Q: Force text with  Tag to same height in table as another cell without  Tag I have a table with 2 cells, in one cell I have a , that cell will be moved downwards (see fiddle). How can I force both cells to be aligned?
Same goes with , then the whole text-cell is moved upwards. That looks strange, I would imagine to have all text in the same height, independent of sup and sub Tags.

    Some sub text sub
    Some Text
    Some Text with sup 123

A: That is because the browser's native styling for sup is:
sup {
    vertical-align: super;
    font-size: smaller;
}

...which in turn influences the height of the cell. You can simply use other means of vertical aligment without affecting the cell height, such as positioning the  element relatively:

sup {
  vertical-align: middle;
  position: relative;
  top: -.35em;
}

  Some Text
  Some Text with sup 123

A: You can consider empty pseudo element where you define the behavior of sup and sub to make sure it behave the same:

td::before {
 content:"";
 vertical-align:sub;
}
td::after {
 content:"";
 vertical-align:super;
}

Пол Донэл Харкинс (, 15 мая 1904, Бостон, Массачусетс — 21 августа 1984, Даллас, Техас) — американский военный деятель, генерал (1962), командующий американскими силами в Южном Вьетнаме на раннем этапе Вьетнамской войны.

Протеже Паттона, служил на штабных должностях в соединениях, которыми он командовал (вплоть до должности заместителя начальника штаба армии). Участвовал в разработке высадок в Северной Африке и Италии, Арденнской операции. После войны — на штабных должностях в армии США, войсках НАТО в Европе. Участник войны в Корее.

В феврале 1962 года возглавил Командование по оказанию военной помощи Вьетнаму. Не смог достичь военных успехов, настроил против себя американскую прессу. В июле 1964 года сменён в должности генералом Уэстморлендом.

Ранние годы. Во время войны

Пол Харкинс родился в Бостоне в семье газетного редактора. В 1922 году зачислен в 110-й кавалерийский полк Национальной гвардии штата Массачусетс. Во время прохождения службы в нацгвардии сдал вступительные экзамены в военную академию Вест-Пойнт, куда и был зачислен в 1925 году.

После окончания академии в 1929 году распределён в 7-й кавалерийский полк на военную базу Форт-Блисс. С 1933 года – кавалерийский инструктор в лагере Форт-Райли, в 1939 году принял командование ротой F 3-го кавалерийского полка (в тот период полком командовал Джордж Паттон). В 1941 году окончил штабной колледж армии США.

Вступление США в войну в декабре 1941 года застало Пола Харкинса в 1-й кавалерийской бригаде – вновь на базе Форт-Блисс. В январе 1942 года он был переведён во 2-ю танковую дивизию, которой также командовал Паттон. С августа 1942 года Харкинс – замначальника штаба Западной группы войск под командованием Дж. Паттона, созданной для участия в операции «Факел». 8 ноября 1942 года Пол Харкинс лично высадился на алжирский берег в местечке Федхала.

В годы Второй мировой войны карьера Харкинса благодаря его связи с Дж. Паттоном пошла на взлёт. С 1943 года Харкинс — заместитель начальника штаба 7-й армии Паттона. В этом качестве Харкинс участвовал в разработке высадки на Сицилию (июль 1943 года). После того, как Паттон принял командование 3-й армией, Харкинс перешёл за ним в той же должности. Старательно выполнял указания Паттона о постоянном перемещении войск; такую необходимость обосновывал тем, что это помогает поддерживать боевой дух войск. Участвовал в разработке контрнаступательной операции в Арденнах.

В 1945 году вслед за Паттоном Пол Харкинс перевёлся в 15-ю армию, размещённую в оккупированной союзниками Баварии. Репутация Харкинса как конфидента Паттона была столь высока, что после гибели генерала в декабре 1945 года Харкинс сопровождал его вдову в Соединённые Штаты.

Послевоенная карьера
В 1946 году полковник Харкинс назначен заместителем начальника классов в военной академии в Вест-Пойнте, позже сам занял вышестоящую должность. В апреле 1951 года кадет доложил Харкинсу, что группа учащихся (в большинстве своём игроки футбольной команды) организованно занимается списыванием. Харкинс приказал кадетам собрать информацию о нарушителях. По итогам расследования из академии было исключено 90 учащихся, среди них – те, кто знал, но не доложил о списывании.

