of the precast concrete panels will be relatively low for a public building located in a relatively remote area of the County. The only anticipated maintenance is normal weather protection caulking of the precast panels and the occasional re-application of anti-graffiti coatings for the perimeter ground floor.
One of the design team's early concerns was that the building would be subjected to the harsh environmental forces of the high desert: high winds, wide temperature swings, typically dry conditions, but subject to torrential rainfall and occasional flash flooding. The design concept was to anticipate, mitigate, and, when possible, use these naturally deteriorating environmental conditions to actually further blend this large structure into the surrounding desert landscape.
Environmentally, due to prevailing winds and sandy conditions, the building is subject to almost daily natural sandblasting, which was one of the primary reasons for using integral colored concrete and penetrating concrete stains. Given the normally dry conditions, discoloring and leaching will likely be minimal. However, as they occur over time, these conditions will blend in and likely enhance the long term aesthetics of the precast panels since the integral and multiple penetrating-stained colors offer a range of acceptability in terms of matching the surrounding landscape.
Given torrential rainstorms in the spring, the design team took additional precautions in terms of potential incidental water intrusion caused by joint and window leaks. An innovative, patent-pending "secondary drainage system" designed and installed by Clark Pacific, collects and drains incidental moisture penetration to the exterior. It provides an additional line of defense and potentially reduces the chance of interior water damage and any subsequent mold development. The extruded silicone system is 100% compatible with the exterior silicone sealants and has a one-way check valve that minimizes air and water infiltration back into the building at the drain valve. The system significantly enhances the ability of the envelope to protect the building's contents.
After numerous cost analyses by the general contractor, it was determined that the precast concrete wall assembly would be the most economical for use as a cladding material and envelope enclosure. Based on the size, location, availability and costs of skilled labor, all other building envelope and cladding systems proved to be more expensive, more restrictive, and more time- and labor-intensive. Additionally, off-site fabrication allowed for accelerated construction schedules that reduced time, costs, and other overhead associated with the overall envelope installation. Precast concrete was the most cost-effective solution for the project.
The use of architectural precast allowed the design team to develop a color and finish palette that complemented the surrounding high desert. The integral color concrete matched the local desert floor, while the unique replicated sandstone finish brought the look and feel of sandstone to the structure in a very efficient and cost effective manner.
The story of how this monumental structure drew its design inspiration from the environment, and how it was engineered and built of precast concrete is a story of innovation, ingenuity, and inspiration for the industry.
Working in concert, the architects and Clark Pacific developed a process to economically produce architectural panels that replicated the look of real sandstone and developed color mixes to match the palette of the desert floor.
Clark Pacific and the architects made trips to different quarries seeking and eventually finding sandstone veneers with the right amount of relief (1/4" – 3/8") to replicate a cleft stone finish, without compromising the structural integrity of the precast panels and embed plates.
A few pallets of sandstone with the appropriate relief were ordered and delivered to Clark Pacific. Clark Pacific made numerous rubber mat molds from the stone veneers in various sizes and shapes (from single pieces to series sets) which could then be randomly elevated, rotated, and mixed and matched within each precast concrete panel to ensure a natural, random appearance, and limit overall image redundancy.
In this research and development phase, Clark Pacfic experimented with various aesthetic treatments, crafting innovative solutions to achieve ever more "natural" appearance in the replicated product. In this way, for instance, a more "natural" edge was achieved.
The architects and Clark Pacific developed numerous colored mock-up panels (testing various integral colors and stains in combination) to produce the right mix of desert color hues. Various stone aggregates were also tested in order to best replicate the natural sandstone surface appearance.
The two integral colors eventually chosen for the project were a terra cotta red and a yellow sandstone. Palettes of complementary colors were likewise developed for each of the integral colors. These colors were used in the penetrating stains which were randomly applied to blocks and clefting on each architectural precast panel.
The final finishing process involved a light sandblasting of the entire panel to ensure some color and overall finish continuity across the replicated stones.
Clark Pacific's engineering staff and craftsmen designed an algorithm to ensure random patterns across the face of the structure. Besides using individual stone mats as well as series stone mats, they also altered mat orientation within panels to vary the relief pattern. The relief patterns on the mats were alternately reduced or increased through the random use of miscellaneous filler inserts and, after initial curing, penetrating stains of complementary colors were applied to further randomize the pattern and appearance of the replicated sandstone.
This elaborate up-front design activity allowed Clark Pacfic and the architects to maximize a few pallets, and turn 1,200 square feet of quarried stone into 50,000 square feet of replicated sandstone façade.
Clark Pacific developed various specialty pieces, including one-piece corner molds with return faces for exposed columns covers. Single piece hybrid finish parapet forms and panels were also developed – using replicated stone and a second color parapet detail with medium sandblast finish. Radius C-channel panels were created to span the main entrance rotunda.
In a little over four years from initial design to occupancy, a Courthouse rose from the desert floor. More important than aesthetically reflecting the character and hue of its environment, the new courthouse brings the County's rural population symbolically closer to its urban core while providing a lasting monument that uniquely reflects the region's character.
The creation of replicated sandstone panels has established a new and more affordable market for the precast concrete industry in this region. The aesthetic qualities of multi-colored stone replicated finishes will offer design teams new economical cladding solutions for many years to come.

