Given that there are a number of options when it comes to roofing materials for commercial and residential buildings, you might be wondering how today's modern insulated roof panels measure up to the most popular alternatives. We don't have the space to publish an exhaustive treatise on the matter, but hope that the facts contained in this short guide will be of some use to those who are currently weighing up the options for a new building.
There are a number of alternatives from which to choose when constructing a new residence or industrial building but we will confine ourselves to those most commonly used, for the sake of brevity.
Asphalt Shingles – A popular choice for both residential and commercial properties, asphalt shingles are undoubtedly cheaper than any type of quality metal roofing panels that you can purchase in Canada at the moment, with or without integral insulation. However, the initial cost savings come at a price. Compared to insulated metal roof panels in Canada, asphalt shingles are less attractive, less durable, and less efficient as far as thermal insulation is concerned.
Concrete – While concrete can prove to be a cost effective alternative in certain types of buildings, and offers quite good thermal insulation, it is some 20 times heavier than metal panels. Because of this, much more money has to be spent on reinforcing the rest of the building when choosing a concrete roof. If you are looking for durable, thermally efficient and economical roofing materials, insulated metal panels are a much better option.
Uninsulated Metal Panels – Standard metal roofing panels are popular, owing to their durability, lightweight design and ease of installation. However, they offer little in the way of thermal insulation, as you can imagine, so for those individuals and organisations who wish to use energy efficient building materials, insulated metal roof panels in Canada are a far superior choice.
Installing insulated metal panels is a possibility that is well worth considering, not just for the energy efficiency and durability factors mentioned above, but also because they are easy to install and when mineral fiber is the insulation material of choice, they form an excellent, fire resistant barrier.

In the 1930s, prizefighter Joe Louis emerged as the nation's first African American sports hero. Born Joseph Louis Barrow in Alabama, the "Brown Bomber" held one of boxing's most impressive career records: seventy-one fights, sixty-eight wins, and fifty-four knockouts. However, his greatest achievement was his universal popularity despite America's racial divide.
Louis became a national hero with his 1938 victory over German Max Schmeling (1905–). Their fight was one of the most celebrated events in boxing history. The fight came to symbolize the political conflicts between the United States and Nazi Germany (though Schmeling was not a Nazi). Louis was soon the world's most famous black man and was a source of pride to millions of African Americans. Whites also responded to the champ's appealing personality and admired him for postponing his career to enlist in the army during World War II (1939–45). Louis held the world heavyweight championship from 1939 until 1949, when he retired. Louis's later years were plagued with drug abuse and financial problems. Still, he is remembered as a boxing legend and an early pioneer in the civil rights movement (see entry under 1960s—The Way We Lived in volume 4).

ctober the 9th marked the capsule launch of Noble Elizabeth, the first line from one of Dallas' newest designers Adrienne Sparkman Hall. Adrienne, whose prominent Dallas family has made many historical contributions to the city, was influenced early on by the classic and affluent style of her grandmothers Audrey Noble Hawn and Elizabeth Higginbotham McKee who were the corner stone of inspiration for the Noble Elizabeth line. Their influence could easily be seen this Wednesday as the models descended the staircase of Aldredge House and took their place on individual stands for a presentational style fashion show.
The presentation consisted of three rounds, each round spotlighting a different set of outfits from the Noble Elizabeth line. The pieces mixed feminine cuts with strong yet graceful patterns and luxurious fabrics that made you want to go up and feel the various dresses, shirts and pants, which guests were encouraged to do. Details such as gloves and accessories from Bohem Unique Gems added classic sophistication to the overall outfits and made me hopeful that gloves will once again be in the daily fashion repertoire of stylish ladies everywhere.
As a new designer Adrienne is just getting started and she's starting off strong. With a line that allows for every day wear in our present time but still retains the classic elegance of past generations, I'm looking forward to seeing what she creates in the future for the Dallas woman who's goal is to feel confident and look classy.
After the show I got a chance to talk to Adrienne about her intricate family history, grandmothers' best fashion advice and what it was like planning and executing her first fashion show.
