Q: How can I do Exchange data of two labels on drag and drop in C# WPF? I want to do something like
 I have two Labels
A              ..............               ...........   B
______    ...........   _______
|  RED   |    .......... | GREEN  |
 ----------   ..........      -----------
When I drag A on B OR B on A the text of both exchange
A              ..............               ...........   B
______    ........... ...   _____
|  GREEN|    .......... | RED |
 ----------   ............... ---------
I have done a little of it
main window

When I drag and drop the text from the code comes on the drop label
When I drag red on green:

My Code:
    private void Label_MouseDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
    {
        Label lblFrom = e.Source as Label;

        if (e.LeftButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed)
            DragDrop.DoDragDrop(lblFrom, lblFrom.Content, DragDropEffects.Copy);
    }

    private void Label_QueryContinueDrag(object sender, QueryContinueDragEventArgs e)
    {
        Label lblFrom = e.Source as Label;

        if (!e.KeyStates.HasFlag(DragDropKeyStates.LeftMouseButton))
            lblFrom.Content = "RED";

    }

    private void Label_Drop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
    {
        string draggedText = (string)e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.StringFormat);

        Label toLabel = e.Source as Label;
        toLabel.Content = draggedText;
    }
}

A: Here is how I achieved it.
Below is my XAML.
<Grid>
    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
        <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
    <Label Width="50" Height="50" Background="Red" Content="Red" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" MouseDown="Label_MouseDown" Drop="Label_Drop" AllowDrop="True"/>
    <Label Width="50" Height="50" Background="Green" Content="Green" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" Grid.Column="1" MouseDown="Label_MouseDown" Drop="Label_Drop" AllowDrop="True"/>
</Grid>

Below are my CodeBehind Events
Label DraggingLabel;
private void Label_MouseDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
    DraggingLabel = sender as Label;
    if (e.LeftButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed)
        DragDrop.DoDragDrop(DraggingLabel, DraggingLabel.Content, DragDropEffects.Copy);
}

private void Label_Drop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
    Label originalsource = e.OriginalSource as Label;
    Label lblToDrop = sender as Label;
    string fromContent = lblToDrop.Content.ToString();
    lblToDrop.Content = (string)e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.StringFormat);
    DraggingLabel.Content = fromContent;
}

So basically i created a global Label DraggingLabel to use it at Label_Drop to interchange the Text.
Final Output.

Good Luck.


Reiterate your abilities in your thank you note.
Following up after a job interview is an integral part of the hiring process and may make or break your chances of being hired. Following up too often can signal desperation, whereas failing to communicate with the hiring manager can send the message that you are not interested. The key to the interview follow up is to do it in a professional manner and at the right time.
Ask about next steps during the interview. Knowing the hiring manager's timeline can help to guide you on when and how often to follow up. For example, if the company is expected to finish interviews within the week, you may want to send a short inquiry the following week to reiterate your interest.
Send a thank you note within 24 hours after the interview. The first follow up method to execute, the thank you note shows professionalism and respect. Send a personal thank you note to each person that interviewed you, as well as after each round of interviews. An emailed note will expedite the process; however, handwritten notes are also acceptable so long as your handwriting is clear and legible. Use a classic or professional white or off-white paper or stationery.
Express your interest in the job in the follow up note. Briefly reiterate your relevant skills; avoid rehashing your entire resume, but mention a few key traits that make you the ideal candidate for the job. Explain again how you will bring value to the position and help the organization to meet their goals.
Check in periodically with the company if you do not hear anything. The interview process can be lengthy for the hiring organization and it may take longer than you would anticipate. Though you do not want to appear desperate, it is important to stay at the forefront of the hiring manager's mind. Call or send an email with a brief inquiry once a week.
Continue to interview with other companies until you receive an offer. Even if this particular position is your dream job and you nailed the interview, there are no guarantees. There are numerous reasons why one candidate is chosen over another, or the company may put the hiring process on the back burner while they tend to other pressing matters.Therefore, keep applying to and interviewing for other positions in order to expand your options.
Contact the hiring manager of your first-choice company if you receive another offer from a different organization. Explain the situation and ask if it is possible to expedite the process or decision. This is probably not the first time the hiring company has had to deal with this type of situation, and if you are a viable candidate, the company may be sensitive to your timeline.

Capping solar energy generation in Namibia misses the point
Is Namibia, a country uniquely positioned to benefit from solar energy, really putting the brakes on solar system deployment when other countries are forging ahead? If recent news is to be taken seriously, the answer is yes � progress towards a cleaner, more affordable supply of electricity in Namibia is indeed under threat.
Namibian electricity distributors, such as Erongo RED and the City of Windhoek, have started imposing caps on solar PV electricity production. They are refusing licence approvals for new solar systems installed by consumers, even if these are for self-consumption only.
This is a baffling move that is likely to negatively affect the Namibian economy, unless consumers and the government � particularly the Electricity Control Board (ECB) � take a firm stand and make it clear that such unilateral actions are unjustified and cannot be accepted.
Namibia's government recognises that it is one of the best countries in the world for solar PV power generation and has a progressive national renewable energy policy. It has supported the establishment of fourteen 5 MW solar plants, spread across the country, under the very successful REFIT Program.
Continued growth in harnessing its amazing solar resource makes Namibia part of a global trend. Solar installations worldwide have been growing year-on-year with around 30 percent to 40 percent over the past decade, with 98 GW of solar capacity installed globally in 2017.
The key reason for this growth is that solar PV has become the cheapest source of electricity. This presents a massive opportunity for Namibia especially: the country has some of the highest power tariffs in the SADC region and electricity costs are a significant burden for local businesses and domestic end-users. To illustrate this point, tariffs in some cases exceed N$2.00 per kWh as opposed to N$0.40 in Zambia and N$0.88 Botswana.
Allowing consumers to cover part of their energy consumption via solar PV systems, and therefore alleviating high electricity costs, will benefit the whole economy and lead to job creation in the solar sector and beyond.
So, why have distributors stopped approving new solar systems?
Some distributors may point to Namibia's grid and stability of supply. Concern over the stability of Namibia's grid is valid since its population is sparse and its grid-lines widely dispersed. The Electricity Control Board has conducted studies and NamPower to map out how much solar uptake can be allowed while keeping the grid stable.
However, it is evident that Namibia is not close to any tipping point where stable grid supplies are threatened by additional installations of intermittent renewables. Therefore, the much-cited issue of 'grid stability' cannot be considered a valid argument. In addition, the systems refused by the distributors include those for self-consumption only (no export), which have minimal impact on the grid.
At present, technical constraints are clearly not critical at all. The contribution of solar in Namibia's power mix is still only a few percent at best. In some countries such as Italy, Greece and Germany, solar production already accounts for more than 7 percent of total electricity consumption and it is increasing every year. Solar is not just suitable for large economies with extensive grid infrastructure: even in a small country as Honduras, solar already contributes more than 10 percent to the power generation mix.
Instead, the caps on solar have commercial reasons. The distributors are becoming less profitable, as consumers are helping themselves with more affordable solar electricity at an increasing scale. This situation is not unique to Namibia � it is happening across the world.
The way forward is not to impose unjustified caps and, in this way, kill the burgeoning solar industry in Namibia. Wishing away solar PV as a low-cost source of electricity is just a way of hiding one's head in the sand.
It is important for the ECB to take a strong stance against these artificial caps and the matter of own-use and net-metering solar installations throughout the country. Regulation should not be used to actively block more efficient or affordable power sources. Consumers should be allowed to install solar for own-use, just like they are allowed to install energy efficient LED lighting. The size and shape of a consumer's demand for electricity should be his or her own choice.
A more productive way forward would rather be to manage the transition towards the uptake of clean and decentralised electricity supply options, focusing on how battery storage can help firm up the variable (but cheap) supply of solar power, as well as making sure that distributors are fairly compensated for providing grid services to consumers. Embedded generation, such as own-use solar systems, can make the grid and power supply more resilient and at the same time enhance access to affordable energy.
Seen from a wider perspective, Namibia stands to gain tremendously if it were to fully use its solar resource. Namibia currently imports 57 percent of its power at high cost, yet it has the potential to become a regional net-exporter of electricity. In one future scenario, Namibia could link its solar output with the hydro resources in Zambia and Mozambique to provide power to the wider region. In this way, national competitive advantages such as Namibia's world-class solar energy resources could be used to mutual benefit. Similarly, Denmark exports excess wind power to Norway where it is stored in hydro reservoirs but sent back the other way when the wind does not blow.
An affordable and clean energy supply in Namibia needs more solar � not less. We should not accept distributor caps that hold back the future and force consumers to accept high electricity prices.

