CD Projekt: With The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077, the studio reaches exorbitant sales figures!
April 14, 2022 by sortofmag
game news CD Projekt: With The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077, the studio reaches exorbitant sales figures!
For a time, everything seemed to smile for the Polish studio. It must be said that the adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski's literary saga propelled CD Projekt to the top, which made it even more difficult to collect the fall when Cyberpunk 2077 was released. By the year 2022 -and surely the following-, the study take the opportunity to reveal amazing sales figures for its two flagship licenses!
Geralt's adventures, a success
Cyberpunk 2077 in the footsteps of The Witcher 3?
The history of CD Projekt has been marked by great ups and downs, but also great ups and downs. The three parts of The Wizard had the merit of putting the Polish studio in the spotlight, crystallizing great expectations for its future productions. Unfortunately for the teams, the last two years have tarnished the image of the company, forcing it to launch a large reconquest company around cyberpunk 2077but not only ! At this time of year it's time to take stock for video game companies and CD Projekt has decided to do the math to regain some confidence and reassure players about the company's good health.
To do this, nothing like a little communication around the sales figures of The Witcher. Very recently, the Polish studio announced that it had sold Over 65 million video games stamped The Witcher. However, whoever wins the award is undeniably the witcher 3 since it counts by itself over 40 million copies worldwide and on all platforms! A resounding success for Geralt's third adventure -which will later be able to count on the PS5 and Xbox Series versions, still delayed-, but also for the saga in general that will grow, in the coming years, with a new work.
For cyberpunk 2077, the pressure is therefore enormous in the face of figures of this magnitude! But despite a chaotic launch and a general following of the game that makes players nervous, CD Projekt's latest creation is doing well. According to the studio, Cyberpunk 2077 has sold more than 18 million copies across all media since its release., in December 2020, that is, within a period of 16 months. Coincidentally, the title catches up with the scores of the witcher 3 and if the game gets better with updates, it could perhaps even outshine it, in the long run.
In terms of figures, these are not the only data that CD Projekt offers today. According to the financial director of the study, Piotr Nielubowicz, the economic aspect is not a sensitive issue, quite the contrary. Last year, the studio's revenue totaled more than $207 million for a net profit of $48.79 million.. A very nice nest egg that has made it possible to inflate financial reserves: the latter increased by $65.3 million, despite a colossal $116.7 million allocated when the dividend was paid.

PHOENIX – A 25-year-old man accused of attacking the driver of a Greyhound bus and causing it to go off Interstate 10 in Arizona has pleaded not guilty.
Maquel Morris of Los Angeles entered the plea Wednesday during an arraignment. He faces charges that include assault and endangerment after 24 passengers were injured.
Authorities have said Morris struck the driver and attempted to take control of the steering wheel west of Phoenix on Jan. 23.
The bus went into the median before passengers helped the driver regain control.
Morris has denied striking the driver and says he's sorry that passengers were injured. He says he really wanted to get off the bus.

Cooking rice – researchers develop method that removes arsenic
Rice contains traces of arsenic in its marginal layers. Researchers have now developed a special cooking method that can be used to remove much of the contaminant. Photo: iStock
From FITBOOK | 06. November 2020, 1:18 pm
In itself, rice is a healthy food. But in addition to many important nutrients, the grains also contain traces of arsenic. This substance is considered to be highly hazardous to health. Researchers at the University of Sheffield in England have now developed a special method for removing arsenic from rice during cooking, at least to a large extent.
Rice may contain arsenic. This substance is found in soil or groundwater and enters rice grains through the roots of the plant. It is considered to be carcinogenic as well as vascular damaging and is thus highly hazardous to health
Acute arsenic poisoning is first noticed by abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, severe diarrhea and facial edema. Chronic ingestion of small amounts of arsenic over a long period of time can lead to skin changes, vascular damage, and death- and nerve damage and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Using a special cooking method to remove arsenic from rice
Because the element accumulates primarily in the marginal layers of the grain, brown rice and parboiled rice often contain greater amounts of arsenic than white rice. However, studies have shown that the arsenic content can be reduced by using the right cooking method. For one thing, this can be done by washing the rice in plenty of water, cooking it and then draining off the excess cooking water.
Instead of washing, however, a special cooking method can be used, which researchers from the University of Sheffield in England have now published in the scientific journal "Science of The Total Environment" presented. In a study, the team of the Institute for Sustainable Food had found that basmati rice contains found that the so-called "Parboiling with Absorption Method" can be used to remove arsenic from rice (PBA) was able to remove the most arsenic from rice without reducing the micronutrients it contained.
The PBA method works as follows:
Bring water to a boil (4 cups of water per 1 cup of rice)
Add rice and cook for 5 minutes
Pour off the water afterwards, but leave the rice in the pot
Add fresh water to the pot (now 2 cups of water for every 1 cup of rice)
Continue cooking rice on low to medium heat with a lid until the water is completely absorbed
In this way, more than 50 percent of the naturally occurring arsenic in brown rice and 74 percent in white rice is said to be removed.
Öco-test: 12 out of 21 rice varieties contain a worrying amount of arsenic
The consumer magazineoko-Test tested the extent to which conventional rice from the supermarket is actually contaminated with arsenic. Seven different types of parboiled long grain, basmati and whole grain rice were closely examined. The test results published in the July 2020 issue are alarming: arsenic was detected in all 21 products tested by the laboratory. While in the Basmatireis the load with the krebserregenden substance turned out rather small, this looked less pleasing with nature and Parboiled long grain rice. "We found arsenic in all 21 products, carcinogenic arsenic", says Kerstin Scheidecker from Stiftungoko-Test to "MDR". In many products there were only small traces, but in some there were alarmingly high levels. Overall, she speaks of a "disturbing result".
The fact that basmati rice generally has a lower arsenic content is, incidentally, due to the fact that it is husked rice. This is because pollutants and pesticides, as well as vitamins and minerals, accumulate mainly in the husk of the rice grain. Whole grain rice is therefore much more susceptible to contaminant exposure.
Arsenic in rice could exceed 50.000 preventable deaths
The fact that arsenic is very harmful to health is also supported by a recent study by the University of Manchester, which was published in the journal "Science of The Total Environment" was published.
Scientists found a link between deaths from cardiovascular disease and rice consumption in people in England and Wales. Thus, those who were among the 25 percent of people with the highest rice consumption were six percent more likely to die from cardiovascular disease than those who fell among the 25 percent with the lowest rice consumption.
According to a recent estimate by researchers, the toxic arsenic in rice could boost more than 50.Cause 000 preventable premature deaths per year.
How much rice should you eat?
Consumers should always alternate meals containing rice with rice-free meals, advises the Bavarian Consumer Advice Center. This is especially true for infants and young children who eat a lot of rice over porridge or waffles.
But you don't have to go completely without rice. "Rice is a valuable food that contains numerous important nutrients such as protein, Contains vitamins, minerals and fiber. Rice should therefore continue to be part of a balanced diet", The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment already explained in a publication from August 2015.
However, the BfR warns: "No safe intake level can be defined for the carcinogenic, i.e. cancer-causing, effect of inorganic arsenic. Health risks in terms of potentially increasing the risk of cancer from ingesting inorganic arsenic due to eating rice and rice products are therefore possible."