В том же году Пол Харкинс вернулся на штабную работу, возглавив отдел планирования в управлении оперативной работы и боевой подготовки (управление G-3) штаба армии США. В 1952 году произведён в бригадные генералы. С апреля 1953 года – начальник штаба 8-й армии в Корее в звании генерал-майора. В декабре 1953 года Харкинс принял командование 45-й пехотной дивизией; после отправки её в США командовал 24-й пехотной дивизией.

В 1954—1956 годах генерал-майор Харкинс вновь работал в управлении G-3 штаба армии,  на этот раз в отделе международных сношений – в качестве руководителя групп оказания военной помощи. В данный период времени такие группы действовали в 42 государствах мира. С июля 1956 года — заместитель начальника управления.

С 1957 года Пол Харкинс – генерал-лейтенант, командующий объединёнными сухопутными силами НАТО в Юго-Восточной Европе (со штаб-квартирой в Измире). Во время пребывания в должности уделял внимание модернизации систем связи НАТО, урегулированию между Турцией и Грецией. В 1960—1962 годах — заместитель командующего сухопутными силами США на Тихом океане. В апреле 1961 года Харкинс командовал объединённым отрядом, предназначенным для размещения в Лаосе, однако, не успев прибыть к месту назначения, тот был расформирован на Филиппинах.

Служба во Вьетнаме
В феврале 1962 года Харкинс в звании четырёхзвёздного генерала возглавил Командование по оказанию военной помощи Вьетнаму (КОВПВ, ). США наращивали своё военное присутствие в регионе – к июню 1964 года, когда Харкинс покинул Вьетнам, там находилось до 16 000 американских солдат.

Генерал Харкинс, по оценке американского военного историка Марка Мойяра, не был ни «одарённым», ни «изобретательным» полководцем, однако обладал качествами «отличного организатора», хорошо умел мотивировать, чего, по мнению Мойяра, и требовала тогдашняя ситуация во Вьетнаме. Харкинс жил в Сайгоне в весьма скромных условиях, свой день проводил в полётах по стране с целью получить информацию об обстановке на местах.

Со временем отношение прессы к деятельности генерала менялось. Назначение Харкинса было позитивно оценено журналом «Тайм», который в своём номере от 11 мая 1962 года поместил Харкинса на обложку, а также дал ему характеристику «солдат до мозга костей». В дальнейшем журналисты неоднократно критиковали его за подачу недостоверной информации, преувеличивающей успехи американских и южновьетнамских сил. Репутация П. Харкинса в глазах прессы была окончательно подорвана после сражения при Апбак, сведения о котором, исходящие от штаба КОВПВ, журналисты сочли явно недостоверными.

Сдав командование в июле 1964 года генералу Уэстморленду, приветствовал его стихами Киплинга, что было встречено Уэстморлендом с недоумением, поскольку он ожидал от Харкинса однозначной оценки оперативной обстановки.

В отставке
Проживал с женой в Далласе. Увлекался рисованием, много времени уделял изучению научной литературы. В 1969 году под авторством Харкинса вышла книга «Когда Третья гремела в Европе: История замечательной армии Паттона» (When the Third Cracked Europe: The Story of Patton's Incredible Army). Был техническим консультантом фильма «Паттон» (1970).

Скончался в Далласе в 1984 году. Похоронен на кладбище Уэст-Пойнт.

Q: How to improve performance of downloading large size azure blob file over a stream? I have JSON blob file of size around 212 MB.
On Local while debugging it is taking around 15 minutes to download.
When i deploy code to Azure app service it runs for 10 minutes and fails with error : (locally it fails intermittently with same error)

Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of
  Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature

Code Attempt 1:
// Create SAS Token for referencing a file for a duration of 5 min
SharedAccessBlobPolicy sasConstraints = new SharedAccessBlobPolicy
{
    SharedAccessExpiryTime = DateTime.UtcNow.AddMinutes(15),
    Permissions = SharedAccessBlobPermissions.Read
};

var blob = cloudBlobContainer.GetBlockBlobReference(blobFilePath);
string sasContainerToken = blob.GetSharedAccessSignature(sasConstraints);

var cloudBlockBlob = new CloudBlockBlob(new Uri(blob.Uri + sasContainerToken));

using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
     await cloudBlockBlob.DownloadToStreamAsync(stream);
    //resetting stream's position to 0

    stream.Position = 0;
    var serializer = new JsonSerializer();

    using (var sr = new StreamReader(stream))
    {
        using (var jsonTextReader = new JsonTextReader(sr))
        {
            jsonTextReader.SupportMultipleContent = true;
            result = new List<T>();
            while (jsonTextReader.Read())
            {
                result.Add(serializer.Deserialize<T>(jsonTextReader));
            }
        }
    }
}

Code Attempt 2: I have tried using DownloadRangeToStreamAsync for downloading a blob in chunk but nothing changed :
int bufferLength = 1 * 1024 * 1024;//1 MB chunk
long blobRemainingLength = blob.Properties.Length;
Queue<KeyValuePair<long, long>> queues = new Queue<KeyValuePair<long, long>>();
long offset = 0;
do
{
    long chunkLength = (long)Math.Min(bufferLength, blobRemainingLength);

    offset += chunkLength;
    blobRemainingLength -= chunkLength;
    using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
    {
        await blob.DownloadRangeToStreamAsync(ms, offset, chunkLength);
        ms.Position = 0;
        lock (outPutStream)
        {
            outPutStream.Position = offset;
            var bytes = ms.ToArray();
            outPutStream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
        }
    }
}
while (blobRemainingLength > 0);

I think 212 MB data is not a large JSON file. Can you please suggest a
solution ?

A: I suggest you can give it a try by using Azure Storage Data Movement Library.
I tested with a larger file of 220MB size, it takes about 5 minutes to download it into memory.
The sample code:
        SharedAccessBlobPolicy sasConstraints = new SharedAccessBlobPolicy
        {
            SharedAccessExpiryTime = DateTime.UtcNow.AddMinutes(15),
            Permissions = SharedAccessBlobPermissions.Read
        };

        CloudBlockBlob blob = blobContainer.GetBlockBlobReference("t100.txt");
        string sasContainerToken = blob.GetSharedAccessSignature(sasConstraints);
        var cloudBlockBlob = new CloudBlockBlob(new Uri(blob.Uri + sasContainerToken));

        var stream = new MemoryStream();

        //set this value as per your need
        TransferManager.Configurations.ParallelOperations = 5;

        Console.WriteLine("begin to download...");

        //use Stopwatch to calculate the time
        Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch();
        stopwatch.Start();

        DownloadOptions options = new DownloadOptions();
        options.DisableContentMD5Validation = true;

        //use these lines of code just for checking the downloading progress, you can remove it in your code.
        SingleTransferContext context = new SingleTransferContext();
        context.ProgressHandler = new Progress<TransferStatus>((progress) =>
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Bytes downloaded: {0}", progress.BytesTransferred);
        });

        var task = TransferManager.DownloadAsync(cloudBlockBlob, stream,options,context);
        task.Wait();

        stopwatch.Stop();
        Console.WriteLine("the length of the stream is: "+stream.Length);
        Console.WriteLine("the time is taken: "+stopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds);

The test result:

Economic forecasting Act. 24 Feb 2020
BBVA Research publishes its first quarter U.S. Economic Outlook
Lori Moore
The BBVA Research team has published its Economic Outlook for first quarter 2020, offering a look at a number of timely events and their anticipated economic impact.
The report provides a high level overview of the risks and rewards created by the digitization of the global economy, noting both expanding connectivity and higher vulnerability to potential cyberattacks. The outlook notes that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell recently indicated that one of the main risks to the financial system is cyberattacks. According to Cybersecurity Ventures, damages from cybercrime could reach $6 trillion by 2021, significantly higher than other major crimes like drug trafficking, pilferage and maritime piracy.
The quarterly outlook also delves into the potential impact of the Coronavirus and Boeing's groundings, both creating headwinds for the longest expansion in U.S. history. In addition, the report notes that financial volatility could remain elevated during the U.S. election cycle and will likely ebb and flow with election polling data.
In addition, the quarterly outlook contains a comprehensive view of the U.S. housing market, performance assessments by industry, and a detailed analysis of the impact of presidential tweets on the economy.
Led by Nathaniel Karp, BBVA USA's research team analyzes the U.S. economy and Federal Reserve monetary policy. For its analyses, the economists create models and forecasts for growth, inflation, monetary policy and industries. The Economic Research team also follows a variety of issues that affect the Sunbelt states where BBVA USA operates. Follow their work on Twitter @BBVAResearch and @BBVANews_USA.

