Every day solar energy is touching the earth's surface five thousand times as much as humanity needs to cover the complete energy demand. The potential is higher than all the other renewable energy sources together.
That's the reason why the direct usage of solar energy has an outstanding role at the international upcoming shift towards renewable energy sources.
Compared to photovoltaic, "solar heat" uses the energy of the sun for heating or cooling directly. Both processes are also used in combination and achieve a ways higher degree of efficiency than photovoltaic only.
Although it is quite new, the technique has already gained some relevant applications through some pilot projects all over the world: Such as facades able to cool or heat the houses, panels on the roof collecting the solar energy or special glass considering the position of the sun to climate the rooms. In India we find experiments going on to prepare hundreds of meals/day for a community kitchen with help of a giant solar oven. In Finland Antto Melasniemi and Martí Guixé use solar ovens for experimental kitchen and gastronomic projects. In an industrial scale, people now try to operate gas turbines with the collected solar heat to generate electricity. In a much smaller scale, direct usage of solar heat also finds its application in a more domestic field, from warming up the swimming pool to some other more poetics, such as flying kids balloons.
A particular feature of these projects is that they all require quite large and therefore noticeable surfaces in order to concentrate the sun's energy. This specific eye-catching surfaces make the solar heat a highly relevant theme for designers and architects.
Dealing with the sun the envolved materials need to face extremely high standards, such as UV exposure, strongly fluctuating temperatures, high pressures and global weather conditions.
At this stage, "solar heat" is therefore at the center of consideration in material, architecture and design.
NEW SOLUTIONS FOR SOLAR HEAT.
BASF developed and is developping types of plastics that can withstand not only the extreme conditions, but can also be processed in a highly efficient way. Some of the BASF materials are even able to substitute expensive and rare materials like copper.
The ambition of this collaborative project between HFG Karlsruhe, ENSCI Paris and the solar heat and plastic specialists of the chemical company BASF is to develop new ideas and concepts for the direct use of solar energy as well as the possibly to extend the application of already known concepts by using the high design freedom and possibilities of plastics. The participants may address the question of how to insert solar heat and sensible innovation in the domestic context.
Under the aegis of HfG Karlsruhe, students of several universities of design developed innovative designs in the fall semester 2011/2012 for a future under the sun. In the development of their forwardlooking ideas regarding the use of solar-thermal energy in urban and private environments, the young designers were advised by plastics experts of the world's largest chemical group, BASF.
Every day, five thousand times more solar energy hits the earth's surface than humanity needs to meet its energy requirement. The potential of solar energy is thus significantly higher than that of any other renewable form of energy. Solar-thermal facilities transform solar energy directly into useful thermal energy. They are therefore particularly suitable for playing an important role in the future energy mix of renewable energies. To gain solar heat, large collectors on roofs or facades are necessary. They are often perceived as disturbing the urban landscape.
The students of HfG and one of its partner universities, ENSCI – Les Ateliers in Paris, as well as of Berlin Uni- versity of the Arts (UDK), turned necessity into virtue and presented clever and surprising salutations for urban everyday life. Mentored by HfG and BASF, the young designers of The Sun Heat Project showed how the sun will help us heat pools and apartments efficiently, prepare meals, and use our streets as heat storage. For The Sun Heat Project, BASF experts from the field of solar-thermal energy discussed the technical feasibility of the projects with the young designers.
At the Milan furniture fair, the landmark annual international design event, in a joint representation with the HfG exhibition platform kkaarrlls, the project was presented for the first time to an international public and communicated via a sophisticated exhibition design planned by Martha Schwindling and Laura Jungmann.

