Andrzej Karol Jonscher (13 July 1922 –  7 February 2005) was a Polish-British physicist at Chelsea College and then Royal Holloway, University of London.

His published books include:
Principles of semiconductor device operation (1960)
Dielectric relaxation in solids (1983),
Universal relaxation law: a sequel to Dielectric relaxation in solids (1996),
Universal relaxation law (1995),
Problems in physical electronics (1973),
Physics of thin films. vol. 8  (1975), and
Physics of thin films. vol. 11 (1980).

Jonscher pioneered the study of emergent phenomena in natural systems, and dielectric behaviour in particular. The Universal dielectric response whereby power law scaling of conductivity with frequency is found in heterogeneous materials under alternating current conditions has drawn significant attention due to its significance in many technological applications. Although this scaling behaviour is observed across a tremendously wide range of systems, there is yet no consensus regarding the origins of such emergent dielectric responses. To date (the end of 2018 year), about 9500 references had been made on two works of A. K. Jonscher (Dielectric relaxation in solids, 1999; The "universal" dielectric response, 1977). However, there is no standard theoretical explanation about the reasons and mechanisms of the physical averagings leading to the emergence of "universal" response in macroscopic solid-state ionic conductors.

Jonscher pioneered a mathematical explanation of an unusual phenomenon of negative capacitance in electronic devices. He explained the effect of negative capacitance in terms of non-monotonically decreasing transient current response under a step voltage excitation. Jonscher's insight into the physics of negative capacitance was very fruitful for understanding and explanation of negative capacitance in different types of semiconductor devices.

Hans am Ende
In 1889, the "Artists Worpswede" was founded by Hans am Ende, Fritz Mackensen, Otto Modersohn, Fritz Overbeck, Heinrich Vogeler and Carl Vinnen. The participation in the exhibition of the Munich artist cooperative in 1895 brought awards and thus the artistic breakthrough of the small group.
Hans is born on the 31.12.1864 in Trier, he became a student at the end of 1884 to 89 with a two-year break at the Munich Academy. The personal acquaintance with Fritz Mackensen, who had discovered the unknown village in the Devil's Moor North of Bremen by accident-induced end to settle down in 1889 permanently in Worpswede.
At the end, Hans has mainly on the subject brightly coloured pictures of the bog area . Here, he was away from the academic art world and found an immediately compelling nature experience. He captured in his pictures the harsh landscape of beautiful delicate nature.
The Swiss mountains - where he spent the last years of his life - becomes the motivic core of his late work. He died in 1918.
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler meaning "to squirt, spray".
Giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format printout on an inkjet printer with special different coloured or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The colours are light-fast, that is, resistant to harmful UV light. They have a high richness of nuance, contrast and saturation.
The Giclée process is suitable for real art canvas, handmade and watercolor paper and for silk.

Theses - Department of Turkish Literature
Dept. of Turkish Literature - Master's degree
Sömürgeciliğe karşı : Abdülhak Hâmid tiyatrosu
Kebeli, Sevim
Mignon, Laurent
The aim of this thesis is to explore the imperialist context in Abdülhak Hâmid Tarhan's (1852-1937) plays, namely Duhter-i Hindû (1876), Finten (1898), Cünûn-ı Aşk (1925-26), Yabancı Dostlar (1924-25) and Yadigâr-ı Harb (1917), by using post-colonial theories. In the first chapter, Hâmid's position towards classical Ottoman Turkish literature and appropriating new genres from Western literature was analyzed in relation to the concepts such as "appropriation" and "authenticity". Abdülhak Hâmid was trying to combine new genres with classical Ottoman literary tradition to reach a synthesis. In the second chapter Duhter-i Hindû was read as a political criticism of British colonialism. The third chapter focuses on the conflicts between English society and the people coming from British colonies, and the psychological effects of colonialism on the colonized people. The intertextual relations between Finten and Shakespeare's plays were scrutinized in terms of imperialism. The last chapter focuses on the cultural effects of imperialism in Cünûn-ı Aşk. This chapter also deals with the conflict between imperialism and culture which is apparent in Yadigâr-ı Harb, Yabancı Dostlar and Cünûn-ı Aşk. The thesis concludes that Abdülhak Hâmid did not only write about political aspects of colonialism but also emphasized its cultural and psychological effects. The criticism of colonialism in these plays was limited to the British Empire. Hâmid did not only criticize colonialism but he also undermined essentialist discourses such as Orientalism.

