Le  (MEADS) est un projet militaire destiné à remplacer les systèmes de missiles sol-air MIM-104 Patriot et MIM-23 Hawk qui a démarré en 1995 et qui, en 2013, bien que son développement continue, voit la majorité de ses financements stoppés. Les États-Unis, l'Allemagne et l'Italie participent au projet dans le cadre d'une structure de l'OTAN tandis que la France, initialement présente, s'est retirée en .

Historique

L'objectif du MEADS lancé en 1995 est ambitieux. Il doit être extrêmement mobile, monté sur des camions de  aérotransportable par C-130, protéger une zone sur 360 degrés et pouvoir intercepter une large gamme de cibles allant de l'hélicoptère au missile balistique tactique à basse et moyenne altitude. À l'origine, il devait être en service en 2005.

L'agence de l'OTAN chargée du programme financé par les États-Unis (58 %), l'Allemagne (25 %) et l'Italie (17 %) est la NATO MEADS Management Agency (NAMEADSMA) créée en  dont le siège est à Huntsville (Alabama), l'objectif alors était d'avoir une capacité initiale pour l'année fiscale 2008.

La coentreprise MEADS International dont le siège est à Orlando (Floride), a été créée par Lockheed Martin, LFK GmbH et Alenia Marconi Systems pour l'industrialisation de ce système.

Lockheed-Martin effectue 58 % du travail sur ses sites à Orlando (Floride), à Dallas (Texas), à Huntsville (Alabama), et Syracuse Syracuse (New York). MBDA Allemagne (anciennement LFK) réalise le BMC4I, le lanceur, le radar de surveillance et les travaux connexes de MFCR dans son usine de Munich, en Allemagne. Enfin, MBDA Italie effectue des travaux sur le BMC4I et le MFCR à Rome, en Italie.

Le radar étant développé dans l'usine d'électronique de Lockheed Martin dans la ville de Salina dans le comté d'Onondaga, une zone industrielle de Syracuse, où ce projet de 625 millions de dollars emploie, en 2012, 235 personnes.

Le programme MEADS a connu un certain nombre de défis techniques et de gestion depuis sa création dans le milieu des années 1990. Bien que le programme ait connu une amélioration marquée à la fin des années 2000, il a été incapable d'atteindre les objectifs concernant son calendrier et son coût. En 2004, la lettre d'intentions prévoit que le budget total consacré à ce programme soit de 4 milliards de dollars américain.

La proposition de restructuration de la MEADS Management Agency de  serait de prolonger la phase de design et développement de plus de 30 mois à compter de la phase de 110 mois établie en 2004, et aurait besoin d'au moins 974 millions de dollars US supplémentaires d'investissement entre 2012 et 2017 et la production commencerait au plus tôt en 2018.

En , le Département de la Défense qui a déboursé environ 1,5 milliard de dollars pour ce programme annonce que les États-Unis ne produiront pas le MEADS en série mais continueront à financer la R&D jusqu'à un certain niveau de maturité dans l'enveloppe financière définie en 2004 mais sans surcoût soit 804 millions de dollars entre 2011 et 2014.

En , Lockheed Martin commence les tests du MEADS et de son BMC4l, un centre de commandement tactique (TOC), sur la base aérienne Pratica di Mare en Italie. Les premiers tests doivent démontrer les capacités anti-aériennes et les aptitudes du TOC.

L'Allemagne, à la suite de restrictions budgétaires dans le budget de la défense, a annoncé le  qu'elle n'achètera pas le MEADS. Cependant l'Allemagne valide un contrat qui serait de 4 milliards d'euros en  pour le MEADS. En , elle reporte la signature de ce contrat et le ministère allemand de la Défense s'attend à ce que ce système de défense aérienne soit opérationnel d'ici 2025

Le , Lockheed-Martin a procédé, avec succès, à un premier test du système et on annonce que le Qatar pourrait participer au programme.

Le , la première interception d'une cible a lieu sur le terrain d'essais de White Sands.

Le budget de la défense 2013 des États-Unis a été amputé des 400,9 millions de dollars de crédits destinés au programme MEADS, les parlementaires ayant estimé que les États-Unis n'en avaient pas besoin mais un budget de 390 millions de dollars a été rétabli le  par le Congrès des États-Unis pour ce qui est présenté comme la dernière année de financement de ce programme.

Même si les États-Unis ne mettront pas en service ce système d'arme, les avocats du Département de la Défense déclarent qu'ils sont contractuellement obligés de terminer le développement du système MEADS et qu'ils récupéreront certaines technologies développées telles le radar de surveillance à 360°.

En , le MEADS est sélectionné pour servir de base à un futur système de défense aérienne sol-air allemand, le German Taktisches Luftverteidigungssystem (TLVS).

Caractéristiques

Le radar du système est à bande Ka.

L'intercepteur primaire du système, suggéré dès l'an 2000, et choisi officiellement en septembre 2006 est le Patriot Advanced Capability-3 Missile Segment Enhancement (PAC-3 MSE), version améliorée du missile Patriot, qui détruit sa cible par collision. Un lanceur peut contenir 16 de ces missiles. L'Allemagne a choisi comme intercepteur secondaire le IRIS-T SL à guidage infrarouge.

La plus petite unité capacité d'engagement minimum (MEC) se compose de :

 1 véhicule centre d'opérations tactique ;
 1 véhicule radar de contrôle multifonction ;
 2 véhicules tracteurs-érecteurs-lanceurs.