Anandi Gopal Joshi, who also goes by the names 'Anandibai Gopalrao Joshi' and 'Anandibai Joshi',was born in Kalyan in present day Maharashtra's Thane district on March 31, 1865. Anandi Joshi was originally named 'Yamuna', and kept that name till her marriage, after which, her husband - Gopalrao Joshi - gave her the name 'Anandi'. As was custom during the mid-nineteenth century, Yamuna (Anandi) was pressured to marry at a very young age - nine. She married Gopalrao Joshi, a widower who was nearly 30 years old at the time. He was a postal clerk in the same town where Yamuna (Anandi) used to live.Though he had married a child, a criminal offence in today's day and age but not considered so in the mid-nineteenth century, Gopalrao Joshi was a strong su
Super 30 - The Dream Of A Man To Support Poor Students Education
Super 30 is a prestigious Indian educational program started in Patna, India under the banner of Ramanujan School of Mathematics. It was co-founded by Abhayanand, a 1977 batch IPS officer and, Anand Kumar, a maths teacher in the year 2002. The program claims to select 30 meritorious and talented candidates each year from economically backward sections of society and trains them for the JEE. History In 2002, Abhayanand and Anand Kumar started Super 30 - the idea was to select 30 talented students from economically impoverished sections who could not afford IIT coaching. These 30 students were then prepared to crack IIT-JEE examinations. Anand Kumar's Mother - Jayanti Devi - volunteered to cook for the students while Anand, Abhayanand and other teachers tutored them. The students were also provided study materials and lodging for a year free of cost. In the first year of the coaching, 18 out of 30 students made it to IIT. The following year application numbers soared due
The Perfect Example That Success Can Come To Anyone Anytime!
Rowling is the perfect example that success can come to anyone at any time. She is now doing the backstroke through a pool of Harry Potter money, but that was not always the case. Before Harry Potter became a success she was a divorced mother, living on welfare, going to school and trying to write a novel in her spare time. Rowling herself said she was the "biggest failure I knew" and credits a lot of her success to her failure. At a Harvard commencement speech Rowling had this to say, "Failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending to myself that I was anything other than what I was, and began to direct all my energy to finishing the only work that mattered to me. Had I really succeeded at anything else, I might never have found the determination to succeed in the one area where I truly belonged. I was set free, because my greatest fear had been realized, and I was still alive, and I still had a daughter whom I adored, and I had an old typewriter, and a
Inventions & Discoveries Which Will Make Every Indian Proud - Made In India !
India owes a lot to the world when it comes to number of inventions which took place over the time and centuries ago. India, has always been a step ahead then the western world; be it Science, Mathematics, Medical Science or Archaeological mastery. As India celebrated its 71st Independence Day on 15-Sep-2018, we look back at things which were 'Made in India' and those inventions and discoveries which will make every Indian proud. 1. Yoga Yoga, yes you hear it right! Swami Ramdev on Aastha channel in morning may sound a cliché for Indians, but the truth is that Yoga has its origins in India and has existed for over 5,000 years. 2. Martial Arts Bruce Lee is what rings in your ears when you hear about Martial Arts. But you'll be surprised to know that Martial Arts were first created/ practiced in India and then later spread to China and then to the world by Buddhist missionaries. 3. Anaesthesia Well, the world came to know Anaethesia in the 13th century

Q: How to properly manage large amount of images in iOS In my application i display quite a large amount of images approximately 200, sooner or later I'm getting memory warning but I don't know what to do next
I have a subclass of UIImageView that downloads images asynchronously and displays them like this
self.image = [[[UIImage alloc] initWithData:receivedData] autorelease];

How and when should I clean up the memory?
Thanks in advance.