Slideshow: Booze-inspired flavors trending in food
Photo: Tipsy Scoop
By Donna Berry
CHICAGO — Aged, oaked, malted, effervescent, and even piney, as in the case of gin — these are some of the flavor profiles of beers, wines and spirits that food and beverage formulators try to capture and apply to non-alcoholic products. It's a careful technique and one that may use the real booze, simply with the alcohol evaporated. In other instances, flavor scientists have identified the compounds responsible for these sensory experiences and recreate the taste as a flavor extract.
Learn more about the ingredient technology of boozy flavors here.
These flavors are often used in the growing category of better-for-you adult beverages, some of which are no-alcohol, also known as mocktails. There are also low-alcohol options, too, such as new Fun Wine from Fifco USA, Rochester, N.Y. This low-alcohol flavored wine brand was inspired by the hip vibe and culture of Miami. This is showcased in the flavors — coconut chardonnay, sangria and strawberry rosé Moscato — as well as the graffiti-inspired graphics on the new 250-milliliter single-serve slim cans.
Adding "over-21" beverages to prepared foods is a common practice by culinary professionals as well as the home cook. Think cabernet-braised short ribs and beer brats. The alcohol in these beverages not only adds flavor, but it also assists with tenderizing protein.
In other applications flavor extracts often make more sense. Think ice cream, coffee creamer and even donuts.
In some instances, the booze is the star of the dish. That's what you find with New York-based Tipsy Scoop, which operates five parlors (the flagship stores in Brooklyn and Manhattan, as well as Dallas, Las Vegas and Myrtle Beach, S.C.) and sells product at retail, online and pushcarts. Intended only for those of legal drinking age, the 5% alcohol-by-volume frozen desserts also are served at bars and restaurants.
Year-long ice cream favorites include cake batter vodka martini, hot buttered rum and maple bacon bourbon, with seasonal specialties such as chocolate stout pretzel and salted caramel apple bourbon. For the non-dairy consumer, there are sorbets in varieties such as mango margarita and strawberry white wine sangria.
Recently the Brooklyn location received its liquor license and is now serving boozy ice cream cocktails, beer and wine. Party Like It's Your Birthday is cake batter vodka ice cream, red velvet martini ice cream and rainbow sprinkles, topped with prosecco. Night Owl features cold-brew coffee and Sweet Baby Java stout over spiked hazelnut coffee ice cream infused with Cafe Patron and hazelnut liqueur, topped with chocolate fudge.
In commercial food manufacturing, formulators may be challenged when it comes to flavoring foods with real "drinkable" alcoholic beverages, as the off-the-shelf product is highly regulated. State regulations, for example, limit how much alcohol may be used to formulate packaged foods. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, a federal agency, requires special taxes to be paid on alcohol, as well as have food formulas approved. Because dealing with regulatory agencies can be timely and costly, product developers often try to trick consumers into thinking they are tasting "the real thing." This can be accomplished in a variety of ways. Before a formulator chooses an approach, the marketing department must decide what type of language is desired on product labels.
Should the meatballs be called "merlot-flavored" or should they be flagged as "made with real merlot?" If "merlot-flavored" or something similar is acceptable, the easiest and least expensive approach is to use a flavor extract or concentrate. Depending on the application, it may be necessary to use a flavor sensation system that provides the familiar alcohol burn and tingle that somewhat dries the mouth.
Suppliers offer complex liquor flavor systems such as ancho pepper with tequila, Tuscan tomato and pepper vodka, and oak barrel-aged whiskey with sweet maple flavor. Some systems contain particulates while others are pure liquid concentrates, which may be dried into a powdered format.
Sometimes flavors are used along with ingredients that are very close to the real thing. What this means is that products can be labeled as being made with the real thing, but a food manufacturer does not need to worry about having any employees sneaking tastings. This is because formulators are choosing denatured alcoholic beverages. These contain ingredients such as garlic, onion or salt in concentrations that render them unsuitable for drinking. Denatured liquors are also exempt from state and federal taxes.
Salt denaturation is the most common and often the easiest to work with, as the formulator simply adjusts the salt content of the formulation to account for the salt in the alcohol. To retain as much flavor as possible, it is best to add the denatured liquor as late in the process as possible. Some finished products may contain some alcohol, unless they are heat processed. As long as the alcohol content is less than 0.5%, no alcohol content declaration is necessary.
If it is important that no alcohol be present yet authentic flavor is desired, some suppliers offer reduced alcohol ingredients that are around a 10-fold concentration of the original product. With these ingredients, all of the alcohol and a lot of water have been cooked off. The result is a cost-effective, highly flavorful ingredient.

Oregon Giant Earthworm: 17 Facts You Won't Believe!
Considered to be an Endangered species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Oregon giant earthworm (Driloleirus macelfreshi) is an invertebrate residing mainly in the riparian forests. The species is not common and can rarely be sighted outside the range of the coastal states of Oregon. Conservation of the species is a matter of major concern simply because these earthworms are on the verge of becoming critically endangered and, ultimately, extinct. Since there is a dearth of specimens of the species, information about its life history could not be extracted. Also, intensive research could not be conducted to conclude upon all the threats associated with these worms. However, habitat loss along with the introduction of other species of earthworms have been considered a major threat to the population of the Oregon giant earthworms. Activities like clearing off areas for agricultural purposes, the introduction of toxic chemicals, setting up of industrial and housing units have adverse effects on the survival of the species. Moreover, the introduction of exotic, non-native earthworms of the Lumbricidae family has increased competition for food, thus rendering an endangered status to the Oregon giant earthworms.