How to add a custom translatable model?
=======================================

In this guide we will create a new translatable model in our system, which is quite similar to :doc:`adding a simple model </cookbook/entities/custom-model>`,
although it requires some additional steps.

As an example we will take a **translatable Supplier entity**, which may be really useful for shop maintenance.

1. Define your needs
--------------------

A Supplier needs three essential fields: ``name``, ``description`` and ``enabled`` flag.
The **name and description** fields need to be translatable.

2. Generate the SupplierTranslation entity
------------------------------------------

Symfony, the framework Sylius uses, provides the `SensioGeneratorBundle <http://symfony.com/doc/current/bundles/SensioGeneratorBundle/index.html>`_,
that simplifies the process of adding a model.

.. warning::

    Remember to have the ``SensioGeneratorBundle`` imported in the AppKernel, as it is not there by default.

You need to use such a command in your project directory.

.. code-block:: bash

    $ php bin/console generate:doctrine:entity

The generator will ask you for the entity name and fields. See how it should look like to match our assumptions.

.. image:: ../../_images/generating_translation_entity.png
    :align: center

As you can see we have provided only the desired translatable fields.

Below the final ``SupplierTranslation`` class is presented, it implements the ``ResourceInterface``.

.. code-block:: php

    <?php

    namespace AppBundle\Entity;

    use Sylius\Component\Resource\Model\AbstractTranslation;
    use Sylius\Component\Resource\Model\ResourceInterface;

    class SupplierTranslation extends AbstractTranslation implements ResourceInterface
    {
        /**
         * @var int
         */
        private $id;

        /**
         * @var string
         */
        private $name;

        /**
         * @var string
         */
        private $description;

        /**
         * @return int
         */
        public function getId()
        {
            return $this->id;
        }

        /**
         * @param string $name
         */
        public function setName($name)
        {
            $this->name = $name;
        }

        /**
         * @return string
         */
        public function getName()
        {
            return $this->name;
        }

        /**
         * @param string $description
         */
        public function setDescription($description)
        {
            $this->description = $description;
        }

        /**
         * @return string
         */
        public function getDescription()
        {
            return $this->description;
        }
    }

3. Generate the Supplier entity
-------------------------------

While generating the entity, similarly to the way the translation was generated, we are providing only non-translatable fields.
In our case only the ``enabled`` field.

.. image:: ../../_images/generating_basic_entity.png
    :align: center

Having the stubs generated, we need to extend our class with a connection to SupplierTranslation.

* implement the ``ResourceInterface``,
* implement the ``TranslatableInterface``,
* use the ``TranslatableTrait``,
* initialize the translations collection in the constructor,
* add the ``createTranslation()`` method,
* implement getters and setters for the properties that are held on the translation model.

As a result you should get such a ``Supplier`` class:

.. code-block:: php

    <?php

    namespace AppBundle\Entity;

    use Sylius\Component\Resource\Model\ResourceInterface;
    use Sylius\Component\Resource\Model\TranslatableInterface;
    use Sylius\Component\Resource\Model\TranslatableTrait;

    class Supplier implements ResourceInterface, TranslatableInterface
    {
        use TranslatableTrait {
            __construct as private initializeTranslationsCollection;
        }

        public function __construct()
        {
            $this->initializeTranslationsCollection();
        }

        /**
         * @var int
         */
        private $id;

        /**
         * @var bool
         */
        private $enabled;

        /**
         * @return int
         */
        public function getId()
        {
            return $this->id;
        }

        /**
         * @param string $name
         */
        public function setName($name)
        {
            $this->getTranslation()->setName($name);
        }

        /**
         * @return string
         */
        public function getName()
        {
            return $this->getTranslation()->getName();
        }

        /**
         * @param string $description
         */
        public function setDescription($description)
        {
            $this->getTranslation()->setDescription($description);
        }

        /**
         * @return string
         */
        public function getDescription()
        {
            return $this->getTranslation()->getDescription();
        }

        /**
         * @param boolean $enabled
         */
        public function setEnabled($enabled)
        {
            $this->enabled = $enabled;
        }

        /**
         * @return bool
         */
        public function getEnabled()
        {
            return $this->enabled;
        }

        /**
         * {@inheritdoc}
         */
        protected function createTranslation()
        {
            return new SupplierTranslation();
        }
    }

4. Update the database using migrations
---------------------------------------

Assuming that your database was up-to-date before adding the new entity, run:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ php bin/console doctrine:migrations:diff

This will generate a new migration file which adds the Supplier entity to your database.
Then update the database using the generated migration:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

5. Register your entity together with translation as a Sylius resource
----------------------------------------------------------------------

If you don't have it yet create a file ``app/config/resources.yml``, import it in the ``app/config/config.yml``.

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/config.yml
    imports:
        - { resource: "resources.yml" }

And add these few lines in the ``resources.yml`` file:

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/resources.yml
    sylius_resource:
        resources:
            app.supplier:
                driver: doctrine/orm # You can use also different driver here
                classes:
                    model: AppBundle\Entity\Supplier
                translation:
                    classes:
                        model: AppBundle\Entity\SupplierTranslation

To check if the process was run correctly run such a command:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ php bin/console debug:container | grep supplier

The output should be:

.. image:: ../../_images/container_debug_supplier_translation.png
    :align: center

6. Prepare new forms for your entity, that will be aware of its translation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

You will need both ``SupplierType`` and ``SupplierTranslationType``.