A: Try use a small images in list. On click on small image, show a large image. Try use optimization methods for this case:)

A:
once all images are downloaded they are all on the screen

Composite what you can (into one image), ideally on the server side so you have less to download, load into memory, and render on the client side.
As well, make sure the images are the size you will draw them at. This can save a lot of memory and also processing (unless you are using shoddy or fast rescaling).
There's a lot of context missing in your post. If a solution were universal and trivial, would you not assume there's a good chance it's already being used by the system's frameworks?

Road salt is harmful to the environment. What are some alternatives?
Michigan's winter is here, and that means road salt.
It is terrible for the environment. What can we do to stop it?
Sunday Read is ClickOnDetroits Sunday news review to help readers catch up on some of the most important topics of the week.
Salty about road salt
I love salt as much a man can. My blood pressure doesn't like salt. But in winter, sodium levels on roads are increasing rapidly, and this is also raising Mother Nature's blood pressure.
When we get our first snow/ice event in Michigan the salt trucks are dispatched onto the freeways or side streets (depending where you live) and spray salt in every direction.
It is not new to use salt on winter roads. It was first used in the United States in 1938 as an experiment in New Hampshire. In the winter of 1941-1942New Hampshire started using salt on its roads and highways in 1996. Soon thereafter, salt was adopted by other states across the country and they began to treat their roads with salt.
Salt is one the most abundant natural resources in Michigan. The salt deposits that lie below Detroit and throughout Michigan are formed approximately 400 million years ago. The salt mines under Detroit were discovered in 1895.
The Detroit Salt Mine, originally located in Detroit Salt and Manufacturing CompanyIt was opened in 1906. It has changed hands and technology several times over the years. Many still recall the open tours of these mines. Open tours of the mines are no more, but salt mining is still alive and well.
Detroit Salt. (Ken Haddad/WDIV)
It's not an easy task to give up salt. However, there are viable alternatives being tested in other areas. This could help our environment as well as wildlife.
Why road salt is so bad
Road salt can contaminate drinking waters, kill or endanger wildlife and increase soil erosion. It can also damage private and publicly owned property. According to the EPA.More information from the agency:
Sodium Chloride (NaCl), also known as table salt, is the most commonly used substance for deicing roads.
Rock salt is extremely effective at melting snow and other ice and is inexpensive. Rock salts are inexpensive, but they can cause damage to property, infrastructure, the environment, and other properties. Even though rock salt seems harmless, large amounts can cause corrosion to vehicles, trucks, bridges and roads. Annual repairs of $5 billionOnly in the U.S.
Road salt can also infiltrate groundwater and surface water, and can contaminate wells and drinking water reservoirs. High sodium levels in water can lead to high blood pressure. Some fish, insects, and amphibians are sensitive to high levels of chlorine in surface waters.
Road salt also accumulates on roadsides and causes damage to wildlife. Salty roads can also attract animals like deer or moose who love to lick the salt, increasing the chances of accidents and roadkill.
Alternatives to road salt
Cost and volume are the biggest obstacles to finding alternatives to salt road salt. To cover roads and freeways in any given state, you will need a lot of the same substance. Also, it is difficult to find alternatives to road salt that are significantly more expensive.
Magnesium chlorineide (MgCl), although considered safer than NaCl is twice as expensive and covers the same area. CaCl is more cost-effective than NaCL but is safer for the planet. It is therefore often used in sensitive areas. There are other ideas, however:
Porous pavement
A new engineering method is being tested in Northeast. It shows promise. Permeable, porous pavement allows water to seep in, removing water from roads. (You may have seen potholes.)
It's an alternative to traditional pavers that include materials such as pervious asphalt, pervious concrete or interlocking paving pavers. It allows rainwater and snowmelt to seep beneath the surface to the gravel and soil layers below. It can also be used to Function as a filter, preventing pollutants from entering water sources.
Traditional asphalt on left; porous Asphalt on right (EPA)
It can, in fact, reduce the need for road salt. A recent studyIt was found that porous pavement had a three-fold lower annual snow/ice cover than regular pavement. This led to a 77% decrease in the amount of salt required for maintenance. (More studies, info here).
Solar roads
A road Although it may sound strange, engineered solar panels could be the future.
The potential to convert every road into a source for renewable energy is possible with solar road technology. This technology could not only provide an additional energy source but also melt ice and snow using heat from pipes embedded in the road.
This technology could be a game changer for electric vehicles. Michigan is already preparing to test it on electrified roads.
Related: Whitmer: Michigan will build the nation's first electrified road for EVs
There are obvious issues here like the tilt of panels, shading, dirt, and debris issues, and the thickness of glass to withstand traffic. Results were mixedYou can find case studies from all over the world.
Department of Environment: Sea Urchins are dying off in the Caribbean
Brine or juice the road
Don't forget your Thanksgiving turkey! Instead, brine the roads. Since 2012, Rhode Island has been brining roads with a salt-water solution. This is also known as antiicing. It prevents frost formation on pavement.
Some are using pickle juice, beet and molasses as a way to slow down ice formation. The solution becomes sticky and prevents salty water from splashing onto roads and into the drinking water system.
Though, This may not be a good idea for insects or other animals. It could cause havoc in the ecosystem if you dump a lot of beet pulp into a lake. (It can also attract wildlife to the roadway. Like moose!)
What about sand?
Some municipalities have switched from salt-sand to a salt-sand mixture. While sand does not melt ice, it can increase traction in icy conditions.
But, as the EPA notesAfter the snow or ice melts the remaining sand gets washed away, clogging catch basins or other waterbodies with sediment. This requires additional manpower and money in order to maintain the basins clean.
A more targeted approach?
One option is to limit salt consumption. We have the technology! New Hampshire's road salt initiativeIt includes upgrading equipment so salt is spread only using closed loop systems. This allows operators to accurately release and monitor salt application, lower speed limits during snow/ice events and mandatory use of snow tires in winter.
This question does not have a single answer. It'll likely be a mix of solutions. It is clear that road salt cannot be used forever. The longer we wait, the more damage we do to the environment.
You can also find eco-friendly salt for your house and walkways. Here's a great list.

