Kanghwado (, doslova ostrov Kanghwa) je ostrov ve Žlutém moři u západního pobřeží Jižní Korey. Ze správního hlediska je součástí Inčchonu, třetího největšího města státu a významného přístavu. Na ostrově žije přibližně 65 tisíc lidí na ploše přibližně 302 kilometrů čtverečních.

Ostrov leží v ústí řeky Hangang u hranice mezi Jižní a Severní Koreou – na severovýchodě je průlivem oddělen od severokorejské provincie Severní Hwanghe, na východě jej od jihokorejské provincie Kjonggi odděluje jen 400-1200 metrů široký kanál s dvěma mosty.

Na ostrově jsou dolmeny, které jsou v rámci souboru Dolmeny v Kočchangu, Haosunu a Kanghwa zapsány na seznam Světového dědictví UNESCO.

Geschichte

Name

Die H.-H.-Meier-Allee wurde benannt nach dem Kaufmann, Politiker und Mitgründer des Norddeutschen Lloyds (NDL) Hermann Henrich Meier (1809–1898).

Der NDL wurde 1857 gegründet von Meier (1809–1898) und Eduard Crüsemann (1826–1869) als ersten Direktor der Bremer Reederei sowie von Gustav Kulenkampff (1811–1878). Meier war zudem von 1881 bis 1887 Mitglied des Reichstags des Deutschen Reiches.

Entwicklung
Der Ortsteil Neu-Schwachhausen wurde in wesentlichen Teilen erst nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg in den 1960er Jahren bebaut, u. a. mit mehrgeschossigen Miethäusern, und hatte 2009 schließlich 5723 Einwohner. Der Ortsteil Riensberg war als Gutsbezirk Riensberg eine Gemarkung zwischen den Dörfern Schwachhausen und Horn; dieser Ortsteil hatte 6203 Einwohner im Jahr 2009.

Die damals dörfliche Straße stammt aus der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. In den 1960er Jahren wurde sie für den Ortsteil ausgebaut. Eine Verlängerung der Straße Richtung Universität und Horn als Horner Spange wurde nach Einsprüchen der Bürger um 2009 zunächst nicht weiter betrieben, findet sich aber im Gewerbeentwicklungsprogramm für 2030. Die Straße soll an das Fernwärmenetz angeschlossen werden, das seit 2021 ausgebaut wird.

Verkehr

1959 wurde die Strecke der Linie 16 von der Wachmannstraße bis Riensberg auf der H.-H.-Meier-Allee verlängert.
1967 erhielt die bisherige Linie 16 die Liniennummer 6 (Grolland ab 1976 Huchting – Wachmannstraße – Riensberg). Nach einer Neuordnung des Netzes führte die Linie 6 nun vom Flughafen nach Riensberg und nach einer Verlängerung 1998 zur Universität.

Die Straßenbahn Bremen durchfährt heute mit der Linie 6 (Universität – Flughafen) die Straße.

Im Nahverkehr in Bremen kreuzt die Buslinie 22 (Kattenturm-Mitte ↔ Universität) die Straße am Schwachhauser Ring.

2021 sollen täglich bis zu 7000 Radfahrer die Straße nutzen.

Gebäude und Anlagen

Die 1,2 Kilometer lange Straße, an der u. a. zahlreiche Platanenbäume stehen, ist überwiegend mit zwei- bis fünfgeschossigen Wohngebäuden bebaut aus der Zeit nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg in den 1960er bis 1980er Jahren.

"A longtime student of human potential movements, Mitch Horowitz narrates his latest book with the appealing confidence and clarity of a seasoned voice professional. His performance commands attention to his message even when he's offering a plethora of familiar prescriptions that, from someone else, would sound formulaic. A publishing executive, Horowitz is a genial yet powerful writer who has a knack for distilling ideas and offering suggestions that sound personal and achievable. The key to fulfillment, he says, is to clarify our deepest purpose and then translate it into concrete goals and actions that will actualize that purpose. It's familiar territory for fans of personal development, but the author's fresh writing and appealing power as a narrator will make it hard for listeners to gloss over." —AudioFile

UPDATE 30/10/2014 5.13pm: The PC port of Valkyria Chronicles will be released on 11th November on Steam for £14.99 / €19.99 / $19.99.
Pre-orders are 10 per cent off.
Additionally, the PC version of Valkyria Chronicles will include all the DLC from the PS3 version, such as Hard EX Mode, Edy's "Enter the Edy Detachment" mission, Selveria's "Behind Her Blue Flame" mission, and the six challenge missions Edy Detachment.
ORIGINAL STORY 28/10/2014 8.39am: Sega has teased a new PC release of the original Valkyria Chronicles.
The PlayStation 3 strategy RPG was originally released back in 2008 and earned itself both warm reviews and a loyal fanbase.
Two sequels followed, both for PSP, as well as a tie-in anime series and manga.
Valkyria Chronicles' PC version will be the first time the game has graced a non-PlayStation platform. When the new port will materialise is as yet unknown, however.
Writing on Twitter last night, Sega simply stated that more information would be announced "soon".
"[It's] a really, really, really good tactical RPG," Oli wrote in Eurogamer's Valkyria Chronicles review. "Fans of the genre should pick it up without delay, but beneath the inviting exterior and thoughtfully designed battle system lies a game with a few too many clunky inconsistencies which directly impact the strategic heart of the experience."

Larger O.D. than other similar products to hide any paint damage caused by OEM seal.
easy to sand and paint to match OEM color.
You have an E30, face the fact that your antenna doesn't go in and out anymore and looks like crap. Remove it, pop this in. KAs looks better than the others online too. Nice finish, better fit.
It doesn't get more simple than this. Just snap in and go. Help clean your cars appearance in seconds. Quick shipping as well.
This little cover was a perfect fit. It was a little snug pushing it into the hole but serves its purpose well. Been rained on a few times and it sealed nicely with the small bead of sealant and couldn't recommend this enough.
The plug fit in the hole perfectly and stopped water from leaking into my trunk.
Super easy to change out, looks killer.
Fit perfectly. Looks alot cleaner without the antenna on my e30. Highly recommended easy and cheap mod!!!!