The four co-founders of Harley-Davidson were E. J. Reese (father of Harley Davidson), William S. Harley, Robert Davidson, and Earl K. Menninger, who had been classmates at Marquette University in Milwaukee.
The Harley Davidson twin cam engine makes its unique signature rasp by forcing exhaust gases through two sets of small metal valves. The Harley V-twin engine is made up of two parts: The front cylinder works with the exhaust valve system, while the back cylinder works with the intake valve system.
The base salary in the United States, for an ASE Master Automotive Technician (M.A.T.) is approximately $33,000, which also includes overtime and bonuses for successful employees. Many areas of the country offer annual salary bonuses of up to 30% of the total salary for technicians who consistently perform well above industry standards.
Arthur Bletcher Harley
Although the term "hog" is now associated with motorcycles, the first motorcycle was called a "horse". The term was a reference to the hogsheads of grain used to ship these large engines, which took their form from the horse-drawn wagons on which they were created. In many places in the UK, bikes that travel on roads are still referred to as "hogs".
It turns out that Harley owned Ford stock for less than 1/6 of its history, so its share price only increased during that period.
A Harley-Davidson XR – a very rare XR1200.
In general, this is true. All other factors being equal, a newer model is usually more reliable, but that's not always the case – old components are often more reliable. The simple answer is that older models had better reliability in their day.
About 11.6 years and 12 years depending on how you drive the bike. You can expect to last 5 to 6 years with a high average rider if you ride every day (e.g. if you take off every weekend to see friends or go to the beach). It's better to be safe than sorry.
"Live Free or Die". Its motto was "Take Our Country Back, Leave Our Families Alone" and "United We Stand, Divided We Fall". In 2017, a law was proposed that would force motorcycles to have license plates.
The Harley Davidson company is popular in America and people love it for its durability The "Hells Angels" have a reputation for their dangerous behavior, which has made them target for law enforcement. Since the end of World War II, many motorcycle clubs in North America have gained a reputation for being organized criminal gangs.
If you are looking for the cheapest Harley Davidson models like 2019 HD39 and 2019 HD46, check out Honda Motorcycle, Honda Motorcycle. HD39 is one of the most popular models sold. Its base MSRP is just over $3,000. The other HD46 models are all about $30 more than the one you prefer.
For the FLHR exam? The abbreviation FLHR is a synonym for the Florida Bar examination. An acronym for the Florida Bar Exam is FLEx.
The brand's "V-Twin" or "Twin Barrel" engine and its iconic design are among the motorcycles' defining characteristics. The bike has been around for more than 40 years and has been used by lawmen, soldiers, racers and motorcycle enthusiasts in all 50 states and more than 60 countries. The "H" in "Harley-Davidson" means "Horse".
Harleys usually start from $13,000 and go all the way up to $22,000. There are many factors that can affect the cost of a new Harley-Davidson motorcycle including the type of engine, colors, accessories, personal preferences, and more.
Average tread life. Each tires average is 3,000-7,500 miles (4,094-11,176 km). Of course, it can vary some depending on how hard you ride, temperature, use type, road type and wear condition. For example, if your bike has a lot more miles between rides, it's likely that your tires have much longer tread life.
Harley-Davidson Inc. (HOG), which owns all rights to its registered trademarks. It's Harley-Davidson.
John Brace Harley Davidson became a company founder in 1903. The first model that was ever built was called the "Indian". John Brace, a former officer in the Union Army, got the idea for the motorcycle after seeing cavalry horses being driven by a "mutton-chop" handlebar.
The abbreviation CHV stands for Certificate of Verification. The CVO certificate and report is sent automatically to you by the government when you receive Medicare. An example of the CVO Certificate is on your letter from Medicare. The CVO Certification letter confirms your eligibility for benefits in the event that you fall.
The oldest Harley-Davidson dealership in the United States was established in 1919 as J.C. Motor Company. The dealership sold the first Harley-Davidson motorcycle for $75.00. The owner was John C. Moore.

For more than forty years, Gianni Vattimo, one of Europe's most important and influential philosophers, has been a leading participant in the postwar turn that has brought Nietzsche back to the center of philosophical enquiry. In this collection of his essays on the subject, which is a dialogue both with Nietzsche and with the Nietzschean tradition, Vattimo explores the German philosopher's most important works and discusses his views on the "Ubermensch," time, history, truth, hermeneutics, ethics, and aesthetics. He also presents a different, more "Italian" Nietzsche, one that diverges from German and French characterizations. Many contemporary French and poststructuralist philosophers offer literary or aesthetic readings of Nietzsche's work that downplay its political import. Shaped by the revolutionary tradition of 1968, Vattimo's interpretations take Nietzsche seriously as a political philosopher and argue for and defend his relevance to projects for social and political change. He emphasizes the hermeneutic aspect of Nietzsche's philosophy, characterizing the Nietzschean project as a political hermeneutics.
Vattimo also grapples with Heidegger, a philosopher who has had a profound influence on the interpretation and understanding of Nietzsche. Vattimo examines Heidegger's philosophy through its complex relationship to Nietzsche's, and he produces a Heideggerian understanding of Nietzsche that paradoxically goes against Heidegger's own readings of Nietzsche's work. Heidegger believed Nietzsche was the ultimate metaphysician; Vattimo sees him as the founder of postmetaphysical philosophy.
Throughout these essays, Vattimo draws on and quotes extensively from fragments in Nietzsche's notebooks, many of which have never before been translated into English. His writing is clear, elegant, and accessible, and, for the first time, Vattimo's own intellectual developments, shifts, and continuities can be clearly discerned. The loyal testimony and unique perspective in "Dialogue with Nietzsche" makes a convincing case for another orientation in Nietzsche scholarship.

Q: LightTable IDE legacy REPL mode? I found
Light Table
is a great tool to try Clojure language.
It has a handy feature called Instarepl -
;; Anything you type in here will be executed immediately with the results shown on the right.
However, I can't find a way to use a legacy REPL mode which I can run a small code such as
(take 100 (iterate inc 1))

Typing the code, sure the Instarepl immediately eval and show
(1 2 3 4 5 ...)

, but does not exactly shows the result.
Please guide. Thanks.

A: Light Table uses leining for the project management, so you can very easily keep repl open in another window connected to the same project to get the traditional REPL expierence. This lets you switch between the two quickly. Light Table is evolving rapidly and who knows if standalone repl mode has been added since I last looked or will be added soon.