Choosing a new hardwood floor is a great way to add value to your home. We offer a variety of hardwood options, including styles from Baroque.
Laminate looks like real hardwood, but it has a durable top layer that will resist most scratches and scuffs.
Nowadays, many homeowners opt for luxury vinyl flooring because, although it offers natural looks, it can withstand moisture. We especially love COREtec Plus.
Tile flooring is great for kitchens and bathrooms because it resists moisture and heat. Ceramic and porcelain are the two most popular tile options in homes.


With the recent boycott of the leaders from Germany, Austria, Italy, Slovenia and the Czech Republic on the upcoming summit in Ukraine, the United States expressed deep concern of former Ukrainian's Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko's maltreatment and other imprisoned members of her former government.
US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says the photographs of Mrs. Tymoshenko released by the Ukrainian Human Rights Ombudsman further call into question the conditions of her confinement.
Ms. Clinton urges urgent medical assistance in an appropriate facility and request that the U.S. Ambassador be given access to her.
Former Ukrainian's Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.
"We continue to call for her release, the release of other members of her former government and the restoration of their full civil and political rights.
Reports say Mr. Tymoshenko claimed she was struck in the stomach when she was taken from her prison cell in Kharkiv, Ukraine, to visit a medical clinic against her will on 20th of April 20.
However, the current Ukrainian administration reasoned out that Mrs. Tymoshenko was not punched and said she may have "bumped into blunt objects" as she was taken to the clinic where reportedly she refused treatment.
Mrs. Tymoshenko went on a hunger strike to draw attention to "violence and lack of rights" in her country.
In October 2011, a Ukrainian court ruled Mrs. Tymoshenko guilty of abuse of authority for signing overpriced gas contracts with Russia. The Court sentenced her to the seven-year prison term.
Reports say the deals caused damages to the country amounting to almost $190 million. The court ordered Mrs. Tymoshenko to repay the money.
The former Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Tymoshenko has been charged with violations worth USD 20 million.
The charges against Yulia Tymoshenko include embezzlement of state funds in excess of UAH 14 million (equivalent of USD 7 million at the time – ed.), VAT evasion in the amount of UAH 4.7 million (USD 2.3 million), attempted embezzlement of UAH 11 million (USD 5.5 million) in VAT reimbursement, forgery and tax evasion for not paying UAH 681 thousand in personal income tax.
Mrs. Tymoshenko was prime minister from January to September 2005 and December 2007 to March 2010.

On A/B testing Facebook Ad campaigns, you should follow this principle - the more you test, the better.
In terms of Age (and Gender), a big misconception a lot of people have is that they MUST define their audience by these parameters.
One of the biggest challenges with split testing Facebook ads is that Facebook determines very early on in your advertising which of your ads is performing the best.

Faculty perspectives of the undergraduate chemistry laboratory were investigated using a mixed methods study to articulate the goals, strategies, and assessments used in undergraduate teaching laboratories. Interviews were conducted with 22 faculty engaged in teaching or supervising undergraduate laboratories from different types of institutions, chemistry disciplines, and course levels. Faculty goals for general chemistry, organic chemistry, and upper division laboratories were elucidated and compared across courses and institutional types. Additional comparisons were made between faculty who had received grants to implement changes in laboratory and those who had not. Based upon the results of the interviews and analysis, a survey of faculty goals for undergraduate laboratory was created and distributed in the U.S. to over 1800 faculty, with slightly over 300 faculty responding. Results from the survey, with comparisons across courses, institutional types, and funding will be presented.

Ezekiel 47:5 After this he measured a thousande agayne, then was it soch a ryuer, that I myght not wade thorowe it. The water was so depe, that it was nedeful to haue swimmed, for it might not be waded ouer.