Oregon Giant Earthworm Interesting Facts
What type of animal is an Oregon giant earthworm?
The Oregon giant earthworm (Driloleirus macelfreshi) is one of the largest species of earthworm of the Megascolecidae family.
What class of animal does an Oregon giant earthworm belong to?
The Oregon giant earthworms belong to the class Clitellata, order Megadrilaceae.
How many Oregon giant earthworms are there in the world?
No records are available on the number of Oregon giant earthworms in current existence due to the lack of quantification. For this species of giant earthworm, Oregon is the only place they are found. The population trend of the species is also unknown.
Where does an Oregon giant earthworm live?
These earthworms are limited only to Oregon in the USA, unlike other worms that are found in soil around the world. However, as per recent records, the species has been traced in the Willamette Valley, Siuslaw National Forest, and Lane County. They also occur in the coastal range of Oregon, namely Benton County, Yamhill, Linn, Polk, Lincoln, and Marion counties.
What is an Oregon giant earthworm's habitat?
The Oregon giant earthworms prefer richly textured, deep, undisturbed soils in moist and damp areas where they have the provisions of ample mud and clay. Although they are quite tolerant towards acidic soil, it is challenging for them to thrive in waterlogged regions.
Who does Oregon giant earthworm live with?
Generally, earthworms are known to move in herds where each group moves in the same direction. Nevertheless, the social behavior of the Oregon giant earthworm is yet unknown.
How long does an Oregon giant earthworm live?
The giant earthworms generally live up to five years, but no such inferences can be made in this case as very little information is available about the life history of this rare-to-find species.
Like all other earthworms, the Orgon giant earthworms are hermaphrodites. These organisms possess both reproductive organs needed for the breeding process. However, it's a curious matter to know that even after having the self-reliant and inherent power to procreate, they are unable to produce offspring without a partner! These earthworm pairs compete among themselves to ensure that the other is inseminated with the sperm, which then results in the fertilization of the opponent's eggs.
As per the records of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List, the Oregon giant earthworms have currently been classified among one of the most Endangered species of earthworms. This is perhaps because of habitat loss and diminishing forests. As a result, the Oregon giant earthworm extinct risk is quite high.
Oregon Giant Earthworm Fun Facts
What do Oregon giant earthworms look like?
*Please note that this is not an image of the Oregon giant earthworm but a Lumbricus rubellus earthworm from the same class. If you have an image of the Oregon giant earthworm, please let us know at hello@kidadl.com.
Considered to be one of the largest earthworm species in North America, the Oregon giant earthworms possess a distinct pale, whitish body color. Eeach body segment contains innumerable nephridia. The clitellum is located somewhere around segment 13, extending up to segment 22.
The majority of the human population finds any species of earthworm gross, and the Oregon giant earthworm is no exception to this perspective. A handful of people would find this soil-dwelling worm cute. However, there are some species like the silkworm and the bearded fireworm that are really eye-catching.
Earthworms have a unique way of expression. They are heavily dependent on their senses for establishing communication. Generally, they are highly receptive to taste and touch. They can even anticipate approaching footsteps or predators by sensing vibrations. The earthworms are also capable of feeling moisture or sunlight in the surrounding atmosphere.
How big is an Oregon giant earthworm?
The length of an Oregon giant earthworm goes up to 4.3 ft (1.32 m) while it is about 1 in (2.5 cm) wide. Some specimen might be a little less than 3ft (0.91 m in length). The species is larger than most earthworms in the world and almost 10 times bigger than flatworms.
How fast can an Oregon giant earthworm move?
On average, the species of giant-sized earthworms have the potentiality to move at an average speed of 240 ft/hr (2 cm/sec). Specific details about the Oregon giant earthworm's speed range remain a mystery due to the lack of analysis and observation about the species.
How much does an Oregon giant earthworm weigh?
Oregon giant earthworms are perhaps the largest among all the identified species of giant earthworms. The weight of these worms has not been determined.
Earthworms are known to be hermaphrodites, which implies that these worms have the reproductive organs of both sexes inbuilt in their bodies. Hence, they are just regarded by their common name.
What would you call a baby Oregon giant earthworm?
The baby of an Oregon giant earthworm is commonly referred to as a hatchling.
The diet of the soil-dwelling Oregon giant earthworms mainly compromises organic matter such as bits and pieces of wood, stems, grass, seeds, moss, decomposed conifer needles, and similar substances. These worms are also known to feed on dead insects occasionally.
The earthworms are themselves not poisonous or venomous to humans or other animals. However, since the earthworms dwell on land, they might imbibe toxicity from contaminated soil. They can prove to be carriers of pathogens causing dangerous diseases and infections, namely salmonella and E. coli. Therefore, it always better to maintain a safe distance from earthworms.
The Oregon giant earthworm is usually not kept as pets as they cannot be traced easily. Moreover, keeping them as pets would be extremely unethical given that the species shares an endangered conservation status. Rather ensuring a protected natural habitat for their unchallenged survival would aid in increasing its population.
The Oregon giant earthworms emit a lily-like fragrant scent.
This land-dwelling species digs its burrows in deep, little disturbed soils in moist and damp regions where the soil is enriched by thick forestation.
Earthworms do not possess lungs, but they do require oxygen for respiration. Since these earthworms remain in close contact with land surfaces, the oxygen present in the soil is transmitted through their body. After absorbing oxygen from the moist soil, the dorsal blood vessels carry the oxygen to the five aortic hearts. The oxygen is then distributed to all other organs by the ventral blood vessels, and this cycle continues in a loop. So, if the soil within their habitat range is too full of moisture or if the soil is too dry, these worms would perish.
If you are wondering if giant earthworms are real, then you must be flabbergasted to know that there exist some species of earthworms that are actually bigger in the length of a human being! Yes, this is a fact. The giant Gippsland earthworm native to Australia is known to be bigger than human beings. These giant worms eat roots and soil organic matter.
What is the largest earthworm ever recorded?
Microchaetus rappi, endemic to South Africa, is the largest recorded earthworm in the entire world. According to historical data derived from a specimen in 1967, the size of the giant was recorded at 21 ft (6.7 m). This giant earthworm was traced on a road in Alice and King William's Town.
Are earthworms becoming extinct?
Earthworms are vital contributors to the ecosystem as they feed on dead organic matter, breaking them down into fragments and catalyzing the process of decomposition. Any soil replete with earthworms is likely to have high amounts of fertility. In general, earthworms are minute and fragile organisms where even an unconscious stamp of the foot is enough to erase its life. They already have a precarious status in the surrounding nature where these worms have to put up with a lot of adversity. To top that, several uncontrolled human actions have led to the destruction of the habitat of these harmless creatures. For instance, according to the stats and data released by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Oregon giant earthworm has been categorized among the Endangered species, which means that the status of earthworms is quite vulnerable in the current context. The giant Gippsland earthworm is another Endangered species. To enhance the conservation status of earthworms, adequate measures must be taken to ensure that the habitat of these worms is secured from potential threats. However, not all earthworms are threatened, as there are many earthworms that are quite abundant in their geographical habitat.

'Bubbly' Derbyshire woman died by suicide, court hears
Chesterfield coroners' court.
Michael Broomhead
A coroner has concluded an inquest into the death of a 'very friendly' woman from north Derbyshire who was found hanged at a Buxton rehabilitation centre.
Michelle Williams, 49, died in hospital after she was discovered suspended by a ligature at the Good News Family Care centre at Charis House, Buxton, on August 8, 2015.
A Chesterfield coroners' court inquest previously heard Ms Williams, of Nethergreen Court, Killamarsh, suffered from a combination of depression, anxiety and alcohol problems.

On Thursday, coroner Peter Nieto concluded Ms Williams' inquest and ruled she died by suicide.
He told the court: "Ms Williams had been experiencing mental health and alcohol problems for many years and had received input from related services at various times.
"Her family noted that she began to have difficulties from 1987 onwards.
"She had taken overdoses of prescription medication on a number of occasions.
"She died in hospital on August 8, 2015, following being found that morning hanging at the alcohol support and rehabilitation residential placement she had moved into on June 18, 2015.
"On the balance of probabilities the court finds that Ms Williams undertook a deliberate act in hanging herself with the intention of taking her own life because of the nature of the act itself, the fact that she did not call for help, and given her history of self-harm.
"Although she had been waiting for a psychiatric outpatient appointment at the time of her death, there is no indication that there would have been a dramatic change to her provision of support given her placement at the time."
Ms Williams' father described his daughter as 'very friendly, bubbly and a people person'.