1.Your capsule launch was held at the Aldredge House on Swiss Ave. Your family has contributed a lot to the development of Dallas and were involved in building many of the structures on Swiss Avenue, tell us a little about your family history and what you hope to bring to Dallas with your designs.
My Great, Great Grandfather Joseph M. Higginbotham started the main wholesale distribution company in Texas; Higginbotham- Bailey and Higginbotham-Pearlstone. HB is located in downtown Dallas and is now known as Founders Square. HP is located in the West End and is know now as Market City Place. Both of these building were warehouses used to sell wholesale soft/hard goods throughout Texas. Rufus Higginbotham (my great grandfather) continued running the business until 1983. Rufus built a home for his family about one block down from the Aldridge House; 5002 Swiss Avenue this is the home that my grandmother Elizabeth grew up in. Elizabeth Higginbotham married Bill Sparkman of the Sparkman Funeral home in Dallas. The original Sparkman funeral home was the Belo Mansion on Ross Avenue, which was the location where Bonnie and Clyde Barrel were brought after being shot to death. The funeral home was later moved to the location that Dallas knows of today; Sparkman Hillcrest on Northwest Hwy. Elizabeth divorced my grandfather Bill Sparkman and became Elizabeth Higginbotham Mckee.
Audrey Noble Hawn, my other grandmother, also comes from a successful Dallas family and was also an SMU beauty! As you can tell there is a lot of family history that I am very proud of and I could go on forever but in a more simplified version of what I have written above is that a fun way to think of my heritage is kind of like "royalty"; old successful Texas families who married!
The inspiration of Noble Elizabeth comes from two influential women in my life, Audrey Noble Hawn and Elizabeth Higginbotham McKee, my grandmothers. These women had an amazing taste for high-end fashion that was both timeless and distinct. Audrey's wardrobe had a very elegant tailored look with unique stylized lines, while Elizabeth's wardrobe was slightly audacious in spirit, full of bold colors and relaxed fits. Together, these looks define and market to the women who are in love with designer fashion that includes posh detailing and luxurious fabrics. As the designer of Noble Elizabeth I want to bring a creative vision to the brand through femininity and sophistication while preserving tradition and luxury. I hope that Noble Elizabeth brings women confidence, beauty and excitement!
2. You graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design with a BFA in fashion design and minor in fibers, was fashion design something you had always wanted to pursue or did you have other interests that led you to it?
Not only did I grow up in a small town in East Texas (Athens) but I was also homeschooled. I never really had to deal with the daily pressures of "what was trendy or not" in fashion. It wasn't until I turned 15 that my grandmother Audrey "Noble" gave me my very first subscription to Vogue magazine. Around that time I started asking questions about fashion design and later discovered that I could actually attend fashion design school. Audrey and Elizabeth were constantly keeping me stimulated with fashion whether it was through watching classic black and white films or flipping through the latest Neiman Marcus catalog. I have always painted and enjoyed creating art; by the age of 17 I started illustrating my own designs and learning how to sew on my grandmother's 1958 singer (capitalize) sewing machine! I have always been passionate about fashion and I have never wanted to pursue anything else. Fashion keeps me excited and happy.
3. You spent time in Paris, Milan and Barcelona after graduating, what did you take away from that experience in terms of inspiration and learning more about design?
During my time at SCAD, I studied abroad in Europe and the experience was amazing! I lived in a medieval village within the southern province region of France called Lacoste. I traveled to the three fashion capitals of Europe: Paris, Milan and Barcelona. I had the opportunity to tour the Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) foundation, visit several different trade shows such as Bread and Butter Barcelona and Pret and Porter Paris and attend several high-end fashion shows… The main focus while in Europe was learning and understanding the skill of trend forecasting. Now, when I design I use the techniques I learned in Europe and apply them to my creative vision.
4. Audrey Noble Hawn and Elizabeth Higginbotham McKee, your grandmothers, are the inspiration for you collection, what was it about their style that made such an impression on you? Were there any particular outfits or designers that they would wear that stood out to you? Did they give you any style tips when you were growing up?