Diving Australia's Most Famous Shipwreck: the SS Yongala
About 30 minutes off the coast of Townsville North Queensland lies the legendary wreck of the SS Yongala, a steamship that went down in 1911 with all passengers lost.
By Rebecca Strauss Travel Wrecks Apr 28, 2019
"Alright, let's go diving!"
Matt King, owner of Yongala Dive, is our captain today on the Ocean Magic. We've come to the coast of Townsville North Queensland to dive the wreck of the SS Yongala, and we can't wait.
To get here, we've traveled south about an hour from the Townsville airport to Ayr, a tiny town and the location of our hotel. Ayr is about 20 minutes from the dive shop in Alva Beach, and we head down to the shore from the shop for the 30-minute ride out to the site, excitement building. This isn't just any dive: the SS Yongala, which went down in 1911 during a cyclone with all 122 souls lost, is Australia's most famous wreck. Although Matt shares a bit about the wreck's history on the way out to the site, we can't wait to get in the water.
Diving the SS Yongala

The wreck's super structure is easily identifiable under layers of thriving coral and swarms of baitfish (Photo: Nadia Aly)
The SS Yongala attracts all manner of marine life, including hawksbill turtles, which are common on the wreck (Photo: Nadia Aly)

We gear up and giant stride off the boat, grabbing the tow line that will lead us to the mooring. There are mooring buoys just off the stern and bow of the wreck; we've moored at the bow. As we descend, the wreck comes into view despite the so-so visibility, and it's teeming with life.
The 361-foot (110 m) ship lies on its starboard side in about 92 feet (28 m) of water at the bottom and 46 feet (14 m) at the top. It's easy to circumnavigate, current permitting. Like an oasis in the desert, it's the only large structure for miles around, so it attracts all the big boys — Queensland grouper, Maori wrasse, turtles, schooling rays, giant trevally, and whale sharks in season. As we descend, we see the outline of the ship, laying at an angle on its starboard side. The exposed deck tilts up before us from the ocean floor to the left as we face the wreck from the bow and the upended hull beckons to the right. After a quick peek in the sand near the mooring line, where Matt's told us rays often lounge, the current today dictates that we stay mainly on the deck side.
Cyclone Yasi came through here in 2011 and wiped the century-old soft corals clean, but you'd never know it by looking at the wreck today. All manner of whip coral cover the wreck, and both hard and soft corals abound. A garden of soft purple coral, resembling stalks of kale, adorns the top-most point of the wreck. It looks almost as though it were planted there in a tidy row, along what would have been the ship's port side railing. Flitting in and out of the coral and exposed holds are a hungry hawksbill, giant trevally and grouper, Maori wrasse, small tropical fish and undulating olive sea snakes. "You must have your eyes closed if you don't see a sea snake on the wreck," Yongala Dive's skipper and dive instructor, Luke Trevitt, tells me when we return to the dive shop.
Although we're allowed to peer into the wreck's innards with our lights, we cannot penetrate: because the remains of the victims are still entombed inside, the site is protected as a maritime grave. Out of respect for the disaster's victims, no one is allowed to enter or even go underneath the overhangs.
It makes no difference, however, as we're overwhelmed by the sheer variety and volume of animals around. On our way up the mooring line for our safety stop, a giant school of barracuda materializes around us like a tornado and we all delay boarding the boat for just a little while.
I wonder why there's such diversity on the SS Yongala and to answer that, we've got to backtrack a little.
The history of the SS Yongala
The SS Yongala, a passenger and freight steamer launched in 1903, ran routes around Australia, including a round trip from Fremantle in Western Australia to Brisbane, as well as a Melbourne to Cairns trip. It was on one of the latter voyages that the ship encountered a fateful storm. On March 23, 1911, while on its 99th voyage, the SS Yongala began its final journey. After unloading some cargo in MacKay, Queensland, the ship was carrying 49 passengers, 73 crew members and a racehorse named Moonshine as it headed directly into a cyclone on the way to Townsville.
The local signal station received a telegram warning of the cyclone brewing between MacKay and Townsville, and subsequently sent both flag and wireless signals. The SS Yongala captain, however, did not see the flags and the boat did not have wireless equipment. At approximately 6:40 pm, five hours after leaving MacKay, the lighthouse keeper at Dent Island saw the ship sail into the Whitsunday Passage — the last confirmed sighting. At some point on March 24th, 1911, the ship succumbed to the storm and sank with all 122 passengers on board.
When the SS Yongala didn't appear in Townsville on schedule, it was assumed that it sought shelter from the storm and was just late to arrive. It wasn't until three other ships arrived in Townsville that the SS Yongala was declared missing on March 26th. Although wreckage washed ashore, the only body that searchers found was that of Moonshine, the horse who'd been aboard when the boat sank.

The wreckage of the SS Yongala remained undiscovered until 1943, when a Navy minesweeper fouled on an obstruction in the shipping lanes between Brisbane and Townsville. After WWII ended, survey ship HMS Lachlan investigated the unknown object in 1947. The Lachlan steamed over the area several times, determining that the object was about 300 feet (91 m) long and likely a shipwreck. Although the only ship reported missing in the area was the SS Yongala, the Navy did not follow up on the information.
In 1958, local fisherman Bill Kirkpatrick relocated the wreck, hoping to make a salvage claim. Although unsuccessful, he did agree to take researchers and a professional diver to the site. The group retrieved the SS Yongala's safe, and although it contained nothing but black sludge, the partial serial number on its surface positively identified the long-lost vessel as the SS Yongala in 1961. Since discovery, the ship has become one of Australia's most popular dive sites, with thousands visiting each year.
And to answer my earlier question of why the wreck is host to so much marine life, it's thanks to the SS Yongala's position underwater. The ship sank in an ideal spot for attracting animals. "The location of the wreck helps a lot because it's close to the estuaries and it's close to the reef — sort of situated in between," says Matt when I ask him about it. "But it's almost open ocean as well, so it's the perfect location for pelagics too."
World-class wreck