You've probably heard that you should try to eat the rainbow each day, and there are lots of ways to keep yourself accountable with that goal. My friend, Sarah (yep, same one who made this!), keeps it nice and simple with a white board on her fridge listing every food color. As she eats a serving, she marks it on the board. That way, if evening comes and she realizes she's short on, say, red, it's easy enough for her to snack on some strawberries.
But do you really know what all those fruit and veggie colors mean for you in terms of nutrition?
The folks at EveryNutrient put together this nifty infographic that we're kind of loving. It breaks it all down so it's super simple to see why it's important to nosh on a variety of colorful eats each day.
It's one thing to know what these foods offer — it's another to understand just what they do for you, right?
Thank you for dedicate to healthy lifestyle.
It's easy, right? Just by color we know what we need to eat to replenish our bodies. Thank you for your article. I need vitamins C, yellow and orange fruits like bananas and carrot are everywhere.

Silicon carbide oxygen plasma surface treatment
Categories:Industry News
(Summary description)Compared with other high temperature materials, silicon carbide has lower average thermal expansion coefficient, higher thermal conductivity and better ultra-high temperature resistance performance, so it has a broad application prospect in high frequency, high power, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance semiconductor devices and ULTRAVIOLET detectors. Bonding is a very important step in silicon carbide micromachining and MEMS technology, and also one of the difficult problems in manufacturing industry. As for the direct bonding of silicon carbide, the problems of mismatching of thermal expansion coefficient and electrical properties when different materials are connected under high temperature environment are solved, and the isomer of silicon carbide can be directly combined together to form heterojunction devices. Heterojunction has many advantages over homogeneous junction. For example, compared with schottky transistors, heterojunction fET can obtain lower leakage current. Heterojunction bipolar transistors can improve emission efficiency, reduce base resistance, improve frequency response, and have a wide operating temperature range. Among them, the surface treatment is a key factor in the direct bonding and its treatment effect is good or bad will directly affect the bonding can occur, and the interface effect, after the bonding because pollutants adsorption on the chip surface, the wafer surface roughness, etc., will cause the bonding hole, and the mechanical properties and electrical properties of the chip surface varying degrees of impact. At present, the surface treatment methods of silicon carbide mainly include traditional wet treatment, high temperature annealing and plasma treatment. The traditional wet washing treatment is developed from the wet process of silicon, which mainly includes HF method and RCA method, each of which has its own characteristics. For example, the wet treatment steps are simple, but the results include pollutants like C, O, and F; High temperature treatment can effectively remove C and O pollutants, but the treatment temperature needs to be further optimized and the subsequent process compatibility is poor. Plasma treatment can effectively remove pollutants containing O and F, but improper treatment temperature and time will lead to ion damage to the surface, resulting in surface reconstruction of silicon carbide. According to the characteristics of the above surface treatment methods, the wafers were treated by wet cleaning, oxygen and argon plasma treatment, and the wafers were bonded directly with silicon carbide melting point at low temperature and low pressure by hot pressing method, and the ideal bonding effect was achieved. Plasma surface treatment equipment treatment: further treatment of plasma in practical applications can reduce the roughness of the chip, increase the activation degree of the chip, and obtain more suitable for direct bonding. It can be seen from the theory of binding to solid surface that when there are a lot of unsaturated bonds on the surface of the chip, the foreign is easy to bond to it. The surface hydrophilicity and adsorption properties of the chip can be changed by plasma treatment. Plasma surface excitation technology only changes the surface layer of the chip, but does not change the mechanical, electrical and mechanical properties of the material itself. The plasma treatment method has the characteristics of no pollution, simple process, fast speed and high efficiency. After many experiments, specific schemes of oxygen and argon treatment were obtained, and they were successfully applied in the subsequent bonding process. Oxygen and argon are polymerized gas, plasma interacts with silicon