It is, I bought two (and two ACA500 back then, still a worthy expansion over some others at the right price IMO) so actually what the new run made me think about was Indivision, don't have one as I have CRTs and Joytechs, but considering 'just getting it' in case I find a larger flatscreen for travel and demoparties. Not sure. I'm sort of a CRT way or the highway kinda guy. But thinking about it.
The original Indivision ECS (which is the one I have in a couple of machines) is rather nice, though its party trick - the 50Hz mode - does require a monitor that is compatible with 50Hz over VGA. And sadly, a lot aren't.
I'll be honest and say I still kinda prefer the look of the screen on the Philips monitor (smallish CRT's are very hard to beat for Amiga stuff IMHO), but the Indivision gives a very nice and crisp image nonetheless. The new scaler/scanlines options sound nice too.
I've just noticed the X-surf-500 is also available. Good times.
It would be great if jens could send u some review samples so we know what we buy.
Sweet stuff. I have been wondering if the A4000D Indivision AGA is going to be made again. My Picasso 4 does very well, but there are times I'd really like to BlizKick A500 Kickstart and see the screen on my newer monitors. But great news for A500 users. I still have one, and should probably have it re-capped.
Appreciate the share. Well done, Jens.
Wasn't there a rumour going around awhile ago that Jens was also working on a new Indivision AGA card, or have I confused it with this ECS version?
"Indivision AGA MK2cr for A4000D and CD32."
"This version of the flicker fixer is currently sold out. We are working on a new version."
Yes, Jens will come up with new AGA indi in early 2019, including some of the new ECS Indi v3 features as well (e.g. V-Sync).
Individual Computers announce 040/060 accelerators for next year?
We will also be able to serve numerous requests for even faster accelerators next year: A good quantity of 68040 and 68060 CPUs has already arrived in our premises and passed our incoming materials inspection. After a multiple year-long search, we finally have the required quantity of processors to start a design for these fastest members of the M68k processor family.
I remember him teasing a PCB design for a 1200 060 board quite some time ago already on A1k.
Interesting, if he an make it as ground breaking as the old ACA 1230 @ 56Mhz then an 060 version could be very impressive indeed (130 MIPS is possible).
The old Blizzard and Apollo cards were both great for the time but with newer technology there is plenty of scope from improvement.
Would love to see it happen but also concerned about the cost of such a beast.
Not sure why he's even bothering with an 040 version.

So anyone tested the new Indivision ECS V2 yet? Does it store the 50Hz setting properly?
Does it store the 50Hz setting properly?
I know the ECS Denise does not offer too much over the OCS version but does the Indivision ECS require it as the name implies?
If not, does the Indivision ECS benefit from the enhanced Denise in some other way?
The Indie ECS does not require the Super Denise at all.
The Super Denise does not enhance the Indie ECS at all either. As a matter of fact, the Indie ECS output is the same as using a Super Denise. The Super Denise, I believe, only gives additional resolutions when using a 15KHz monitor with it's own output. I had a Super Denise in my A2000 but pulled it out after I installed an Indie ECS as the machine is then using a 30KHz monitor and can't take advantage of the Super Denise. Hmmm, hope that made sense.
Yes, thank you for the info!

Former UL baseball pitcher Farquhar suffers brain hemorrhage during White Sox game
Posted at 11:12 PM, Apr 21, 2018
CHICAGO (AP) – Former UL baseball standout and White Sox reliever Danny Farquhar was in stable but critical condition Saturday, a day after suffering a brain hemorrhage while in the dugout during a game.
Farquhar passed out in the sixth inning Friday night after getting two outs against Houston. He was helped by team medical personnel and on-site EMTs, and regained consciousness before he was taken to a hospital by ambulance.
The White Sox announced that additional testing revealed the brain hemorrhage caused by a ruptured aneurysm. Farquhar was receiving treatment and being closely monitored in the neurosurgical ICU unit at Rush University Medical center.
Manager Rick Renteria met with players before Saturday's game against Houston and updated them on Farquhar's condition. Asked if the right-hander required surgery, Renteria said, "We'll see how they proceed and hopefully the outcome is a positive one."
The team said it will provide updates on Farquhar's health as appropriate, but requested privacy for the family.
The 31-year-old fainted moments after leaving the mound.
Renteria said Saturday that Farquhar "had a strong heartbeat, a good pulse and was breathing well" when he left Guaranteed Rate Field after passing out. Renteria said no one on the team saw advance signs that Farquhar might be suffering from the condition.
Farquhar's diagnosis stunned his teammates.
"Yeah, I mean, it crushes us in this clubhouse," said James Shields, who started Friday's game. "And nothing really matters baseball-wise when something like that happens, you know."
"He's definitely stable from what we hear, but he's got a long way to go and he's fighting," he said.
Houston manager A.J. Hinch said some of his players saw Farquhar collapse.
"We could see across the way that something was going on," he said. "As the group went around him, it just became a scary scene."
"Then this morning getting that update, it's very scary," he said.

Farquhar was selected by Toronto in the 10th round of the 2008 draft and made his major league debut with the Blue Jays in 2011. The right-hander is 10-15 with a 3.93 ERA in 253 career relief appearances with Toronto, Seattle, Tampa Bay and Chicago.
The White Sox put Farquhar on the 10-day disabled list. Right-hander Gregory Infante was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte.