A: Well, on a second try, I found out that clicking the animated-blue-block-icon shows a bottom pane (console), into which for example println outputs. This was what I needed.

Economic Domino Theory
by Ralph Nader
The worst top management of giant corporations in American history is also by far the most hugely paid. That contradiction applies as well to the Boards of Directors of these global companies.
Consider these illustrations:
The bosses of General Motors (GM) have presided over the worst decline of GM shares in the last fifty years, the lowering of GM bonds to junk status, the largest money losses and layoffs of tens of thousands of workers. Yet these top executives are still in place and still receiving much more pay than their successful counterparts at Toyota.
GM's stock valuation is under $7 billion dollars, while Toyota is valued at over $160 billion. Toyota, having passed GM in worldwide sales, is about to catch up with and pass GM in sales inside the United States itself!
GM's executives stayed with their gas guzzling SUVs way beyond the warning signs. Their vehicles were uninspiring and technologically stagnant in various ways. They were completely unprepared for Toyota's hybrid cars and for the upward spiral in gasoline prices. They're cashing their lucrative monthly checks with the regular votes of confidence by their hand-picked Board of Directors.
About the same appraisal can be made of Ford Motor Co., which at least brought in new management to try to do something about that once famous company's sinking status.
Then there are the financial companies. Top management on Wall Street has been beyond incompetent. Wild risk taking camouflaged for years by multi-tiered, complex, abstract financial instruments (generally called collateralized debt obligations) kept the joy ride going and going until the massive financial hot air balloon started plummeting. Finally told to leave their high posts, the CEOs of Merrill-Lynch and Citigroup took away tens of millions of severance pay while Wall Street turned into Layoff Street.
The banks, investment banks and brokerage firms have tanked to levels not seen since the 1929-30 collapse of the stock market. Citigroup, once valued at over $50 per share is now under $17 a share.
Washington Mutual – the nation's largest savings bank chain was over $40 a share in 2007. Its reckless speculative binge has driven it down under $5 a share. Yet its CEO Kerry Killinger remains in charge, with the continuing support of his rubberstamp Board of Directors. A recent $8 billion infusion of private capital gave a sweetheart deal to these new investors at the excessive expense of the shareholders.
Countrywide, the infamous giant mortgage lender (subprime mortgages) is about to be taken over by Bank of America. Its CEO is taking away a reduced but still very generous compensation deal.
Meanwhile, all these banks and brokerage houses' investment analysts are busy downgrading each others' stock prospects.
Over at the multi-trillion dollar companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the shareholders have lost about 75 percent of their stock value in one year. Farcically regulated by the Department of Housing and Urban Affairs, Fannie and Freddie were run into the ground by taking on very shaky mortgages under the command of CEOs and their top executives who paid themselves enormous sums.
These two institutions were set up many years ago to provide liquidity in the housing and loan markets and thereby expand home ownership especially among lower income families. Instead, they turned themselves into casinos, taking advantage of an implied U.S. government guarantee.
The Fannie and Freddie bosses created another guarantee. They hired top appointees from both Republican and Democratic Administrations (such as Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick) and lathered them with tens of millions of dollars in executive compensation. In this way, they kept federal supervision at a minimum and held off efforts in Congress to toughen regulation. These executives are all gone now, enjoying their maharajan riches with impunity while pensions and mutual funds lose and lose and lose with no end in sight, short of a government-taxpayer bailout.
Over a year ago, leading financial analyst Henry Kaufman and very few others warned about "undisciplined" (read unregulated) and "mis-pricing" of lower quality assets. Mr. Kaufman wrote in the Wall Street Journal of August 15, 2007 that "If some institutions are really 'too big to fail,' then other means of discipline will have to be found."
There are ways to prevent such crashes. In the nineteen thirties, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt chose stronger regulation, creating the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and several bank regulatory agencies. He saved the badly listing capitalist ship.
Today, there is no real momentum in a frozen Washington, D.C. to bring regulation up to date. To the contrary, in 1999, Congress led by Senator McCain's Advisor, former Senator Phil Gramm and the Clinton Administration led by Robert Rubin, Secretary of the Treasury, and soon to join Citibank, de-regulated and ended the wall between investment banks and commercial banking known as the Glass-Steagall Act.
Clinton and Congress opened the floodgates to rampant speculation without even requiring necessary and timely disclosures for the benefit of institutional and individual investors.
Now the entire U.S. economy is at risk. The domino theory is getting less theoretical daily. Without investors obtaining more legal authority as owners over their out of control company officers and Boards of Directors, and without strong regulation, corporate capitalism cannot be saved from its toxic combination of endless greed and maximum power—without responsibility.
Uncle Sam, the deeply deficit ridden bailout man, may have another taxpayers-to-the-rescue operation for Wall Street. But don't count on stretching the American dollar much more without devastating consequences to and from global financial markets in full panic.
Consider the U.S. dollar like an elastic band. You can keep stretching this rubber band but suddenly it BREAKS. Our country needs action NOW from Washington, D.C.

So we got the news today of the left side level 2 brain bleed. Briella also had her heart echo today but we won't have the results until tomorrow morning. The echo upset her a lot & she had many alarms during it. It was about a 20 min procedure & she got irritated from being pushed on and having ultrasound goo all over her.
A second nurse practitioner tried to get her picc line in today. They tried 3 times in her leg and were unsuccessful. They said that they were able to get to the artery but when they tried to thread it, it would burst. So I was told they will let her rest tomorrow. She is sedated from the morphine each time. Right now she is what they call "Riding the vent." That is where she is not initiating any or many breathes on her own. They have started her on caffeine to see if that helps her initiate. The inside of her elbow is black and blue from where they tried the picc line last night. I am so sad to see my baby hurt and have to go through this multiple times. We have to wait to see what the dr says tomorrow but the dr will either try it themselves or they will do a small surgery on her called a cut down. They will cut a small area open & try to thread it in that way. The risk of infection is higher if they continue to use & leave the iv's in here belly button in.
Briella's feedings were also upped to 3ml every 3 hours! Although I found a time today where milk had come up and run down her mouth, we are hoping it was a fluke and that she is tolerating the feedings well. She is still having dirty diapers so that's good.
I contacted Children's Mercy Hospital today about a possible transfer. I was told that at the moment there is nothing different they can do for her than what is being done. I was hoping that she would have a dedicated nurse 24hrs a day. But it is the same as where we are, 1 nurse for 2 babies. It's just hard for me right now because the other baby our nurse shares seems to have lots of issues & constant alarms. While I'm grateful we aren't having that many problems I also get frustrated when alarms ring for too long or things don't go the way I understand that they are supposed to. Children's mercy said the big difference is that they have specialists on staff. But at the moment Briella isn't in need of specialists yet. So we will stay put and have faith that where we are at will provide top notch care for her.
Please pray that Briella stays infection free, that they are successful in putting the picc in, that she continues to tolerate her feedings, that we get positive news from her echo and that the brain bleed resolves soon and does not progress.
Thank you so much for the prayers and keep them coming!!!