The oddly shaped guitarfish resembles both a shark and a ray – look in the sand next to the wreck to spot one (Photo: Nadia Aly)
As the only structure around for miles, the SS Yongala acts much like an oasis in a desert, attracting marine life big and small (Photo: Nadia Aly)
Olive sea snakes are extremely common on the wreck. While they are venomous, they are not aggressive in the least and so pose no danger to divers (Photo: Nadia Aly)
Take a dive torch even on daytime dives so that you can better pick out marine life and illuminate the colors of the wreck (Photo: Nadia Aly)
Our next few days on the site prove just as fruitful as the first. We see a gigantic Queensland grouper surrounded by a constellation of little fish, as though it were the sun and the fish were the stars. So many fish surround the grouper, in fact, that it appears almost as a shadow. One morning, when the current permits us to patrol the hull side of the wreck, we spot a guitarfish in the shallows, just off the port side.
Spadefish getting cleaned face straight up to the surface, their mouths agape as small cleaner fish flit in and out. Giant turtles are commonplace, and baitfish swarm the superstructure so thickly that making out the metal beneath is difficult. "We had a serious complaint about that," Luke tells me. "Someone said they couldn't see the wreck, so they didn't want to do the second dive. There were too many fish."
After multiple fantastic dives on the SS Yongala, I ask Matt what he thinks makes this site so special.
"It's got to be the fish life, doesn't it?" he says, echoing Luke. "The abundance of marine life you can see on one dive is like no other place."
After three days on the wreck and sightings of everything from a guitarfish to a Queensland grouper, Maori wrasse and more olive sea snakes than I could count, I can't help but agree.
The best way to visit the SS Yongala is to use Ayr as a home base. If you're flying into Townsville, you can rent a car at the airport and get to Ayr in about an hour, where you'll find several motels. From Ayr, it's about a 20-minute drive from Alva Beach, the location of Yongala Dive and your best bet for day trips out to the wreck. From Alva Beach, it's about a 30-minute boat ride out to the wreck. You'll dive the site twice, with no time-limit restrictions on the dives, and then head back to the dive shop for an included BBQ lunch.
You can still dive the SS Yongala if you're staying in Townsville, though getting there will take about three hours by boat instead of 30 minutes from Ayr. Because of the wreck's depth and the likely presence of currents on the site, it's best for experienced divers.

Today, technology is central to getting hired and doing your job, but did you know that technology can also be one of the greatest barriers to the employment success of people with disabilities?
When technology doesn't work for everyone, it becomes a major barrier to employment and career advancement. Some people with disabilities can't get hired if an online job application system doesn't work for them and they can't do their jobs or get ahead if they can't use the technology provided in the workplace.
That's bad news, not just for workers but also for employers as it limits their access to a pool of talent. Just think about a veteran with hearing loss who declines a job offer because the corporate phone system can't be adjusted for their use. Or a top candidate who can't complete an online job application because the "submit" button isn't properly labeled for someone with low vision.
It doesn't have to be this way. Implementing change is probably easier than you think and just imagine the value that comes with creating and adopting technology that's flexible enough to work for everyone.
When technology is accessible and better yet, universally designed, it becomes a powerful tool for creating a productive and inclusive workforce. This is the goal of the Partnership on Employment and Accessible Technology, or PEAT.
PEAT is an initiative to help people come together and make technology more accessible for ALL employees. PEAT is funded by the US Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment Policy. PEAT works to help employers, IT companies and others understand why it pays to build and buy accessible technology and how to do so.
On our website, you'll find a wealth of resources and collaborative opportunities. One example is TalentWorks, a tool that helps employers make their online job applications and other recruiting tools accessible. And everything we offer is always free to everyone. We work with subject matter experts and industry partners nationwide through in-person and online events and then we use what we learn to create resources for employers, companies and individuals.
So, how can you get involved with PEAT? First, sign up for our email list to receive our newsletter and register for free upcoming activities, including our webinars and podcasts. You can subscribe right on our homepage and while you're there, don't forget to follow us on Twitter and Facebook. To learn additional ways to get involved, go toPEATworks.org/about.
We hope you'll join us in our efforts to make workplace technology more accessible. Thank You.

Meta to Settle Privacy Lawsuit for $725M
Facebook parent Meta has agreed to pay $725 million to settle a class action lawsuit that claimed the social media giant gave third parties access to user data without their consent.
It is the "largest recovery ever achieved in a data privacy class action and the most Facebook has ever paid to resolve a private class action," Keller Rohrback L.L.P, the law firm representing the plaintiffs, said in a court filing late Thursday announcing the settlement.
The class action lawsuit was prompted in 2018 after Facebook disclosed that the information of 87 million users was improperly shared with Cambridge Analytica, a consultancy firm linked to former President Donald Trump's 2016 election campaign.

In the forty-sixth epsiode of Hand Of Pod, Sam, Seba and English Dan look back on the 2011 Torneo Apertura, which ended on Monday. Boca Juniors ended as undefeated champions, and the champions with the most points difference ahead of the team(s) in second place. We look at Boca's record, Racing's underwhelming campaign, Tigre's ongoing woe and Godoy Cruz's joy at their Copa Libertadores qualification. There's the Hand Of Pod Team Of The Apertura (well, most of it) and a whole glut of readers' questions on everything from the structure of the league to Racing's 1967 Intercontinental Cup win over Celtic. This is the last Hand Of Pod of 2011, so Merry Christmas to all, and a happy new year. We'll see you in 2012.
Click here to subscribe to us on iTunes, or listen below.
The forty-fifth episode of Hand Of Pod is introduced by Queens Park Rangers star Alejandro Faurlín, and sees Sam, Seba and English Dan reflecting on Boca Juniors' title win – the media bias, the key players, the impressive record and more. We reflect on Racing's failure to satisfactorily challenge them, Teo Gutiérrez's chances of getting a transfer to Europe, the political machinations behind the postponement of San Lorenzo v Tigre and the challenges awaiting Tigre during the coming Clausura. There's an aside on the stupidity of the three different tables used in Argentina to decide the title, continental qualification and relegation, and we also talk about River Plate's 'hilarious' weekend loss to Boca Unidos and subsequent midweek recovery in the Copa Argentina. We finish with a fairytale story from the Copa, about the president of fourth division Atlético Policial, who on Wednesday beat Nacional B (second division) leaders Instituto 4-1.
There are no predictions from Mystic Dan this week, as he's buggered off to Hong Kong for a holiday. You can still click here to subscribe to us through iTunes, though.