Redevelopment of Gold Coast Hockey Facilities
Redevelopment of Gold Coast Hockey Facilities for Commonwealth Games
Summary of Progress
Extract from HockeyQld.com 25th May 2016
Keith Hunt Park in Labrador has been identified as the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games hockey competition venue and will undergo significant redevelopment in preparation for the event. This site is home to both the Gold Coast Hockey Association (GCHA) and Labrador Hockey Club (LHC) with both organisations each holding a lease over a clubhouse and artificial turf hockey field with City of Gold Coast (CGC).
Over the past two years, City of Gold Coast, Gold Coast Hockey Association, Labrador Hockey Club and Hockey Queensland have been engaged in numerous meetings and discussions to identify what implications the redevelopment will pose on both GCHA and LHC and what solutions/model of operation could best be implemented to maximise the opportunities the redevelopment will create. It has always been acknowledged that the redevelopment will require both GCHA and LHC to make changes to the way they have currently been operating.
One of the most significant forms of engagement between the stakeholders occurred in May 2015, when the City of Gold Coast convened a workshop, facilitated by KPMG, between Gold Coast Hockey Association, Labrador Hockey Club and Hockey Queensland to identify the issues, needs and future opportunities the development of the hockey facilities for the Commonwealth Games may present.
At the workshop, the stakeholders were asked to identify their key objectives that would be taken into consideration when planning for the future model of operation of the redeveloped site. These objectives included:
Provide a sustainable facility, both financially and in terms of maximising opportunities
Deliver a community facility – from grass roots to elite - that also has the ability to host all levels of competitions including international
Improved functionality through the optimum use of the site (maximise usage capability for hockey and other sports during off season)
Ensure the facility supports the growth of hockey
Ensure the facility remains accessible to hockey
Maintain identity as a physical club
Identify alternative income streams
Ensure availability of fields for training and competition
Improve the current model – integration and equity across the 6 clubs under GCHA
Ensure minimal additional overheads for the new management entity
While it is acknowledged that the redevelopment of the site presents an opportunity for the sport of hockey in the city of Gold Coast and all associated stakeholders, in order to maximise the sustainability of the sport it was determined a new facility management entity - Gold Coast Hockey Management Group (GCHMG) will be established to manage the facility with GCHA, LHC and all other hockey clubs/associations liaising with the new entity in relation to their use of the site.
After consulting with all stakeholders, the GCHMG became an Incorporated Association in November 2015. The members of the Management Committee elected were:
President: Scott Beasley (LHC)
Secretary: Louisa Begley (HQ)
Treasurer: Chris Attard (HQ)
Member: Paul Gasmier (GCHA)
Member: Col Rawding (GCHA)
Member: Bruce Curtis (LHC) – note Bruce recently resigned and LHC have nominated a new member
Member: Mark Carkeet (HQ)
It is important to note that Hockey Queensland's role on the GCHMG is to facilitate the development of a functional, sustainable operating model to manage the Keith Hunt Hockey Precinct with the members of the GCHMG. The future of the GCHMG remains with the Gold Coast hockey community and as such, Hockey Queensland will be removing its representation from the GCHMG post the Commonwealth Games.
The GCHMG is now the entity that is working with all stakeholders to create a model of operation that addresses the objectives defined at the workshop. This process includes identifying the most appropriate management model that ensures both GCHA and LHC have the same access to the synthetic pitches, both have an appropriate space to re-establish their clubhouse and both have a financial model that supports the needs of their operations.
As you can imagine, there is a lot of work that is being undertaken by all stakeholders to identify the best governance, leasing, financial and emotional model that meets the needs of each stakeholder.
Hockey Queensland has been supporting the GCHMG activity through the development of a business model for GCHMG, including an agreement between the entity and GCHA and LHC in relation to the use of the facility. The following high level actions have been identified as important steps in the development of the model:
Benchmarking of alternative models
Identification of key revenue and expense drivers (including consideration of lifecycle asset replacement – where that is the responsibility of the management entity)
Identification of alternative access rights approaches
Identification of potential revenue and expense sharing approaches, including items such as sponsorship/advertising, distribution of profits, etc.
Development and agreement of 'guiding principles' or 'evaluation criteria' to the identification and evaluation of alternative governance/management/business models – typically in a workshop setting
Development of alternative governance/management/business model options
Evaluation of governance/management/business model options (including the selection of a preferred model)
Modelling of the projected financial performance of the new management entity under the preferred model
Development of a business plan/model (inclusive of projected financial performance) or independent review of a business plan/model
There is a lot of great progress being made by all involved and it is anticipated an operating model will soon be agreed to and the next stage in the planning process can begin.