A triptych of three interrelated one-act plays that concern five people in their late 20s and early 30s who are looking for love and lust and everything in between. In the first play, Richard, who is seeing Diane, plays host at her apartment to Lou, Diane's former boyfriend. Lou and his friend, Pete, have arrived to collect Lou's things. But when Lou and Pete begin to walk out with paintings, lamps and all of the furniture, Richard realizes that he may have inadvertently let two burglars into the apartment. In the second play, Diane, who is now married with a child on the way, and Jill, who is a free spirit, meet and exchange world views. But eventually we learn that Diane's new husband could well be having an affair with this other woman. In the final play, Jill breaks up with Pete, and that leads to a complete circle. A killing may have occurred. And a new coupling may be about to take place. "An unqualified success. Ostensibly a comedy of manners on contemporary relationships, 'Belongings and Longings' is really a reverberating, interconnected mind game, one that suggests and probes more than it discloses. Post writes with a shrewd ear for modern banter, a tantalizing affinity for Pinteresque mystery and a sublime dramatic architecture." - Chicago Tribune. "Post has subtitled this work 'a play about love and furniture,' but it is more complicated than that. His willingness, and his ability, to explore the darker corners of that much traveled - but rarely illuminated - territory of romantic love and intimacy makes these vignettes an intense and moving experience." - Chicago Sun-Times.

Carter Bartosek, a foreign correspondent stationed in Beirut, returns to his Midwest hometown for the funeral of his best friend, a former congressman who apparently took his own life while high on alcohol and painkillers. Carter discovers that his friend had left the larger political arena in order to run for mayor of this town, which has transformed itself from an industrial community in decline to a high-tech hub, and that his progressive agenda might have alienated certain members of this now affluent municipality. Over the course of five days, Carter kicks through the ashes of his childhood and confronts those people who he considers to be his extended family in search of the truth surrounding this alleged suicide. Was his friend murdered for his politics? And, if so, what does that say about Carter himself and this bucolic place he once called home? "Mysteriously magic 'Blissfield' makes a compelling case…A piece that clicks along smoothly with suspense and surprise and finishes with a tremendous kick of irony…It's like a terrific B-movie, with brains - and a conscience." - Chicago Tribune. "A total success…Douglas Post has a gift for suspense, and he creates a genuine curiosity and, thankfully, a satisfying revelation." - New City. "Crisp and compelling…Post's play is full of twists and turns involving love affairs and alienated affection, precocious children and greed…It reminded me of Roman Polanski's 'Chinatown.'" - Windy City Times.

This political drama centers on Congressman Dixon McDaniels, a moderate Republican from Texas, who is caught in the crossfire between his liberal wife, an atmospheric scientist studying the effects of global warming, and his conservative chief of staff, an evangelical and a believer in the end times. Over the course of a weekend, Dixon, his wife and his staff grapple with their ideological differences as he attempts to push an energy bill through Congress. And all the while a hurricane gathers force off the Gulf Coast threatening his estate and the surrounding terrain. "Highly recommended…A timely work…It tackles a daunting, divisive issue: the role of faith in American politics…Post communicates the integrity of each character while challenging their positions…This is a play about truth, not certainty – a play that's as much about doubt as faith." - Chicago Reader. "Recommended…This lively, accessible play uses a relatively simple conflict between what appears to be a moderate Texas Republican congressman and his wise-cracking, environmentally charged wife…A very cleverly balanced play." - Chicago Tribune. "Recommended…The crux of Post's play asks this intriguing, all too rarely asked question: just what should the role of a political leader be – prophet, innovator or devoted shepherd-custodian? You might well leave the theater musing on whether the world, as we know it, will end with a bang or a whimper." - Chicago Sun-Times. "Douglas Post's 'Cynical Weathers' is a good old-fashioned topical play…A thought-provoking and enjoyable evening of theater…I can honestly recommend it." - Hyde Park Herald. "Douglas Post's witty new play takes a provocative look at what can happen when politics and religion meet." - Lake County Journals. "Among the many likable aspects of this play, the witty dialogue particularly stands out. The dynamic between Dixon, Cat, and their two cynical staffers, Manny and Lee, should entertain any fan of backstage political drama. These are smart characters talking at the top of their intelligence." - Center Stage Chicago.

Ultimately Alex comes face to face with the Napoleon of crime, the sinister and strangely slender, Fat Guy.