Une unité de feu complète se compose de :

 1 véhicule centre d'opérations tactique ;
 1 véhicule radar de surveillance ;
 2 véhicules radars de contrôle multifonction ;
 6 véhicules tracteurs-érecteurs-lanceurs ;
 3 véhicules d'approvisionnement.

Chaque client peut adapter le châssis qui lui convient.

More Rubbish From The Interwebs
Sylvan Esso: Live At SXSW 2017 | NPR Music
Published on March 23, 2017 by Deb
"We're gonna play a whole bunch of new songs for you," said Amelia Meath as she introduced her electro-pop duo Sylvan Esso, adding, "because we're tired of playing the old ones."
The phrase "we're gonna play new songs" often elicits groans from the crowd. But for Sylvan Esso — whose second album, What Now, comes out April 28 — the promise of new material was, three years after the release of their debut record, cause for elation for the huge audience packed into Stubb's BBQ in Austin, Texas, where Meath and producer Nick Sanborn played a set recorded live for NPR Music Wednesday night. [SEE THE PERFORMANCE BELOW]
Though Sylvan Esso eventually trotted out a few highlights from 2014's self-titled debut — "Coffee," "H.S.K.T.," "Hey Mami" — the songs from What Now hit hard, stoking an as-far-as-the-eye-could-see field of ecstatic dancing to match the artful and passionate gyrations on stage. The effect captured and elicited what felt like genuine ecstasy; a loose and liberating letting-go that was an absolute blast to witness — even before Meath broke into a bit of Beyoncé's "Flawless."
Note: At the band's request, this video features three of Sylvan Esso's new songs. It is not the full performance:

Margaret Dickens is trying to retire. She has tried twice before. "When you're a founder, you can't just leave," laughed Margaret, who plans to take the title of Emeritus Director of Wings of Hope, the equine therapy center just south of Burleson, a little north of where FM 917 and CR 806 coincide.
"This field of equine therapy is not just pleasure riding. We're helping the people physically and mentally, and we have 150 volunteers helping us do it. I want Wings of Hope to continue long after I'm gone." Growing up in Fort Worth, Margaret rode horses all her life.
The staff and volunteers keep a busy schedule caring for the horses, managing the barn, teaching riding lessons and leading nondenominational prayer meetings between each class. All Wings of Hope instructors are NARHA certified and have extensive experience with both horses and disabled riders. Riders are taught to control the horse with reining. They are taught to control themselves through the use of games played from astride the horse. And they are taught responsibility through teamwork and stable management with volunteers. To help clients develop spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically, therapy at Wings of Hope is designed to increase cognitive skills and self-esteem, and to improve balance, coordination, posture, fine motor control and articulation in each rider.
"These children and adults have bonded with the horse, and they think about their horse and their riding lesson all week long! For every rider, we need three volunteers during their lessons. What the child or the adult rider experiences in the hour they are in their lesson, amazingly, is 12 people giving them care during that hour! And their parents and caretakers are supported through the prayer group," Margaret said.
She knew, however, that she needed paying work and she prayed for a place to work that would allow her to use her gifts. "I wanted more. I loved horses. I wanted to make use of my gift of rehabilitation," Margaret explained.
"What happened next was a miracle!" She answered an ad on October 15, 1986, and was immediately hired to work in Keene at Odyssey Harbor, which served children who had been abused, teaching them to trust again through therapeutic riding.
Margaret's life experiences have taught her that once you learn one skill, you can use it in other areas. "I had been director of religious education for St. Andrews Episcopal Church before volunteering in the soup kitchen, and at St. Andrews I had learned to play guitar and lead vacation Bible school," Margaret said.
"That experience prepared me to be effective when Patti Pace and I led the church and prayer meetings at Odyssey Harbor. She and I used to tune our guitars and say, 'It's OK if it's not perfect; it's just the love that counts!' As it turned out, the combination of all of it was most important. The prayer group and the riding was a ministry that those kids responded to.
At Patti Pace's place in Burleson, Patti and Margaret began to give riding lessons to clients who were not abused, but were physically, cognitively and emotionally handicapped. For three years, between prayer meetings and lessons, Margaret and Patti also raised funds to purchase 26 acres in Egan, dedicated to Wings of Hope.
of reclaimed asphalt to build the parking area and United Co-op Services donated the outdoor lighting." The Amon G. Carter Foundation has been a big supporter, funding the driveway, the purchase of more land, a farm truck and a site plan for future improvements, which will include an outdoor arena, more barn and stall space, and a chapel for prayer meetings and church services.


Ranking in Google is a tricky business, and even if you take all the relevant variables into account, in the end, you still might not get the results you were hoping for.
This means that in most cases the answer to this burning question is – 'It depends'. But who wants to hear that? Luckily, thanks to a comprehensive study from Ahrefs, we can actually give you a more concrete answer than that.
The Ahrefs study first looked at the average age of the top-ranking pages. They took 2 million random keywords and pulled data on the Top 10 pages for each keyword. The results showed that the average Top 10 ranking page was 2+ years old, while pages which ranked at the coveted #1 position were almost 3 years old.
Ahrefs team then randomly picked 2 million pages that had been previously seen by their crawler, tracking the position history of each page for any keyword it's ranked for. It turned out that just 5.7% of pages ranked in the Top 10 within 1 year for at least 1 keyword. The average time it took for these lucky pages to get to the top was anywhere between 61 and 182 days.
The study also showed that it doesn't take too long to rank for low-volume keywords, whereas ranking for high-volume keywords can take almost a year if you want to become part of the Top 10.
Clearly, this is only the case for the very fortunate 5.7% of pages. So what happens to the majority of pages which try to rank in Google? To find out more about the Ahrefs study results, check out the useful infographic below by The Website Group!
Loved your tip Lance about not using just listings as blog posts, I see that often and wonder why? They really are not blog posts but just listings. Great tips here!