Genesis 14:22-23 - "But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lifted my hand to the Lord, God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth,  that I would not take a thread or a sandal strap or anything that is yours, lest you should say, 'I have made Abram rich.'"
The raising of Abram's hands speaks to the deepness of his resolve. His words are re-enforced as he raises his hands.
Exodus 17:10-13 - "So Joshua did as Moses told him, and fought with Amalek, while Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.  Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed.  But Moses' hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side. So his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.  And Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his people with the sword."
Joshua is made to see in very visible terms the connection between Moses' raised hands and the victory on the battle-field. Moses' raised hands are a forceful expression of the pursuit of divine power and protection.
Repentance can easily turn into mere apology. David doesn't just say he's sorry. His body is positioned - reaching out for mercy. His hands are a forceful extension of his heart.
Psalm 63:3-4 - "Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.  So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands."
This is the ultimate expression of holy logic. David's heart overflows with gratitude. But he realizes God hasn't just blessed his heart. God has blessed his life. And this finds expression in the body God has blessed - lips speak praise and hands are raised.
The priests would minister in the house of the Lord. Their specific job was to keep the fire before the altar constantly lit. It was to never go out. And around 3 a.m. it was a tiring part of the shift. What would keep the soul engaged and alert? "Lift up your hands in the holy place...."
One of the disadvantages of being a pastor worshiping in the front row is people can't help but see you worshiping. I'm sure there are many Sundays when people think Pastor Don is just being blessed out of his socks as his hands are raised to the Lord. Little do they know - "O God - ignite something fresh in my heart!"
Notice the emphasis on incense and sacrifice. These are constantly described as bringing pleasure and delight to the Lord. Do I really need another reason for raised hands in worship. God delights in it. Do my reservations count more than this? Again, this expression establishes proper order in the kingdom of self and the kingdom of God.
Lamentations 2:17-19 - "The Lord has done what he purposed; he has carried out his word, which he commanded long ago; he has thrown down without pity; he has made the enemy rejoice over you and exalted the might of your foes.  Their heart cried to the Lord. O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears stream down like a torrent day and night! Give yourself no rest, your eyes no respite!  "Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the night watches! Pour out your heart like water before the presence of the Lord! Lift your hands to him for the lives of your children, who faint for hunger at the head of every street."
These are not light, breezy verses. God's judgment is in full manifestation. It's affecting everyone - even the children. There is something so poignant in that phrase, "Pour out your heart like water before the presence of the Lord! Lift your hands to him...."(19).
Hearts get poured out more fully as hands are raised. I want the pouring out of my heart to find its fullest expression possible. And, given everything we're seeing from the Word of God, no one will ever convince me there isn't a connection between the thoughtful lifting of hands and the opening up of my heart.
1 Timothy 2:1-8 - "First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people,  for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.  This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,  who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.  For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,  who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.  For this I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.  I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling...."
There is something strange in those last words in our text. Everyone, everywhere should pray with uplifted hands - and then these words - "....without anger or quarreling...."(8). How do uplifted hands in prayer relate to anger and quarreling?
Well, anger and quarreling aren't just internal emotions. I quarrel with my physical lips. And what might angry hands do? Paul has just said God "desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth"(4). And that included the people with whom I get angry and with whom I quarrel.
So I must remember my physical words and my physical deeds as I pray. I pray to make sure my outward acts don't betray my prayer for those who need Jesus. My physical body mustn't make a mockery of my pious prayers.
All of these last five teachings have to do with the practice of worship in the contemporary church. This is where we live. We are the New Testament church. We function as the Body of Christ. And we're called to worship the Lord in Spirit and in truth.
How are we to do that? In our last few teachings we looked at some principles for interpreting and applying the Scriptures to our contemporary situation. Every Christian must know how to do this properly. We're all called upon to read the Word of God and incorporate its truth into our present day situations. And that includes how we are to worship.
A)	The Old Testament must be interpreted in the light of the completed revelation of the New Testament. This is something we must never forget. The Old Testament is preparatory and promissary. It constantly looks forward to the completion of the story in the New Testament.
The writer of Hebrews specifically tells us that many things commanded in the Old Testament worship patterns are now "obsolete." That is the very word used - "obsolete" - Hebrews 8:13 - "When He said, 'A new covenant,' he has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear."
Remember, if God says some things are now obsolete, we need to know which are and which aren't. So, in keeping with the clear instruction of the New Testament, the Old Testament, while equally inspired, is interpreted and applied in the light of the New.
B)	For worship practices to be adopted by the contemporary church they must be carried over from the Old Testament to the New Testament, or, they must be introduced in the New Testament and, either by repetition, or by clear instruction, be seen to be permanent additions to the pattern for the whole church age.
I'm not teaching this point again because we looked at it in detail for two weeks. We continue to emphasize singing, verbal praise, the ministry and gifts of the Holy Spirit, the Lord's Supper, lifting holy hands unto the Lord, bowing and kneeling, and the like, because they are either introduced or find continued emphasis in the New Testament.
Again, our goal is two-fold: We mustn't omit anything the New Testament includes. I'm not free to delete things just because I haven't experienced them, or they make me feel uncomfortable. And we mustn't add anything the New Testament doesn't emphasize just because they're trendy or featured prominently in some circles.
If we remember these two tensions in our worship we will always be in the safest place as a Church. This will keep us in step with the revelation of the Holy Spirit, while avoiding the errors of religious and emotional extremes and carelessness.
All of this leads us into today's study on the lifting up of holy hands unto the Lord. This is a valid New Testament worship expression because it fits in with the criteria listed in the first point of this message. That is, it is a practice that finds repeated emphasis in the Old Testament, and, because of value to our worship today, is picked up by Apostolic authority, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and is clearly mandated for ongoing practice in the New Testament church.
Let me say it again: We don't encourage the lifting up of hands unto the Lord because David did this in the Psalms. We encourage lifting hands in worship because Paul re-issues and re-endorses the practice of lifting hands for the church age.
When the New Testament re-endorses a worship practice from the Old Testament we need to give it particular attention. This is the Holy Spirit's way of showing us what we should emphasize in our worship gatherings. Some things are selected for special attention. Some things are re-emphasized by the Holy Spirit for the New Testament church.
We don't encourage the lifting up of hands unto the Lord because David did this in the Psalms. We encourage lifting hands in worship because Paul re-issues and re-endorses the practice of lifting hands for the church age.
Not everything receives this kind of attention. Dancing before the Lord is mentioned in the practice of David and some of the Psalms. But it's never mentioned in the New Testament. Jesus never talked about it. Paul never talked about it. Neither did Peter or John or James. In over one hundred years of recorded New Testament Church history and instruction and example, dancing is never mentioned once.
Please understand, that doesn't make it sinful. But it's obviously never treated as a permanent expression of worship. Laughing in the Spirit (though never so referred to anywhere in the Bible) is never once mentioned in the New Testament. Nor is "slain in the Spirit." Nor is "drunk in the Spirit."
In spite of strange and weird references people sometimes try to pull out of a hat to validate these things, and in spite of whatever you may witness at some meeting, these things do not receive emphasis from Jesus or the Apostles or the recorded practices of the New Testament church.
And remember, the Holy Spirit, in a very real sense, wrote the New Testament in which those things are never mentioned. All of this should at least make us pause and ponder how the Holy Spirit Himself wanted to be emphasized in the Church.
So why the emphasis on lifting holy hands unto the Lord? Why is this Old Testament expression re-emphasized in the New Testament? What is the meaning behind the gesture? What thoughts should be filling our minds as we do this? What did Paul see in the Old Testament that he wanted carried over into the Church age? I want to look at just one point this morning and then four more next week.
Genesis 14:17-23 - "After his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley).  And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. (He was priest of God Most High.)  And he blessed him and said, 'Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth;  and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand!' And Abram gave him a tenth of everything.  And the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, but take the goods for yourself."  But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lifted my hand to the Lord, God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth,  that I would not take a thread or a sandal strap or anything that is yours, lest you should say, 'I have made Abram rich.'"
Just to be clear - Abram provides protection and deliverance to godly King Melchizedek. And the king of Sodom is extremely grateful. He wants Abram to have all the spoils from the defeated enemies. But Abram won't do it. The King persists.
Will Abram cave in to the King's generous pleading? And what you're witnessing in this passage is the classic inward battle we all face between our best intentions and our outward compromises.
And what gives Abram inward strength is outward worship. He says, "I have lifted my hand to the Lord, the most high God...."
The lifting up of hands to the Lord is a presentation of the life - the offering up of the will - in dependance upon the Lord. It is an action that speaks of my determination to follow through on what will otherwise be only inward intentions. I present my whole being - including my physical body - to the purposes and plans of the Lord.
As in Abraham's case, the action should call to mind the words and decisions made and uttered in times of worship - times where I have sung about the Lordship of Jesus, recognized His claim upon my life, vowed faithfulness, or forsaken sin. The action of lifting my hands outwardly reminds me of my constant need to keep promises to the Lord.
We instinctively know this to be the case. Even in our courts, people place their one hand on a Bible, and raise the other as a reminder of their need to live up to what they are about to say. There is something of significance in the pointing of this part of our physical, created bodies up to the God who created and sustains them. Our lives are aimed, so to speak.
My plea here is one I've raised for decades in this church. We all come from so many different church and denominational backgrounds. We all bring different mental pre-sets and fears. And we all have our own natural temperaments. Never let the fear of fanaticism turn your mind against God's constant Scriptural summons to the obedience to the Lord with more than just our minds.
Worship must always be Scripturally holistic. God didn't create your soul. He is Lord over your physical body. And He wants that Lordship to be reinforced over all our lives in our worship as well. And nothing but life and goodness can ever come from honoring His will and way in Scriptural worship.
More next week in our final teaching of this series.