Duncan Crawford, a bartender on the island of St. John, is considering abandoning his way of life for greater adventure when Emily Miles, an heiress from Manhattan, wanders into his establishment and begins to recount her sad tale. She tells him how she was left at the altar at the tender age of nineteen by a fiancé who suddenly disappeared, how she has spent the past twenty years searching for this man, and how she now believes that she has found him in the person of Duncan. Duncan denies this, but Emily is certain. To complicate matters, Emily's husband, Raymond, an investment banker, offers Duncan $10,000 to pretend he is the man Emily is looking for in the hope that she will finally come to some sort of closure over the event. The story continues to twist and turn right up to the ambiguous conclusion - Duncan might be playing along with Raymond or he might actually be the man Emily claims he is. The play was originally presented as a staged reading at the 1994 O'Neill National Playwrights Conference and further developed at the 1995 Shelykova Playwrights Conference in Russia. It received its world premiere at Victory Gardens Theater in Chicago in 1996. It has also been recorded as a radio play for L.A. Theatre Works with Harry Hamlin, Martha Lavey and Paul Winfield. "A specialty of playwright Douglas Post: a philosophical mystery...working in territory that Alfred Hitchcock explored...Post weaves in deeper considerations on memory, commitment and the strange ways of the passage of time." - Chicago Tribune. "Post's play, unfolding in a swiftly moving succession of scenes without intermission, shines when his sharply drawn characters trade wisecracks and ironies." - Chicago Sun-Times. "A kind of dramatic Rorschach test, Post's psychological puzzler forces audiences to fill in some tantalizing blanks." - Chicago Reader.

This winner of the first annual L. Arnold Weissberger Playwriting Award is a poetic thriller about a would-be poet and part-time librarian named Sara McKeon whose lover of ten weeks, David Ames, is found dead one hot August morning in the city of Chicago. It appears that David, owner and manager of an expensive art-deco restaurant, may have been involved in several illicit activities including kidnapping, rape and murder. Unable to believe that the man she gave her heart to was a killer, and outraged by the fact that the police seem to have closed the book on the case, Sara begins her own investigation of the crime and is led deeper and deeper through the urban labyrinth into the contemporary underworld. As the detective story moves forward in time, scenes from the love affair take us back to the moment when Sara and David first met. Finally the plots converge and Sara finds herself face to face with the person who murdered her beloved. The play was originally presented as a staged reading at the 1989 O'Neill National Playwrights Conference and received its world premiere at Second Stage Theatre in New York in 1991. It has now had some 50 productions across the country. It has also received a British tour and has been recorded as a radio play for L.A. Theatre Works with Annette Bening, Ed Begley Jr. and John Mahoney. "Douglas Post's play is a case of film noir on stage. Hard-bitten but with a tinge of sentiment...the devious U-turns in the plot continue past the ending of this taut new thriller." - New York Times. "It is thoroughly engrossing, holding you fast for about 100 intermissionless minutes...a genuine cop thriller, with devious plot turns, tough, corner-of-the-mouth, Chandler-and-Hammett-style dialogue, and enough surprises to startle rabbits out of holes let alone hats." - New York Post. "A winner...a satisfying whodunnit shot through with sardonic humour...psychologically absorbing...richly poetic...a seriously good play." - Portsmouth News. "A brilliant and remarkable play...compulsively gripping...an undoubted success." - Bournmouth Daily News.

He, thankfully, transcends the original work's heavy-handed nature through wit, candor and conversational warmth. The cast's versatile voices balance and enhance styles that join gospel, calypso, rap, choral music and ballads in an earthy yet sublime universality. Dark strains of Kander and Ebb-style show tunes seep through soaring passages of 'Les Miserable'-type proportions.