Author : T. David Mason
Download Sustaining the Peace After Civil War PDF Full Free by T. David Mason and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of World War II, there have been four times as many civil wars as interstate wars. For a small subset of nations civil war is a chronic condition: about half of the civil war nations have had at least two and as many as six conflicts. This book presents an analytical framework that has been used to identify a set of factors that make civil war more or less likely to recur in a nation where a civil war has recently terminated. The outcome of the previous civil war--whether it ended in a government victory, a rebel victory or a negotiated settlement--as well as the duration and deadliness of the conflict affect the durability of the peace after civil war. The introduction of peacekeeping forces, investment in economic development and reconstruction, and the establishment of democratic political institutions tailored to the configuration of ethnic and religious cleavages in the society also affect the durability of peace after civil war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines what makes the United States an exceptional society, what impact it has had abroad, and why these issues have mattered to Americans. With historical and comparative evidence, Frank J. Lechner describes the distinctive path of American institutions and tracks changes in the country's national identity in order to assess claims about America's 'exceptional' qualities. The book analyzes several focal points of exceptionalist thinking about America, including the importance of US Constitution and the American sense of mission, and explores several aspects of America's distinctive global impact; for example, in economics and film. In addition to discussing the distinctive global impact of the US, this first volume delves into religion, law, and sports.

This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The refreshed insights into early-imperial Roman historiography this book offers are linked to a recent discovery. In the spring of 2014, the binders of the archive of Robert Marichal were dusted off by the ERC funded project PLATINUM (ERC-StG 2014 n°636983) in response to Tiziano Dorandi's recollections of a series of unpublished notes on Latin texts on papyrus. Among these was an in-progress edition of the Latin rolls from Herculaneum, together with Marichal's intuition that one of them had to be ascribed to a certain 'Annaeus Seneca'. PLATINUM followed the unpublished intuition by Robert Marichal as one path of investigation in its own research and work. Working on the Latin P.Herc. 1067 led to confirm Marichal's intuitions and to go beyond it: P.Herc. 1067 is the only extant direct witness to Seneca the Elder's Historiae. Bringing a new and important chapter of Latin literature arise out of a charred papyrus is significant. The present volume is made up of two complementary sections, each of which contains seven contributions. They are in close dialogue with each other, as looking at the same literary matter from several points of view yields undeniable advantages and represents an innovative and fruitful step in Latin literary criticism. These two sections express the two different but interlinked axes along which the contributions were developed. On one side, the focus is on the starting point of the debate, namely the discovery of the papyrus roll transmitting the Historiae of Seneca the Elder and how such a discovery can be integrated with prior knowledge about this historiographical work. On the other side, there is a broader view on early-imperial Roman historiography, to which the new perspectives opened by the rediscovery of Seneca the Elder's Historiae greatly contribute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henderson (political science, Wayne State U.) uses the same basic research design of the democratic peace proposition (DPP)--which contends that democracies rarely fight each other, are generally more peaceful than nondemocracies, and rarely experience civil war--to challenge the validity of the DPP. His results indicate that democracy is not significantly associated with a decreased likelihood of international war, militarized disputes, or civil wars in postcolonial states. He finds that in war between states and nonstate actors, such as colonial and imperial wars, democracies in general are less likely but Western states, specifically, are more likely to become involved in this type of "extrastate" war. He argues that global peace will require more than a worldwide spread of democracy. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Large fractions (15-40%) of the Arctic and Subarctic land surface are covered by lakes and rivers, e.g. in the Lena Delta in Northern Siberia more than 30%. The timing and duration of ice-onset is a relevant climate signal since it is strongly driven by the air temperature.
Remote sensing provides a means for obtaining regional information in the high Arctic where ground-based data networks are sparse. Space-borne imaging radar is a suitable tool for the detection of freeze processes, as the backscattering of radar waves is highly dependent on the dielectric properties of the surface. As radar operates independently from sunlight and cloud cover, data retrieval is possible on a regular basis. Radar systems can monitor the earth surface at comparatively high spatial resolutions (on the order of 1 to 20 m), which allows to detect small-scale surface characteristics like ice-onset on small lakes and narrow river channels, which are often present in permafrost environments.
For this study, a time series of high resolution TerraSAR-X images was analyzed. The images, recorded during fall and winter 2012, cover several lakes and river channels located in the central Lena Delta, North Siberia, Russia. Images are available every five to six days. After geocoding and multilooking, the pixel size is 13.2 m in azimuth and range direction.
In 2012, ice-on is first visible in the SAR images at October 6th on the lakes and narrow river channels. The main channels of the Lena River were partly ice-free until October 12th and frozen from October, 17th on. These results were achieved via visual inspection by an experienced user. Automatic detection, however, is difficult, as the backscattering intensities are similar for calm water surfaces and thin ice without air inclusions or cracks. Thus the often used threshold-based method might miss the ice-onset. In addition, threshold-based methods can get confused with open water affected by wind, as the radar intensity scattered from a rough water surface at higher wind speeds is larger than the intensity from calm water and similar to the intensity of thicker ice.
A lake or river channel with a thin ice cover might be characterized by low backscattering intensities on average, which is similar to ice-free water bodies, but can show surface features such as thin cracks, displayed by higher backscatter values. These features are clearly detectable via visible inspection. Techniques like edge detection or other gradient-based methods can help to visualize structures within the ice and ice-water boundaries. The presence of strong radar intensity gradients over lakes and rivers can be taken as a signal for the presence of ice.
Later in winter, when the ice thickens and air bubbles, e.g. from methane emissions, are trapped in the ice, or the surface roughens due to break-up and refreeze, these features vanish and the backscatter rises to values close to 0 dB (HH-polarization). The main reflection of the radar waves now occurs at the ice-water boundary. As soon as the ice is frozen to the ground, the backscatter drops again. Thus it is possible to determine from SAR images whether the whole water column is frozen. In the Lena Delta, several lakes and river channels freeze to the ground, whereas others don't. Thus a map partitioning shallow water bodies from deep ones can be established on the base of space-borne SAR observations during winter.


ART:EGO Studio Franchising Our students like our studio so much that more and more they come to me and ask for advice how to launch their own studio. So, I decided to offer a franchise.
-	One filiation of ART:EGO STUDIO brings from UAH 15.000 to UAH 50.000 of net income monthly.
-	The return of investments in one filiation of ART:EGO STUDIO is from 6 to 12 months - which is less that in the other branches.
-	Artists who want to develop themselves and get a permanent monthly income but who don't know how to develop business.
-	Investors who are looking for real sources of monthly passive incomes.
I developed this FRANCHISE specially for these purposes. You can buy it, become our partner and get your own business with a great state of mood in addition to it!