Cody Eakin scores in OT, Stars beat Blues 3-2 to tie series
BY foxsports • May 6, 2016
ST. LOUIS (AP) In short order, the Dallas Stars went from embarrassed to triumphant.
Cody Eakin scored at 2:58 of overtime and the Stars beat the St. Louis Blues 3-2 on Thursday night, bouncing back smartly from a blowout loss two days earlier to tie the second-round series at two games apiece.
''I said, `It's time for us to man up,' and I thought we did,'' coach Lindy Ruff said. ''I thought our leaders were our leaders.''
Patrick Sharp set up the winner and also scored for the Stars, coming off a 6-1 loss in Game 3. Rookie Radek Faksa had the other goal, his third of the postseason.
''I know it was ugly for a lot of the guys and the team in general for Game 3,'' Sharp said. ''Credit to the team, we were able to put it behind us.''
Vladimir Tarasenko scored his sixth goal of the playoffs on a first-period breakaway and added an assist for St. Louis, giving him five points in the last two games. Paul Stastny had his first of the postseason off a deflection from Tarasenko.
The Stars, who finished first overall in the Western Conference, regained home-ice advantage heading into Game 5 on Saturday in Dallas.
''It doesn't matter if we're in Dallas, if we're in St. Louis, if we're in the middle of nowhere,'' Blues captain David Backes said. ''We've got to play our same style of game, put it out there and when we do that the chips fall on our side of the table more often than not.''
Eakin has a goal and seven assists in the postseason and hustled to get into position on the deciding score. He beat Brian Elliott on a 3-on-2 break after getting a stick on Jori Lehtera's shot in tight on the other end against Kari Lehtonen.
''That's the nice thing about finishing first, we've got home court advantage back,'' Eakin said. ''It's a race to two, and it's going to be a lot of fun.''
The Stars are 1-2 in overtime in the playoffs and the Blues are 2-2.
Dallas is 5-1 with Lehtonen, who made 24 saves, in the playoffs. Ruff also has used Antti Niemi extensively, and joked about the daily controversy.
''Now, we've got a decision to make next game with these two goalies,'' Ruff said.
Elliott stopped 25 shots for St. Louis and thought he was in good position on the winner.
''It almost looks like it goes on the outside of the net and in, that's how close it was,'' Elliott said. ''Just regroup and go take a game from their barn.''
Tarasenko's goal was an exception to the rule in a tight-checking first period. Somehow he found the defense napping and scored his 16th career goal in 24 playoff games, beating Lehtonen between the pads.
The Stars looked worse on the play given they had six men on the ice, an infraction that went undetected.
''We still couldn't defend Tarasenko, which is kind of ironic,'' Ruff said. ''But that was my mistake.That was on me.''
Faksa, who had the deciding goal in the Stars' Game 1 victory, tied it on an unassisted goal off a giveaway by fellow rookie Joel Edmundson. Sharp had a tap-in for his first point of the series on a power play off an assist by Jamie Benn, giving the Stars two goals in 1:09 and the lead.
They'd been 0 for 12 with the man advantage before Sharp's fourth of the playoffs overall.
Edmundson played sparingly the rest of the period, totaling 2:38 in four shifts. He totaled 10:39, by far the fewest among the Blues defensemen.
''I don't want to get into going after a guy. Wrong time to do it,'' coach Ken Hitchcock said. ''Young player, they're going to make mistakes.''
Stastny's first goal of the playoffs on a deflection from Tarasenko tied it on a 4-on-3 power play at 13:06 of the second.
NOTES: Tarasenko leads the Blues with 11 points in the postseason. ... F Colton Sceviour, who scored the Stars' lone goal in Game 3, was among their scratches along with F Curtis McKenzie, who was pummeled by Ryan Reaves late in Game 3. Brett Richie played for the first time in the postseason, and Valeri Nichushkin played in his seventh game. ... The Blues have been outscored 14-7 in the second period in the playoffs. ... Several Cardinals players attended the game, including Yadier Molina and Carlos Martinez. ... The Blues raised funds from a 50-50 raffle for victims of the Fort McMurray, Alberta, wildfires. ... Hitchcock has 82 playoff victories, tied with Mike Babcock and Toe Blake for ninth on the career list.

Gov. Affairs Update
NYS Legislative Session Ends
By NYC Hospitality Alliance
Following several all-nighters in Albany, the NYS Senate and Assembly have concluded their work for the 2019 Legislative Session.
Dear Members:
Following several all-nighters in Albany, the NYS Senate and Assembly have concluded their work for the 2019 Legislative Session. While our government affairs team is still evaluating the flurry of bills passed over the final hours of the session, we did want to send just a quick initial update on legislation with potential impacts on our members. Both bodies are hailing this session as the "most progressive in history" and as you have probably read in the press, there were a historic number of bills passed now that the Democrats control both houses. As you might also imagine, it was an extremely challenging session for representatives of the small business community, but The Alliance worked tirelessly – with numerous calls, meetings, email campaigns and opposition memos – to make it clear that putting New Yorkers to work and creating economic prosperity is, at the end of the day, a "progressive" policy.
PASSED BOTH HOUSES – PENDING GOVERNOR'S SIGNATURE
As you already know from our prior update, one of the highest profile bills passed by both houses was the SWEAT bill which would allow private liens on business owners accused of wage violations. We were strongly opposed but are proud that we ultimately were able to secure significant amendments to the bill to make it "less bad" and now we will continue these conversations on the bill with the Governor's office as it makes its way to his desk. Other bills include an additional requirement for posting liquor license renewal notices on premises.
and an omnibus package of sexual harassment bills negotiated by the Assembly, Senate and Governor. Finally, after a significant amount of discussion, the Legislature also legalized e-bikes and electric scooters, which advocates and industry stakeholders had been urging in response to concerns from delivery workers.
DID NOT PASS BOTH HOUSES – NYC HOSPITALITY ALLIANCE OPPOSED
We are pleased to report that despite the challenging new environment in Albany, the NYC Hospitality Alliance was able to make its case on the negative impacts of a number of bills that ultimately did not move forward in both houses. As noted above, The Alliance issued an unprecedented number of Opposition Memos and undertook a number of campaigns (our legislative team was monitoring more than 125 bills with potential impacts on our industry!) on bills that were stopped in one or both houses, including:
Legislation to eliminate the tip wage in all of New York State (as you know, this was a major priority!)
Primary source legislation that would have impacted wine costs and access for restaurants
Amendments to make the 500 ft. rule more onerous
Extensive allergy awareness training for employees and numerous new signage and menu notice requirements
Loosening of "tied-house" laws that would have increased competition from major international corporations on our local small businesses
CONCLUSION: HOSPITALITY ALLIANCE MEMBERS NEED TO CONTINUE TO BE ENGAGE ON STATE AND CITY LEVEL
As you can see, our industry continues to be challenged from all sides – whether it's the tip wage in Albany or two-weeks paid vacation in New York City – and so we will need the continued involvement and support of all of you as we fight to protect small businesses across NYC.