When Sophocles' Antigone was first performed in 441 B.C. three male actors portrayed all eight characters with a chorus made up of elders from the community. This musical, composed of thirty songs and completely sung-through, is a retelling of that story written to be performed by three women who play all of the roles, and four men who play instruments and also act as members of the chorus. The action starts after brothers Polynices and Eteocles have battled to the death for the crown of Thebes. Their uncle, the newly-crowned King Creon, proclaims that Eteocles is to be buried with full honors, while the corpse of Polynices is to be left on the battlefield to rot. Outraged, Polynices' sister Antigone defies Creon's mandate, and risks her life to properly honor her brother's corpse. Antigone soon confesses to the deed and is sentenced to death by slow suffocation, despite the protests of Creon's own son Haemon, who is deeply in love with her. Ultimately, tragic fate brings fit punishment to Creon himself, decimating his family, and leaving the audience to ask, should we follow God's law or Man's law? "'God and Country' commands with fiery reign...A sensational new musical now receiving a powerhouse world premiere at Victory Gardens Theater in a production that will have you on the edge of your seat for 90 uninterrupted minutes...It's driven forward with thunderous momentum by a highly sophisticated and soul-stirring rock score that avoids every cliché and a trio of performances of such vocal and dramatic force that they could easily be transferred to the great stone arenas where the plays of Sophocles were first performed. 'God and Country' may be brand new, but it already feels like a classic." - Chicago Sun-Times. "Douglas Post makes a stimulating mix of ancient Greek tragedy and modern rock music...A deeply committed, audacious adaptation of one of the Western world's most enduring stories." - Copley News.

This winner of the first Cunningham Commission Award for Youth Theatre is an inspiring new musical for American children's theatre about the magic of storytelling. One winter's day, Hans, an unruly farm boy who has lost his way in the woods, stumbles across a golden key. It unlocks an enchanted chest that holds the imprisoned Gerhardt the Great and his troupe of traveling players. To show their thanks, the players perform three tales for Hans: "The Golden Goose," "The Three Huntsmen" and "The Four Skillful Brothers." Their theatrical antics are underscored by a collection of songs that range in style from ballads to blues to rock. Finally, the players depart, leaving Hans with some valuable lessons about generosity, loyalty, and hard work. "A new musical from DePaul's Chicago Playworks enchants theatergoers." – Time Out Chicago. "An A+ for kids and an A for parents." – Chicago Parent.

This psychological thriller centers on Thomas Devereaux, a successful architect and local contractor, and his lovely wife, Joan, who have recently moved into their dream house in the suburban town of Green Meadows, Illinois. They are soon visited by their new neighbors, Carolyn and Jeff Symons, and a friendship develops between the two couples. But underneath the cool, middle American exterior, something is truly rotten. A previous sexual relationship between Joan and a teenage lawn-boy is revealed, as is the fact that Thomas learned of the infidelity and may have murdered his wife's lover. To make matters worse, an affair develops between Joan and Jeff. One summer evening, following the Symons' departure after a friendly game of cards, Thomas lets Joan know that he is aware of this new deception, and his violent nature takes hold. He makes two demands of his wife: one, she must stop seeing Jeff. Two, she must kill him. What follows is a diabolical plot that continues to thicken through the final showdown between a murderer and an aggrieved widow. Steppenwolf Theatre Company and WMAQ-TV first produced this thriller as a one-act teleplay in 1986. It was nominated for six Emmy Awards including one for Individual Achievement in Writing. The full-length version of the play received its world premiere at The Nuffield Theatre in Southampton, England in 1992. The American premiere took place at Victory Gardens Theater in Chicago in 1995. Since then, the play has had over eighty productions around the world. "A thoroughly satisfying thriller on all points." - WMAQ-TV. "A wonderful evening of sleuth and murder." - Near North News. "It spins a web of deception, sex, murder and mind games as two suburban couples discover their darker sides." - Chicago Tribune.

"Douglas Post is one of those rare scribes who is both a serious playwright capable of exploring important themes and an unabashed lover of the thriller genre with a weakness for the ripping yarn. It's a savvy niche. 'Personal Effects' is a play that revels in a good plot twist even as it explores such themes as communal guilt, the limits of revenge and the possibilities of forgiveness." - Chicago Tribune. "A terrific play…a beautifully crafted noir thriller…a surprisingly tense plot that deals with powerful themes such as revenge and forgiveness with enchanting use of symbolism and the connection of spiritualism and the eternal urge to return to the land, to one's roots." - Chicago Critic.