Junk yards and abandoned cars
Published 04/06/2008 @ 16:26:59, By ingo
I got this idea by the new topic "abandoned places"
Let's start with the youtube, I just have linked in the "video"-thread
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UunbdjaUeb8
Then a link to the page of a friend of me, one of the biggest collector of junkyard-pictures:
http://www.icmesa.com/tinhunter/
If anyone interested, I have a CD with all pics of the German junkyard in Wilhelmshaven at the North Sea coast. I can ask a friend to make copies.
Martin, the junkyard-guy also recommend that French forum:
But attention, over 3000 pages just in this thread!
http://www.forum-auto.com/automobiles-mythiques-exception/section5/sujet152251.htm
and he sent me tha link to -attention CCF! - that Spanish forum:
Yes, it's the link is to page 28, I got from him. Guess why.
http://www.forocoches.com/foro/showthread.php?t=493540&page=42&highlight=Cl%E1si- cos+abandonados%21%21+que+pena
And about the yard in Switzerland (that one from the video):
they are making art-exhibitions there:

Here's some photos I took last year. Lots of Volvos. Note the Volvo 165 Express, that's SUPER rare!

I guess everything which is junk and/or abandoned is interesting I think it's quite a natural thing really. What comes to abandoned cars I know a few of them near my place. It is estimated that there are thousands, if not tens of thousands of junk cars abandoned in Finnish landscape. Traditionally it has been very easy to dump a car in forests.
I have searched nearby woods and know a couple of junk cars. One is a Renault Dauphine (I don't have a picture of it) which is hardly recognizable. I have one hubcap from that car. Also I know a remains of a chassis which some say was a BMW/EMW.
These cars below I just found last summer.

A pic taken in the late 80s in Brussels:
http://antp.be/pic/casse.jpg
I have somewhere the same pic but with most of the cars identified, I should find it.
@atom: your're lucky, because the old Swedish junkyards have the best reputations in Europe at old-car-freaks.
@Raul1983: I don't know, how it's in Finland, also good?
In Central Europe I was getting less and less the last years, due the EU-laws. In Germany the most nice old junkyards were closed and cleared off up to 1998, when the law about them was getting more strictly.
I remember my summer-vacations in 1992, where I spent some days to visit junkyards in Northern and Western Germany (just that ones, which had confirmed, that the had K 70's). It was unbelievable, not to compare with the situation nowadays. Sadly all of them were gone now.
@atom: in 2000 I've visited a friend in Avesta. Just in that area and around Vesteras there were several junkyards, which had old cars. One was just a farmhouse, where the owner had made a half-legal auto-wrecking-business for a long time. Except 3 K 70 he also had 2 Opel Rekord A Coupe and many more oldtimers (perhaps I'll find the photos again).
At one wrecker I've seen a Borgward Arabella in such a wreck-mountain linke Antoine has shown. He also had A Opel Kadett A and a Mercedes W110.
I bought there a perfect engine-lid for a 1957-VW Beetle - for around 6,50 Euro!!
In late 2000 I was again in Sweden, with a friend from Luxemburg, who has bought a K 70 in Gävle.
On the way back (the K 70 and the Range Rover, who pulled the trailer was loaded with old VW Typ 1-parts - the prices in Sweden are low for that stuff)
we stopped at a junkyard in Motala at the lake Vättern.
There I found a -just shortly put there- quite good 1964-VW Beetle. just the battery was missing, even the keys were still there. We couldn't get the car completly, so we've wrecked it (at least a shame with this good condition)
For a ridicoulous price I got the complete -perfect!- interior, the ivory-knobs of the dashboard, the engine-lid, chrome trims and many more nice stuff.
@Antoine: I had the big luck to visit the Belgian junkyard, shown on the tinhunter-page. It was Carlo Vanlingen in Houthalen-Helchteren.
It was unbelievable. I had not enough film with me to take photos. My friend Martin (the "tinhunter"-guy) has shot around 3000 pics over there.
Hopefully he will made them on CD, too sooner or later.
That yard was totally cleared off in 2000 - by the environment-laws, some local politicians were responsible for that.
When I see the Mini, I remember a notice in our local newspaper. There was a pic with two abandoned cars, with the excited text "wrecks illegally thrown into the forest! Has anyone seen the offenders?"
I must loughing loudly: one wreck was a Lloyd Alexander, the other a 1956-Beetle, both totally gone.
It was a long long time ago, when the bad guys has thrown them over there. Should be hard to find witnessers after around 30 years.
@ingo: Nice to hear about your travels thorugh Sweden!
The place I posted is not a junkyard. It's some guy that have them standing long into the forest by his house/cottage. Since he never visits this house (he live in Gothenburg I heard, 70 km from this place) and the neighbour got angry and lit it all up (two or three times) to get rid of the junk. A co-worker is also partime fireman and he told me about this place and that I should visit it befor it's all gone, he said that the city would problalby tow it all away since it to hard to get there with the big firetrucks.
And ingo, if you go to Sweden some more time you should problably visit "Kyrkömosse", I think it's the most famous "abndoned-car-place" in Sweden. I haven't been there myself but hope I could go soon.

That's quite interesting. All I can identify in is a Renault 4 van, a couple of VW Golf Mk1s and a Ford Taunus.
It never ceases to amaze me how many modern cars I'm seeing being scrapped here in the UK. Last time I visited the scrapyard, a 2000 Ford Mondeo, a 2000 Kia Shuma, 1999 Toyota Avensis and dozens of late 90's Peugeot 406s.
Here is a picture I took in October 2006:
http://flickr.com/photos/aqualite/2295622479/
@ecclefan: a reason is, that Britain is an Island and the cars are RHD - so the prices for used cars weren't hold up because of the Export.
Indeed, prices for used cars are lower in the UK than in Continental Europe (the most other things in the UK are much more expensive than in the Euro-currency-zone)
By the way: just this moring I saw a Polish truck, loaded with used British cars, Vauxhall's and Peugeot's, going eastwards on the Autobahn.

atom's tale about the guy in Gothenburg reminded me of this saga:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/derbyshire/3759916.stm
@atom: isn't there an old junk-yard in Sweden, which was declared as a national heritage site? I've heard
I've looked for "Kyrkömosse" at Google - the first result was a collection of pages with cars from the junkyard, but nothing about the location.
The most known Swedish junkyard over here is Töckfors.
Latest Edition: 05/06/2008 @ 20:32:24
@chris: in Sweden, too? A few months ago I read something about a Trabant-fan in Britain, which had the same problems, that the neighbours want to force him to wreck his Trabant-collection.
In the early 90ies, a classmate of me was busy with Trabant's, too. He had 4 cars standing beside his parent's house. One morning he woke up and 5 Trabants were standing there. He never had found out, who has stored the car there.
@ingo: no, this was in the UK, in Derbyshire; probably the same one you heard of. After the wall came down there was a minor outbreak of Trabbis in the UK (though not as big as in Germany, TÜV notwithstanding), but they all seem to have vanished (probably into this guy's field).
Ah, yes, my fault. I haven't read carefully, just the "Gothenburg" at the beginning. Yes, it's the story, I mean.
Wow, why the hell would anyone want 49 of those hideous relics of the Cold War? lol!
Trabants are representative of everything that was wrong with engineering from the Soviet bloc.
How about cars under water?
Umbria was an Italian ship which sank in 1939/1940. Looks like some new Fiat's were on board.
http://www.scubatravel.co.uk/photoumbria.html
Here are some stories I've heard about cars remaining under water:
1. Sometime in the 1920's a new Rolls-Royce was ordered to Finland. The car was transported on a ships deck. A heavy storm struck on the way to Finland and the car fell to the water.
2. In the 1950/1960's for a while it was thought to be a good idea to dump old cars to sea where they would rot away. I've seen pictures of men pushing cars from the deck.
3. In 1927 a 1922 Fiat 501 falls from a ferry to a lake in Finland. Now it is under restoration. I wrote a story of this to PreWarCar:
http://www.prewarcar.com/read_article.asp?ID=2701
4. Chrysler Norseman concept car sank with Andrea Doria in 1956:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Norseman
5. We all know about the story of Titanic. It is generally believed that only one car was aboard on that ship; a 1912 Renault Limousine. Here is an interesting article speculating that there maybe even more...