Let's start with the translation type, as it will be included into the entity type.

.. code-block:: php

    <?php

    namespace AppBundle\Form\Type;

    use Sylius\Bundle\ResourceBundle\Form\Type\AbstractResourceType;
    use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextareaType;
    use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextType;
    use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;

    class SupplierTranslationType extends AbstractResourceType
    {
        /**
         * {@inheritdoc}
         */
        public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
        {
            $builder
                ->add('name', TextType::class)
                ->add('description', TextareaType::class, [
                    'required' => false,
                ])
            ;
        }

        /**
         * {@inheritdoc}
         */
        public function getBlockPrefix()
        {
            return 'app_supplier_translation';
        }
    }

On the ``SupplierTranslationType`` we need to define only the translatable fields.

Then let's prepare the entity type, that will include the translation type.

.. code-block:: php

    <?php

    namespace AppBundle\Form\Type;

    use Sylius\Bundle\ResourceBundle\Form\Type\AbstractResourceType;
    use Sylius\Bundle\ResourceBundle\Form\Type\ResourceTranslationsType;
    use Sylius\Component\Resource\Translation\Provider\TranslationLocaleProviderInterface;
    use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\CheckboxType;
    use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextareaType;
    use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextType;
    use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;

    class SupplierType extends AbstractResourceType
    {
        /**
         * {@inheritdoc}
         */
        public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
        {
            $builder
                ->add('translations', ResourceTranslationsType::class, [
                    'entry_type' => SupplierTranslationType::class,
                ])
                ->add('enabled', CheckboxType::class, [
                    'required' => false,
                ])
            ;
        }

        /**
         * {@inheritdoc}
         */
        public function getBlockPrefix()
        {
            return 'app_supplier';
        }
    }

7. Register the new forms as services
-------------------------------------

Before the newly created forms will be ready to use them, they need to be registered as services:

.. code-block:: yaml

    # AppBundle/Resources/config/services.yml
    services:
        app.supplier.form.type:
            class: AppBundle\Form\Type\SupplierType
            tags:
                - { name: form.type }
            arguments: ['%app.model.supplier.class%', ['sylius']]
        app.supplier_translation.form.type:
            class: AppBundle\Form\Type\SupplierTranslationType
            tags:
                - { name: form.type }
            arguments: ['%app.model.supplier_translation.class%', ['sylius']]

8. Register the forms as resource forms of the Supplier entity
--------------------------------------------------------------

Extend the resource configuration of the ``app.supplier`` with forms:

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/resources.yml
    sylius_resource:
        resources:
            app.supplier:
                driver: doctrine/orm # You can use also different driver here
                classes:
                    model: AppBundle\Entity\Supplier
                    form: AppBundle\Form\Type\SupplierType
                translation:
                    classes:
                        model: AppBundle\Entity\SupplierTranslation
                        form: AppBundle\Form\Type\SupplierTranslationType

9. Define grid structure for the new entity
-------------------------------------------

To have templates for your Entity administration out of the box you can use Grids. Here you can see how to configure a grid for the Supplier entity.

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/grids/admin/supplier.yml
    sylius_grid:
        grids:
            app_admin_supplier:
                driver:
                    name: doctrine/orm
                    options:
                        class: AppBundle\Entity\Supplier
                fields:
                    name:
                        type: string
                        label: sylius.ui.name
                        sortable: translation.name
                    enabled:
                        type: twig
                        label: sylius.ui.enabled
                        options:
                            template: "@SyliusUi/Grid/Field/enabled.html.twig"
                actions:
                    main:
                        create:
                            type: create
                    item:
                        update:
                            type: update
                        delete:
                            type: delete

Remember to import your grid in the ``app/config/grids/grids.yml`` file which has to be imported in the ``app/config/config.yml``.

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/grids/grids.yml
    imports:
        - { resource: 'admin/supplier.yml' }

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/config.yml
    imports:
        - { resource: "grids/grids.yml" }

10. Create template
-------------------

.. code-block:: php

    # AppBundle/Resources/views/Supplier/_form.yml
    {% from '@SyliusAdmin/Macro/translationForm.html.twig' import translationForm %}

    {{ form_errors(form) }}
    {{ translationForm(form.translations) }}
    {{ form_row(form.enabled) }}

11. Define routing for entity administration
--------------------------------------------

Having a grid prepared we can configure routing for the entity administration:

Create the ``app/config/routing/admin/supplier.yml`` file. Include it in the ``app/config/routing/admin/admin.yml``, which
should be also included in the ``app/config/routing.yml``.

.. code-block:: yaml

    # app/config/routing/admin/supplier.yml
    app_admin_supplier:
        resource: |
            alias: app.supplier
            section: admin
            templates: SyliusAdminBundle:Crud
            redirect: update