By admin On November 24, 2020 0
The BBC has revealed its list of 100 inspiring and influential women from around the world for 2020 and Aisha Yesufu and Uyaiedu Ipke-Etim made it to the list.
This year's 100 Women is highlighting those who are leading change and making a difference during these turbulent times.
The list includes UK nurse, Professor Dame Elizabeth Anionwu, who is of Nigerian descent.
She is an emeritus professor of nursing at the University of West London and a patron of the UK Sickle Cell Society.
She is a groundbreaking sickle-cell and thalassemia nurse who campaigned for a statue of British-Jamaican nurse Mary Seacole. She's been a key figure in highlighting the disproportionate impact of Covid-19 on BAME communities.
Uyaiedu Ipke-Etim, a Nigerian feminist film-maker, director and LGBTQ+ activist, who has committed herself to creating stories about marginalised groups in Nigeria, also made it to the list.
Her film If??, which means "love" in Yoruba, tells the story of two Nigerian lesbians navigating the harsh, homophobic realities of Nigeria. Following the announcement of the film's impending release, it has faced state censorship in Nigeria.
Aisha Yesufu, a Nigerian activist demanding good governance in Nigeria, also made it to the list.
Others on the list are: four-time Grammy award winner Angélique Kidjo, who advocates on behalf of children as a Unicef ambassador, Sanna Marin, who leads Finland's all-female coalition government, Michelle Yeoh, star of the new Avatar and Marvel films and Sarah Gilbert, who heads the Oxford University research into a coronavirus vaccine, as well as Jane Fonda, a climate activist and actress.

If Pra means first, Na means vibration and an means to breathe, what then is Pranayama?
If we take "an" ~ which means to breathe and add it to "ayama" ~ which means to lengthen/expand/extend, we can see that pranayama is something about lengthening, expanding or extending the breath ~ and pranayama practises are generally interpreted as breath control exercises.
The introductory pranayama technique is an awareness of how the muscle bands around the lungs 'work'. The practise can help you to become aware of how breathing techniques appear, and the 'affects' the different muscle bands.
Pranayama practises are not appropriate for every yoga practioner; some techniques are not suitable for those with certain medical conditions, and other practices may be modified to suit certain aliments. The general advise is to never rush or strain and practice before asanas. BWY teachers advise not to practise pranayama if you suffer from a heart condition, blood pressure problems or are pregnant.
Pranayama is defined most accurately as extending or expanding the dimensions of prana. Certainly as pranayama practices develop they allow you to experience your breath ~ or indeed prana ~ on a deeper level.
Prana in yoga philosophy and practise is often a metaphor for something much greater ~ an energy that the western world of science is only just beginning to discover.

Q: UIImageView from array and touch? for IPhone i have this method
Code:
- (void)addImageSubViewAtX:(CGFloat)x atY:(CGFloat)y {
  CGRect myImageRect1 = CGRectMake(x, y, 30.0f, 30.0f);
  myImage1 = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:myImageRect1];
  [myImage1 setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"status_finish.gif"]];
  [self.view addSubview:myImage1];

}

now i am using this to call images
Code:
[self addImageSubViewAtX:160.0 atY:190.0];

and
[self addImageSubViewAtX:10.0 atY:190.0];

but touch method is working only on 1 image not both
Code:
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
     UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
     CGPoint p = [touch locationInView:self.view];
     if (CGRectContainsPoint(CGRectMake(myImage1.frame.origin.x, myImage1.frame.origin.y, myImage1.frame.size.width, myImage1.frame.size.height ), p))
     {
         [pieMenu showInView:self.view atPoint:p];
     }
}

how to make this touch working for both of them

A: You are reinitializing the the same image view (myImage1) in your addImageSubViewAtX method not creating and adding a new one. So only the latest image view is accessed in the touch method when you use myImage1.
Instead add a new image view every time. Give it a particular tag before adding and check for a touch on the view with that tag.
Something like :
- (void)addImageSubViewAtX:(CGFloat)x atY:(CGFloat)y {
  CGRect myImageRect1 = CGRectMake(x, y, 30.0f, 30.0f);
  UIImageView myImage1 = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:myImageRect1];
  [myImage1 setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"status_finish.gif"]];
  myImage1.tag = 1000;
  [self.view addSubview:myImage1];
}

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
 UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
 if ([[touch view] tag] == 1000)
 {
     [pieMenu showInView:self.view atPoint:p];
 }
}

A: Okay,
you are calling 2 times the - (void)addImageSubViewAtX:(CGFloat)x atY:(CGFloat)y - Method.
In this method you're setting the pointer of myImage1 to a new instance of a UIImageView.
So myImage1 is the reference to the last UIImageView you have added.
Thats why it just works for one imageView.