Montgomery Central's Kaleb Lane is this week's Meeks and Meeks Montgomery County Player of the Week
November 4, 2018 Fletcher Long #WeGotUCovered, Advertisement
As you are aware, we both have and continue to cover Clarksville, Tennessee talent, and talent from the Clarksville metropolitan area, as part of our coverage area largely because we are principally based in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Hopkinsville and Clarksville comprise one metropolitan area in spite of one city being in Kentucky and the second laying just across the Tennessee state line. Well, we are proud to have partnered with the law firm of Meeks & Meeks, Attorneys to feature a weekly article promoting a Clarksville-Montgomery County area prep football player. Meeks & Meeks, Attorneys is a full service law firm covering all areas within the realm of general practice from domestic to criminal defense, contracts to malpractice, Will & Estates to civil and criminal matters in General Sessions. If you have a problem, they have a solution. If you feel like you're drowning, they are the life raft. Call them at 931.645.3888 or just drop by 137 Franklin Street in Clarksville, Tennessee 37040.
If we are talking about a football player making a difference in a team's performance, Kaleb Lane's performance, all year long, comes under the heading, Damn, son! Coming into the date with Hardin County, a team which visited Montgomery Central Friday night for round one of the playoffs with an 8-2 record on the year, the 5-10 and 225 pound, class of 2020 DE/FB prospect had 55 tackles, 33 of which were solos, and 12 of which were behind the line of scrimmage. Although the official statistics from the Hardin County game haven't been entered on the MaxPreps.com site as of the date of publishing this article, we are linking the Kaleb's highlight film (Kaleb Lane versus Hardin County) which you can watch, at your leisure, and see for yourself the type of monster game the junior enjoyed. What we saw was constant backfield pressure, from a sack, to several tackles behind the line of scrimmage, to persistent quarter-back pressures, to hounding backs in the backfield left running for their lives. I can tell you this, as someone who has coached many an offensive line, if my offensive tackle couldn't block number 38 any better than that, I might give that job to the next applicant.
Next up for the Indians is a stout challenge as Montgomery Central takes its 10-1 squad on the road to Jackson, Tennessee to play North Side. Don't let the 7-4 record fool you here folks, North Side is the home team in this match-up for a reason and, while their record may not be as impressive as the Indians' record, the MaxPreps.com computer algorithm ranking has North Side significantly more highly regarded than its regard for Montgomery Central. We here at KPGFootball believe we know who the good teams are, and whom are the pretenders, and we strongly discourage North Side from overlooking this little 10-1 football team from Cunningham, Tennessee.
We are very proud to award to Class of 2020, DE/FB, Kaleb Lane, this week's distinction as the Meeks & Meeks, Attorneys, Montgomery County Player of the Week. KPGFootball continues to look forward to our partnership with Meeks & Meeks, Attorneys as we both continue to publicize and promote all of the fine young football players in and around Clarksville, Tennessee. Congratulations to Kaleb Lane for being our Meeks & Meeks, Attorneys, Montgomery County Area Player of the Week!

This painting was painted in 1993 when my former wife made first contact with somebody who lives in New Zealand. She called me all excited to tell me about her phone conversation with Yugoslav couple who just moved to New Zealand. As I was talking with her I was sitting by the easel and I made this painting as my impression of New Zealand. The island in the distance looks like Somes Island in Wellington Harbour and stars above like southern cross. It is one of number of paintings which I brought with me to New Zealand.