Welcome — J.W. Kelly & Co.
J.W. Kelly was a storyteller and pioneer of famed bourbons and whiskeys. His journey from Ireland to the United States over a century ago exposed him to the world's most renowned spirits. Inspired by his travels, he crafted the blueprint for his whiskey revolution.
James Watt Kelly's infamous whiskey has been reborn! After his long journey from Ireland in 1863, Kelly created the best American whiskey of his era. The winning blueprint revived one of his most prized bourbons, over a century later. Kelly's use of old-world pot distillation and custom mixture of corn, malted rye, and barley helped create Old Milford's unique blend of five, six and eight-year-old barrels. The spirit is now reawakened for the entire world to discover.
The spirit of J.W. Kelly's original bourbon is captured in our Old Milford Straight Bourbon Whiskey. We hand-select barrels of bourbon that have been aging at least five years. Our selections are distilled in 3,000-gallon pot stills to enrich the bold characteristics unique to Old Milford.
Old Milford touts spicy flavors and notes of oak, white pepper, vanilla and English toffee. Enjoy it neat, with a few drops of water or in a Manhattan. Either way you choose, Old Milford will be your go-to spirit for important milestones or any night of the week.

Hear Joe Perry and Steven Tyler's 'Bikini Bottom Boogie' From 'SpongeBob SquarePants: The Musical'
Ben A. Pruchnie, Getty Images
After ruling the airwaves and conquering the big screen, animated superstar SpongeBob SquarePants is heading to the stage — and bringing a couple of Aerosmith members with him.
SpongeBob SquarePants: The Musical is due to make its Broadway bow on Nov. 6 at the Palace Theater in New York City, and in advance of the stage show's debut, its original soundtrack recording has made its way online via NPR's First Look series. The track listing, which you can stream at NPR, contains contributions from a varied assortment of artists — including Aerosmith's Joe Perry and Steven Tyler, who can be heard on the song "Bikini Bottom Boogie."
For the soundtrack, SpongeBob stage producer Tina Landau envisioned a collection that embraced the musical's themes of community and diversity, and set out to achieve that by recruiting an eclectic array of acts.
In addition to Perry and Tyler, the album includes music from artists running the gamut from pop and alternative veterans like Cyndi Lauper and They Might Be Giants to younger stars such as Panic! At the Disco.
"Our musical is about community — and the diverse, colorful individuals who come to cherish and fight for it," explained Landau in a press release. "So this album represents a diverse community of songwriters, each singular in his or her own writing voice — yet all a part of the kooky, kaleidoscopic world we call Bikini Bottom."
SpongeBob SquarePants: The Musical is scheduled to arrive in stores Sept. 22, and will be available on CD and digital formats as well as limited-edition vinyl. For more information about the show or to purchase tickets, visit the musical's official site.

\section{Introduction}
\label{intro}
The accurate determination of the transition probability of transitions in heavy
alkali earth systems is an important step in the research program to measure Atomic Parity Violation
(APV) in such systems \cite{Portela,Wansbeek3,Willmann,Portela2,Sahoo1,Sahoo2,Sahoo3,Geetha,Roberts}. In the research reported here,
a single trapped  Ba$^+$ ion has been investigated and the  lifetime of its 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state has been measured.
This provides essential input for testing atomic structure and, in particular, the atomic wavefunctions of the involved states
at percent level accuracy. Such  measurements are highly sensitive to variations of parameters that determine the experiment's
performance during long periods (i.e. several hours) and which may cause systematic uncertainties. In particular, such effects
may arise from  interactions of the ion with background gas.

There are two main reasons for choosing single trapped Ba$^+$ ion in UHV to perform precise lifetime measurements.
Firstly, Barium~(Ba) is a heavy alkaline earth metal. The Ba$^+$ ion has a rather simple electronic configuration. Precise
measurements provide for accurate tests of the atomic wavefunctions. Secondly, systematic errors
due to collisions with other particles (such as different species) are highly suppressed.