Volcano Watch —Lava flow hazard map revisited
By Hawaiian Volcano Observatory May 28, 1995
Maps showing volcanic hazard zones for the Big Island were first prepared in 1974 by the U.S. Geological Survey.
Updated lava flow hazard map, Island of Hawai'i.
Maps showing volcanic hazard zones for the Big Island were first prepared in 1974 by the U.S. Geological Survey. The mapping project was instigated by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), which was required to consider natural hazards before extending its programs to new areas. At HUD's request, the USGS prepared maps delineating hazard zones for lava flows, ashfall from explosive eruptions, ground rupture, and ground subsidence.
The original map showing lava flow hazards was updated in 1987 because a wealth of new information was available from geologic mapping on Kīlauea, Mauna Loa, and Hualālai Volcanoes. By mapping and dating prehistoric flows, geologists now had a better idea of the eruption history of each volcano and of how often any given area had been overrun by lava.
The 1987 lava-flow hazard map was incorporated into a booklet entitled, "Volcanic and Seismic Hazards on the Island of Hawaii", published in 1990. This booklet is still available at no cost from the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory.
Partly in response to demand for a larger version of the lava-flow hazard zone map, it was revised slightly in 1992 on the basis of more information from geologic mapping and published in cooperation with the Hawaii Office of State Planning. The new map has a scale of 1:250,000 and can be overlain on the USGS topographic map of the Big Island, which is at the same scale. The hazard map is currently for sale at "Basically Books" bookstore in Hilo.
The lava-flow hazard zones are based solely on geological criteria, including the location of eruptive vents, past lava flow coverage, and the topography of the volcanoes. Hazard zone boundaries are approximate, and the change in degree of hazard from one zone to the next is generally gradual rather than abrupt.
The current map divides the island into nine zones based on the likelihood of coverage by lava flows. Zones 1-3 are limited to the active volcanoes of Kīlauea and Mauna Loa. Zone 1, the most hazardous, includes the summits and rift zones of Kīlauea and Mauna Loa where vents have been repeatedly active in historic time and lava flows will originate in the future. Areas adjacent to and downslope of active rift zones make up zone 2. All of the 181 houses destroyed in the 1983-present eruption of Kīlauea were located in zone 2, about 8 miles from the vent.
Zone 3 includes areas gradationally less hazardous than Zone 2 because of greater distance from recently active vents or because the topography makes it less likely that flows will cover these areas.
Zone 4 comprises all of Hualālai Volcano, where the frequency of eruption is lower than on Kīlauea and Mauna Loa. Hualālai is in a single zone because its slopes are steep and flows could rapidly cover the distance between potential vent sites and the coast. Therefore, the hazard is considered to be essentially equal anywhere on the volcano.
Zones 5 and 6 are areas on Kīlauea and Mauna Loa currently protected from lava flows by the topography of the volcano. Zones 7-9 include the dormant volcanoes of Mauna Kea and Kohala. The younger part of Mauna Kea, which last erupted about 3000 years ago, makes up zone 7; the rest of the volcano is included in zone 8. Zone 9 consists of Kohala Volcano, which last erupted over 60,000 years ago.
We can do little to reduce or eliminate the volcanic hazards that have always existed on the Big Island, but we can greatly reduce the risks to life and property posed by these hazards. Our best tools for reducing risk are proper land-use planning, which limits development in high hazard areas, and education, which gives people a rational basis for deciding where to build a home, develop commercial property, or locate a public facility.