Q: Selecting Records On the basis of a group in sql server I have a scenario in which there are two tables , one is MAIN and second is Child.
There are possible 4 status Types
1 = Not Started
2 = Started
3 = Running
4 = Stopped
I have random records in child for each main tables's row , I need to find out only the records count in which Child's table Only Status (1,4) used.
below I am attaching the script.
   CREATE TABLE #Main
   (

            4

SELECT  *
FROM    #Main
SELECT  *
FROM    #Child
ORDER BY MainID ASC

DROP TABLE #Main
DROP TABLE #Child

I am attaching an image, these records i need , means count should be two.

A: This may not be the fastest way to do it, but the optimizer will make it close.  Also, it is clear to see that is is correct and understand how it works using CTEs
WITH haveone as
(
   SELECT DISTINCT MainID as ID
   FROM #Child
   WHERE STATUS = 1
), havefour as
(
   SELECT DISTINCT MainID as ID
   FROM #Child
   WHERE STATUS = 4
), haveboth as
(
  SELECT haveone.ID
  FROM haveone
  JOIN havefour ON haveone.ID = havefour.ID
), haveother as
(
  SELECT DISTINCT MainID as ID
  FROM #Child
  WHERE STATUS NOT IN (1,4)
)
SELECT ID
FROM haveboth
WHERE ID NOT IN (SELECT ID FROM haveother)

A: I have figure out and produced result this way.
SELECT  count(m.id) FROM #main m INNER JOIN #child c on m.id = c.mainid and c.status in (1,4)
and c.mainid not in (select mainid from #child where status in (2,3))   group   by m.id
having count(m.id) = 2

Each Graha is worshipped with a specified flower.For Homam nine types of Chamatas (twig) are used.Giving auras of gifts to the deserving devotees follows Homam.


The House of Representatives Committee on Emergency and Disaster Preparedness has directed the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), the office of the Accountant General of the Federation, the ministry of Finance and other relevant parties to furnish the committee with all transaction details of N5. 6 billion funds released to four companies in relation to the Emergency Food Programme in the North East.
The committee made this demand after another investigative session on the alleged breach of trust by National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) at the National Assembly.
According to the committee, the documents are to guide the panel to uncover the mystery surrounding the release of funds and to establish whether it was given to the companies as a loan or under whatever condition.
The decision to ask for the documents arose when beneficiaries of the contract to mop up grains, which were said to have been distributed in the North East, and the accountant general of the federation said they were selected for the job without asking for a loan to finance it from the CBN, while the Central Bank, on the other hand, insisted that the N5.6 billion was a loan.
Chairman of the committee, Hon Ali Isa J.C, also summoned the director general of NEMA, Mustapha Maihaja, to appear in its next sitting or face a warrant of arrest issued on him to compel him to appear.
This is the third consecutive time the DG is failing to attend the hearing despite repeated invitations from the committee.
Hon Ali said the agency has a penchant for sending notice of its DG's absence from the meeting either 30 minutes before the hearing commences or when the hearing has already commenced.
He added that the panel will give him one more chance to appear on the 31st of May, 2018, or face sanctions.

The MICS plugin is used for the analysis of fluorescent image sequences by Image Correlation Spectroscopy.
Introduction Fluorescence spectroscopy by image correlation is a technique that allows analysing and characterizing the different molecular dynamics from a sequence of fluorescence images.
Many image correlation techniques have been developed for different applications but in particular to study the mechanisms of cell adhesion during migration. These techniques can be used with most imaging modalities: e.g. fluorescence widefield, confocal microscopy, TIRFM. They allow to obtain information such as the density in molecules, diffusion coefficients, the presence of several populations, or the direction and speed of a movement corresponding to active transport when spatial and temporal correlations are taken into account (STICS: Spatio-Temporal Image Correlation Spectroscopy).
Chen Chen, Perrine Paul-Gilloteaux, François Waharte.
You have to choose the technique you want to use from the list and then follow the different steps corresponding to the type of analysis. A brief description for each technique is given on the main window. The control menu allows you to define an analysis ROI. Use a calibrated stack (Image/Properties) in um and seconds. Ideally start with ICS which will compute the beam width, and then run TICS or STICS. A tutorial will come soon with examples.
Download mics_toolkit_.jar and extract to a new folder in the ImageJ plugins folder. There will be a new "MICS" folder with a new "MICS" command in the Plugins menu the next time you restart ImageJ.

DJI Osmo Action camera poses threat to GoPro
The DJI Osmo Action has a screen on both its front and rear
DJI has launched its first action camera posing a challenge to the market leader GoPro.
The Chinese company already dominates the consumer market for drones.
The Osmo Action uses image-stabilisation software to smooth out its video, rather than using the electronic motors found in the Osmo Pocket and other handheld gimbals.
This mirrors the approach of GoPro's Hero 7 Black. But DJI's model has the advantage of a colour front-screen.
The 1.4in display should help frame selfie photos and videos, while its rear 2.25in touchscreen is also slightly larger than that of the GoPro.
Otherwise the devices are closely matched, both offering:
two microphones
the ability to live-stream footage via a smartphone app
a time lapse feature
up to 60 frames per second 4K resolution video
8x slow-mo video in 1080p resolution
12 megapixel photos
voice-activated controls
Camera reviewer Kaiman Wong is one of the first people to have carried out a side-by-side comparison of the competing products.
"With stabilisation, the DJI seemed a lot smoother across all five axes of movement – the footage seemed to glide along, you almost don't need a gimbal now," he told the BBC.
"And the front screen is pretty good. It doesn't show the full width of the shot, but it's good to know when you are in frame. For vloggers, myself included, it's a very useful feature to have."
WATCH: The BBC tested the GoPro Hero 7 Black last year
He added that so far he had found few downsides to the newer device.
"There is a slight lag in the DJI's display when using the stabilisation, but you can live with it and it may not be an issue [after a software update]."
GoPro has become synonymous with the market for action cameras, which are targeted at snow-boarders, surfers, sky divers, and other extreme sports enthusiasts as well as professionals who do not want to risk more expensive equipment in high-risk shoots.
As smartphones have become more rugged and waterproof, this market has become squeezed. The Hero 7's built-in stabilisation had become a key driver to convince existing owners to upgrade.
DJI is targeting its action camera at the same market as GoPro
DJI will sell the Osmo Action for £329 when it begins deliveries this week.
That is £50 below the cost of the Hero 7 Black. However, GoPro is currently bundling a microSD card, which helps narrow the difference.
The seventh-generation Hero helped the US firm post its first quarterly profit in more than a year in February, although it subsequently fell back into a loss over the following three months.
Having ditched its own drone business last year and not updated its 360-degree Fusion camera since it was unveiled in September 2017, GoPro is now heavily dependent on its action cameras to drive revenues.
As a private company, Shenzhen-based DJI does not release equivalent financial data of its own, and has a wider portfolio of products to fall back on.
DJI launched a small gimbal-mounted camera – the Osmo Pocket – earlier this year
In its favour, GoPro has established widespread distribution deals with physical retailers, making its cameras a common sight in high street stores.
But Mr Wong said DJI's entry into the market would put the American firm under pressure ahead of its next product cycle.
"The changes made to the last three to four evolutions of GoPro's action cameras have not been groundbreaking," he explained.
"And anything that GoPro does now may almost seem like a 'we-can-do-that-too' response to DJI."