The lifetime of the metastable 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state in Ba$^+$ has been measured earlier in different experiments
\cite{Nagourney,Madej,Plumelle,Royen,Gurell,Auchter,Yu}. Calculations are presently performed by different independent theory groups
\cite{Sahoo1,Sahoo2,Sahoo4,Dzuba,Iskrenova,Guet,Guet1}. All the measurements to date as well as calculated values for the lifetime of
5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state in Ba$^+$ have been compiled in Table 1.
\begin{table}[h]

\section{Experimental setup}
\label{sec:1}
The trap for Ba$^+$ in this experiment is a hyperbolic Paul trap \cite{Paul}. It consists of a ring electrode and two end caps
made of copper. The electrodes are mounted on a Macor holder. The chosen geometry results in a harmonic pseudopotential at the
center of the trap when AC voltages are applied between the ring and the two endcaps. The latter are grounded. The operating RF
frequency for the trap is $\Omega_{RF}$ = 5.44~MHz.
The trap with its Macor holder is mounted on Oxygen Free High Conductivity (OFHC) copper base plate. In order to trap ions,
there is a Ba oven (0.9 mm diameter $\times$ 40 mm length resistively heated stainless steel tube) which contains a mixture of
BaCO$_{3}$ and Zr. This oven produces a flux of order of $10^6$ thermal Ba atoms/s.
\begin{figure}[h]
 \begin{minipage}[t]{0.50\linewidth}

  \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{fig2}
 \caption{Level scheme of Ba$^+$ ion. The lowest $^2$S$_{1/2}$, $^2$P$_{1/2}$ and $^2$D$_{3/2}$ electronic
 states form a closed three level system. }
 \label{fig:minipage2}
 \end{minipage}
\end{figure}
 A laser at wavelength 413~nm is used to produce Ba$^+$ ions in the trap by
 two-photon photoionisation. We use laser light at $\lambda_{1} = 493$~nm (frequency doubled from a Coherent MBR-110 Ti:Sa
 laser) for driving the 6s$^2$S$_{1/2}$-6p$^2$P$_{1/2}$ cooling transition and laser light at  $\lambda_{2} = 649$~nm (produced from
 Coherent CR-699 ring dye laser) for the 6p$^2$P$_{1/2}$-5d$^2$D$_{3/2}$
 repump transition (see Fig. 2). In the experiments reported here, the power of $\lambda_{1}$ is between 6~\textmu{}W and 50~\textmu{}W
 and that of $\lambda_{2}$ is between 6~\textmu{}W and 45~\textmu{}W. The Gaussian radius of the laser beams is about 60~\textmu{}m
 at the position of the ion for all the measurements. Fluorescence from the 6s$^2$S$_{1/2}$-6p$^2$P$_{1/2}$ transition
 in the Ba$^+$ ion is detected with a photomultiplier tube (PMT) and an EMCCD camera. Fig. 1 shows our hyperbolic
 Paul trap together with the image of ions that are trapped and localized at the potential minimum of the trap.
\vspace*{-0.50cm}
 \section{Electron shelving technique}
\label{sec:2}
Ba$^+$ ions have a closed three-level system. One of the excited states, the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$
state, is long-lived (see Fig. 2). Simultaneous laser radiation at $\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{2}$ is therefore needed
to cool the ion in the center of the trap. When the ion is exposed to the light of two laser beams at wavelengths
$\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{2}$ (see Fig. 2), there is a closed cycle of 6s$^2$S$_{1/2}$-6p$^2$P$_{1/2}$-5d$^2$D$_{3/2}$
transitions. Observing the fluorescence from the 6p$^2$P$_{1/2}$-6s$^2$S$_{1/2}$ transition implies that the ion is ``not shelved''
in the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state. The electron shelving technique is employed in our experiment to determine the lifetime
of the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state. With an additional fiber-coupled high power LED (M455F1) at $\lambda_{3} = 455$~nm wavelength the
ion can be ``shelved'' to the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state via excitation to the 6p$^2$P$_{3/2}$ state and this