Douglas County Smart Energy has long understood the incredible economic benefits and energy savings possible through efficiency measures. That's why it has made it a goal to spread the word of these cost saving opportunities to the Douglas County community.
In April 2016, they decided a community-wide outreach campaign was the best way to reach this goal. Seeking guidance for the campaign and someone to help coordinate the program, the group applied for an Americorps volunteer through the RARE program. After months of fundraising and deliberation, Douglas County secured a spot as a community in the RARE Americorps program and began interviewing potential candidates. I was selected and arrived in Roseburg in September to begin as the Energy Efficiency Community Coordinator.
Driving across country from Georgia, I made the long trek to live in Roseburg for a one-year term, working with UCAN and DC Smart Energy. Using expertise in community development and education gleaned from my time in the Peace Corps, I've helped DC Smart Energy develop ENERGIZE! Douglas County. Kicking off this month, the ENERGIZE! campaign will feature a series of town hall talks throughout Douglas County that will inform people on various tips and tricks that can be used to save money and energy.
If saving energy, living comfortably and seeing your utility bill shrink sounds good to you, come out and learn about energy efficiency. Energy efficiency is the principle that you can perform the same tasks but use less energy to perform them. We will be highlighting the different behaviors and technologies available that community members can utilize to become energy efficient!
Behavior change is a free way to start saving money, but unfortunately the technology upgrades cost money. Some of you may have thought about making energy efficient upgrades to your home, but put on the brakes when you saw the prices. Now you can make those upgrades with a little help. Attendees will learn about various incentives they are eligible for that will allow them to make energy efficient upgrades for cheap.
Besides teaching citizens how to stay cozy without breaking the bank, the campaign also hopes to gain volunteers for a Baseline Energy Profile. This project will take energy readings from homes around Douglas County, before and after energy efficient upgrades have been made to the home. This information will be compiled into a report which will then be presented to the local governments around the county. It is our hope that these findings will be the first step in creating an energy plan for the county.
Whether you are ready to upgrade your home or curious about energy efficiency, come out and join us. The first talk in the series will take place from 6 to 8 p.m. Jan. 30 at the Douglas County Library in Roseburg. The talk will feature a presentation on all things energy efficient as well as a special guest speaker from the Energy Trust of Oregon.
If you can't make the first talk, the second talk is scheduled for Feb. 2 in Myrtle Creek followed by several more throughout Douglas County!
If you would like to help support the ENERGIZE! Douglas County Campaign, come out to Lookingglass Brewery at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 24 to enjoy beers, food and good company! Thanks to the wonderful owners at Lookingglass Brewery, Mark and Lydia Nunnelee, because 25 percent of all of the proceeds will go toward the campaign.
For more information on dates and times for the upcoming town hall talks, check the Douglas County Smart Energy Facebook page.
For tips on other ways to save and produce energy, visit dcsmartenergy.org. Douglas County Smart Energy is a project of the Douglas Count Global Warming Coalition. For more information about the coalition, call 541-672-9819 or find it on Facebook at DCSmartEnergy.


True dwarf shines in the shade!
Nature Hills has the definitive answer for you!
This semi-evergreen is a true 'plant it and forget it' shrub. It doesn't need pruning or coddling to keep it looking great. It fits into any garden style from modern to cottage to rustic. It is great around architectural features, under windows or around ponds as it accents but stays low enough to not cover or block views.
This is a wonderful and hardworking landscape shrub. If you need good filler or groundcover, then order some today!


NEET-UG scores will be used to seek admissions in private medical colleges and medical colleges run by Central Government. Also the 15% seats in state government colleges will also be filled through NEET-UG results.
85% of the seats in state government run medical colleges will be filled by the state medical entrance exams. Some exams were already conducted and hence their scores will be valid and other exams that were pending will be held very soon.
NEET-UG Phase 2 exam will happen on July 24 as per schedule and students will be allowed to appear for this exam in order to enable them to apply for private medical colleges and the 15% seats in state colleges.
NEET-UG Phase 2 will be open for all students even those who have appeared in NEET-UG Phase 1. If students appear in Phase 2 then their Phase 1 scores will be cancelled.
This information is as per last Supreme Court ruling, subject to change once NEET-UG Phase 2 exam information is released.
This exemption is provided for the year 2016 only. From next year onwards the proposed Supreme Court-mandated single all-India entrance exam, NEET-UG will happen and all central, state and private medical colleges are scheduled to follow that.

Mobile dental clinic ready for the road
Engineering Projects in Community Service project puts students to work.
EPICS program helps students solve problems, gain professional skills.
ASU engineering students develop, deliver self-sustaining trailer operation that nonprofit organization will send to Nicaragua
After four years, $80,000 and innumerable obstacles, a team of ASU engineering students has completed a mobile dental clinic to dispatch to developing nations.
The team, Engineering Smiles, gained momentum from the Engineering Projects in Community Service program, which puts students together with nonprofits, community groups and governmental agencies to help solve problems and develop professional skills.
"Getting this finished is just about the best graduation present I could ask for," said Sara Mantlik, the team leader.
For their project, Engineering Smiles partnered with California-based nonprofit IMAHelps, which organizes missions to Central and South America to provide medical and dental care to underprivileged populations.
Mantlik and fellow mechanical engineering graduate student Nick Kemme have been with the project since its inception, even as other team members have graduated or moved on to other work. They're both slated to graduate with their master's in mechanical engineering this spring.
"We were concerned we weren't going to be able to finish our fundraising goal, but things really came together in the last month and a half," Kemme said.
The completed clinic is housed in a trailer measuring 24 feet long and 8 feet wide and comes equipped with two dental operatories and a sterilization area.
For the past four years, the Engineering Smiles team has been working to design, fund and deliver a mobile dental clinic to a partner organization, the goal of their Engineering Projects in Community Service project. Mechanical engineering graduate students Sara Mantlik and Nick Kemme have been with the project since its inception.

The clinic is outfitted with two dental operatories, carts, tools and a sterilization area. Catalina Laboratory Products donated equipment and materials, including the clinic's flooring, cabinets and furnishings.
The clinic is housed in a 24- by 8-foot trailer, complete with its own diesel generator and air-conditioning. Making the clinic mobile and self-sustaining were top priorities.
Catalina Laboratory Products, a Tucson-based company, donated materials and services, including the clinic's cabinetry, flooring and upgraded furnishings.
"They donated their time, materials and manpower. We went down to Tucson, picked out what we wanted for the trailer and laid it out how we wanted it," Kemme said. "It was such a huge help."
The air-conditioned clinic is powered by a diesel generator and can be set up in a range of conditions and operate self-sufficiently.
Mantlik, who went on a mission to El Salvador with IMAHelps in 2015, made the clinic's self-sufficiency a priority.
"Sometimes they spend at least 12 hours trying to adapt what they have to fit the environment they're working in," Mantlik said of the IMAHelps missions. "That, combined with the unreliable power in the areas they work in, can mean almost 300 patients that don't get care."
Engineering Smiles soon will be handing the clinic off to IMAHelps, and the organization will take responsibility for getting it to Nicaragua. The clinic will reside at Universidad Católica de Nicaragua, where it will be used as a training aide for dentistry students when not in use by IMAHelps.
Following graduation, Mantlik is taking a break and traveling through Europe before going to work for GE Healthcare, entering its operation management leadership program.
Kemme will begin his career with General Atomics in San Diego as an optomechanical engineer, but not before taking a break to bike and camp in Zion National Park in Utah, as well as a family vacation to Hawaii.
"The Engineering Smiles team wants to give a special thanks to their top supporters, including Catalina Laboratory Products, Thomas Prescott, EPICS@ASU, Mr. & Mrs. Geyser, the Elliott Endowment Commitment, the A.T. Still University Physician Assistant Class of 2018, Mrs. Norton and Mr. Kern," Mantlik said. "Due to the generosity and support of these and over 100 other individuals, the Engineering Smiles team successfully built a mobile dental clinic from inception to implementation."