Barnes growing in importance to Dodgers
Backup catcher played big role in NLDS sweep
By AJ Cassavell
PHOENIX -- Dodgers manager Dave Roberts inserted Austin Barnes into the lineup Monday night because of the little things that Barnes does. He could work the count against Zack Greinke, Roberts said before the game. He had a good rapport with Dodgers starter Yu Darvish, Roberts added.• NLCS Game 1:
PHOENIX -- Dodgers manager Dave Roberts inserted Austin Barnes into the lineup Monday night because of the little things that Barnes does. He could work the count against Zack Greinke, Roberts said before the game. He had a good rapport with Dodgers starter Yu Darvish, Roberts added.
• NLCS Game 1: Saturday, 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on TBS
But the big moment came just as naturally to Barnes. Minutes after Daniel Descalso's solo home run whipped the Arizona crowd into a frenzy, Barnes unloaded on a Greinke fastball and deposited it in the left-field seats. The Chase Field crowd hushed, and the D-backs hardly threatened after that in a 3-1 Dodgers victory.
October has a tendency to catapult players from unknown quantities into folkloric status. Barnes isn't there yet, but he might be on his way. On a 104-win Dodgers team loaded with superstars, Barnes, a backup catcher, played as big a role as anyone in the sweep of Arizona in the National League Division Series presented by T-Mobile.
• Shop Dodgers postseason gear
:: NLCS schedule and coverage ::
"It's always nice when your manager has that faith in you," Barnes said afterward. "It was nice to be in the lineup and be able to contribute with the guys."
The question, now, is how much Barnes will contribute in the NL Championship Series presented by Camping World. Barnes received only 218 at-bats during the regular season, hitting .289/.408/.895 in a mostly platoon role.
Yasmani Grandal started for much of the season against right-handers. And Grandal, a switch-hitter, did so plenty against left-handers, too. But in September, Grandal batted .154/.269/.369, and he went hitless with two strikeouts in four NLDS at-bats.
Barnes, meanwhile, went 4-for-8 with a walk. He came off the bench in Game 1, then started Game 2 against left-hander Robbie Ray. He singled and scored the go-ahead run in the fourth, before breaking the game open with a two-run double an inning later.
Barnes' homer swung Game 3, but Roberts was equally impressed with the job he did as Darvish's batterymate.
"Austin, he's really matured as a Major League player this year behind the plate, just the confidence that he's grown to have," Roberts said. "Behind the plate, in the batter's box, he competes every pitch, hits to all fields."
In the NLCS, Roberts will have a nightly decision to make behind the dish. It might come down to the handedness of the opposing pitcher. Or it might come down to the Dodgers' own pitcher.
Grandal has had more success handling Clayton Kershaw. Barnes has caught Rich Hill more frequently and with better results than Grandal. Both Darvish and Alex Wood, meanwhile, have relatively even splits with both catchers.
"He's a hell of a player," Hill said amid Monday's celebration. "What he did tonight was unbelievable. ... The entire season, he's grown as a player, he's grown as a Major Leaguer. His at-bats are extremely quality."
Whatever his role, Barnes is merely content to keep winning.
"We're a close group," he said. "We play the game the right way, and it's fun because we're all in it together."

Hawaii's own semiconductor plant is expected to be operational by 2022
Nathaniel Loxley June 28, 2021 1 min read
After the US embargo came into force last year, Chinese company Hawaii lost access to DSMC's manufacturing facilities, but at the same time, the leaders of the first company are expected to ask for promises to retain High Silicon's development team. Sources say that a company will start operations in Wuhan in 2022, where Hawaii will independently manufacture components for networking tools.
Image Source: DSMC
Related information was distributed by the Digi Times on Friday, but most of it was only available to subscribers. Sparrows News has a little more detail about this story. According to Hawaii Technologies, the Wuhan facility is the first in the company to be able to process silicon scales at home. Until now, this functionality has been outsourced to third-party manufacturers.
As the source explains, Wuhan will initially develop digital signal processors for communication devices over fiber-optic data transfer networks. This type of product does not require modern lithography, which makes the task a little easier for the Hawaiian company. The Chinese company has been maintaining a research center in Wuhan for many years, developing handles for telecommunications technology, hicilicon processors and automotive pilot systems. From next year the center will be working closely with the new Hawaii initiative.

I bought the Red Strap CBD 300mg vapor, I love the flavor and it really works great. I just re-ordered another batch. I have a pipe dedicated just for this product which works out great. I like vaping the full flavor instead of mixing with something else. So this is how I use the product.
i love your products , is it ok to vape this alone ? or do i need to add to ejuice?
Good to hear! Yes, it is designed to vape alone.
" CBD concentrate is infused 99:1″, does that reference CBD to THC or CBD in the carrier liquid?
Love it. Great smell and flavor. I could feel the 300mg CBD kicking in after a couple vapes. Mixed it with a little EVO Insomnia E-Liquid for a smooth blend.