PORTLAND, OR – Glaucoma – often called "the sneak thief of sight" because it can strike without symptoms – is one of the leading causes of blindness in the United States. Unfortunately, 91 percent of Americans incorrectly believe glaucoma is preventable, according to the American Optometric Association's third annual American Eye-Q® survey.
Although glaucoma is not preventable, The Oregon Optometric Physicians Association says if diagnosed and treated early, the disease can be controlled with eye drops, medicines, laser treatment or surgery. January is National Glaucoma Awareness Month and a good time to become educated on the disease.
Approximately 2.2 million Americans age 40 and older have glaucoma, according to National Glaucoma Research and as many as 120,000 are blind because of the disease. The number of Americans with glaucoma is estimated to increase to 3.3 million by the year 2020, as baby boomers age.
Glaucoma occurs when internal pressure in the eye increases enough to cause damage to the optic nerve, leading to loss of nerve tissue and vision. The most common type, primary open-angle glaucoma, develops gradually and painlessly. A much rarer type, acute angle-closure glaucoma, can occur rapidly and its symptoms may include blurred vision, loss of peripheral vision, seeing colored rings around lights, and pain or redness in the eyes.
Dilating the eyes in examination allows a doctor to see the retina, optic nerve and vessels in the back of the eye more clearly. Yet, even though African-Americans and Hispanics are genetically more susceptible to glaucoma, 37 percent of those surveyed did not have their eyes dilated during their last eye exam.
The Oregon Optometric Physicians Association recommends comprehensive eye exams every two years for adults under age 60 and every year thereafter. Your doctor may recommend more frequent exams depending on your medical or family history.
To find an optometrist in your area, or for additional information on glaucoma and other issues concerning eye health, please visit www.oregonoptometry.org or www.aoa.org.
The American Optometric Association represents approximately 36,000 doctors of optometry, optometry students and paraoptometric assistants and technicians. Optometrists serve patients in nearly 6,500 communities across the country, and in 3,500 of those communities are the only eye doctors. Doctors of optometry provide more than two-thirds of all primary eye care in the United States. For more information, visit www.aoa.org.

Q: Relation between two variables I have approx 500 variable (each variable containing 80 data points). I need to find how each of the variable is related to other 499 variables - linear, log, exponential and so on. Is there a statistical test which could provide me with this information? I don't want to go through manual process of having trendline and finding the R-squared value.
Help much appreciated :)
Thank you!
Vinay

A: With 500 variables and all pairwise comparisons, that gives you 124,750 comparisons.  Doing one test on each pair at an alpha of 0.05 would generate over 6,000 false positives (assuming all nulls are true).  If you want to compare between multiple possible relationships that will inflate things even more.  Depending on the variability around the "True" relationship, 80 data points may not be enough to distinguish between the potential relationships (or at least subsets of them).
Also, what are your plans if the "Best" fits are contradictory?  e.g. variables 1 and 2 are linearly related, but 1 is exponential with 3 while 2 is log with 3 (if 1 and 2 are linear then they should have the exact same relationship with 3).  Any automatic method could give results like this even though it would contradict any underlying science.
So basically pulling 124,750 relationships out of a hat (or otherwise generating them randomly) will probably give you as much useful information (with less effort) than any automated method.
If you tell us more about why you think you want all those relationships, and how you plan to use them, basically what is your real and final question, then we may be able to give more useful advice.

George Floyd death: Pressure mounts for US...
Pressure is mounting in the US state of Minnesota for prosecutors to bring charges against the Minneapolis police officers involved in an arrest that led to the death of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man.
"What we saw was a public lynching without a rope," said Leslie Remond, the president of Minneapolis chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
"Enough is enough. We are done dying," Remond told Al Jazeera. "We want to see them prosecuted."
Bridgett Floyd, George's sister, told ABC's Good Morning America programme on Wednesday that she feels "those guys need to be put in jail".
"They murdered my brother," she said.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey echoed those calls in a news conference on Wednesday, asking: "Why is the man who killed George Floyd not in jail?"
He added: "If you had done it, or I had done it, we would be behind bars right now."
'I can't breathe'
Floyd died at the hospital late on Monday after Derek Chauvin, a white police officer, knelt on the 46-year-old's neck for several minutes as Floyd moaned and yelled: "I can't breathe."
A video of the incident shows Floyd pleading with police and eventually appearing motionless as the officer's knee remained on his neck. Bystanders can be heard urging the officer to get off of Floyd.
Medaria Arradondo, the city's Black police chief, swiftly fired the four officers involved in Floyd's death, a move community leaders said should be acknowledged, but is not enough.
"I don't want to undermine how big of a win it was to Chief Arradondo to fire those four officers the same day the footage was shown to the public," the NAACP's Remond said, highlighting that while it was only one officer who pinned Floyd to the ground "all of them were responsible and played a role".
"The next step," Remond said, was charges being brought against the four officers – identified as Chauvin, Thomas Lane, Tou Thao and J Alexander Kueng – both locally and federally.
"What we are seeing is a violation of Black people's human rights," Remond said. "Our humanity has always been denied on American soil."