8-135. Transfer of ownership of vehicles; registration; fees and penalties; certificate of title, form, fee; assignment and reassignment; liens, statement of, release of, liability for failure to comply, notice of security interest, execution; purchase and sale of vehicle, requirements; written consent by lienholder; transfer-on-death; reaffirmation of sale; assignment of title form; electronic certificate of title; reassignment forms; export title; rebuilt salvage vehicle. (a) Upon the transfer of ownership of any vehicle registered under this act, the registration of the vehicle and the right to use any license plate thereon shall expire and thereafter there shall be no transfer of any registration, and the license plate shall be removed by the owner thereof. Except as provided in K.S.A. 8-172, and amendments thereto, and 8-1,147, and amendments thereto, it shall be unlawful for any person, other than the person to whom the license plate was originally issued, to have possession thereof. When the ownership of a registered vehicle is transferred, the original owner of the license plate may register another vehicle under the same number, upon application and payment of a fee of $1.50, if such other vehicle does not require a higher license fee. If a higher license fee is required, then the transfer may be made upon the payment of the transfer fee of $1.50 and the difference between the fee originally paid and that due for the new vehicle.
(b) Subject to the provisions of K.S.A. 8-198(a), and amendments thereto, upon the transfer or sale of any vehicle by any person or dealer, or upon any transfer in accordance with K.S.A. 59-3511, and amendments thereto, the new owner thereof, within 60 days, inclusive of weekends and holidays, from date of such transfer shall make application to the division for registration or reregistration of the vehicle, but no person shall operate the vehicle on any highway in this state during the sixty-day period without having applied for and obtained temporary registration from the county treasurer or from a dealer. After the expiration of the sixty-day period, it shall be unlawful for the owner or any other person to operate such vehicle upon the highways of this state unless the vehicle has been registered as provided in this act. For failure to make application for registration as provided in this section, a penalty of $2 shall be added to other fees. When a person has a current motorcycle or passenger vehicle registration and license plate, including any registration decal affixed thereto, for a vehicle and has sold or otherwise disposed of the vehicle and has acquired another motorcycle or passenger vehicle and intends to transfer the registration and the license plate to the motorcycle or passenger vehicle acquired, but has not yet had the registration transferred in the office of the county treasurer, such person may operate the motorcycle or passenger vehicle acquired for a period of not to exceed 60 days by displaying the license plate on the rear of the vehicle acquired. If the acquired vehicle is a new vehicle such person also must carry the assigned certificate of title or manufacturer's statement of origin when operating the acquired vehicle, except that a dealer may operate such vehicle by displaying such dealer's dealer license plate.
(c) Certificate of title: No vehicle required to be registered shall be registered or any license plate or registration decal issued therefor, unless the applicant for registration shall present satisfactory evidence of ownership and apply for an original certificate of title for such vehicle. The following paragraphs of this subsection shall apply to the issuance of a certificate of title for a nonhighway vehicle, salvage vehicle or rebuilt salvage vehicle, as defined in K.S.A. 8-197, and amendments thereto, except to the extent such paragraphs are made inapplicable by or are inconsistent with K.S.A. 8-198, and amendments thereto, and to any electronic certificate of title, except to the extent such paragraphs are made inapplicable by or are inconsistent with K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 8-135d, and amendments thereto, or with rules and regulations adopted pursuant to K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 8-135d, and amendments thereto.
The provisions of paragraphs (1) through (14) shall apply to any certificate of title issued prior to January 1, 2003, which indicates that there is a lien or encumbrance on such vehicle.
(1) An application for certificate of title shall be made by the owner or the owner's agent upon a form furnished by the division and shall state all liens or encumbrances thereon, and such other information as the division may require. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, no certificate of title shall be issued for a vehicle having any unreleased lien or encumbrance thereon, unless the transfer of such vehicle has been consented to in writing by the holder of the lien or encumbrance. Such consent shall be in a form approved by the division. In the case of members of the armed forces of the United States while the United States is engaged at war with any foreign nation and for a period of six months next following the cessation of hostilities, such application may be signed by the owner's spouse, parents, brother or sister. The county treasurer shall use reasonable diligence in ascertaining whether the facts stated in such application are true, and if satisfied that the applicant is the lawful owner of such vehicle, or otherwise entitled to have the same registered in such applicant's name, shall so notify the division, who shall issue an appropriate certificate of title. The certificate of title shall be in a form approved by the division, and shall contain a statement of any liens or encumbrances which the application shows, and such other information as the division determines.
(2) The certificate of title shall contain upon the reverse side a form for assignment of title to be executed by the owner. This assignment shall contain a statement of all liens or encumbrances on the vehicle at the time of assignment. The certificate of title shall also contain on the reverse side blank spaces so that an abstract of mileage as to each owner will be available. The seller at the time of each sale shall insert and certify the mileage and the purchase price on the form filed for application or reassignment of title, and the division shall insert such mileage on the certificate of title when issued to purchaser or assignee. The signature of the purchaser or assignee is required on the form filed for application or reassignment of title, acknowledging the odometer and purchase price certification made by the seller, except that vehicles which are 10 model years or older and trucks with a gross vehicle weight of more than 16,000 pounds shall be exempt from the mileage acknowledgment requirement of the purchaser or assignee. Such title shall indicate whether the vehicle for which it is issued has been titled previously as a nonhighway vehicle or salvage vehicle. In addition, the reverse side shall contain two forms for reassignment by a dealer, stating the liens or encumbrances thereon. The first form of reassignment shall be used only when a dealer sells the vehicle to another dealer. The second form of reassignment shall be used by a dealer when selling the vehicle to another dealer or the ultimate owner of the vehicle. The reassignment by a dealer shall be used only where the dealer resells the vehicle, and during the time that the vehicle remains in the dealer's possession for resale, the certificate of title shall be dormant. When the ownership of any vehicle passes by operation of law, or repossession upon default of a lease, security agreement, or executory sales contract, the person owning such vehicle, upon furnishing satisfactory proof to the county treasurer of such ownership, may procure a certificate of title to the vehicle. When a vehicle is registered in another state and is repossessed in another state, the owner of such vehicle shall not be entitled to obtain a valid Kansas title or registration, except that when a vehicle is registered in another state, but is financed originally by a financial institution chartered in the state of Kansas or when a financial institution chartered in Kansas purchases a pool of motor vehicle loans from the resolution trust corporation or a federal regulatory agency, and the vehicle is repossessed in another state, such Kansas financial institution shall be entitled to obtain a valid Kansas title or registration. In addition to any other fee required for the issuance of a certificate of title, any applicant obtaining a certificate of title for a repossessed vehicle shall pay a fee of $3.
(3) Dealers shall execute, upon delivery to the purchaser of every new vehicle, a manufacturer's statement of origin stating the liens and encumbrances thereon. Such statement of origin shall be delivered to the purchaser at the time of delivery of the vehicle or at a time agreed upon by the parties, not to exceed 30 days, inclusive of weekends and holidays. The agreement of the parties shall be executed on a form approved by the division. In the event delivery of title cannot be made personally, the seller may deliver the manufacturer's statement of origin by restricted mail to the address of purchaser shown on the purchase agreement. The manufacturer's statement of origin may include an attachment containing assignment of such statement of origin on forms approved by the division. Upon the presentation to the division of a manufacturer's statement of origin, by a manufacturer or dealer for a new vehicle, sold in this state, a certificate of title shall be issued if there is also an application for registration, except that no application for registration shall be required for a travel trailer used for living quarters and not operated on the highways.