state's subsequent decay. The direct observation of ``quantum jumps'' in a single Ba$^+$ ion between the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$
and 6s$^2$S$_{1/2}$ states has been first demonstrated by Nagourney et al. \cite{Nagourney}.
The decay of the 6p$^2$P$_{3/2}$ state is the start of a shelving period which ends with a quantum jump from the
5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state to 6s$^2$S$_{1/2}$ state. Fig.~3 displays the highest PMT count rate (2200cnts/s) when the ion is not
shelved and the lowest count rate (600cnts/s) as background when it is shelved to the metastable 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state.
The ``on/off'' and ``off/on'' transitions in the fluorescence signal corresponds to the start and end of one single interval, when the
ion was in the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state.
\begin{figure}[h]
  \centering
  \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{fig3}
 \caption{Quantum Jumps observed in single Ba$^+$ ion. Left : PMT count rate as a function of time.
 Right: EMCCD image of the ion in the unshelved state(top) and shelved state(bottom).}
  \end{figure}
  \vspace*{-0.50cm}
\section{Measurements}
\label{sec:3}
In order to measure the lifetime $\tau_{D_{5/2}}$, a total of 5046 individual shelved periods
have been recorded in 71 data samples and analysed. They were taken under in part significantly different conditions to
enable observing and correcting for systematic errors \cite{Portela3}. Fig.~4 represents one example of the analysed
samples. It shows an exponential decay. Such a decay function is fitted to each data set using a binned
log-likelihood method. The lifetime $\tau_{D_{5/2}}$ is obtained for each data sample from the corresponding fit parameters.
We note that experimental situations can be created where ion heating results in longer measured durations of
individual dark periods than the actual dwell time of the ion in the D$_{5/2}$ state. This can be seen in the slow
recovery of the fluorescence light.
\begin{figure}[h]
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.48\linewidth}
 \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{fig4}
\caption{One sample of the lifetime measurements in single Ba$^+$ ion with 96 shelved periods.}
\label{fig:minipage3}
\end{minipage}
\quad
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.49\linewidth}
 \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{fig5}
\caption{Lifetime of the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state versus residual gas pressure in a single Ba$^+$ ion.
68$\%$ and 95$\%$ confidence intervals are given.}
\label{fig:minipage4}
\end{minipage}
\end{figure}
Collisions with background gas can reduce the lifetime of the metastable state.
In order to extrapolate the absolute value for the lifetime to zero pressure, the
lifetime $\tau_{D_{5/2}}$ was measured at different background pressures. Fig.~5 displays
the results for a selection of 1600 out of 5046 shelved periods. The uncertainty for the lifetime in
each value corresponds to the statistical error from fitting an exponential decay
to the data. A range of pressures between $2.5 \times 10^{-10}$ and $8.7 \times 10^{-10}$ mbar was
explored by changing the temperature of the vacuum chamber in the range from 289
K to 296 K and by adjusting the pumping speed of the ion pump. For the small
change in temperature needed here, changes in the collision cross-sections between the ion and
the residual gas atoms can be neglected. A linear function is fitted to the data.
The lifetime of the  5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state is found to be $\tau_{D_{5/2}} = 26.4(1.7)$~s.
3446 shelved periods are used to check for systematics, such as potentially arising from laser intensities,
laser frequency detunings, rf voltages for trap and effects from the operating conditions of the ion pump.
No significant effects have been observed.