Editor's note: This is part of a series of profiles for spring 2017 commencement. See more graduates here.
Nearly 60 years old, Cindi Tanner isn't your typical student at Arizona State University.
Baking cookies for her classmates, sitting in the front row for every class and craving knowledge, information and resources were cornerstones of her educational emergence.
"My story is a little bit different because I'm older," said Tanner, a transfer student from GateWay Community College. "I had to work so much harder to be competitive with the young students, but I never felt unwelcome anywhere on this beautiful campus."
Tanner is graduating with concurrent bachelor's degrees in anthropology and sociology from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. This milestone accomplishment for Tanner has immense value because she's always emphasized the inspiration of education, literature, music and arts to her five children.
"I have my cap and gown hanging in my bedroom where I can look at it every day, and it's kind of unbelievable," Tanner said. "I never thought I could perform at this level. After being subjected to a dangerous domestic violence environment my entire adult life, it was astounding to me that I could compete with such young, bright people. My hunger for my formal education in part was an effort to catch up for all those years I had to focus on survival."
Tanner's passion for human societies and cultures surfaced when she was 17, but she didn't know it had a name until later as she raised her children and collected books on cultural anthropology. After nearly 35 years of marriage, Tanner escaped intimate partner violence and stepped "into the void" of her new life. She said it was terrifying, but a class schedule and backpack full of textbooks filled her with joy and hope.
"When I was younger, I was told I could be a mommy, a secretary, a nurse or a teacher – and that's truly the way it was. Now, it's limitless and women have more opportunities than ever," Tanner said. "There's no guarantee that I'm going to get a better paying job because I'm already at the threshold of senior citizenship; but I absolutely have the chance to pursue what I adore."
Indulging in her quest for more knowledge and validation, Tanner personally invested herself into her life-long dream of a university degree. Fatigue, on-going family crises, financial instability and self-doubt were dominating challenges filled with uncertainty. Launching a new module in Pre-Colonial Mesoamerica, reading an ethnographic clinical study or exploring the social structures of ancient and modern societies, however, delivered a very predictable reward: Tanner couldn't get enough.
"Being older has some inevitable drawbacks," Tanner said. "As a non-traditional student, I can't remember things the way I used to when I was younger. On weekends, I do nothing but school work. My time investment as a student is super precious."
Although Tanner was an empty nester while at ASU, she used her skills from being a mother of five to tackle her schoolwork. She said she was the queen of organization and time management, which were essential to her success as an undergraduate.
"Sometimes a student comes into my course and really brings me joy. I've had Cindi Tanner in two such courses," said Kathy Thomas, instructor in the College of Integrative Sciences and Arts. "She has incredible dedication to her work and is focused on academic excellence. She's always striving for a better understanding. It's been a pleasure to work with her. She's an amazing woman."
The biggest shock Tanner encountered as a non-traditional student was the online format for exams.
"I'm a different generation. I remember when we had rotary phones. I remember watching the moon landing. And, I remember when President John F. Kennedy was shot," Tanner said. "I had no idea that I'd have to take complex exams in the digital format with a little clock ticking down."
While the online exams weren't her favorite aspect of the modern college experience, Tanner did enjoy classes where writing was very intensive – both in online discussions and academic papers.
"That was pure gold to me because I finally had an outlet to apply critical thinking and express my thoughts," Tanner said. "There's a point where trauma kind of dictates who you are, and it's very difficult to escape that faulty definition. My experience has given me a powerful voice that you don't hear often from people who have survived what I have. So, I really thrived on the opportunity to be heard, especially when instructors were willing to share constructive feedback!"
Tanner hopes her story will help start a national dialogue about the interrelatedness of addictions, domestic violence, and emotional/mental disorders because it's a social health crisis, she said.
"After hearing my story, the number of women who've disclosed to me they've been assaulted or know someone who's currently in a dangerous relationship is astonishing. And, the lifelong injury and damage inflicted by it is ubiquitous," Tanner said. "This social dilemma thrives in silence, particularly within faith communities. The more we're unwilling to confront addictions and abuse as a pathology with a high rate of generational transference, the more powerful it is. The only way to expose perpetration and demand accountability is transparency."
Tanner said she is profoundly grateful for the ASU community, which supported her every step of the way on her reinvention journey.
"My fear of being ostracized or marginalized as the granny didn't materialize," she said. "I appreciate the supportive instructors who were sensitive to my social demographics. I appreciate my young, beautiful classmates who were kind to me and didn't speak to me in a belittling way. I was always treated with respect. Honestly, I had a little tear in my eye every time I walked on campus."
After graduation, Tanner plans to continue with a hybrid master's and doctorate degree program in anthropology (complex adaptive systems science). She also hopes to fulfill the American dream of buying a home and planting a tree.
"Don't take this moment for granted," she said. "I know my life story is not totally unique because we've all come from some kind of obstacle or barrier, but what is unique is what we're willing to do with it. Almost anyone can probably pass a class, but what's our destiny? What's our motivation? What's our hunger to show what we can do with our education afterwards when no one is grading our performance? That's the real test."