My mother has been telling my brother and me that she will call the doctor tomorrow to schedule her biopsy. She's been telling us this for a week. I've been talking to my brother daily since we've been taking turns calling mom to see if she scheduled her appointment. Every day she tells us she just couldn't make the call. Yesterday my brother told my mother he would make the appointment for her but she promised to call on Tuesday. My brother and I both doubt she will call. My SIL, who is a nurse, talked my mom off the ledge earlier in the week. My mother told me she was relieved after talking to my SIL. Yesterday my SIL had another talk with my mother and told her she can choose to do nothing and wait to see what happens. My mother told me she is so thankful for the SIL's calls. My SIL has the balls to tell my mother what my brother and I can't muster the courage to do. Not knowing has turned my mother into an emotional wreck yet she can't bring herself to call the doctor. She probably knows that she will have to face her deepest fear, dying of cancer.
This is really tough. It's hard to know when to step in. My brother and SIL have been great. My sister on the other hand has been less than helpful and offers no emotional support to my mother. I want to call my sister and rip her a new one but I've accepted the fact she needs professional psychiatric help and it will do no good to go off on her.
Last night K and I were in Tiffany buying a graduation gift. I sent my SIL a charm bracelet to thank her for giving my mother emotional support. My SIL collects charm bracelets so she can add another one to her collection. Plus it makes buying birthday and holiday presents easy. I've continued my tradition of spending money when I don't know what else to do. I have such a hard time with emotions. It's so much easier to send a gift with a card rather than speak directly even when I'm thankful. Perhaps I'm the one that needs a therapist.
K came home last night. He'll be home until Tuesday. He took a vacation day today. He's out working in the yard. I'm working from home today.
Cindi stayed at our house last night. She flew in from Des Moines last night and arrived at our house around 10:30. She left this morning at six to fly to Durango, CO. Her company is doing a wedding on a ranch. The couple will be wed in their hay field on the banks of the Animas River.
We plan on going to the Downtown Arts Festival this weekend. Kate McGuinness, Jean Smith and Kit Karbler and many others will be selling their wares. It should be a lot of fun.
I also want to drag K by the Spark Gallery to see the Madeleine Dodge show.
It's time to get back to work. I have a ton of testing to do.
It's a tough week at work. I'm having a hard time staying focused. I keep thinking about my mother. To make matters worse the end of the development and testing cycle is nearing and everyone is on edge. Everyone is bitchy, men included.
On top of all of this there are major problems with a product that is due to go out the door in two weeks. It has caused havoc at work. I was testing the new product software and asked a peer a question about SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) functionality in relation to the new product. Another peer overheard the conversation and asked to look at the software load I was testing. The code matched the engineering specifications but major problems were discovered. The product manager gave the sales and technical community product information that did not match what the software engineer was given. The product will not perform like the sales and technical community are expecting. There's a huge potential for a product to be shipped that will be under engineered. To make matters even worse the product launch has already been announced globally. There has been a flurry of emails with each party involved trying to blame another party. I'm trying to lay low and stay out of the fray. I hope they remember to not shoot the messenger.
I've been delaying writing this post for almost a week. It's much easier to write about the unimportant things in my life like dinner parties, shopping and gardening.
The day after I returned home from visiting my parents in St. Louis my mother received some unfortunate news from her doctor. The doctor found a nodule on her lungs and she needed to have a CT scan. The nodule was discovered on an x-ray that was taken while she was in the hospital. My mother didn't ask why this wasn't discovered while she was in the hospital. That will remain a mystery. The CT scan revealed two spots on her lungs, one the size of a walnut, the other a little larger. The next step is a biopsy. My mother is scared and is a nervous wreck. She's been crying for days. My mother has always been afraid the she would die from cancer and now it looks like she may have lung cancer. Her fear of cancer never stopped her from smoking. In fact, after being in the hospital for twelve days she started smoking as soon as she was released.
The biopsy has not been scheduled because the preferred doctor has a three month waiting list. Other alternative doctors are being researched. This is all very difficult for my mother. The waiting to know is making her sick. She's not eating and can't sleep.
It's tough to be so far away. Thankfully we had a good visit even though my sister caused some unwanted drama. I will probably be going back more often. My mother is eighty three years old, has a horrible diet and does no physical activity other than light house cleaning. She's not emotionally or physically prepared for cancer treatments. I hope that the spots are not cancer but the reality is that they probably are. It looks like there are some difficult times ahead.
A woman from Neiman Marcus called yesterday to remind me of their upcoming sale and offered me the opportunity to attend the pre-sale event so I could select items before the sale . Perhaps I'm spending too much money on clothes.
Cindi came over for dinner last night. I fixed roasted shrimp salad, cod with artichokes and chickpeas and banana cupcakes with peanut butter frosting for desert. Cindi brought a bottle of wine and made the salad dressing for the salad. It turned out to be a yummy meal. We had a good time catching up on recent events. Cindi, unlike Patty, calls and checks in every week.
After dinner we were sitting on the patio and a heron flew overhead. Not a good sign for the fish in the pond. After Cindi left I went to Home Depot and bought a net to put over the pond. K would be sad if the heron ate his fish while he was away.
It's time to end this post. I have some garden chores that I want to get done today.
I had a great time gallery hopping last night on Santa Fe. My first stop was Kara's gallery, Vertigo, where I found William, a friend from the gym, gallery sitting. Kara had a very interesting show but the pieces were expensive.
My next stop was Spark to check out the Madeleine Dodge show. Madeleine was sharing the main gallery space with Susan Rubin while Sue Simon and Patricia Aaron had a show in the north gallery. All of the art was great but Madeleine's work blew me away. Madeleine's pieces were hand painted abstracts color studies on steel boxes. The muted jewel tone colors were calming and rich but with a hint of excitement. I talked with Madeleine about her technique. She told me all of the pieces were created while she was listening to a CD with the Dalai Lama chanting. I told her I was interested in buying a piece but needed to bring K in to see the show next weekend. Madeleine said she would bring the pieces by our house after the show closed so we could see which ones worked best. She also said she wanted to see the piece K commissioned hanging on the wall. We made tentative plans for Madeleine to come over for lunch or dinner. Sue Simon's work was stellar as usual. Sue and I chatted for a while about her work. There were a few pieces I would like to have but I would rather have one of Madeleine's. Perhaps K will buy one on Sue's join the others he has hanging in his office.
I stopped by many of the other galleries and saw some great art and some not so great art. I ran into Dana Cain, a local art event promoter, who told me to check out the show at Kanon Gallery and to stop by the VSA benefit show at Access Gallery. I loved the Jeff Erwine sculptures at Kanyon. I found two pieces that would be great to have in the garden. I also stopped by the benefit and bought a small Mark Friday piece. VSA arts of Colorado is creating a world where people with disabilities have the opportunity to learn through, participate in, and enjoy the arts. I couldn't take the Mark Friday piece home until 8:45 so I went back to Spark to look at Madeleine's work again. I ran into Jean Smith, another favorite artist, who told me Mark Friday was having a show down the street. I picked up my piece at the benefit and then checked out the Mark Friday show. Mark was a sharing the space with Deborah Jang, a sculptor whose work I first saw at the Ice Cube gallery last year. I told Mark I bought his piece at the benefit down the street but didn't know about his show at the time. They both had some great pieces.
It was time to call it a night. I went home and hung the Mark Friday piece and a Sue Simon piece I bought at the same benefit two years ago in the family room. They are the same size and look great together. I watched the final episode of the Pacific on demand the then went to bed. It was a fun night. I only wish K was home to share it with me.
I had dinner at Tom and Sheila's last night. Our mutual friend, Don G, was there too. We looked pictures of their recent trip to Lima, Bogota, and the Galápagos Islands. The pictures of Machu Pichu were so beautiful. Sheila was sporting new turquoise and silver jewelry she picked up on the trip. Sheila served the most wonderful crab enchiladas with blue corn tortillas.
I hadn't seen Ferdinand since last Friday when I was leaving for St. Louis. Crazy Barb told me he had come over for breakfast a few times. She agreed to put him in the garage and lock the pet door if she saw him. Last night when I came home from work he was sitting in his bed in the garage. Crazy Barb had given Ferdinand a piece of sausage from McDonalds to enjoy. He was probably staying at a neighbor's house. I went to PetSmart to buy him his sixth collar and ID tag.
K comes home next Thursday. He's been away for five weeks. He'll be home for four days and then goes back to Missouri for a few more weeks.
It's been a rough week at work. It seems like all I do is reject the software loads. It's as if the developers are not even trying to write the code correctly. I was exhausted when I got home last night. I took a half hour nap before going to Tom and Sheila's for dinner.
There seems to be an explosion of houses for sale in our neighborhood. 5280 magazine listed our neighborhood as one of the best places to live in Denver. House prices appreciated 8% last year.