Tokyo Olympics: Ireland's women's hockey team's journey to their first Games

Olympic dreams start in Banbridge
Katie Mullan celebrates Ireland's win over Canada that sealed the team's spot in Tokyo
BBC Sport NI's Nigel Ringland has followed the Ireland Women's hockey team for the last decade. As they participate in their first ever Olympic Games, Nigel details the characters and their journey to get to this stage.
There are plenty of inspirational quotes about life, journey and destination, and many would apply to the Ireland women's hockey squad.
The destination has always been a first appearance at an Olympic Games and on Saturday, 16 women will take to the pitch at the Oi Hockey Stadium in Tokyo and will achieve that goal or, more romantically, fulfil a dream personally and collectively.
For each player, the journey is different.
Shirley McCay's started in 2007 and for Ireland's most capped sportswoman the opening game of the Olympics will be her 312th appearance. Three previous campaigns had ended in failure, serious gut-wrenching disappointment, but not the fourth.
No-one deserves to step onto the grandest stage in sport more than the woman from Drumquin. Well maybe except for Lizzie Holden, Chloe Watkins and Nicci Daly, who all shared the misery of narrowly missing out at the final hurdle in 2012 and 2016.
Ireland's fixtures in Tokyo (all times BST)
South Africa – 24 July (13:15)
The Netherlands – 26 July (02:00)
Germany – 28 July (04:15)
India – 30 July (03:45)
Great Britain – 31 July (12:45)
Quarter-finals – 2 August
Semi-finals – 3 August
Bronze/Gold matches – 6 August
Ireland realise Olympic dream after penalty drama
Then there is Sarah McAuley who was just five years old when McCay made her international debut. Now 19, and with just one full cap to her name against Italy at the European Championships last month, the teenager will line up alongside her friend, mentor, Muckross teammate and Ireland's all-time leading goalscorer Anna O'Flanagan, another who has been chasing this dream for a decade or more.
Even with reflection the past six years have, at some points, defied belief. Eight of this squad – including captain Katie Mullan, goalkeeper Ayeisha McFerran and Hannah Matthews – were devastated by a shootout loss to China in Valencia in 2015 that cost them a place at the Rio Olympics.
It took a long time to get over.
Two years later they qualified for the World Cup for the first time in 16 years. By that stage Roisin Upton, Deirdre Duke and Lena Tice were established members of the squad.
No one could have foreseen or even dreamed what would happen next.
They finished top of a group that included the Olympic champions England (who won gold in Rio as GB), then beat India and Spain in shootouts to make the World Cup final as the 15th ranked team out of 16 at the tournament.
The eleven players already mentioned above (except McAuley who was still at school) have World Cup silver medals to their names from three years ago, an achievement that only grows and grows in stature as time passes.
But the Olympics was always the destination.
The road to Tokyo began over two years ago on 8 June 2019 with a 2-1 win over Malaysia at Banbridge in the FIH Series. A place in the Olympic qualifiers was secured a week later with a 4-0 victory over the Czech Republic.
Over 6,000 supporters packed the ground in Dublin for a winner-takes-all play-off against Canada, only to witness two awful scoreless games. Another shootout loomed with a spot at the Olympics awaiting the winner.
Ayeisha McFerran was the hero with two penalty shootout saves against Canada
The World Cup had exorcised the demons of Valencia but at 3-1 down it looked like another journey would be halted in its tracks. By this stage McFerran was now regarded as one of the world's best goalkeepers and when her country needed her she produced two saves that didn't do justice to the word 'huge'.
Bethany Barr and Watkins still had to score and somehow both summoned the temperament and skill to do just that. Upton then stepped up and slotted home from such an acute angle as to defy physics. Canada missed. The journey continued.
Amid the glorious celebrations that night who would have thought that four months later a global pandemic would sweep the world causing the Olympics to be postponed for the first time in peacetime.
For individuals, the delay of a year meant their journey has gone off in a different direction. The same ACL injury deprived twins Bethany and Serena Barr of their Olympic dreams as it did for the ever-present smiling face of World Cup silver medallist Zoe Wilson while two other members of that squad, Megan Frazer and Nikki Evans, were the last two players to miss out on selection.
Twelve months ago, that would probably not have been the case, but they will be in everyone's thoughts this weekend.
The bond between the squad is clear to see in their pre-Games photo shoot
Hannah McLoughlin, Michelle Carey, Sarah Torrans and Zara Malseed are new faces along with McAuley while Naomi Carroll, Sarah Hawkshaw and Lizzie Murphy complete the squad who will make history this weekend.
Not only is it the debut of Ireland women's hockey in an Olympics but they are the first ever female team to represent the country at a Games in any sport. You see not only are they history makers, but they want to be trailblazers as well and help inspire the next generation.
It might be foolish to think that they can repeat what they did at the World Cup over the next two weeks, then again it might be more foolish to think they can't.
The Olympics will be the final destination for some of these players, life's journey will take them on a new path. For others it's just the beginning, a chance to write a first chapter, actually the next chapter in the story of the Ireland Women's hockey team.
So far, it's been a page turner you haven't been able to put down.