dioxide layer on the surface of the wafer, the activity of these atoms and high energy electron destroyed the original si-o bond structure, make it a key bridge, surface activation energy and leads to the electronic combination of excited atoms and can move to a higher, make its surface there are a lot of hanging key, and these key overhang and combined with OH groups form, form a stable structure. After the surface of SI-OH is soaked in organic or inorganic alkali and anneal at a certain temperature, the bonding bond is dehydrated and polymerized to form silicon-oxygen bond, which enhances the surface hydrophilicity of the chip and is more conducive to the bonding of the chip. The hydrophilic wafer surface is superior to the hydrophobic wafer surface in spontaneous bonding.

At present, the surface treatment methods of silicon carbide mainly include traditional wet treatment, high temperature annealing and plasma treatment. The traditional wet washing treatment is developed from the wet process of silicon, which mainly includes HF method and RCA method, each of which has its own characteristics. For example, the wet treatment steps are simple, but the results include pollutants like C, O, and F; High temperature treatment can effectively remove C and O pollutants, but the treatment temperature needs to be further optimized and the subsequent process compatibility is poor. Plasma treatment can effectively remove pollutants containing O and F, but improper treatment temperature and time will lead to ion damage to the surface, resulting in surface reconstruction of silicon carbide. According to the characteristics of the above surface treatment methods, the wafers were treated by wet cleaning, oxygen and argon plasma treatment, and the wafers were bonded directly with silicon carbide melting point at low temperature and low pressure by hot pressing method, and the ideal bonding effect was achieved.
Plasma surface treatment equipment treatment: further treatment of plasma in practical applications can reduce the roughness of the chip, increase the activation degree of the chip, and obtain more suitable for direct bonding. It can be seen from the theory of binding to solid surface that when there are a lot of unsaturated bonds on the surface of the chip, the foreign is easy to bond to it. The surface hydrophilicity and adsorption properties of the chip can be changed by plasma treatment. Plasma surface excitation technology only changes the surface layer of the chip, but does not change the mechanical, electrical and mechanical properties of the material itself. The plasma treatment method has the characteristics of no pollution, simple process, fast speed and high efficiency. After many experiments, specific schemes of oxygen and argon treatment were obtained, and they were successfully applied in the subsequent bonding process. Oxygen and argon are polymerized gas, plasma interacts with silicon dioxide layer on the surface of the wafer, the activity of these atoms and high energy electron destroyed the original si-o bond structure, make it a key bridge, surface activation energy and leads to the electronic combination of excited atoms and can move to a higher, make its surface there are a lot of hanging key, and these key overhang and combined with OH groups form, form a stable structure. After the surface of SI-OH is soaked in organic or inorganic alkali and anneal at a certain temperature, the bonding bond is dehydrated and polymerized to form silicon-oxygen bond, which enhances the surface hydrophilicity of the chip and is more conducive to the bonding of the chip. The hydrophilic wafer surface is superior to the hydrophobic wafer surface in spontaneous bonding.
Silicon carbide oxygen plasma surface treatment:
Compared with other high temperature materials, silicon carbide has lower average thermal expansion coefficient, higher thermal conductivity and better ultra-high temperature resistance performance, so it has a broad application prospect in high frequency, high power, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance semiconductor devices and ULTRAVIOLET detectors. Bonding is a very important step in silicon carbide micromachining and MEMS technology, and also one of the difficult problems in manufacturing industry. As for the direct bonding of silicon carbide, the problems of mismatching of thermal expansion coefficient and electrical properties when different materials are connected under high temperature environment are solved, and the isomer of silicon carbide can be directly combined together to form heterojunction devices. Heterojunction has many advantages over homogeneous junction. For example, compared with schottky transistors, heterojunction fET can obtain lower leakage current. Heterojunction bipolar transistors can improve emission efficiency, reduce base resistance, improve frequency response, and have a wide operating temperature range.