The best wildlife photos of the year remind us that nature is amazing—and brutal
Indulge in the top picks from the London Natural History Museum's annual photography exhibit.
By PopSci Editors | Published Sep 11, 2019 8:40 PM
There are millions and millions of species on our planet and just as many opportunities to photograph them. But it still takes expertise, persistence, and a fair bit of chance to get the one shot that teaches us something new about the world of plants and animals. These extraordinary selections from the London Natural History Museum's Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition speak to those skills—and give us an illuminating peek at nature's many mysteries and complexities. Check back on the museum's website on October 15 for the final list of winners.
Last gasp Adrian Hirschi, Switzerland
Highly Commended 2019, Behavior: Mammals
Nikon D750 + 400mm f2.8 lens; 1/2000 sec at f6.3 (-0.7 e/v); ISO 640; Gitzo monopod
A newborn hippo, just days old, was keeping close to its mother in the shallows of Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe, when a large bull suddenly made a beeline for them. He chased the mother, then seized the calf in his huge gape, clearly intent on killing it. After trying to drown it, he tried to crush it to death. Adrian's fast reaction and fast exposure captured the shocking drama. Infanticide among hippos is rare but may result from the stress caused through overcrowding when their day-resting pools dry out.
The freshwater forest Michel Roggo, Switzerland
Highly Commended 2019, Plants and Fungi
Sony α7R + 16–35mm f4 lens at 16mm; 1/40 sec at f8; ISO 200; Nauticam housing
Slender stems of native Eurasian watermilfoil, bearing whorls of soft, feathery leaves, reach for the sky from the bed of Lake Neuchâtel, Switzerland. Michel has photographed freshwater regions worldwide, but this was the first time he had dived in the lake nearest to his home. He was swimming near the surface—absorbed with the beauty of the plants and their small reddish flowers—when he spotted a huge pike disappearing into the mass of vegetation below. Very slowly, he sank down for a closer look. When he reached the bottom, he found himself immersed in an underwater jungle with an endless view."
If penguins could fly Eduardo Del Álamo, Spain
Canon EOS 7D Mark II + 100–400mm f4.5–5.6 lens at 110mm; 1/2500 sec at f10; ISO 1000
A gentoo penguin—the fastest underwater swimmer of all penguins—flees for its life as a leopard seal bursts out of the water. Eduardo was expecting it. He had spotted the penguin, resting on a fragment of broken ice. As Eduardo's inflatable headed towards the penguin, the seal passed directly beneath the boat. Moments later, it surged out of the water, mouth open. The penguin made it off the ice, but the seal now seemed to turn the hunt into a game.
Big cat and dog spat Peter Haygarth, UK
Nikon D4S + 400mm f2.8 lens; 1/640 sec at f5; ISO 800
In a rare encounter, a lone male cheetah is set upon by a pack of African wild dogs. Peter had been following the dogs by vehicle as they hunted in Zimanga Private Game Reserve, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. A warthog had just escaped the pack when the leading dogs came across the big cat. At first, the dogs were wary, but as the rest of the 12-strong pack arrived, their confidence grew, and they began to encircle the cat, chirping with excitement. In a few minutes the spat was over as the cheetah fled.
The hair-net cocoon Minghui Yuan, China
Highly Commended 2019, Behavior: Invertebrates
Nikon D500 + 85mm f3.5 lens; 1/50 sec at f29 (+2 e/v); ISO 640
Standing side-on to a wall, his face and camera pressed against it, Minghui focused on the remarkable cocoon of a Cyna moth pupa. The caterpillar had used its long, hair-like setae to weave the delicate cocoon cage, held with silk and just 1.5 inches long, inside which it would pupate. The cage has an aperture at either end, through which the caterpillar expels its outer layer after its final molt and then—once it has reorganized its body—emerges from the top as a beautiful white moth, decorated in red and black.
Canopy hangout Carlos Pérez Naval, Spain
Highly Commended 2019, Young Wildlife Photographers: 11-14 years old
Nikon D700 + 28–300mm f3.5–5.6 lens at 45mm; 1/125 sec at f10; ISO 1600
When Carlos's family planned a trip to Panama's Soberanía National Park, sloths were high on their must-see agenda. They were not disappointed. For several days, from the observation deck of the park's canopy tower, Carlos could photograph not only birds but also this brown-throated three-toed sloth—the orange fur and the dark stripe on its back marking it as an adult male. By deliberately placing the animal in one part of the frame, Carlos also captured the atmosphere of the forest—"the sloth in its environment."
Touching trust Thomas P. Peschak, Germany/South Africa
Highly Commended 2019, Wildlife Photojournalism
Nikon D3S + 16mm f2.8 lens; 1/400 sec at f9; ISO 1250; Subal housing
A curious young grey whale approaches a pair of hands reaching down from a tourist boat. In San Ignacio Lagoon, on the coast of Mexico's Baja California, baby grey whales and their mothers actively seek contact with people for a head scratch or back rub. The lagoon is one of three that comprise a grey whale nursery and sanctuary—a key winter breeding ground for this surviving breeding population of grey whales, the eastern North Pacific ones. For Tom Peschak, a whale that demanded petting and got too close for him to focus was a first.
Beach waste Matthew Ware, USA
Canon EOS 700D + 18–55mm f3.5–5.6 lens at 18mm; 1/1250 sec at f4.5; ISO 100
From a distance, the beach scene at Alabama's Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge looked appealing: blue sky, soft sand, and a Kemp's ridley sea turtle. But as Matthew and the strandings patrol team got closer they could see the fatal noose around the turtle's neck attached to the washed-up beach chair. The Kemp's ridley is not only one of the smallest sea turtles—just two feet long—it is also the most endangered. As Matthew witnesses on his daily nesting patrol, a danger is injury or drowning resulting from discarded fishing gear and rubbish.
The wall of shame Jo-Anne McArthur, Canada
Nikon D800 + 17–35mm f2.8 lens; 1/250 sec at f3.2 (+0.3 e/v); ISO 2000
Pinned to a white wall are the skins of rattlesnakes. Surrounding them are signed bloody handprints—triumphant marks of those who have skinned snakes at the annual rattlesnake round-up in Sweetwater, Texas. Each year tens of thousands of rattlesnakes are caught for this four‑day festival. They are kept in poor conditions before being brought to the festival and tossed into snake pits. What Jo-Anne found most unsettling about this image was "that so many of the bloodied handprints belonged to children."
Sleeping like a Weddell Ralf Schneider
Highly Commended 2019, Black and White
Canon EOS 7D Mark II + 100–400mm f4.5–5.6 lens at 400mm; 1/500 sec at f8; ISO 400
Hugging its flippers tight to its body, the Weddell seal closed its eyes and appeared to fall into a deep sleep. Lying on fast ice (ice attached to land) off Larsen Harbour, South Georgia, it was relatively safe from its predators and so could completely relax and digest. Shooting from an inflatable boat, Ralf tightly framed the sleeping seal, using the white backdrop of ice and soft light from the overcast sky to mimic the effect of a studio portrait. Converting his image to black and white accentuated the tones and textures of the seal's dense mottled fur.
Lucky break Jason Bantle, Canada
Highly Commended 2019, Urban Wildlife
Nikon D810 + 70–200mm f2.8 lens at 145mm + polarizing filter; 0.4 sec at f2.8 (-0.7 e/v); ISO 800; cable release; Gitzo tripod + Wimberley head; hide
An ever-adaptable raccoon pokes her bandit-masked face out of a 1970s Ford Pinto on a deserted farm in Saskatchewan, Canada. In the back seat, her five playful kits trill with excitement. It was a sentiment shared by Jason, waiting silently in a nearby hide, who had been hoping for this chance every summer for several years. The only access into the car was through the small hole in the cracked safety glass of the windscreen. The gap was blunt‑edged but too narrow a fit for a coyote, making this an ideal place for a mother raccoon to raise a family.
Jelly baby Fabien Michenet, France
Highly Commended 2019, Under Water
Nikon D810 + 60mm f2.8 lens; 1/320 sec at f22; ISO 64; Nauticam housing; Inon Z-240 strobes
A juvenile jackfish peers out from inside a small jellyfish off Tahiti in French Polynesia. With nowhere to hide in the open ocean, it has adopted the jelly as an overnight travelling shelter, slipping under the umbrella and possibly immune to the stinging tentacles, which deter potential predators. In hundreds of night dives, says Fabien, "I've never seen one without the other." It is not clear if a jelly derives any benefit or why the relationship breaks down when water acidifies.
The climbing dead Frank Deschandol
Canon EOS 5D Mark II + 100mm f2.8 lens; 1 sec at f5.6; ISO 100; Triopo tripod + Feisol head
On a nightime field trip in the Peruvian Amazon rainforest, Frank spotted this bizarre-looking weevil clinging to a fern stem. Its glazed eyes showed it was dead, and the three antennae-like projections growing out of its thorax were the ripe fruiting bodies of a "zombie fungus." Spreading inside the weevil while it was alive, the parasitic fungus had taken control of its muscles and compelled it to climb. The fungus then started to grow fruiting bodies topped by capsules that would release a multitude of tiny spores to infect new prey. Shooting the weevil head on, Frank isolated the fungus against a soft background to emphasize the capsules.
Cool drink Diana Rebman, USA
Highly Commended 2019, Behaviour: Birds
Nikon D500 + 300mm f2.8 lens + 1.7x teleconverter; 1/1600 sec at f8 (+0.3 e/v); ISO 1600; cable release; Gitzo tripod + Mongoose head
On a bitterly cold morning on the Japanese island of Hokkaido, Diana came across a delightful scene. A flock of long-tailed tits and marsh tits were gathered around a long icicle hanging from a branch, taking turns to nibble the tip. Two days later, Diana returned and found that the icicle remained and tits were still drinking from it. But when the sun came out and the ice began to melt, one long‑tailed tit chose to cling to the icicle instead of hovering. That instantly brought the performance to an end, as the entire structure cracked and then crashed to the ground.
Circle of life Alex Mustard, UK
Nikon D850 + 28–70mm f3.5–4.5 lens at 31mm + Nauticam Wide Angle Conversion Port; 1/60 sec at f11; ISO 500; Subal housing; two Seacam Seaflash 150D strobes
In the clear water of the Red Sea, a shoal of bigeye trevally circle 80 feet down at the edge of the reef. For the past 20 years Alex has travelled here, to Ras Mohammad—a national park at the tip of Egypt's Sinai Peninsula—to photograph the summer-spawning aggregations of reef fish. This time, it was the high numbers of bigeye trevally. Their circling behavior is a dating exercise prior to pairing up, though it also deters predators. Alex captured the shape of the shoal against the deep blue water below, the iridescent angled fish reflecting the light from the sun and his strobes.