The husks separated from the nuts are retted in lagoons up to ten months. The retted husks are then beaten with wooden mallets manually to produce the golden fibre. The fibre is later spun into yarn on traditional spinning wheels called "Ratts", ready for dyeing and weaving into myriad shades of floor coverings. A score of varieties/grades of coir yarn are produced and each variety is associated with certain specific characteristics, used for industrial, agricultural and domestic applications.
The starting point of the industry is the process of dehusking after harvesting of the mature coconut crop. Coir fibers are extracted from the husks surrounding the coconut.
In most areas coir is a by-product of copra production, and the husks are left on the fields as mulch or used as fertiliser due to high potash content.
For production of light coloured fibre of spinnable quality green husk of 10 to 12 months old coconuts is ideally suitable. India and Sri Lanka are the main areas where the fibres from the husk (termed 'coir') are extracted by traditional methods for the commercial production of a variety of products (brushes and brooms, ropes and yarns for nets and bags and mats and padding for mattresses). However, world wide, only a small part of the fibres available are currently used for these purposes.
The processes of fibre extraction are varied, and depend on the effectiveness of the wet processing such as bleaching and dyeing of coir and also varied end uses.
The traditional production of fibres from the husks is a laborious and time-consuming process. After separating of the nut, the husks are processed by various retting techniques generally in ponds of brackish waters (for three to six months) or in backwaters or lagoons. This requires 10-12 months of anaerobic (bacterial) fermentation.
By retting, the husks are softened and can be decorticated and the fibre is extracted by beating, which is usually done by hand. After hackling, washing and drying (in the shade) the fibres are loosened manually and cleaned. The remaining residual pith – which was previously considered a waste problem – has recently found new profitable markets as a peat moss substitute for horticultural production.
Traditional practices of this kind yield the highest quality of (white) fibre for spinning and weaving. Retted fibres from green husks are the most suitable fibres for dyeing and bleaching. For the production of more coarse brown yarns shorter periods of retting may be applied. These find an increasing outlet in geo-textile applications.
Alternatively, mechanical processes using either de-fibering or decorticating equipment process the husks after only five days of immersion in water tanks. Crushing the husk in a breaker opens the fibres. By using revolving "drums" the coarse long fibres are separated from the short woody parts and the pith. The stronger fibres are washed, cleaned, dried, hackled and combed.
New environmentally friendly methods for fibre production are of interest. These can be locally exploited on relative small-scale, and have the potential to produce a more constant quality of fibres. Novel developments by the Central Coir Research Institute, under Coir Board, using a bio-technological approach with specific microbial enzymes have reduced the retting time substantially to three to five days. High quality fibre production has been maintained.
Similar protocols can be developed to enhance the properties of the fibres in regard to surface properties such as smoothness and porosity. By using specific (microbial) lignolytic enzymes (laccase/phenoloxidase), the fibre surface can be bleached (or activated to react more easily with the dyes).

I have a scenario in which I have exposed a RFC as a Web service through XI. My sender is SOAP sender who invokes XI which inturn calls the RFC in SAP.
When there is any Error or exception triggered from SAP i.e invalid userid or Insufficient Authorization error I want to capture these errors and send it back to the Sender SOAP system.
I understand that I can use Fault messages but the fault message would be triggered only when my RFC throws an Exception. IF SAP triggers an exception even before the call reaches the RFC then how do I handle these errors??
for this i would advice you to create a tables parameter in RFC of type bapiret1. And update this structure for all the errors occuring with in RFC. BY doing so when an errors occurs in RFC, bapiret is filled and returned to xi which then sent to the soap sender.
We have had mixed success with fault messages. But we have found the following characteristic very consistent: we defined in RFC an exception as application exception, which is raised for unhandled exceptions and mapped this to fault message. So when an exception is raised in RFC or while getting to RFC, the message is marked as hard error in SXMB_MONI(different icon). The only downside is that the soap sender gets an error "adaptor failure".
then how u will map the error came from tables return bapi.
Hi, can anyone tell me if the solution with APPLICATION_ERROR and bapi return table worked for this problem right now I'm having the exact problem, thanks in advance.

Please join us for the opening reception on Sunday 17th of December 2017 at 6:00 pm.
In her 20's Ms. Moynihan spent many years working with Andy Warhol at Interview Magazine and "Andy Warhol's TV." Andy Warhol launched Ms. Moynihan's career as an artist and musician. She has published two bestselling works of fiction, "Yoga Hotel" and "Covergirl, and has produced three albums: "Yoga Hotel" "Bombay Superstar" and "Bangkok Taxi" about Thailand's magical capital city.
What do I love about Bangkok?
Bangkok is a feast of beauty. Every soi bursts with Brahma, Buddha, flowers, food, wats, chedis, tuk tuks, canals, gardens. It is impossible not to paint; every wat is a treasure, every soi is a spectacle, every night is a dream, every day is a miracle.
I take my sketchbook with me every day, I use pencil and watercolors - dries quickly, easy to carry. The guide books say that Bangkok has more the 400 temples, so I go hunting for new wats every weekend, driving through Bangkok for hours with my friend and motorbike taxi driver, Samlor. In Bangkok the gods and legends of the Buddhist and Hindu and Chinese pantheon are alive. The Chinese Gods melt into the Ramakien, which is woven into the Life of Lord Buddha, both avatars of Lord Vishnu.
King Bhumibol was a great inspiration to Thai artists, and in the past year of his mourning I went to many art expositions about the king and created my own series of portraits of The People's King. I worked with photographs that for decades hung in wats, markets and homes throughout Rama 9's 70-year reign. I studied the monarch, statesman, monk, soldier, musician, painter, photographer, inventor, sportsman, and was so moved by the the devotion this man had for his people, and his people's love and trust in him.
I am delighted to exhibit my work at Pikture Gallery and hope you will be able to come to our show!
** For further information on the exhibition, please do not hesitate to contact us by this email.
Open Tuesday - Sunday 9:30am. - 5:30 pm.

September 29, 2020 GDC Europe 0
Syrian rebel fighters have signed up to work for a private Turkish security company as border guards in Azerbaijan, several volunteers in Syria's last rebel stronghold have said, at a time when the long-running conflict between Baku and neighbouring Armenia is showing dangerous signs of escalation reported the Guardian newspaper.

Turkey Could Get Militarily Involved In Armenia-Azerbaijan Border Disputes?