Arthur: Owe it to our fans, owe it to ourselves.
The Dyldam Parramatta Eels are preparing to take on the Brisbane Broncos this Friday night (12 August) at Suncorp Stadium for Round 23 of the NRL Telstra Premiership, and speaking ahead of the clash, Head Coach Brad Arthur says there is much more to play for than just the two points this week.
Expecting a tough physical clash against a Broncos side looking to kick start their run home, Arthur expects a tough grinding game.
"It's always a tough physical game against the Broncos. They started really well and showed a few signs of fatigue through the Origin period, but I think they are looking to get themselves back on track leading into a finals series," Arthur said.
"We have to play pretty smart with our completions. Every team that has won this year has had more possession than their opposition so possession is a big thing," Arthur added.
With the Blue and Gold faced with plenty of off-field distractions in 2016, Arthur was proud of the way his side had handled themselves.
However the Head Coach said the side needed to continue with the same effort that they had shown this year in their final remaining four games of the season.
"We have had the confidence all year. Even our losses over the last month have been close and we have been fighting and been in the game at some point but it's just making sure in the crucial parts of the game we come up with the right play or make sure we are focused defensively," Arthur said.
"I am extremely proud of them and I think we are playing for a bit more than pride," Arthur added.
The Eels will be without Beau Scott who has been ruled out through injury, with Arthur confirming it provides a great opportunity for forward David Gower.
"Fortunately last week it was the first time all year we have had our full complement of forwards to choose from," Arthur said.
"We lose Beau this week, and Gowie missed out last week, but he gets another opportunity. In the week before that it was his best game when we played the Tigers so it might have been a tough call on my behalf, but everyone will step up." Arthur added.
And with fullback Michael Gordon set to play his 200th game, Arthur says the side will be looking to put in a real tough performance in his milestone.
"He has been great for us Flash, he plays tough, a different role for us as a fullback to a lot of other clubs. He is more of a runner, his support is great and he puts his body on the line and I am sure the boys will want to repay him with a real hard, tough performance and they need to play the way he does which is nice and tough," Arthur said.
"Mick has made a decision, and we were happy to keep him next year but he has a better opportunity," Arthur added.
The Eels kick off against the Brisbane Broncos at Suncorp Stadium on Friday 12 August. Kick off at 7:50pm.


Since we are right in Philadelphia's front yard, and since Philadelphia is one of the nations greatest row-house cities, it was only a matter of time until circumstances conspired to pressure us to explore a stock plan of a row-house.
Row-houses are not particularly suited to the idea of house plans. Its not like you can float the house on a lot with yards on all four sides. The lot size becomes the house width, and the prospect of finding a match between a floor plan and a lot size is almost slim to none. So what that means is to offer a stock design for a row house it has to be a flexible design that can work for a range of lot widths. Philadelphia has lots that range from 12ft for the narrowest up to 23 feet for the widest, but most fall between 14-18 ft wide.
Is that really possible? Well that's what we've set out to discover. The first task was to test ideas for the arrangement of interior spaces and functions to see what plans might be tolerant of a variable lot width. Then I'll take my hunches into measured sketches to see if the numbers add up, if the hunch flies.
I want to test two general arrangements, front kitchen or rear kitchen. Each offers some distinct advantages and both are worth seeing through to a schematic level. But for either there would be some ground rules.
Space is a premium in city houses, so some "features" people have come to expect in suburban houses will simply be too extravagant for this exercise. These houses are meant to be modest and affordable homes. For instance, a ground floor powder room is going to be very unlikely. Guests will simply have to go upstairs. And upstairs its unlikely there will be a master suite with a master bathroom, but rather a shared hall bathroom. These are situations that are not uncommon for our modest existing row house stock in cities like Philadelphia, so we will follow the lead of the existing houses, take them as precedent and not try to turn this into a suburban dream house. These are not compromises, but rather this is the status quo if you have ever lived in a 100 year old row home in a city that dates back to the birth of our nation. So lets see where that takes us.


After yet another magnificent weekend of racing, what can we mull-over, on Monday?
Musselburgh and Windsor both hold meetings, but it's Yarmouth's card that stands out. The Listed Beckford Stakes (3:10pm) is the feature contest and Frankie Dettori will be on-board Luca Cumani's Aljezeera. Dubka will be ridden by Ryan Moore.
8 races are being held at Fairview and matters get underway with a maiden, at 12:10pm. Big Three has (aptly) finished 3rd, in his last 3 encounters. Raymond Danielson take the reins and trainer Dorrie Sham will expect nothing less than a first victory for the 4-year-old.
The Prix des Lais de Mer (12:25pm) looks the pick of Clairfontaine's races and a British raider has gone behind enemy lines, for this one. Maxime Guyon has been given steering duties, on the 7-year-old Boomshackerlacker.
The G1 Betfair Chase, (Haydock, Saturday, November 25th) should be a real cracker, if our ante-post market is anything to go by. Punters are already getting stuck into the likes of Cue Card, Sizing John and Nicky Henderson's Might Bite.

Cheese It! Start making cheese at home today
Cole Dawson
From the editors of Hobby Farm Homes, Cheese It! provides a detailed introductory guide for making cheese at home, from easy-to-make soft cheeses like mozzarella, goat cheese, and cottage cheese to more challenging cheeses like Monterey Jack, parmesan, and aged gouda. Author Cole Dawson tackles four dozen different kinds of cheese, beginning with making butter, ghee, and sour cream from scratch and progressing to soft unripe cheeses such as paneer, chèvre, ricotta, and feta. International in its scope, each subsequent chapter tackles different kinds of cheeses, the tricks to success, and examples and recipes for each.
The chapter on unripe cheeses is followed by stretched curds, incorporating the brine bath to make mozzarella, asadero, provolone, and scamorza. Pressing and aging semi-hard cheese yield traditional Cheddar and variations, such as sage derby and goat Cheddar, plus Cantal, Monterey Jack, Cotswold, Caerphilly, and Caciotta. The process of washing curds to reduce the acidic level is the key creating cheeses like Colby, Gouda, and Edam, while washing rinds along with proper aging are the secrets to muenster, brick, raclette, Taleggio, and Tilsit. Using bacteria in cheese is key to making bloomy rinds, such as the triple-cream delights Camembert and Brie, and molded cheese, such as gorgonzola, Roquefort, and Stilton.
Ideal for new cheese makers, the book begins with chapters explaining the science involved in the process as well as safety precautions, basic skills, and the equipment that is required to begin making cheese in the kitchen. A total of 75 recipes includes delicious options to incorporate homemade cheeses, such as feta in spanakopita, mascarpone in tiramisu, mozzarella in polenta pizza, and chicken á la gorgonzola.
As the author emphasizes the importance of record keeping (so you can repeat your successes and not your "oopses"), the book concludes with a sample cheese diary so the cheese maker can account for timing, pressure, temperatures, and so forth. Finally, there is a very useful 5-page glossary of terms, a resource section for cheese-making supplies and websites, and a detailed 7-page index.