Q: Compare 2 Dataframe and Find the Matching Rows I have a master Dataframe as:
Time          Frq     Seq
12:46:17      4200.0  30700.0
12:49:29      4160.0  30690.0
12:46:18      3060.0  30700.0
12:46:18      3060.0  30700.0
12:46:19      3060.0  30700.0
12:46:20      3060.0  30700.0
12:46:20      4240.0  30700.0
12:46:19      4220.0  30700.0
12:46:18      4200.0  30700.0
12:46:18      4200.0  30700.0
12:46:38      3060.0  30700.0
12:43:04      4620.0  30701.0
12:46:38      4600.0  30701.0
12:46:05      4600.0  30701.0
12:46:37      3060.0  30700.0
12:48:35      3020.0  30690.0

and a child Dataframe as:
Frq     Seq
3060.0  30700.0
4600.0  30701.0

I want to collect the 1st occurrence of the Child Dataframe rows in Master Dataframe.
I want my Result Dataframe as:
Time          Frq     Seq
12:46:18      3060.0  30700.0
12:46:38      4600.0  30701.0

A: First remove duplicated in master by DataFrame.drop_duplicates and then use DataFrame.merge - if omit parameter on it merge by intersection of columns names between both DataFrames:
df = master.drop_duplicates(['Frq','Seq']).merge(child)
print (df)
       Time     Frq      Seq
0  12:46:18  3060.0  30700.0
1  12:46:38  4600.0  30701.0

A: my approach would be grouping to get the firsts of each group to then index for the elements in your child dataframe:
first = master.groupby('Frq', as_index=False).first()
first[first.Frq.isin(child.Frq)]

#       Frq      Time      Seq
# 1  3060.0  12:46:18  30700.0
# 6  4600.0  12:46:38  30701.0

A: *

*pd.merge() -  to merge master dataframe and child dataframe with inner join.

*.drop_duplicate() -  drop all duplicate row which has Frq and Seq column value is duplicate and keep only first-row value.

*df.reset_index() - Reset the index, or a level of it.
Ex.
df = master.merge(child, on=['Frq','Seq'],
     how='inner').drop_duplicates(['Frq','Seq'],keep= 'first').reset_index(drop=True)
print(df)

       Time     Frq      Seq
0  12:46:18  3060.0  30700.0
1  12:46:38  4600.0  30701.0


Here is a popular picture of Pittsburgh Street looking West from Broadway circa 1952. The buildings on the right side, to the center are unrecognizable today. The center building was the original Parker Department Store, which became the McCrory's 5 and 10 in this image, and was lost to fire. The McCrory's location is now the Family Dollar. The building to the front right was the Scottdale House, which was originally was built around 1900 as a four story hotel, it was lost to fire in 1926. The two story building replaced the original structure. Today that spot is the standard savings and Loan. The many store fronts in between housed Murphy's Furniture, Burns Drug, Kroff's Jewelers, and more. Those buildings were razed circa 1970 for the planned "mall project". The home of Homemade Ice cream front left corner; Whitney's Novelty is now Carson's Restaurant.
The Historical society is looking for the answer to the following question; "When did Pittsburgh Street become a one way street for vehicle traffic? This question has been ask many times and we need your help in finding the answer. Please submit any information to louckshouse527@gmail.com.

Cash-strapped E-Land Group announced April 11 that it would spin off its food and dining unit from its subsidiary E-Land Park.
E-Land Park has two different business units — hotels and dining. The South Korean company's dining unit currently operates 16 restaurant brands, including buffet restaurant Ashley and Nature Kitchen, with over 500 outlets here.
E-Land Park will decide specific schedule for the spin off during its shareholders meeting on April 23.
"After finishing the process of spin off, we are hoping to raise around 100 billion won ($ 87.67 million) through diverse measures, including issuing permanent exchangeable bonds or convertible bonds," a E-land official said in a statement.
The company aims to first pay back its debt after securing new funds and then use the remaining money to expand its business further.
The group has been making all-out efforts to improve its financial stability before turning into a holding firm management structure. Its debt-to-equity ratio in the third quarter in 2018 dropped to 175.7 percent from over 400 percent in 2013.
Moreover, under the current structure, industry sources see that it is difficult for the restaurant operator to become profitable enough to finance its other divisions. The dining unit's profits had so far been used to compensate for E-Land Park's money-losing businesses.
Last year, E-land Park turned to black posting around 3.6 billion won in profit due the improved performance of its dining unit, which posted around 8 billion won profit. E-Land Park's sales last year reached 475.9 billion won and the sales of its restaurant operating unit accounts for around 82.7 percent of that.