The potential deployment is a sign of Turkey's growing appetite for projecting power abroad, and opens a third theatre in its regional rivalry with Moscow. Ankara is already engaged in a volatile power struggle with Russia in the conflicts in Syria and Libya, and tensions could now spill over into Nagorno-Karabakh.
The Guardian reported that they spoke to three men living in the last rebel-controlled corner of Syria, who said that almost a decade of war and grinding poverty had made them keen to register with militia leaders and brokers who promised work with a private Turkish security company overseas. They expect to travel over the border to Turkey before being flown to Azerbaijan.
The arrival of foreign fighters would inject a new layer of complexity into the battle between Yerevan and Baku over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region, an enclave legally considered to be part of Azerbaijan but which has been run by ethnic Armenians since it declared independence after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. The area attracts western concern because it is a major oil and gas pipeline corridor.
Turkey has strong cultural and economic ties with Azerbaijan. Russia has been traditionally close to Armenia but has forged links with the Baku elites in recent years, and continues to sell arms to both sides.
While most of the international community, including Moscow, have called for de-escalation and a return to the diplomatic process in Nagorno-Karabakh, the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, said on Sunday that Baku had his country's full support.
"The Turkish people stand with their Azeri brothers with all our means, as always," he said on Twitter, going on to criticise other nations for "double standards and insufficient reaction" against what he characterised as Armenian attacks.
Observers have questioned why Baku's highly-trained and well-armed military forces would be in need of assistance from Syrian mercenaries. Men in Syria's rebel-held Idlib province, however, say that a recruitment drive began a month ago.
On arrival Syrian rebels were told by a commander in the Turkish-backed Sultan Murad division that work was available guarding observation posts and oil and gas facilities in Azerbaijan on three or six month contracts at 7,000-10,000 Turkish lira (£700-£1,000) a month – significantly more than they could earn at home.
The commander did not give details on what the job would entail, how long the posting would be, or when they were expected to leave. The men are also not clear about the name of the Turkish security company, or who would be paying their wages.
"Our leader told us that we won't be fighting, just assisting in guarding some areas," Muhammad said. "Our salaries aren't enough for living, so we see it a great opportunity to make money."
"There are no jobs available," his brother added. "I used to work as a tailor in Aleppo but since we were displaced to Azaz [after Aleppo fell to Assad in 2016], I've tried many times to practise my craft but my family and I can't earn enough."
The promised salaries are vast sums compared with the 450-550 Turkish lira a month Syrian rebels earn from Ankara in the fight against Syrian president Bashar al-Assad.
Ankara has supported the Syrian opposition since the early days of the war, even as the original Free Syrian Army umbrella group grew weak and splintered because of infighting and the growth of Islamist elements within rebel ranks.

Turkey also uses some rebel fighters as proxies against Kurdish-led forces despite allegations of human rights abuses from watchdogs.
Since December, Ankara has also facilitated the movement of thousands of Syrian rebels to Libya as mercenaries, where they have helped turn the tide of the civil war in favour of the UN-backed government fighting warlord Khalifa Haftar.
Omar from Idlib city, who also asked for his real name not to be used, was called to Afrin on 22 September along with 150 other men and was asked to prepare to leave, only to be told later the same day the deployment had been delayed until further notice. He said he had asked around for a broker's number after hearing about the potential deployment, registering his name with a local agent on the understanding that Omar would pay him $200 (£156) of his first month's wages.
"When we first started being offered work abroad in Libya, people were afraid to go there, but now there are definitely thousands of us who are willing to go to either Libya or Azerbaijan," he said. "There is nothing for us here."
As with the Azerbaijan proposition, some men who went to Libya have said they were also told they would be employed as guards, but found themselves caught up in frontline fighting instead. Many have also reported that commanders pocketed up to 20% of their salaries.
Elizabeth Tsurkov, a fellow at the Washington DC-based Center for Global Policy, said: "The international community regards the lives of Syrians as expendable, with Syria serving as an arena to settle geostrategic scores and advance the interests of countries intervening in the country at Syrians' expense.
"Syrians resisted and still resist this logic, but the economic ruin stemming from the war and the recent depreciation of the Syrian currency mean that most Syrians are now struggling to feed themselves. Faced with few choices, many are now willing to sell themselves to the highest bidder."
Several sources in the Syrian National Army (SNA), the main umbrella of Syrian rebel groups funded by Turkey, as well as the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor, say that a first batch of 500 Syrian fighters from the SNA's Sultan Murad and Al Hamza divisions has already arrived in Azerbaijan, including two senior commanders: Fahim Eissa, the leader of Sultan Murad, and Saif Abu Bakir of Al Hamza. The Guardian could not confirm the reports.
The rumours have been bolstered by several unverified videos circulated on social media that purport to show armed Syrian rebels travelling along an Azerbaijani road in the back of pick up trucks while chanting battle songs.
Both the Armenian government and Russian media have alleged that up to 4,000 Syrian men are already present in Nagorno-Karabakh, claims which have been denied by Baku as "nonsense".
A Turkish defence ministry source said on Monday: "We strongly reject such claims. Our support consists of military advice and training of Azerbaijan's armed forces … The Turkish ministry of defence does not deal with recruiting or transferring militiamen anywhere in the world."