Uses Of Industrial Safety Gates It is necessary to have multiple items in order to run an industry.One of the most important necessities in this respect is safety.You need to keep not only your employees but also your equipment safe from harm in terms of fall prevention and protection from mechanical injury.The best way to achieve this is to install safety gates and doors that will restrict the access of employees to areas that are highly risky.Several types and design of gates exist for different purposes.The one you choose will be determined by diverse variables such as working are space and dimensions, cost of installation as well as the level of risk involved.Below are the types of gates and where they can be applied. This gate variety's normally operated by power and they have the ability to open, close and lock on their own.The power is used in driving the motors and gears that do the actual closing and opening of the doors.They are usually are best suited for high risk working areas to limit the access of most of the employees.As soon as someone has passed through them, they close immediately so as to restrict access.They are constructed from strong material such as galvanized or carbon steel to ensure that they are strong and durable. These are made of two individual doors that have the capability to swing in the inward and outward directionSafety is facilitated during emergency by either pushing or pulling the door in either direction in order for one to run to a safe place.
High-risk and high-security premises normally require revolving gates or doors.The doors are made in such a way that the two or more intersecting panels that hang on the central shaft can rotate on a vertical axis.Since such doors are adjustable, they can be used to restrict entry and exit to only one person at a time, thereby increasing safety and security.This makes them suitable for use in banks and airports.
They are constructed from either wood or metal.They are used as people traffic controls in a working area.The are used to reduces instances of people falling on staircases as well as entry and exit points to working areas.When compared to the wooden ones, metallic pedestrian barriers are stronger and more durable, and can be released easily as well. Mezzanine safety gates are recommended for loading and offloading zones.Since this is a high-risk environment,the gates are high safety type.They are made in a way that ensures that all the personnel in the working area are safe. The type of safety gate chosen will ultimately depend on its purpose and the diverse conditions of the work place.