Two sizeable projects got the green light from Ottawa's planning committee Thursday.
The committee gave its thumbs-up to the proposal for a $40-million sound stage off Woodroffe Avenue in Nepean, which required approval for changes to Greenbelt lands.
The joint project between the Ottawa Film Office and Toronto-based TriBro Studios will occupy 8.4 hectares of space previously used by Agriculture Canada and will feature four 20,000-square-foot sound stages plus space for workshops and post-production work. When finished around mid-2020, the sound stage is expected to create some 500 jobs in the film production and animation sector, according to the city.
Closer to the downtown core, planning committee also approved zoning and official plan changes to accommodate the heights of a multi-tower proposal for the Booth Street Complex. That proposal would see multiple towers as high as 25 storeys rise above 6.5 acres of land bordered by Rochester, Orangeville, Booth and Norman streets. The mixed-use development, which also contains plans for green space, will feature more than one million square feet for residential, commercial and retail use.
A rendering of Canada Lands Co.'s Booth Street redevelopment proposal.
The space, owned by the Canada Lands Company, is currently home to numerous vacant laboratories and government facilities. Canada Lands is a federal Crown corporation that's responsible for selling surplus government properties to maximize both the community value of the land as well as the financial return to taxpayers.
The full proposal would see many of the land's heritage buildings maintained and restored alongside the new builds.
Contaminated land beneath the proposed development requires remediation before construction can begin. A CLC representative told OBJ last summer that once the land has been remediated, the property will be sold off in parcels to private developers, likely between 2020 and 2022.

In the fourth all-California final, Jack Renner, 17, of San Diego, defeated Michael Brannan, of Salinas, the 1971 Champion, in 20 holes, over the Willow Glen course of the Singing Hills Country Club, El Cajon, Calif. It was the first final match to go extra holes in 26 years of the Championship. Renner was three down after 14 holes against Brannan and he caught him at the 18th. He holed birdie putts of 10 feet on both the 15th and 16th, halved the 17th, and won the 18th when Brannan missed a 3½ footer.
Both boys birdied the 19th hole, Brannan from 30 feet and Renner from nine. Renner won the 20th with a par 4; Brennan was just off the green in three, 22 feet from the hole. He putted and missed. No Champion has ever repeated. Brannan was, however, only the third player to reach the final twice. Eddie Pearce was Champion in 1968 and runner-up in 1969, while Mason Rudolph was runner-up in 1949 and Champion in 1950.
The Willow Glen course was the longest -6,935 yards -ever used for the Junior Championship. Two other records were tied in the qualifying rounds. Robert Donald, of Athens, Ga., score 71-68-139, equalling the marks set by John Miller in 1964 at the Eugene (Ore.) Country Club. The 68 and the 139 total are both record scores. The entry totaled 1,325.