Not far away from Cortez (CO) is the largest junkyard I´ve ever seen. Here a teaser. I have much more pics from there.
Quote From: ingo
I think it's Kyrkömosse that have that status, can't find any source on that right now though.
I can't get the link to work but type: N 56.46680° E 014.65075° @ http://maps.google.com
I haven't heard about Töckfors, it's pretty close so maybe I could visit it soon.

Q: Error installing Heroku Toolbelt to ubuntu When i installing Heroku Toolbelt to Ubuntu (it stands on VM on Vagrant) i have this errors:
Unpacking heroku-toolbelt (from .../heroku-toolbelt_3.12.1_all.deb) ...
dpkg-deb: file `/var/cache/apt/archives/heroku-toolbelt_3.12.1_all.deb' contains ununderstood data member data.tar.xz     , giving up
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/heroku-toolbelt_3.12.1_all.deb (--unpack):
 subprocess dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/heroku-toolbelt_3.12.1_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I used cmd wget -qO- https://toolbelt.heroku.com/install-ubuntu.sh | sh

A: This error appears because the version of dpkg that is available is < 1.15.6 and thus doesn't support xz compression used in the packaging of heroku-toolbelt.
Thankfully, heroku-toolbelt is a meta-package which doesn't install any tools but depends on the packages which provide the tools needed to interact with heroku.com's services!  Namely, heroku-toolbelt depends on:
git-core, foreman, heroku
So far none of these dependencies use xz compression, so I have successfully installed them and used the tools to access heroku.com's services.  I removed heroku-toolbelt so I don't get new installation errors every time an update is available.  The important packages--git-core, foreman, and heroku--still get automatic updates as available.

Multimodal approach for ionizing radiation damage investigation
Kwiatek, Wojciech M.; Adamczyk, Jolanta; Bobrowska, Justyna; Borkowska, Anna; Lekka, Małgorzata; Lekki, Janusz; Lipiec, Ewelina; Miszczyk, Justyna; Pabijan, Joanna; Paluszkiewicz, Czesława; Panek, Agnieszka; Piergies, Natalia; Pogoda, Katarzyna; Prauzner-Bechcicki, Szymon; Quaroni, Luca; Roman, Maciej; Wiecheć, Anna; Wiltowska-Zuber, Joanna
The new, leading edge laboratory has been established and put into routine operation. The laboratory is focused on multimodal studies of the cellular response to ionizing radiation and provides support and research facilities for the Bronowice Cyclotron Centre. Spectroscopic imaging of cells and tissues (examining in particular the internal structure of cells, the cytoskeleton organization, cells' mechanical and biochemical properties), as well as research at the molecular level, has been applied in research for the purpose of searching new strategies of prevention and therapies of cancer and other pathologies and in fundamental research in the field of structural and vibrational analysis of condensed matter. The multimodal approach, illustrating the full laboratory potential, has been applied to radiation effect studies of transitional cells – human bladder carcinoma cells (T24 cell line). Cells were irradiated with three X-ray radiation doses: 1 Gy, 3 Gy, and 10 Gy and subsequently studied using all instruments of the new laboratory. The presented results demonstrated that the AFM elasticity measurements can be applied to quantitatively estimate alterations induced upon Xray irradiation at the single cell level. A combination of AFM and InfraRed Spectroscopy (NanoIR2 setup) was successful in characterization molecular changes occurring in the nuclear environment following cellular irradiation. Particularly useful information acquired was the observation of changes in distribution of macromolecules with a spatial resolution at the level of the single organelle. The observed changes correlate with radiation dose and thus may become a tool for studying the biological effects of radiation exposure. The application of Raman microspectroscopy for radiation-induced damage investigations provided detection of such spectral changes as strand breaks, base unstacking, and DNA conformational transformations. These studies give crucial information about the damage associated with irradiation and cellular response for radiation dose at single cell level. Moreover, Raman spectroscopy provides possibility to investigate structural changes present within the same sample. Complementary UV–VIS technique, on the basis of γ-H2AX test, delivered quantitative data of radiation damage, manifesting in presence of double strand breaks in DNA in 1st and 2nd day of culture (1 hour and 24 hours after irradiation).

Is iWork Compatible With a PC?
Similar to Microsoft Office for Windows-based PCs, iWork is a productivity suite of applications from Apple Inc. It consists of Pages for page layout and word processing, Keynote for presentation projects, and Numbers for creating spreadsheets. iWork is compatible with Mac OS X and iOS operating systems. iWork is not compatible with the Windows operating system, nor can a PC run any of the aforementioned Apple platforms. However, there is a measure of compatibility with some of Microsoft Office's applications.
Apple's iWork debuted as iWork '05 on January 11, 2005. It came with two applications: Pages and Keynote, which were equivalent to Microsoft's Word and PowerPoint, respectively. With the iWork '08 version, which came out on August 7, 2007, Apple introduced Numbers, its answer to Microsoft Excel.
The similarities that iWork shares with Microsoft Office enables compatibility between both productivity suits. You can open any Microsoft Word, PowerPoint or Excel file in iWork. Also, using iWork tools, you can make any necessary alterations to the documents, presentation projects and spreadsheets you receive from a Microsoft Office user.
During modification, you can save Microsoft Office files with file extensions that its applications use, including .doc, .xls and .ppt. iWork files can be sent to a Mac computer or PC, irrespective of the operating system it is running.
As of 2013, the current version of Apple's productivity suite is iWork '09. Customers can use it on a Mac computer, iPad, iPod touch or iPhone. Apple sells the applications that comprise iWork for $20 each.

Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in South China's Pearl River Delta, the world's workshop, are facing a critical period of trying to survive the current global economic slowdown. Cheng's plant, Long Run Industrial Co., Ltd., a Hong Kong-funded toy manufacturer with about 2,000 employees in Heyuan City, Guangdong Province, has managed to survive. However, nearly eight out of 10 of his toy exporting counterparts, largely small-sized and thus weak to resisting risks, had closed down.
At the toy plant, raw materials have risen about 40 percent so far this year over the same period in 2007. Worker's monthly salaries had doubled to an average of 1,200 yuan (175 U.S. dollars) from 2004 when the plant went into operation. In addition, the appreciation of the RMB, China's currency, devoured 3 to 4 percent of its profits. The plant exported about 25 million yuan (about 3.65 million U.S. dollars) of toys last year, largely plastic toys for McDonald's and alloy car models to Germany.
"We managed to survive, thanks to our size and loyal customers," Cheng says.
Toy makers are not the only businesses to have bad luck. Shoe makers and textile mills have suffered heavily as well in the Pearl River Delta.
Guangzhou Customs statistics showed that in the first half of this year, nearly one-half of shoe exporters became insolvent in the delta region. This left only 2,617 plants. In the first seven months, Guangdong garment exports were reduced 31 percent year on year, and the exports were valued at 13.3 billion U.S. dollars.
These businesses have one thing in common: labor intensive export-based processing businesses that earn trifling processing fees from foreign buyers. They accounted for 66 percent of export values in the province in the January to July period.
Nationwide, rising costs, the fallout from the U.S. sub-prime mortgage crisis, the appreciation of the RMB, and frequent natural disasters, such as February's snowstorms in the south and the May 12 earthquake in Sichuan Province had added more pressure to small- and medium-sized export companies, even dealing some with deadly blows.
Because of these unfavorable elements, as well as macro-control measures, the Chinese economy has shown a steady slowdown from the previous red-hot growth and stepped into a stable "green-light zone."
Statistics show the Chinese economy grew 10.4 percent to 13.06 trillion yuan in the first half of this year, 1.8 percentage points lower than the same period of 2007. It slowed quarter by quarter, growing 11.3 percent in the fourth quarter last year, 10.6 percent in the first quarter this year and 10.1 percent in the second quarter.
The slowing GDP growth was yet 0.3 percentage points higher than the average of the past 30 years of the reform and opening up. It was also higher than the 8 percent target fixed by the government earlier this year to cool the breakneck growth.
"The output slowdown was a moderate correction from a high level," says Zhu Zhixin, vice minister of the State Development and Reform Commission (SDRC). "The national economy is heading in the direction expected by the macro-control policy."
China has undergone several major economic ups and downs since its reform started 30 years ago. Each was triggered by overheating, partly resulting from decentralization, pricing policy shifts or forex system reform.
Among ensuing macro controls, the one in the 1984-1986 period was given up halfway and that in the 1989-1990 period caused a hard landing. The macro control drive in the 1993-1996 period ended up with relatively serious deflation because no timely turnaround was achieved for a then tight monetary policy.
Since September 2007, the country's macro-economic operation had been in an overheated "yellow light zone" for four months running. In view of the situation, the government raised the notion of preventing economic growth shifting from fast growth to growing over-heatedly.
Following the country's macro-control measures, i.e. a tight monetary policy and prudent fiscal policy, the overheating risks that once threatened the economy had been pared. Three major drivers of growth -- investment, consumption and exports -- had maintained a good momentum, says Wang Yiming, a SDRC economist.
With on-going industrialization and urbanization, China's economy would remain robust and vigorous, as the need to narrow regional disparities would continue providing opportunity for growth, according to NBS spokesman Li Xiaochao.
Economists believed a 9 to 10 percent growth rate was most desirable for the economy, and the growth would slip from last year's 11.9 percent to stand at around 10 percent for 2008.
Though there were many problems and uncertain factors, such as persistent price rises, uncertainties in demand abroad, squeezed corporate profit margins, difficulty in ensuring energy and power supplies, and undue expansion of foreign exchange reserves, the fundamentals that had propped up economic growth had not changed; the Chinese economy would maintain steady and fast growth trend this year, NBS chief economist Yao Jingyuan says .
With the tightening monetary policy, a core of macro-control measures, rising prices that loomed over the Chinese economy had slackened somewhat. The country's consumer price index (CPI), a main gauge of inflation, eased to 6.3 percent in July from 7.1 percent in June, 7.7 percent in May and a peak of 8.7 percent in February this year.
Over the past 30 years, China had experienced four major periods of inflation and one serious period of deflation. The highest CPI rise was 24.1 percent in 1994. The country's CPI had signaled a "yellow light" or cautionary period for nine months since September 2007, indicating lingering inflationary pressure.
All of past major inflations were triggered mainly by domestic factors only. But this time, most experts believed, the inflation was ignited by external factors and was cost-driven.
Price increases for oil and farm produce worldwide would likely continue and shore up China's inflation, as the reliance of the country's economy on the outside world was now more than 60 percent due to its 30 year opening-up period.
Meanwhile, agricultural product prices at home, which were buoyed by short supplies after the severe winter weather and the Sichuan earthquake, would linger at a high level.
The rapidly expanding foreign exchange reserves, which pushed up the central bank's passive money supply, would add to the inflationary pressure.
China's forex reserves, already the world's largest, stood at 1.81 trillion U.S. dollars through June. This included a 280.6 U.S. billion dollar increase in the past six months, an average monthly increment of 46.8 billion dollars.
Observers, however, warned of an influx of huge short-term speculative funds as the fast expansion was achieved in tandem with a slowdown in trade surplus growth.
The government was focusing on using tightening policies to fight inflation. To date, China had increased interest rates six times and the reserve requirement ratio 14 times since last year.
To ensure a steady and fast economic development, the PBOC says it would seek a balance between fighting inflation and boosting economic growth for the rest of the year.
Meanwhile, the central bank would make small changes to its monetary policy at a proper time in the second half, responding to the domestic challenges and uncertainties in the global economy.
The central bank would encourage financial institutions to increase credit supply to key industries and weak links, especially to small enterprises, and those concerning agriculture, farmers and rural areas.
It also urges tightened supervision on foreign exchange flows to prevent the risk of large amount of outflows.
In July, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) created a new system that enabled real-time monitoring of foreign exchange flows. The system is mainly an Internet-based data exchange mechanism among SAFE, banks, enterprises and accounting firms.
Economic planners would also exert themselves to increase supplies of necessities, closely track key prices and make price controls more effective, says Zhu Zhixin of the SDRC, the industrial watchdog.
To find a balance between "keeping stable and the relative quick growth of the economy" and "curbing the surging rise of prices," a key point for China's macro control policies, analysts point out the volume-control effect of stringent monetary policy ought to continue; the economic structure needs to be further improved through prudent fiscal policy.
Other analysts foresee a loosening of the tight monetary policy to provide liquidity for enterprises, especially exporters squeezed by weakening demand, credit control and rising costs.
In face of the rigorous environment, enterprises largely were adjusting their product mix, improving management and elevating product added values to alleviate the operation predicament.
In an apparent move supporting industrial innovation, Chinese administrators raised the export tax rebate rate for some textiles and garments from 11 to 13 percent in early August; some highly-polluting products, such as chemical- fiber cloth and viscose-staple fiber were ineligible for the higher export tax rebate.

Beethoven Programme No.4
We have embarked on the 4th part of our Beethoven Cycle. This is perhaps the most intense and exhausting programme of the whole cycle.
It opens with his first quartet from the early op.18. Even though it is not chronologically the first one of the set it is placed by Beethoven at its beginning for a good reason: it is perhaps the most striking of all the six early quartets. It is full of invention and humour, but the most astonishing by far is its slow movement – truly revolutionary by any standards. Apparently inspired by the tomb scene from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet it explores contrast to the most extreme degree. It is full of exquisite lyricism which is interrupted by violent outbursts and sharp dramatic gestures punctuated by agonisingly long silences. There is a raw quality to this music almost unparalleled by anything else written by Beethoven for quartet in his later years.
The second quartet of our current programme is the famous "Razumovsky" No.3. It is one of the first quartets we ever learned as a student quartet at the Royal College of Music, so it has been with us for quite a long time – and yet it remains forever a great challenge. Its opening slow introduction to this day sounds "modern" with its jarring harmonies searching for any sense of home key. It is not until many bars into to main allegro movement that the quartet's key is finally arrived at and it is an arrival well worth waiting for! The slow movement is full of melancholy – although no direct quotations are made its spirit is Russian – no doubt in honour of the quartet's dedicatee. The minuetto is Mozartian in its grace, only the trio bearing more subversive trademarks of its composer. And then comes the wonderful fugue, which is one of the most satisfying and vivacious finales Beethoven ever wrote.
These two works alone feel like a full concert and yet after the interval we play the great op.132! Its slow movement is unique: steeped in the sound world of Palestrina, composed in the Lydian mode it feels like music from the edge of the other world – it is a religious mediation at the heart of a piece framed by two outer movements full of passion and often great yearning and anguish.
It is Hamburg, Gateshead and London's Wigmore Hall this week (the Gateshead concert broadcast by BBC Radio 3) and then we are off to Snape for two live performance recordings.