(4) The fee for each original certificate of title shall be $10 in addition to the fee for registration of such vehicle, trailer or semitrailer. The certificate of title shall be good for the life of the vehicle, trailer or semitrailer while owned or held by the original holder of the certificate of title.
(5) Except for a vehicle registered by a federally recognized Indian tribe, as provided in paragraph (16), upon sale and delivery to the purchaser of every vehicle subject to a purchase money security interest as provided in article 9 of chapter 84 of the Kansas Statutes Annotated, and amendments thereto, the dealer or secured party may complete a notice of security interest and when so completed, the purchaser shall execute the notice, in a form prescribed by the division, describing the vehicle and showing the name and address of the secured party and of the debtor and other information the division requires. On and after July 1, 2007, only one lien shall be taken or accepted for vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 26,000 pounds or less. As used in this section "gross vehicle weight rating" shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in 49 C.F.R. § 390.5, as in effect on July 1, 2017, or any later version as established in rules and regulations adopted by the state corporation commission. The dealer or secured party, within 30 days of the sale and delivery, may mail or deliver the notice of security interest, together with a fee of $2.50, to the division. The notice of security interest shall be retained by the division until it receives an application for a certificate of title to the vehicle and a certificate of title is issued. The certificate of title shall indicate any security interest in the vehicle. Upon issuance of the certificate of title, the division shall mail or deliver confirmation of the receipt of the notice of security interest, the date the certificate of title is issued and the security interest indicated, to the secured party at the address shown on the notice of security interest. The proper completion and timely mailing or delivery of a notice of security interest by a dealer or secured party shall perfect a security interest in the vehicle, as referenced in K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 84-9-311, and amendments thereto, on the date of such mailing or delivery. The county treasurers shall mail a copy of the title application to the lienholder. For any vehicle subject to a lien, the county treasurer, division or contractor shall collect from the applicant a $1.50 service fee for processing and mailing a copy of the title application to the lienholder.
(6) It shall be unlawful for any person to operate in this state a vehicle required to be registered under this act, or to transfer the title to any such vehicle to any person or dealer, unless a certificate of title has been issued as herein provided. In the event of a sale or transfer of ownership of a vehicle for which a certificate of title has been issued, which certificate of title is in the possession of the transferor at the time of delivery of the vehicle, the holder of such certificate of title shall endorse on the same an assignment thereof, with warranty of title in a form prescribed by the division and printed thereon and the transferor shall deliver the same to the buyer at the time of delivery to the buyer of the vehicle or at a time agreed upon by the parties, not to exceed 60 days, inclusive of weekends and holidays, after the time of delivery. The agreement of the parties shall be executed on a form provided by the division. The requirements of this paragraph concerning delivery of an assigned title are satisfied if the transferor mails to the transferee by restricted mail the assigned certificate of title within the 60 days, and if the transferor is a dealer, as defined by K.S.A. 8-2401, and amendments thereto, such transferor shall be deemed to have possession of the certificate of title if the transferor has made application therefor to the division. The buyer shall then present such assigned certificate of title to the division at the time of making application for registration of such vehicle. A new certificate of title shall be issued to the buyer, upon payment of the fee of $10. If such vehicle is sold to a resident of another state or country, the dealer or person making the sale shall notify the division of the sale and the division shall make notation thereof in the records of the division. When a person acquires a security interest that such person seeks to perfect on a vehicle subsequent to the issuance of the original title on such vehicle, such person shall require the holder of the certificate of title to surrender the same and sign an application for a mortgage title in form prescribed by the division. Upon such surrender such person shall immediately deliver the certificate of title, application, and a fee of $10 to the division. Delivery of the surrendered title, application and tender of the required fee shall perfect a security interest in the vehicle as referenced in K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 84-9-311, and amendments thereto. On and after July 1, 2007, only one lien may be taken or accepted for security for an obligation to be secured by a lien to be shown on a certificate of title for vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating, as defined in 49 C.F.R. § 390.5, as in effect on July 1, 2017, or any later version as established in rules and regulations adopted by the state corporation commission, of 26,000 pounds or less. A refinancing shall not be subject to the limitations of this act. A refinancing is deemed to occur when the original obligation is satisfied and replaced by a new obligation. Lien obligations created before July 1, 2007, which are of a continuing nature shall not be subject to the limitations of this act until the obligation is satisfied. A lien in violation of this provision is void. Upon receipt of the surrendered title, application and fee, the division shall issue a new certificate of title showing the liens or encumbrances so created, but only one lien or encumbrance may be shown upon a title for vehicles with a gross vehicle rating of 26,000 pounds or less, and not more than two liens or encumbrances may be shown upon a title for vehicles in excess of 26,000 pounds gross vehicle weight rating. When a prior lienholder's name is removed from the title, there must be satisfactory evidence presented to the division that the lien or encumbrance has been paid. When the indebtedness to a lienholder, whose name is shown upon a title, is paid in full, such lienholder shall comply with the provisions of K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 8-1,157, and amendments thereto.
(7) It shall be unlawful for any person to buy or sell in this state any vehicle required to be registered, unless, at the time of delivery thereof or at a time agreed upon by the parties, not to exceed 60 days, inclusive of weekends and holidays, after the time of delivery, there shall pass between the parties a certificate of title with an assignment thereof. The sale of a vehicle required to be registered under the laws of this state, without assignment of the certificate of title, is fraudulent and void, unless the parties shall agree that the certificate of title with assignment thereof shall pass between them at a time other than the time of delivery, but within 60 days thereof. The requirements of this paragraph concerning delivery of an assigned title shall be satisfied if: (A) The seller mails to the purchaser by restricted mail the assigned certificate of title within 60 days; or (B) if the transferor is a dealer, as defined by K.S.A. 8-2401, and amendments thereto, such seller shall be deemed to have possession of the certificate of title if such seller has made application therefor to the division; or (C) if the transferor is a dealer and has assigned a title pursuant to subsection (c)(9).
(8) In cases of sales under the order of a court of a vehicle required to be registered under this act, the officer conducting such sale shall issue to the purchaser a certificate naming the purchaser and reciting the facts of the sale, which certificate shall be prima facie evidence of the ownership of such purchaser for the purpose of obtaining a certificate of title to such motor vehicle and for registering the same. Any such purchaser shall be allowed 60 days, inclusive of weekends and holidays, from the date of sale to make application to the division for a certificate of title and for the registering of such motor vehicle.
(9) Any dealer who has acquired a vehicle, the title for which was issued under the laws of and in a state other than the state of Kansas, shall not be required to obtain a Kansas certificate of title therefor during the time such vehicle remains in such dealer's possession and at such dealer's place of business for the purpose of sale.