While the events Sexton described are bizarre considering the circumstances and the seriousness of the issue, this is a common frustration in the age of the Internet. Whether it is Twitter, Facebook or Email blasts, sources and officials have new ways to communicate directly with the public that work around journalists. The frustration of working on a story only to have the information released by one of the sources themselves is all to real and increasingly common.

Society for sanity in art
Founded in Chicago by Josephine Hancock Logan in 1936, the Society for Sanity in Art was opposed to all forms of modernism, including abstract expressionism, surrealism, and many other changes going on in the world at that time. Branches of the group established themselves all around the country. Haig Patigian, a San Francisco sculptor and member of that city???s Bohemian Club, was an influential supporter of the Society and served as its president in the 1940s. Other artists associated with the group, or recipients of its awards were: William Winthrop Ward (1901-1985); Florence Louise Bryant (1890-1968); Henry (Percy) Gray (1869-1952); Rudolph F. Ingerle (1879-1950); Frank Montague Moore (1877-1967); Thomas Hill (1829-1908); Frank C. Peyraud (1858-1948); Theodore Wores (1859-1939); and Chauncey Foster Ryder (1868-1949). Margaret Fitzhugh Browne founded the local chapter of the Society for Sanity in Art in Boston. Some current societies of artists had their origins with the Society for Sanity in Art. California painter Sam Hyde Harris (1889-1977) during the 1940s was strongly aligned with a group of artists who disparaged aspects of the modern art movement, and they formed a chapter of the organization, later to be renamed Artists of the Southwest. In 1939, a western branch of the Society for Sanity in Art changed its name to the Society of Artists, and later to the Society of Western Artists (SWA), which was eventually to become the largest representational art society west of the Mississippi.