BPL forming task force for Lower Mills shut-down
By Reporter Staff
The Reporter has learned that Boston Public Library officials are organizing a meeting for this Monday, May 24, to form a task force as they move forward with their plans to close the Lower Mills Library. The meeting is slated for 6:30 p.m. on Monday at Carney Hospital, in the president's board room.
Koren Stembridge, the BPL's chief director of partnerships, said Wednesday that the meeting would discuss "transitioning services from the library." The meeting, she said, is open to the public, although the Reporter had not been officially notified about the meeting as of press time this week. Stembridge said that the meeting was announced at Tuesday evening's meeting of the Lower Mills Civic Association.
Richard O'Mara, vice-president of the Lower Mills Civic Association, said that he encourages all concerned residents — even those opposed to the planned closing— to attend Monday's meeting.
"It's a great forum for us to go to and be very firm in our position that we don't want this branch closed," O'Mara said.
Neighborhood activists and local merchants, along with state lawmakers, are opposing plans to close the Lower Mills library. Boston Public Library trustees, with Mayor Thomas Menino's support, voted last month to close the library and three others across the city, citing financial constraints and a new "vision" for how the entire library system would operate. The mayor's fiscal 2011 budget, which includes the closures, is before the City Council.

Governance, Twitter style
By Raheel Khursheed
Exactly one month after Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) took over as the Prime Minister of India, his "Twitter First" strategy has yielded an important result: his account is now the fourth most-followed world leader account and will become the third-most followed in the near future.
https://twitter.com/Twiplomacy/status/481794214267994112
He has even overtaken the @WhiteHouse in terms of number of followers and will soon only trail Barack Obama (@BarackObama) and Pope Francis (@Pontifex).
As we've written before, there were nearly 60 million Tweets on our platform during the Indian election, thanks to all key stakeholders — candidates, news organizations and users — embracing the live, public, conversational platform that is Twitter. Narendra Modi was the top elections-related term on Twitter during the entire polling period, more than AAP and INC combined. On Counting Day itself, Narendra Modi and BJP accounted for over half of the 2 million elections-related Tweets. His Twitter account (@narendramodi) has grown by more than 1 million followers since his election win, while the official account of the Prime Minister's office (@PMOIndia) has grown more than 40% since his swearing-in ceremony. Of course, his election victory Tweet remains the most retweeted Tweet of all time from India.
But even since the election, the Prime Minister has begun ushering in even more innovations and best practices with respect to his Twitter strategy; @narendramodi has replied to congratulatory Tweets from world leaders when he took over office and has since continued the trend, tweeting extensively about his trip to Bhutan.
Twitter has emerged over the last month as the key platform to keep track of what the government is busy with: the PM has been using his personal handle (@narendramodi), complimented by his office's official handle (@PMOIndia), to share updates.
The Prime Minister's cabinet is flocking to Twitter as well, with nearly 40 ministers and ministries already sharing daily updates with their followers about the goings on in their respective ministries.
It is heartening to note that these Tweets are being posted live, are conversational, include media and provide a rich context into the functioning of the government. Here's a list of the Union Ministers that are already on Twitter. You can subscribe to it to keep yourself updated of the latest Tweets being shared by them.
Stay tuned here for more updates on how Twitter is being used by the center government and government bodies across the country to connect with their constituents.

Seminare und Praktika
The Faculty of economics and social sciences together with the EM Strasbourg Business School in France and the University of Pavia in Italy have established two double degree programmes leading to the award of two university Master degrees upon completion of an integrated 120 ECTS programme, with one year in Fribourg and one year in Strasbourg or Pavia. On both diplomas it is mentioned that they are awarded in a double degree programme. Studying in the double degree programme gives students valuable experience abroad, strong intercultural experience, the perspective of professors and lecturers from many different nations and, both a Swiss diploma and a French/Italian diploma from top ranked institutions. With these integrated programmes, students can study one year in the bilingual city of Fribourg in Switzerland, adding the unique Swiss perspective, in an economically sound country that has recently been ranked as the most competitive nation in the world.They are given the opportunity to spend their second year at the business school of the largest university in France, Strasbourg, or at the Faculty of Economics of the University of Pavia, in Italy. The language of the programmes is English. Up to 18 ECTS can be taken in any other language.
Candidates must be enrolled in the Master in European Business according to the access requirements of the SES Faculty and the University of Fribourg. They are selected based on application documents that have to be submitted at the Dean's Office of the SES Faculty until end January of their first year in Master studies to be able to start at the partner university the following autumn semester.
Public Economics and Public Finance
This double degree is a high-quality Master level programme that offers a joint degree of four European partner universities, namely the University of Fribourg, the University of Rennes 1 (France), the University of Tampere (Finland) and the University of Eastern Piedmont (Italy). The four semester programme consists of courses provided by the partner universities and at least one semester is to be accomplished at a host university abroad. The master thesis is co-supervised by members of two universities and successful graduates are awarded two master degrees, one by the University of Fribourg and one by the host university. The master degree gives access to doctoral studies in all partner universities. In Fribourg, the study plan for the MA specialization in "Public Economics and Public Finance" requires 50% of ECTS to be taken in Public Finance and Public Economics, 25% in Quantitative Methods and 25% in other domains of Economics. The master thesis concerns a topic in Public Economics or Public Finance.
Candidates may apply and are selected after their first successfully accomplished semester in the MA in Economics.

Die Olympia-Schießanlage Hochbrück im Garchinger Stadtteil Hochbrück ist die größte zivile Schießsportanlage der Welt und gilt als eine der modernsten Austragungsstätten für die olympischen und nichtolympischen Disziplinen des Sportschießens. Sie wurde für die Olympischen Spiele 1972 auf einem ehemaligen Standortübungsplatz der Bundeswehr errichtet.

Geschichte
Auf Bitte von Willi Daume in dessen Funktion als Präsident des Nationalen Olympischen Komitees für Deutschland (NOC) um Unterstützung der Olympischen Spiele durch die Bundeswehr entschied der Bundesminister der Verteidigung 1970, zu dieser Zeit noch Helmut Schmidt, die Unterstützung der Veranstaltung in erheblichem Umfang, wobei dieser sich sämtliche Entscheidungen hinsichtlich der Hilfeleistung selbst vorbehielt. Zu den Unterstützungsleistungen zählte auch die Überlassung von Gelände für die Olympiaschießanlage.

Der Grund für die Errichtung einer Anlage in dieser Dimension waren einerseits die damals gültigen Regeln, dass jede teilnehmende Nation in jeder schießsportlichen Disziplin bis zu drei Schützen an den Start gehen lassen durfte, was den Bau von 102 Schießständen sowie dreier Wurfscheibenanlagen erforderlich machte, um einen zügigen Ablauf der Wettbewerbe zu gewährleisten. Ebenso war es erforderlich, 43 Schießstände mit einer Zieldistanz von 300 m anzulegen, da in München letztmals Großkalibergewehrdisziplinen auf diese Distanz ausgetragen wurden. Olympiasieger in dieser Disziplin wurde der US-Amerikaner Lones Wigger.

Der Bayerische Sportschützenbund übernahm nach den Olympischen Sommerspielen von 1972 die Anlage von der Bundesrepublik Deutschland im Jahre 2006 als Eigentümer und hatte nun erstmals in seiner Geschichte die Möglichkeit, Landes- und Bundesmeisterschaften an einem Ort durchzuführen. Nach umfangreichen Sanierungen – vor allem der Wurfscheibenanlage – gilt die Anlage in Fachkreisen als die größte und modernste zivile Schießsportanlage weltweit. Sie dient auch als Landesleistungszentrum und als Olympiastützpunkt.