(12) The owner of any vehicle assigning a certificate of title in accordance with the provisions of this section may file with the division a form indicating that such owner has assigned such certificate of title. Such forms shall be furnished by the division and shall contain such information as the division may require. Any owner filing a form as provided in this paragraph shall pay a fee of $10. The filing of such form shall be prima facie evidence that such certificate of title was assigned and shall create a rebuttable presumption. If the assignee of a certificate of title fails to make application for registration, an owner assigning such title and filing the form in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph shall not be held liable for damages resulting from the operation of such vehicle.
(13) Application for a certificate of title on a boat trailer with a gross weight over 2,000 pounds shall be made by the owner or the owner's agent upon a form to be furnished by the division and shall contain such information as the division shall determine necessary. The division may waive any information requested on the form if it is not available. The application together with a bill of sale for the boat trailer shall be accepted as prima facie evidence that the applicant is the owner of the boat trailer, provided that a Kansas title for such trailer has not previously been issued.

(14) In addition to the two forms for reassignment under subsection (c)(2), a dealer may attach one additional reassignment form to a certificate of title. The director of vehicles shall prescribe and furnish such reassignment forms. The reassignment form shall be used by a dealer when selling the vehicle to another dealer or the ultimate owner of the vehicle only when the two reassignment forms under subsection (c)(2) have already been used. The fee for a reassignment form shall be $6.50. A dealer may purchase reassignment forms in multiples of five upon making proper application and the payment of required fees.

The Hungarian Contemporary Architecture Centre - KÉK is an independent professional organisation founded in 2006 with the aim of opening new perspectives in architectural and urban thinking in Hungary. The objective of the institution is to initiate dialogue about architecture, the city and its culture both within the profession and beyond, and to operate an independent and open centre that promotes architectural education, awareness and innovation among multidisciplinary professionals and the general public. Through its fresh, provoking and focused programs, relevant also in international context, KÉK is currently the only internationally acknowledged professional platform representing contemporary architecture in Hungary, and has built an extensive international network of like-minded partner organisations.
Vision: Redifining the cultural and social role of architecture and raising the international profile of contemporary Hungarian architecture and architects.
Mission: Running an independent and open centre that promotes architectural education, awareness and innovation among multidisciplinary professionals and the general public.
Objectives: Initiating dialogue about architecture, the city and its culture both within the profession and beyond; promoting contemporary Hungarian architecture at international platforms; facilitating integration between architecture and other related disciplines; supporting relevant initiatives, providing up to date and relevant professional advice and supporting widespread architectural education.
KÉK was founded in 2006 by young architects who are still supporting the organisation as members of its Advisory Board.
KÉK has been engaged in examining the latest methods, formats and possibilities of urban regeneration for almost a decade. Our research programs, advisory services and development projects enable us to involve a growing network of stakeholders in rethinking our urban neighborhoods. Our activities, ranging from the systematic reuse of vacant or underused parcels and properties through suburban community development to commercial regeneration, provide new solutions for new urban problems.
One of the most important challenges of our age is to integrate technological innovation into the architectural and planning practice in a way that contributes to a sustainable and resilient society and environment instead of feeding self-serving developments. KÉK helps this process with professional events, exhibitions and research, always seeking to bring together designers and engineers with decision-makers and the broader public.
As declared in our founding manifesto, KÉK is strongly committed to bring more transparency into decision-making related to architecture and planning. Our public debates, publications, campaigns and competition formats are all conceived to help professionals and the broader public in taking positions, articulating opinions and participating at debates about the city.
One of KÉK's most important missions is to make issues of contemporary architecture, planning and design accessible and comprehensible to the broader public, and to promote a community-based approach in urban policies. Through our festivals, cultural events, lecture series, tour guides and urban walks, we invite thousands of citizens to experience the city in new, more involved ways.
KÉK started its activity in 2006 with opening its cultural premises in Budapest, Nefelejcs street in a former warehouse in the backyard of a museum. The warehouse was in bad shape unused for decades and needed significant improvements to accommodate events and the public. The building was a catalyst in KÉK's story: it did not only give form to the organization but also determined many of its activities, helping the construction of its identity. By opening a backyard to the local street network and turning it into a lively and accessible space, KÉK increased visibility for the area to a city-wide audience.
The first phase of KÉK's operations in Nefelejcs street ended in 2008 when the centre moved to the very heart of the city into an office building managed by ORCO Property Group. The 7-storey, 6000m2 downtown building offered very different possibilities. By using the façade and roof for exhibitions and screenings, KÉK attempted to bring the building temporarily back into the public realm. This experiment for temporary use ended in the second hald of 2008.
Between 2008 and 2015 KÉK carried out its programmes at various sites without a permanent venue.
KÉK celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2016. Linked to this occasion, it has he moved to a permanent location, where it has opened its new multifunctional project space. To celebrate its 10th anniversary KÉK has released the first ever architecture beer, C10. In the same year, the Hungarian Intellectual Property Office recognised the centre's activities and its social impact by the Millennium Prize "as the decisive representative of Hungarian contemporary architecture, urbanism and conscious civic society."