When is a Good Time To Take Down a Tree?
Is it Time to Take Down the Tree…For Good?
Trees are one of nature's greatest assets. They provide us with so many resources, like wood, paper, even maple syrup! Sometimes, however, there are valid reasons to remove a tree from a piece of land. How do you know when it is time to call a Long Island Tree Service? Read on to find out!
This is probably the most obvious reason to remove a tree from your property. It is strongly advisable to remove a tree as soon as you notice that it is dying. If you wait too long, decay may have set in too much. This will make it dangerous for our tree professionals to remove it and will cause a great safety concern to your family. A dying tree also spells danger for your property. No one wants a tree falling onto their house or fence. During dangerous storms, it is pretty easy for strong winds to knock over a tree that has seriously decayed.
How to Tell a Tree is Ready for Removal?
The branches are bending backward.
There are large or dead branches are falling from the tree.
There is noticeable decay on the main trunk.
Major storm damage has occurred and the tree is beyond repair.
There are noticeable cracks on the main trunk.
Visible insect infestations. There will likely kill the tree soon, or spread disease to other trees on your land.
The tree is too close to the house or other buildings, utility lines, play structures pools, causing safety concerns.
The tree is leaning towards the house or any other structure.
The tree has become an annoyance. It has been dropping seeds, sap, or branches. The tree blocks views and natural light.
The tree is just too big for your property. It poses safety issues if it were to fall or drop branches.
You are doing outdoor construction. The tree will either be mortally damaged by equipment and disturbance to the ground under it, or it is directly in the way of the construction. Consider lake grove tree removal before the construction begins.
Crowding. If your yard is overrun with trees, you may want to remove some of them. Decide which trees are worth keeping by assessing their health.
When the weather starts to get colder and the winds pick up, trees can be a safety concern for your home and your family. This can also be a good time to check to see if you're in need of a ptac replacement nyc to make sure that you and your family can keep warm.
How Can I Tell if the Tree is Worth Keeping?
You will want to bring in a professional to assess this for you. Call a tree service company and we can help you determine. There are many ways to determine a tree's health. There are also various environmental conditions and pests that advance decay or breakage. If you want to avoid removing your trees, you may want to consider some routine maintenance. This would include pruning away damaged areas to keep the trees lightweight and healthy. Keep a close eye on your trees, and regularly check for signs of damage or decay. As your trees age, decay is natural. But keeping up with them on a regular basis will allow them to stick around for years to come.
Can I Remove a Tree Myself?
This is not recommended for non-professionals. Consult a tree removal to discuss the state of your trees. Attempting to remove a tree without the help of a professional can open the doors to many accidents. Each tree is different and could have various things wrong with it. There is specific equipment required for the safe removal of trees that should only be handled by the experts. If you do decide to do it yourself, you should use a long island junk removal service to take away any branches and stumps off of your property.
If you have questions about whether or not it is time to get rid of some trees, call us to discuss your options. We will be happy to have one of our experts provide a free consultation of your property.


Look at the view from my hotel window!
I just got back from a trip to Egypt. Where I learned about Ancient Egyptians, visited the Giza Pyramids and even got to sit on an Egyptian statue. Do you see me in front of the Sphinx?
What do you think happened to the rest of him?
I was there for 4 days. You can do lots of fun things like ride camels (I was a little too nervous for that), or donkeys, visit beautiful mosques, go down under pyramids.
The weather was beautiful from 70-80s in March.
Great pictures! How long were you in Egypt?
Polly #20-What an awesome opportunity to visit the pyramids!! What other fun things is there to do in Egypt??
Just out of curiosity, how hot was it in Egypt when you were there? How hot is hot?
My dad has been to Egypt. He also saw the three pyramids.
Wow! Your dad is very lucky! I haven't been to egypt yet, but it is on my list of places I would like to see. I'm very happy that Polly #20 had the chance to visit Egypt! Is there a special country that you would like to see?

ANIMATIONS_VERSION = "1.00"

--[[
	Lua-controlled Animations Library by BMD

	Installation
	-"require" this file inside your code in order to gain access to the StartAnmiation and EndAnimation global.
	-Additionally, ensure that this file is placed in the vscripts/libraries path and that the vscripts/libraries/modifiers/modifier_animation.lua, modifier_animation_translate.lua, modifier_animation_translate.lua, and modifier_animation_freeze.lua files exist and are in the correct path

	Usage
	-Animations can be started for any unit and are provided as a table of information to the StartAnimation call
	-Repeated calls to StartAnimation for a single unit will cancel any running animation and begin the new animation
	-EndAnimation can be called in order to cancel a running animation
	-Animations are specified by a table which has as potential parameters:
		-duration: The duration to play the animation.	The animation will be cancelled regardless of how far along it is at the end fo the duration.
		-activity: An activity code which will be used as the base activity for the animation i.e. DOTA_ACT_RUN, DOTA_ACT_ATTACK, etc.
		-rate: An optional (will be 1.0 if unspecified) animation rate to be used when playing this animation.
		-translate: An optional translate activity modifier string which can be used to modify the animation sequence.
			Example: For ACT_DOTA_RUN+haste, this should be "haste"
		-translate2: A second optional translate activity modifier string which can be used to modify the animation sequence further.
			Example: For ACT_DOTA_ATTACK+sven_warcry+sven_shield, this should be "sven_warcry" or "sven_shield" while the translate property is the other translate modifier
	-A permanent activity translate can be applied to a unit by calling AddAnimationTranslate for that unit.	This allows for a permanent "injured" or "aggressive" animation stance.
	-Permanent activity translate modifiers can be removed with RemoveAnimationTranslate.
	-Animations can be frozen in place at any time by calling FreezeAnimation(unit[, duration]).	Leaving the duration off will cause the animation to be frozen until UnfreezeAnimation is called.
	-Animations can be unfrozen at any time by calling UnfreezeAnimation(unit)

	Notes
	-Animations can only play for valid activities/sequences possessed by the model the unit is using.
	-Sequences requiring 3+ activity modifier translates (i.e "stun+fear+loadout" or similar) are not possible currently in this library.
	-Calling EndAnimation and attempting to StartAnimation a new animation for the same unit withing ~2 server frames of the animation end will likely fail to play the new animation.
		Calling StartAnimation directly without ending the previous animation will automatically add in this delay and cancel the previous animation.
	-The maximum animation rate which can be used is 12.75, and animation rates can only exist at a 0.05 resolution (i.e. 1.0, 1.05, 1.1 and not 1.06)
	-StartAnimation and EndAnimation functions can also be accessed through GameRules as GameRules.StartAnimation and GameRules.EndAnimation for use in scoped lua files (triggers, vscript ai, etc)
	-This library requires that the "libraries/timers.lua" be present in your vscripts directory.