Anlagen
Insgesamt bestehen die nachfolgend beschriebenen Schießstände.

Luftdruckhalle Die 1972 noch nicht olympischen, aber mittlerweile nicht mehr wegzudenkenden Luftdruckwaffendisziplinen machten in den 1980er Jahren den Bau einer eigenen Luftdruckhalle erforderlich. In der Luftdruckhalle befinden sich 100 10-m-Stände für Luftdruck-Waffen und Armbrust, davon sind 50 Stände als 15-m-Stände für Zimmerstutzen nutzbar.

Gewehrhalle In der Gewehrhalle befinden sich 102 50-m-Stände für Gewehrdisziplinen und Freie Pistole, davon sind 42 Stände für 100-m- oder 300-m-Gewehrdisziplinen sowie 41 Stände für 30-m-Armbrustdisziplinen nutzbar.

Pistolenhalle Vierzig 25-m-Stände für Pistolendisziplinen befinden sich in einer eigenen Pistolenhalle. Diese besitzen sowohl eine elektronische Trefferanzeigeanlage als auch eine mechanische Duellanlage.

Finalhalle Zwanzig Stände für unterschiedliche Disziplinen bis zu 50 m und ein Zuschauerraum für bis zu 1000 Besucher befinden sich in der Finalhalle. Ferner werden hier die Disziplinen der "Laufenden Scheibe" auf die Distanz von 10 m beim Luftgewehr sowie beim Kleinkaliber auf 50 m ausgetragen.
Die Finalhalle ist Ende der 90er-Jahre aus der ursprünglich für die Disziplin "Laufender Keiler" gebauten Halle entstanden.

Wurfscheibenareal Die ursprünglichen drei Anlagen wurden von 2007 bis 2009 komplett erneuert, so dass nun nach neuesten Sicherheits- und Umweltvorkehrungen fünf kombinierte Trap- und Skeetanlagen bestehen. Die Trapanlage verfügt über einen "olympischen Graben" mit insgesamt drei Wurfmaschinen pro Position, insgesamt sind es 15 Wurfmaschinen pro Anlage. In der Skeetanlage gibt es das übliche Hoch- und Niederhaus. Eine überdachte Zuschauertribüne für rund 1.000 Zuschauer ermöglicht eine Beobachtung aller Stände.

Conny-Wirnhier-Platz Der Platz der Siegerehrungen ist nach Konrad Wirnhier, dem Olympiasieger im Skeet von 1972, benannt.

As you can see the diagram we hookup a relay module work as a switch to any home, automotive, & industrial devices.
Super guideline. Everything included and very helpful. Thank you.
I was try to uninstall arduino also libraries then install again, put the libraries ESP8266WiFi.zip, ESP8266WebServer.zip and ITEADLIB_Arduino_Nextion-0.7.0 (stable version one). But still not working.
I am using an Arduino MEGA with this code. I changed pins 2-6 on the 14core output to pins 34-38 on the MEGA. I can see functionality on the serial out of the Arduino seen below, but the command is not sending to the relay switch.. any suggestions?
yes because there is never declare the output's , that's the reason !
Where can I find the Nextion library, because with my library doesn't work?
hye can you give me the source coding?
i don't know what that mean ?
i use other project to get information from Arduino to Nextion with success but on the other side Nextion to Arduino looks not good ?

Q: How to control the speed of four 12 VDC fans across two sources? I destroyed my fan hub and am trying to replace it with a simple circuit. My PC has a fan header that can power the 12 V DC (not PWM) fans, however, it only supports two fans.
So I am trying to power two more fans off another 12 V source but the second source needs to match the voltage of the header source, as it is controlled internally to regulate speed.
How can I "copy" the voltage of another source?
I'm not too experienced with electronics; am I understanding this correctly?


Young Israeli envoys are aggressively pushing engagement with all things Israel on North American college campuses.
BOSTON Their headquarters are wherever the college students they court can be found: coffee houses, dorm hallways, campus greens. They have no set office hours and are always up for a conversation, especially if the topic is Israel. In fact, that's their job. Meet the ranks of a relatively new and growing cadre of Israel's young emissaries whose mission is to engage with Jewish and non-Jewish students on North American college campuses on any and all things Israel with an eye out for what might be perceived as anti-Israel.
She describes Hopkins as a campus that is relatively non-political. Getting students to engage with Israeli topics, therefore, can take some doing. Like her counterparts, recruiting students to go on Birthright trips and accompanying them on their journey is a key part of her work. Often, it is the Birthright trip that becomes a key trigger for returning students to come back to campus as activists and leaders on Israel-related issues. Most return with more questions than answers, and that is also where the Israel Fellows step in, they say.
The returnees vary but some do become involved with Israel advocacy and community leadership on campus; others go in different directions. Some focus more on becoming involved with religious streams on campus, others are drawn to social justice issues as a way to explore their Jewish identity, and still others simply enjoy having a larger pool of Jewish friends.
The Israel Fellows program is something Jewish Agency chairman Natan Sharansky has championed as an integral piece of his larger vision of bolstering Jewish identity among young Diaspora Jews. Since he became chairman in 2009, the number of Israel Fellows has increased from 19 to 56 on 70 North American campuses.
"Today, college campuses are one of the most important if not the most important arenas in which young Jews find themselves," says Alan Hoffmann, director-general of the Jewish Agency. "It's clear that the four years that a young person spends as an undergraduate on campus, and afterwards as a graduate student, are some of most critical years in terms of their identity development.
"Add to all this the issue of Israel and the fact that in the last two decades college campuses have become a hostile environment with regard to Israel. Also, young people often come to college ill-prepared, either in terms of their Israel and Jewish content background or because they might have grown up in a Jewish cocoon. Either way, they then find themselves in a hostile environment at college and often feel under siege," says Hoffmann.
Fellows like Kahn, 28, say their job is not about sugarcoating Israel and the ongoing conflict. "I don't see myself as a representative of the foreign minister who's there to defend policy, but to help students, Jewish and non-Jewish, to engage, wrestle and have that part of the conversation crucial for the survival and flourishing of the Jewish people," says Kahn. Israel Fellows say there is a problem co-hosting events with groups that they say seek to delegitimize Israel, but not with individuals or groups, including those from Israel, that ask hard questions. For example, Kahn says, a student who plans to join the Israeli army himself hosted a book club event to discuss a new book published by Breaking the Silence, an organization of veteran Israeli combat soldiers who have served in the West Bank and Gaza and share their stories as soldiers there to stimulate critical debate within Israel. A Breaking the Silence activist spoke to Jewish students at a Sukkot event organized with the help of the program at Columbia.
Kahn himself was an American college student not long ago. His focus at the time was leading anti-Iraq war activity at his college in New Jersey and not the subject of Israel. But the 2003 suicide bombing of a Tel Aviv bar and the coverage of the incident in the media became a turning point for him. Soon after, he decided to immigrate to Israel where he studied and served in the army.
Tsuk, who is at Columbia, says November's cross-border fighting between Israel and Hamas was a challenging time on campus with daily protests. But she says students she worked with were out there, "to be part of the conversation," she says, trying to show the broader picture and context of the situation. "The one message is that no matter what, we have to be understanding of each other's pain and have to talk and find a solution," she says. Meanwhile, the Jewish identity train goes both ways.