Ice Dam Removal Minnesota St Paul Alexander Home Exteriors is a Minnesota snow and ice removal company serving the greater St Paul and Minneapolis metropolitan area. Ice dams can cause major damage to your homes interior if left ignored. You could end up replacing stained carpet, wet insulation, trim moldings, damaged sheetrock, and possibly moldy sheathing. This could cost you literally thousands of dollars.
It is much easier and far less costly to stop ice dams before they begin. Snow removal is one of the best ways to keep ice dams from developing, but if an ice dam has already developed you may contact us to remove your ice dam before it gets worse. We typically use steamers to remove of ice dams because it will not damage the roof shingles. On average, we can remove about ten lineal feet of an ice dam per hour.
If ice dams are removed by steaming without removing the rest of the snow from the roof you could end up with a recurring ice dam problem. In addition to this, snow removal reduces stressful loads from your roof trusses and allows the attic vents to breathe properly.
According to the University of Minnesota, there is a complex interaction among the amount of heat loss from a house, snow cover, and outside temperatures that leads to ice dam formation. For ice dams to form there must be snow on the roof, and, at the same time, higher portions of the roofs outside surface must be above 32°F while lower surfaces are below 32°F. For a portion of the roof to be below 32°F, outside temperatures must also be below 32°F. When we say temperatures above or below 32°F, we are talking about average temperature over sustained periods of time.
The snow on a roof surface that is above 32°F will melt. As water flows down the roof it reaches the portion of the roof that is below 32°F and freezes. Voila!—an ice dam. It is important to protect your roof and hire a St Paul Ice Dam Removal contractor with the experience that matters.

« Fullerton Community Attends Special Trustee Meeting to Support Saving the Hunt Branch Library
Doug Chaffee's Misleading Campaign Mailer Prompts Clarifying Statement by Friends of Coyote Hills »
Fullerton City Council Approves Formation of Ad-Hoc Committee to Study Future of Hunt Branch Library
June 1, 2018 //
On May 15 the Fullerton City Council voted to form Library Ad-Hoc Committee to consider recommendations to explore future uses of the Hunt Branch Library. The library is currently closed, and leased out to neighboring Grace Ministries on a month-to-month basis. Although the Library Board of Trustees seems generally to favor retaining the Hunt as a city facility, opinions on that board differ about what can, and should, be done with it. The City Council is more sharply divided, with two members, Bruce Whitaker and Jesus Silva, voicing support for keeping it in city hands, while Mayor Doug Chaffee has openly advocated selling it. His position is evidently shared by Council member Jennifer Fitzgerald, who was quoted in a May 24 OC Register story as speculating that a sale of the property could help fund library services on the east side of the city. Mayor Pro Tem Greg Sebourn remains uncommitted on the matter. Although some of his comments in the recent meeting could be taken as encouraging by anyone advocating for the Hunt to remain a city asset, he has not ruled out a sale.
Formation of the ad-hoc committee was ultimately approved on a 4-0 vote during the May 15 meeting (Jennifer Fitzgerald absent), but only after extensive discussion by the council. The city staff report proposed a committee of seven that would include two members of the city council, but just one library trustee, in addition to one member each from the Fullerton Parks and Recreation Commission, Fullerton Heritage, and the Fullerton Planning Commission, and the Fullerton Public Library Foundation*. Council member Jesus Silva, who had suggested establishing the committee at an earlier meeting of the City Council, objected to populating the ad-hoc with "a lot of 'inside players,'" and suggested expanding it to "include some members of the surrounding community" because they would ultimately be most affected by whatever plans were eventually made for the property. Mr. Silva also said he wanted to include representatives from "cultural and educational organizations to see if we can really generate some ideas," referring to the possible use of the Hunt as a center for cultural and education programming.
Council member Bruce Whitaker agreed, saying that it was "time to step back and take a wider view as to what the beneficial use of this city-owned property might be over time. And that would be the effort of the ad-hoc committee—to bring people who are creative and who might help forge partnerships that would allow us to renew that facility in a part of town where we need that, where we don't have much in the way of city facilities."
Mr. Silva suggested reducing the number of city councilors on the ad-hoc to one, and adding a member of the elementary school district board, another library trustee, and members of the public. Mayor Chaffee objected to including any library trustees at all, stating "I hear way too much bias when I listen to that group."
Mayor Pro Tem Greg Sebourn called the ad-hoc an opportunity for "getting the community engaged." He supported including a mix of public members, and didn't see the need to include a member of the city council. His motion to get the committee started by having each member of the council simply appoint a person of his or her choice was the plan eventually adopted at the meeting. These five initial appointments are expected to be announced at the June 3 meeting of the city council. Library Director Judy Booth will be included as an ex-officio member.
Once convened, the new ad-hoc will appoint four additional members. A link is present on the city's website for applications for the committee, but does not yet lead to an actual application. Interested parties are encouraged to call or email the City Clerk's office to find out how to apply at (714) 738-6350 or CityClerksOffice@cityoffullerton.com.
Though not technically required to do so, the new ad-hoc will proceed in accordance with the Brown Act, announcing meetings in advance, and open them to the public, and keep minutes. Rather than the sixty days recommended by city staff, the committee will continue for at least ninety days. During this time City Manager Ken Domer will contact "educational and cultural arts organizations interested in utilizing the property" in advance of an anticipated City Council Study Session later this year.
Some of the many members of the public who spoke to the issue that night didn't see the need for the formation of an ad-hoc committee at all. Elizabeth Gibbs recalled that another such committee had already existed five years ago, whose recommendations had been adopted by the Fullerton Library Board of Trustees. Others agreed that the trustees themselves were the appropriate body to explore options for the Hunt, but Mayor Chaffee characterized the Hunt as "a building owned by the city without any purpose or restriction on it,"
Area resident Maria Hernandez recalled visiting the Hunt Branch Library frequently with her children, and told the council that if they "converted Hunt Branch library into a cultural center, (they) would be creating jobs, family activities, and come to the rescue of a historic site…"
Library Trustee Ryan Cantor, who was himself a member of original 2012 ad-hoc committee, took issue with the agenda item's reference to the Hunt as a "former library," as did current Fullerton Library Board of Trustees President Sean Paden. "It's not the former library, it is the library. It's closed, but it's still our library," said Mr. Paden. In response, the city council agreed not to refer to the Hunt Branch in those terms from that point forward. Trustee Cantor recommended issuing Requests for Proposals from interested community groups who might be able to provide funding and/or programming for the Hunt, something also discussed during Library Board meetings.
Nine days later the Library Board itself considered several items regarding the Hunt during their regular May meeting. Rather than meeting in the small boardroom in the west part of the building, the May 24 meeting was held in the Main Library's Osbourn Auditorium to accommodate the unusual presence of nearly forty public observers. The trustees adopted a document intended to "Define the Intent of the Gift of the Hunt Library."
As requested in their previous Special Meeting of May 5, a representative from the office of the City Attorney was present in the person of Deputy City Attorney Kim Barlow for consultation about legal actions the trustees might choose to take over any proposed sale of the Hunt. Ms. Barlow promised to respond to questions in a confidential email to the trustees.
*The Fullerton Public Library Foundation is a non-profit that raises supplemental funds for specific library projects, and is distinct from the Fullerton Public Library Board of Trustees, and from the Friends of the Fullerton Public Library who organize periodic book sales and operate the library's book store.