	Examples:
	--Start a running animation at 2.5 rate for 2.5 seconds
		StartAnimation(unit, {duration=2.5, activity=ACT_DOTA_RUN, rate=2.5})

	--End a running animation
		EndAnimation(unit)

	--Start a running + hasted animation at .8 rate for 5 seconds
		StartAnimation(unit, {duration=5, activity=ACT_DOTA_RUN, rate=0.8, translate="haste"})

	--Start a shield-bash animation for sven with variable rate
		StartAnimation(unit, {duration=1.5, activity=ACT_DOTA_ATTACK, rate=RandomFloat(.5, 1.5), translate="sven_warcry", translate2="sven_shield"})

	--Start a permanent injured translate modifier
		AddAnimationTranslate(unit, "injured")

	--Remove a permanent activity translate modifier
		RemoveAnimationTranslate(unit)

	--Freeze an animation for 4 seconds
		FreezeAnimation(unit, 4)

	--Unfreeze an animation
		UnfreezeAnimation(unit)

Charities' use of the internet finally may be coming of age, according to new research today which shows a dramatic rise in online activities over the last decade and a surge in charities using the net to manage their donors and supporters.
Findings from the 2005 Virtual Promise research, published today by not-for-profit thinktank nfpSynergy, show that one in three large charities (with annual turnover of £10m plus) say their trustees are involved in their internet strategy. This compares to just one in 10 in 2000 when nfpSynergy first started to track charities' use of the internet. The findings show a similar trend among medium (£1m-£10m turnover) and small (less than £1m) organisations. Across the board, the biggest jump in involvement has been in the past 12 months.
nfpSynergy research executive Ariel Spigelman says the findings challenge received wisdom that trustees aren't interested in backing online activities: "There seems to have been a step change in trustee boards directing internet strategy. They have always had responsibility for overall strategy but have been slow to move towards managing the virtual platform."
Howard Lake, publisher of the UK Fundraising website believes this shift in thinking could be down to board members bringing more diverse skills to the table.
"This might be an indication that some charity trustees are contributing expertise based on their own experience within new media or online businesses," he says.
This year's Virtual Promise research asked charities whether the internet had changed the way they look at supporter interaction. The answer was a resounding yes: 69% of large charities, 58% of medium charities and half of small organisations agreed strongly. In the next six months, a fifth of larger charities plan to introduce personalised content or an online picture resource; a facility for direct debit donations scored highly (27%) with medium-sized groups while e-newsletters were the top addition (26%) favoured by small charities.
NSPCC was one of the first UK charities to offer supporters an online account facility where they could review donations they had made and specify the type, format and frequency of information sent to them.
Mr Lake applauds this tack: "While this can take the fundraiser out of the loop, it is a far-sighted approach to allow donors far greater control of their interaction with the charity they support."
The Woodland Trust is using the internet to engage people across the country in its work, notably through a dedicated website for 'phenology', the study of natural phenomena in relation to climate. Around 20,000 people are currently recording phenomena for the trust - such as the first bluebell, blossom or cuckoo of the year. Earlier this year, the trust worked with the BBC to launch a Springwatch survey, which engaged around 80,000 people. It is just about to go live with Autumnwatch.
E-communications manager Jon Parsons says: "Some charities just see the internet as a marketing leaflet. We've taken it a step further and it's giving us a profile that we would never have had."
Sally O'Connell, web editor at Asthma UK, says 50% of new members join online while 80% of event sign ups come via the website. Many use the site's moderated message boards, which are the most popular destination.
At Dogs Trust, 40% of "sponsor a dog" sign ups come through the website. "People can see the dogs or take a virtual tour of a rehoming centre, which really helps them decide whether they want to get involved in our work," says website manager Jacqui Darlow.
A recent survey of charity fundraisers found that only 30% think of the internet as a successful fundraising tool. Yet the Virtual Promise research found that over 60% of large charities say internet has grown as income source in last 12 months.
Mr Lake believes the growth in online sponsorship of runners at events such as the London Marathon through donation websites like Justgiving and Bmycharity could contribute to this trend. In 2001, just £20,000 was raised online by London Marathon runners using the Justgiving donations website. In 2005 over £7m was raised online.
Sight Savers International says online donations to the charity have increased by 25% since last year and are up by third compared to 2003. Website coordinator Matt Blake puts this down to increased marketing to raise the charity's profile and highlight online giving. "It may depend on the type of people who are your donor base," he says. "Ours tends to be a bit older so perhaps they are becoming more confident about donating online."
Mr Parsons at the Woodland Trust admits that measuring return on online investment but says trustees and managers should think long-term: "If we can reach 100,000 people though our websites, 10,000 may get engaged on a regular basis, 5,000 may donate, 1,000 may become members and a few might even give us a legacy."