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehensive (BCA) and the FBI are both investigating the incident.
The Hennepin County Attorney's Office, which will handle the case, said in a statement it was "shocked and saddened by what appeared in a recent video".
It added that after the BCA and FBI present their findings, it will make a decision on prosecution.
"We promise a thorough, expedited review consistent with our ongoing commitment to justice," the statement read. "Every person is entitled to fairness; no person stands above the law."
Remond said other Black leaders are pushing for resources to be poured into the community and for police officers to be trained by community members to help bridge the disconnect she says has long existed.
New security camera footage
The Minneapolis Police Department said on Tuesday Floyd "physically resisted officers".
Security camera footage, obtained by CBS News, shows Floyd sitting on the ground with his hands behind his back and then walking with police out of frame.
"Security cameras captured moments before the murder of #GeorgeFloyd," tweeted prominent civil rights lawyer, Benjamin Crump, who is representing the Floyd family. "He was clearly NOT RESISTING arrest… So WHY did Minneapolis Police officers use excessive force that ultimately resulted in his death?! WE DEMAND ANSWERS."

— Benjamin Crump, Esq. (@AttorneyCrump) May 27, 2020
It is unclear what happens between the time Floyd and police walk out of the frame and the time when a bystander video shows an officer pinning Floyd down to the ground with his knee.
The Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis issued a statement on Tuesday, saying its officers were cooperating with investigators and urged "now is not the time to rush to judgement".
'No justice, no peace'
Calls for justice for Floyd have reverberated across the country, with hundreds of protesters taking their demands to the streets of Minneapolis.
On Tuesday night, demonstrators filled the intersection where Floyd was pinned down, chanting "I can't breathe" and "no justice, no peace". Floyd's death has been compared to that of Eric Garner, an unarmed Black man who died in 2014 after being placed in a chokehold by New York City police and pleading: "I can't breathe."
Video showed police using tear gas against some protesters who marched to a police precinct. There were also reports of non-lethal projectiles being fired by police. Authorities said some protesters destroyed a window of the precinct and sprayed graffiti on police vehicles.

US President Donald Trump publicly addressed Floyd's death for the first time on Wednesday afternoon, calling it a "very sad event".
"We're going to look at it, and we're going to get a report tomorrow when we get back. And we're going to get a very full report," Trump said during a visit to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. "But a very sad day."
Floyd's death is the latest case of a Black man or women being killed by police or former law enforcement.
The FBI are also involved in recent investigations in Louisville, Kentucky, and Glynn County, Georgia.
In Kentucky, 26-year-old Breonna Taylor was killed by police on March 13 as they served a warrant in a drug investigation. Police said they were returning fire from Taylor's boyfriend, who said he fired in self-defence, believing someone was breaking into the apartment. No drugs were found.
In Georgia, the US Justice Department is weighing hate crime charges in the February 23 shooting death of 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery, a Black man killed while running in a predominantly white neighbourhood. It took more than two months and a viral video for police to arrest Gregory McMichael, a retired investigator for the local prosecutor's office, and his son, Travis, both of whom are white. The McMichaels claimed they believed Arbery was involved in a burglary and he was shot in a struggle for Travis McMichael's gun. Arbery's mother said she believes her son was just going on a jog.
According to the Washington Post Fatal Force database, more than 1,000 people have been shot and killed by police in the last year. According to the database, Black Americans are killed by police at a disproportionate rate.
African American adults are nearly six times as likely to be imprisoned or jailed than white adults, according to the Sentencing Project watchdog group.
These racial disparities have given rise to Black Lives Matter, which was founded in 2013 and seeks to end police violence and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities.
Calls grow for prosecution of cops involved in the arrest an unarmed Black man who died after police pinned him down.