still stand—Creamery Lane or Cheese Hill—even if they are long gone. During long winters, when the herd's milk supply dwindled, creamery cheese generated much-needed income. As family farms disappeared across the landscape, consolidation became an economic necessity. Vermont's Cabot Creamery is a prime example. In 1919, ninety-four Vermont farmers pooled their resources and paid five dollars per cow. Today, Cabot has 1,274 member farms in New England and upstate New York and sells a ton of its
cheese wrap and store it in the fridge. Gorgonzola Like Roquefort, Gorgonzola was originally cured in caves—caves of the Valsassina Valley near Milan. While Roquefort—made with sheep's milk—is crumbly and salty, Lombardy's most famous cheese—made with cow's milk—is creamy and sweet. Gorgonzola dolce is the familiar version, aged 6 months. A sharper, piccante version is aged at least a year and is washed with brine to encourage the growth of surface bacteria and a powerful aroma.
cattle like open spaces, abundant vegetation, and temperate climates, so they adapted well to their new home, giving milk that was rich with high moisture content and large fat globules that rose to the surface as cream—in other words, this milk was ideal for cheese making. On the farm, milking occurred twice a day, and cheeses were a mixture of the morning milk and that of the previous evening. Today's commercial cows are bred to produce huge quantities of milk—three times as much as the

Amin Mjasiri called October 19th.
Has been in immigration detention for 28 months.
This interview was recorded on Thursday October 10th and features Azuka Abagbodi, an immigration detainee originally from Nigeria. In this interview, Azuka speaks on his decision to start again on another hunger strike this upcoming monday. Also touched on, is his desire for Canada to implement a 90 day policy on indefinite detention as well as his opinion on the detention hearings that currently take place when one is held as an immigration detainee.
Azuka Abagbodi arrived to Canada as a refugee and had been living and working in Canada as a permanent resident for several years. He was detained after CBSA informed him that he had "failed to comply" to the interviews that he was mandated to attend following a prior conviction for which he had already served a sentence. However, Mr. Abagbodi maintains that he has never missed a meeting and that his wife is able to proove this. To this date, CBSA has not allowed her to speak at a single hearing.
The following is an interview with immigration detainee Chukwueneke Anike. Chukwueneke spent a bit of time in the Maplehurst before arriving in Lindsay Ontario. In this interview Chukwueneke touches on the fact that despite having a cyst in his head that his causing him great amount of pain, the medical staff at the CECC in Lindsay have only responded by perscribing him tylenol.
the following is one of our most recent interview with detainee Ayad Alshmmaray. Ayad Alshammaray has been in immigration detention for 5 years and 8 months despite the fact that he served his full sentence for prior convictions. His home country of Iraq will not receive him as he has been deemed a "security risk" by the CBSA. Ayad Alshammaray is also suffering from lung cancer and has not been receive the appropriate attention while in detention. He is worried that he will die from cancer while in detention. Currently, Alshammaray is trying to contact his embassy but is not being given permission by security guards in the correctional facility. This is his story.
Mina Ramos interviewed Erik Kusi, who is detained and on strike in CECC.

Q: Is the one-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the graph of a continuous function defined on $[0,1]$ at least 1? Let $f:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$ be continuous. We define the graph of $f$ to be the set
$$\text{graph}\,f=\{(x,f(x)):x\in [0,1]\}.$$
Is
$\mathcal{H}^1(\text{graph}\,f)\ge 1$, where $\mathcal{H}^1$ is the one-dimensional Hausdorff measure on $\mathbb{R}^2$?
I know that if $f$ is Lipschitz continuous, then it is differentiable almost everywhere and
$$\mathcal{H}^1(\text{graph}\,f)=\int_0^1\sqrt{1+(f'(x))^2}dx\ge 1.$$
I believe that the result still holds in the case where $f$ is just continuous but I don't know how to show this.

A: In fact, $f$ doesn't even need to be continuous.  Hint: Consider the projection $\pi_1: (x,y) \to x$ which maps the graph onto $[0,1]$.

Home/News/Local/A day early, ACLU files response to Utah's stay request
A day early, ACLU files response to Utah's stay request
StaffJuly 17, 2014
Earlier this week Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States for a stay in the case of Evans v. Utah. That story was reported by QSaltLake on July 16. Today, the American Civil Liberties Union of Utah filed their response, a day ahead of the deadline established by the Supreme Court.
The plaintiffs in Evans are asking the courts to force the state of Utah to recognize their marriages, based upon the fact that they were legal under Utah and federal law at the point into which they were entered. They are asking for their marriages to carry with them the same legal benefits currently enjoyed by opposite-sex married couples in Utah.
In his filing, Reyes argued that the approximately 1,300 couples that entered into legal weddings between December 20, 2013 and January 6, 2014 were doing so in an attempt at "circumvention" of the Supreme Court's stay. He further argued that allowing those marriages to stand "has burdensome regulatory implacations and irreparable consequences for the state of Utah."
The ACLU of Utah, representing the plaintiffs in this case, argue in response that the marriages were not an attempt at an end-run around the law, but rather the full exercise of the law as determined by the federal district court and later upheld by the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals.
The brief, filed late today, argued that the plaintiffs in this case are not parties to the Kitchen v. Herbert lawsuit, the case that resulted in the legalization of marriage for same-sex couples during that 17 day window. It goes on, "They are members of the public who acted in accordance with a binding federal decree, who followed the law as it currently existed, and who were fully recognized by Utah as married. Their marriages are entitled to at least the same legal protection as provided to ordinary commercial transactions."
The ACLU further argues that "In seeking to nullify marriages that were legal at the time they were solemnized, Defendants seek to do something that is unprecedented in our nation's history. The Fourteenth Amendment protects the "existing marital relationship of all legally married couples whether or not the state was constitutionally obligated to permit those couples to marry in the first instance."
The Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, who upheld the decision of United States District Judge Kimball, imposed a stay on their own order that is set to expire on Monday, July 21. If the Supreme Court rejects the stay request, Utah will be obligated to provide full recognition of the estimated 1,300 marriages that were legally solemnized between December and January.