My favorite technique is forging - - it still amazes me that with a simple hammer and anvil, wire or sheet metal can be turned into beautiful three dimensional forms! For me, the sense of relaxed precision, tool marks, and rich metal colors are what make my work stand out. Someone told me my work has an eggshell quality - - and I like that idea. Although there is thinness and lightness there is also strength. Stones are sometimes used but rarely become the focal point of the piece.

I'm a DD, so you will find my packages in Debian and in derived distributions (i.e. in Ubuntu).
The section Debian describe the packages I maintains and some developer informations about my packaging procedures.
I'm a long term reader of lkml.org. I'm interested in configuration and building procedures.
In kernel, I created tools to create a database which link hardware to kernel configuration: the Linux Kernel Driver DataBase, and a prototype of kernel autoconfiguration: the autokernconf.
I created a powerfull sitemap.xml generator: gen-sitemap, to help generating and handling sitemaps. Sitemaps are file used by searching engines, to optimize (relative priorities and frequencies) the scanning of a site.

Q: JSON data displayed but table not drawn (using Datables - server side processing) I am using Yajra's DataTables server side processing. I can see the JSON data but the table is not being populated.
I managed to get DataTables working with client side processing, but as I will eventually have > 50,000 rows of data, I decided to try and implement server side processing by downloading Yajra's DataTables for Laravel 5.8.
When I call my route, I see the data in a JSON format, but I am not seeing the table at all. It says "draw: 0", so I guess there is an issue with drawing the table?
I have tried various solutions mentioned on stack overflow and the official DataTables website, however none seem to work for me. E.g.
- DataTables json is not processed (in Laravel)
- jQuery Datatables - Table not populated for Ajax response
- https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/45444/populate-table-body-with-ajax
The JSON data that I see when I call my route is as follows:

{
  "draw": 0,
  "recordsTotal": 3,
  "recordsFiltered": 3,
  "data": [

    {
      "id": "1",
      "customerNr": "98764",
      "orderNr": "23478",
      "pallet_id": "66788",
      "status_id": "2",
      "created_by": "Sara",
      "created_at": "04 Jul 2019",
      "updated_at": "2019-07-09 07:23:20"
    },
    {
      "id": "2",
      "customerNr": "99999",
      "orderNr": "22222",
      "pallet_id": "22335",
      "status_id": "1",
      "created_by": "Sophie",
      "created_at": "04 Jul 2019",
      "updated_at": "2019-07-04 08:26:28"
    },
    {
      "id": "3",
      "customerNr": "54657",
      "orderNr": "89856",
      "pallet_id": "11228",
      "status_id": "1",
      "created_by": "Markus",
      "created_at": "08 Jul 2019",
      "updated_at": "2019-07-08 06:59:42"
    },

  ],
  "input": []
}

Here are the relevant files from my Laravel project:
web.php:
Route::get('returned-shipment', ['uses'=>'ReturnedShipmentController@index', 'as'=>'returned-shipment.index']);

ReturnedShipmentController:
public function index(
{
   return DataTables::of(ReturnedShipment::all())->make();
}

index.blade.php:

                Retourennummer
                Auftragsnummer
                Datum
                Zustand

                Retourennummer
                Auftragsnummer
                Datum
                Zustand

I am expecting to see the table being populated with the data.
If I need to provide any more code or explain something further, please don't hesitate to ask. I am quite new to Laravel and DataTables, so I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance! :)

A: I have checked your current code and checked your JSON. Your JSON file seems to be invalid.

{
  "draw": 0,
  "recordsTotal": 3,
  "recordsFiltered": 3,
  "data": [

    {
      "id": "1",
      "customerNr": "98764",
      "orderNr": "23478",
      "pallet_id": "66788",
      "status_id": "2",
      "created_by": "Sara",
      "created_at": "04 Jul 2019",
      "updated_at": "2019-07-09 07:23:20"
    },
    {
      "id": "2",
      "customerNr": "99999",
      "orderNr": "22222",
      "pallet_id": "22335",
      "status_id": "1",
      "created_by": "Sophie",
      "created_at": "04 Jul 2019",
      "updated_at": "2019-07-04 08:26:28"
    },
    {
      "id": "3",
      "customerNr": "54657",
      "orderNr": "89856",
      "pallet_id": "11228",
      "status_id": "1",
      "created_by": "Markus",
      "created_at": "08 Jul 2019",
      "updated_at": "2019-07-08 06:59:42"
    }
  ],
  "input": []
}

This is the correct format. The comma after the last object in your data array needs to be removed. Can you confirm this solves your issue? I got datatables working without this comma.