Since its invention by Newton, the calculus of variations has formed one of the central techniques for studying problems in geometry, physics, and partial differential equations. This trend continues even today. On the one hand, slow but steady progress is made on long-standing questions concerning minimal surfaces, curvature flows, and related geometric objects. Basic questions also remain in such areas as mathematical physics and general relativity. On the other hand, new types of question emerge, driven by applications from economics and engineering to materials science, whose solution will depend on developing ideas and techniques in this classical branch of analysis. The July 2010 Oberwolfach workshop on the Calculus of Variations showcased a blend of continued progress in traditional areas with surprising developments which emerged from the exploration of new lines of research.

Many Questions About Syria Linger After Pentagon Press Meeting
by Isiah Holmes • November 3, 2017
Syria, (TFC)— A top US special operations general may have accidentally confessed the actual scale of the American presence in Syria. In a satellite video press conference, Army Maj. Gen. James B. Jarrard stated 4,000 troops are on the ground in the battered country. Not just over 500, as the Trump Administration previously insisted.
In fact, even Stars And Stripes noted how after uttering the number 4,000, Maj. Gen. Jarrard seemed to fumble in his words. Quickly, an apparent Pentagon spokesperson assigned to the meeting took over and reaffirmed the lower official number. Afterward, no official would confirm whether there was any truth to Jarrard's number.
Operations throughout both Syria and Iraq have been coated in mystery since ISIS first arose. As conventional troops pulled out, they were replaced with SpecOps forces, intelligence operatives, and a slew of contractors. The war zones have evolved today to be information black holes where seemingly anything is possible. In Iraq, few believe the White House's claims that around 5,000 are currently stationed there. Nor do many continue to buy the idea that American forces aren't engaged in active ground battles in both countries.
Media outlets which sniffed out Major General Jarrard's troop confession are also overlooking one thing. They're so focused on the numbers for Syria being inaccurate, that they're missing a similar event during Hurricane Harvey. President Trump both overcounted the number of troops deployed for disaster relief and undercounted those in Afghanistan. The unlikely coincidence sparked ire which was later drowned out by other stories.
Later on in the meeting, the Major General was asked about casualties the SDF took taking Raqqa back. What's interesting is that Jarrard had "good SDF numbers". No stutter, fumble, or Pentagon aid to interject in comparison to the question on US troop numbers.
Major General Jarrard also made other dubious claims concerning Syrian rebels which the US supports. During a recent liberation of an ISIS-held town, Syrian Defense Force fighters reputedly flew flags of the Kurdish PKK. Internationally the PKK, also known as the Kurdish Workers Party, is regarded as a terrorist group. One of those banners allegedly depicted PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan, and was flown by Kurdish YPG attached to US-backed SDF.
Any support to the PKK, especially covert, would fly in the face of America's standing in the war. Kurdish Workers Party fighters have engaged Turkish troops operating throughout zones stricken by war.
In a transcript of the meeting, Major General Jarrard does state the SDF is diverse and includes Kurd's in it's ranks. The military rep did, however, dance around a question which specifically referenced the flying of a PKK-affiliated banner. Backpeddling, the Major General said "I do not think you're speaking about the formal press conference from SDF leaders and RCC leaders that declared the liberation of Raqqa. During that ceremony, I do not think there was any reference to any terrorist organization or terrorist leaders."
Jarrard was also touchy when one reporter worked America's oil interests into the framing of their question. When asked if the Assad Regime tried to take back an oil-rich SDF area would the US support them Jarrard said, "I'm sorry"."I think the question is, if the Syrian regime comes to take back, or try to take back control of this area, will we continue to support the SDF." In other words, he completely removed any mention of oil from the question. He also stated that although "deconfliction" in the air is possible with the Russian and Syrian governments, ground-side this is more difficult.

Major General Jarrard's press conference shines light on several key facets of the ongoing bloodshed in Syria. It hinted to evolution's in the war, and possibly even foreshadowed future turns the conflict may take. More than anything else, however, it showed how much one must read in between the lines of answers.

Q: Redis snapshots uses too much ram I have a redis server that keeps almost 1500000 keys under a huge traffic (500 requests per second, almost 50 write operation per request), on Windows Server 2008 R2 OS. It works good with very low response times. However, when it starts the snapshot process, it keeps increasing ram usage then, couple of minutes later, goes back to normal.
Here is the screen shot when it happens :

And here is the redis snapshot configuration at conf file :
save 900 1
stop-writes-on-bgsave-error yes
rdbcompression yes
rdbchecksum yes

Here is the memory info from redis client :

Is this normal ? If not, how can I fix this ?