\section{Conclusions}
\label{sec:4}
In summary, the lifetime of the metastable 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ has been measured for a single Ba$^+$ ion.
The measured value is preliminary because cross checks for systematics are still ongoing.
Our result agrees within 2$\sigma$ with the most recent theoretical value $\tau_{D_{5/2}} = 29.8(3)$~s \cite{Sahoo2}
and with the latest independent experimental value of $\tau_{D_{5/2}} = 31.2(9)$~s \cite{Auchter}. Fig.~6 displays the time
evolution of the measurements and the theory values for the lifetime of the 5d$^2$D$_{5/2}$ state in a Ba$^+$ ion.

New Year New Job - Gemma Cooper tells us about doing PR for Total War firm Creative Assembly
January 5th, 2018 - 02:26pm
Associate PR manager Gemma Cooper takes us behind the scenes of working on the Total War brand at Creative Assembly.
What is your job? What does it involve?
I'm the associate PR manager for Creative Assembly. I work within the Total War team, communicating to members of the press and public about our titles, making sure they get the right information at the right time and generally building up excitement among our fans. At Creative Assembly, this involves working across several titles and to balance these, timing is everything.
What are your main responsibilities?
On a daily basis I work with our PR manager and brand managers, compiling press reports for the studio and supporting the implementation of our PR plans. I ensure that all our announcement and press assets are organised and delivered correctly and timely. My role can also involve attending consumer gaming events and managing press events, being a key person for establishing relationships with our industry partners.
How did you get your job?
My degree is in Geography, so I expected it to be a real challenge to break into the gaming industry. However, as I had managed many competitive gaming events for a number of years before I graduated, I had already met a lot of people in the industry and had gathered some relevant experience. As a result, I then did a placement year at Warner Bros as a marketing and PR executive, which solidified the skills I had developed at gaming conventions and enhanced them with some real industry knowledge.
When I returned to University, I continued to work, working remotely as a PR executive for Swipe Right PR thanks to the connections I had made. I think this was really helpful as I kept up my presence in the industry and my skills while also studying. Once I graduated in 2017 I applied for Creative Assembly via the studio's website and haven't looked back!
What special skills or qualifications did you need?
To work in PR I'd say you need to be a people person. You have to be organised and have a good attention to detail. A good knowledge of the gaming industry helps, especially when networking at various events throughout the year. Working to a schedule and a deadline is also something you should get used to, as game announces need to happen to very tight timescales with no room for error.
What new skills have you had to learn for this role?
I've become even more knowledgeable about the wider industry and kept up with trends in the gaming world. It's really important that the PR team have a regular and solid flow of information with the rest of the marketing team and the dev team, so it's been crucial to be relatively open and constantly communicating about plans.
Describe a normal day. What do you do?
No day is similar for me, especially since I work across a number of titles for Total War. I can be hopping across each title on a day to day basis, sometimes organising assets for a game launch and other days creating a schedule for a press event. One of the great things about working at Creative Assembly is the variety that's on offer.
What are the best and worst parts of your role?
I love talking to our extremely passionate fan base at gaming events and sharing our in-game stories together. Having played Total War since I was young, it's fantastic to be with a similar group of people who adore the games that we're creating. There is nothing I would describe as the 'worst' part of my role, but the most difficult would probably be the sheer amount of work that is required at launch – but the reward once everything is wrapped up is totally worth it.
What tips would you give to someone applying for a similar position?
Love your product. It's important to be passionate about the games you're pitching, and enthusiasm shows in a PR role – especially when you're attending consumer events and talking to fans. Make sure you make the right connections and start networking as soon as you can.

Meet The Prophet Who Was Eaten By Lions After Testing God
By FutureSA (self media writer) | 4 months ago
Back in Ibadan, an occurrence occurred in the University of Ibadan Zoological Garden that many people would never forget. In the year 1991, a large number of visitors traveled to the Zoo to witness the live animals. They usually visited the zoo to see the zoo's real-life lion, who lived there. Everyone went there with no other intention than to observe the Lions from a distance.
On the faithful day, a man designated as Prophet Daniel Abodunrin was also present in the zoo; however, he was there for a very different reason. He came to the zoo to demonstrate God's miracle with David in the Lion's Den. His aim was to stroll into the Lions' cage at the zoo and play with them without getting wounded, much like the legendary Daniel.
If you recall from the Bible, Daniel was thrown into the Lions' den, but he escaped alive and undamaged after God tamed and calmed the Lions. This was exactly what Prophet Daniel wanted to demonstrate to everyone that day.
Prophet Daniel approached a zoo employee and requested that the lion's cage be opened so that he may enter. The Prophet's staff protested since it was a foolish concept, yet he did not give up. Some claimed he continued to annoy them until they approved his request, while others claimed he slipped himself into the Lions' cage.
People came to watch this prophet perform his miracle as he walked inside the Lions' cage. The Prophet donned a scarlet robe and held his Bible, and he began reciting various Bible verses and speaking in tongues. He kept calling on Daniel's God to come and accomplish the miracle, and he kept calling on Jehovah in the Lion's Den.
The Lions initially moved to a corner of their cage, but the Prophet assumed his prayers and faith were at work. He stepped closer to the Lions, and in the blink of an eye, the Lions attacked him while the crowd looked on. The Prophet struggled for his life, but he was unable to tackle the Lions, he was torn apart and eaten by the Lions. That is how the Prophet died, and his remains were later interred.
Many people thought the Prophet made a mistake by challenging God, while others thought the Lions were possessed. Even now, the people who witnessed the tragic sight recall the sorrowful incident.