The Story of Wat Tyler's Rebellion is but little known, but the hero of this story passes through that perilous time and takes part in the civil war in Flanders which followed soon after. Although young he is thrown into many exciting and dangerous adventures, through which he passes with great coolness and much credit. Brought into royal favor he is knighted for bravery on the battlefield, and saving the lives of some wealthy merchants, he realizes fortune with his advancement and rank. New light is thrown on the history of this time and the whole story is singularly interesting.


If you wanted to know about this wide angle lens, here's my Fuji 10-24mm review. All images shot on an XT1.
To first start the review, I must say something, I'm probably positively biased because I am a big fan of wide angles. Besides landscape uses I find that most tend to shy away from ultra wides, and it's understandable…..super wides are the kind of lenses that needs a bit of wrestling with. But that's why I like them so much, I think it's this focal length ranges biggest asset: it forces the user to be creative, to work the scene.
This is a large lens, DSLR size territory. It's without a doubt a beautiful piece of glass that is on the not too heavy side and just scream premium. It fits the camera nicely but you can forget about the portability, and the weight will probably prevent you from doing too much hand gymnastics like twisting and turning for odd angles in the streets. Better have a flip screen for this one!
Here it is on a XT1, a shot by Dan Nguyen, I can't show mine because my shots are on an SD card and my reader died, my SD card totting laptop's charger died and I don't have a cable to transfer the images out of my camera. Yeah. Moving on!
Normally my review policy is….most modern cameras and lenses are good enough, so I just leave it at that an move on, but I must say that with this lens, quite a few time upon viewing the images made me go DAYUM! multiple times. It's really stellar, even in the wide end. Below here are some full size samples for you to draw you own conclusions.
To tell you the truth I wanted to take some crazy glue and glue the lens on the camera! Since I like wide angles, I mostly shot everything in the super-wide spectrum of things because it's where I found the most creativity.
Say you want to make a nice portrait, you can't get too close or the subject will start looking weird, you can't get too far because the subject will be too far, the joy of this lens then is to figure out the best way to make a photograph. As for the 35mm end of the lens, it's a tried and true, trusty focal length, a perfect balance between the 28mm and 50mm.
After using the same focal length for a while, it's easy to get in a rut, and this lens simply puts you out of your comfort zone in the wide end. But in only takes one nice shot for you to understand what is possible with the focal length….and once that first nice shot is out of the way, you are hooked.
Certain lenses have an emotional quality to them, and I personally believe that emotional quality trumps image quality. Trough this lens, the world seems grandiose, epic, you can almost hear an epic soundtrack in the back when shooting with it. The 28mm has that sense of epicness but it's much more tame, when you zoom out on this lens, it really takes things to another level.
It's almost like visual pure oxygen. It makes you go DANG! when you make a nice image. But above all I think this lens is FUN. I had another lens to review, the 35mm f2 and I must say that the wide angle is the one that I invariably used the most.
I tried street photography with it and it was a joy. The thing is, no one knows how wide your lens is, so you can stand really close to your subject and they would have no idea that you are shooting them.
Most of your subject, except if you come really close are going to be small in the frame because of the wide angle, but that's where the fun and creativity kicks in, finding ways to bring attention to your subject without making them the biggest thing in your frame.
One thing I usually do is to put leading lines like roads on the edges, especially at wide angles, since things start stretching there, it draws you into the frame.
I really enjoyed looking at the world in super wide, little street corners seem to stretch endlessly, the sky looks like it is about the burst open and heaven is coming down on earth. I found myself just looking at the screen just to see how things would look.
The fastest the lens can go is at f4, couple that with a super wide, it's pretty hard to miss your focus in the streets in my opinion. The downside is, when there is low light or when it's starting to get dark like it was for most of the time I was shooting, I had to put the camera at around 800.
Every time I found myself saying "This is too wide", I had to remind myself that this is a zoom and joyfully put it to the long end and end up getting a 35mm. it's really a nice piece of equipment to have especially in the streets where this whole range of focal lengths allows for nice possibilities.
The Fuji 10-24mm is an outstanding lens, it is fun and might even give you a jolt of creativity if you are in a rut. It is surprisingly sharp and allows from some truly epic images. Granted that it's going to help make great landscape images but I found that there is much joy to be had by using it everywhere else. It requires working the scene but the rewards are more than worth it. Even if the wide angle is too much, a quick turn of the zoom will give you a trusty 35mm focal length to work with. A highly recommended lens.
I felt in love with Fuji thanks to the X100T, now I'm considering this lens for travel… with the coming X-T2. I found everything I need to know, I'm sold!
Can't wait to take delivery of this lens. Your review has fully justified my purchase.
As a relatively satisfied user of 4/3rds & micro4/3rds format devices for the past decade, one nagging issue for me (as a lover of wide angles) was the ultra-wide options in that format. The three 7-14mm lenses available for 4/3 and m4/3 are all in high regard, as are the two 9-18 options. But the 7-14mm options can't take filters.
The Fuji 10-24 seems to have a similar high regard – but can take filters (for protection, as well as for what filters can do to light). For quite awhile I had been watching for the right price on a X-E? body, to figuratively glue to the back of the 10-24. Such a body just appeared, and just arrived. The 10-24 is on its way. In doing another search on the 10-24, your writeup appeared. This is a very nice time for me to be enjoying your writing, photos, and nuance about the lens. Many thanks for sharing your thoughts (and creativity)!
I expect that I'll stick with 4/3 and m4/3 for the foreseeable future, but for the XF10-24 lens and a body for it. But who knows? Will the Fuji user interface (shutter dial and aperture ring) get under my skin? I love the rangefinder format. Will a X-Pro? find itself on my doorstep some day?
Thanks so much Thomas! The one thing is, with an Xpro and this lens, you pretty much give up the portability you probably enjoy with the mu43, so it's a trade-off.
I was having exactly the same issue yesterday but turns out I've stumbled across the same page and here I am and the images have loaded. I didn't realize it was the same review until I read your post.
Olivier, thank you for the post. Can I ask you, with the black and white photos – were you using the b&w option in-camera, and if so, which one(s)?
Great review! I didn't think too much, just went and bought the XT20 and this 10-24mm lens, it's just perfect! Thank you so much for being honest!