Earlier I talked a lot about my grandmother's distinct styles. Audrey was always a loyal shopper to Neiman Marcus; Oscar de la Renta and Channel was what I saw the most in her closet. Audrey was a lover of the dress suit and hourglass silhouettes because she was so petite; that woman never went without a heel on! Elizabeth traveled a lot so the majority of her clothing was from all over; she loved bright fun colors. Elizabeth had a serious passion for costume jewelry, Santa Fe, New Mexico turquoise, sterling silver and Concho belts. If Elizabeth was in love with a garment she would buy it in every color! After both of my Grandmothers passed away I was able to keep amazing pieces that I still use in my wardrobe today. I learned from both women how to combine their different looks and create my own, and how to dress in the most flattering way; no matter what size I am.
5. What are your hopes for the Noble Elizabeth line?
My hope for Noble Elizabeth is that with success the line will have the opportunity to grow and evolve into the spirit of not only my grandmothers but of all women who appreciate timeless fashion.
6. Through your designs you can see that you enjoy a touch of vintage in women's fashion. Do you like seeing that same element in men's fashion as well?
7. How do you feel about your capsule launch and the experience of putting it all together?
Everything has been an amazing experience; school could not have prepared me enough for what I have learned through the process. I am so blessed to be working with such amazing people like Jenny Seide from In Style Exchange who guided me every step of the way! I am very pleased with the line and the launch was amazing. Dallas is a wonderful place to grow in the fashion industry!
8. When women are getting dressed in the morning what is something you feel they should always keep in mind?
Being well-dressed influences other people to see you as competent, capable, and smart, as well as helping you feel more confident about yourself. Keeping color and fit in mind start with the basics and build. Once you have that, begin to build with accessories. As Coco Chanel once said "Get yourself fully dressed and then, before walking out the front door, pause by the mirror and remove one item." Remember confidence. It's the most important thing a woman can have. Keep a smile on your face; and always keep your chin up and look straightforward when you are walking.
9. If you could go back in time and raid anyone's closet whose closet would it be?
Without any doubt it would be Coco Chanel!!!

RUSSELL, Hon. Edward (c.1642-1714).

Mar. 1679 - Mar. 1681
Feb. 1701 - 1702
b. c.1642, 4th but 1st surv. s. of Sir William Russell†, 5th Earl and 1st Duke of Bedford, by Lady Anne, da. and h. of Robert Ker, 1st Earl of Somerset; bro. of Hon. James*, Hon. Robert* and Hon. William Russell†. educ. privately (John Thornton); travelled abroad (France, Italy, Germany, Low Countries) 1660–6; Padua Univ. 1664. m. 1 Aug. 1688, Frances (d. 1694), da. of Sir Robert Williams, 2nd Bt., of Penrhyn, Caern., wid. of Richard Lloyd of Esclus, Denb., s.p. Styled Ld. Edward Russell from 11 May 1694.1
Custos rot. Caern. 1689–?d.; conservator, Bedford level 1696–d.; ld. lt. Beds., Cambs. and Mdx. 1700–1.2
Treasurer of the chamber 1693–1702.3
Asst. Mines Co. 1693.4
In 1690 Russell was returned for Bedfordshire, where his family had a strong interest, and was classed as a Whig in an analysis of the new House by Lord Carmarthen (Sir Thomas Osborne†). Robert Harley's* list of April 1691 classed him as a Court supporter, as did Carmarthen in 1692 and Samuel Grascome in 1693. Russell was also twice listed as a placeman in this Parliament by virtue of his place as treasurer of the chamber. Re-elected in 1695, he was forecast as likely to support the government in the division of 31 Jan. 1696 on the proposed council of trade. In February he signed the Association and the following month voted for fixing the price of guineas at 22s. After the discovery of Sir John Fenwick's† plot in the autumn he attended a meeting held at the house of Lord Keeper Somers (Sir John*), attended by Lord Wharton (Hon. Thomas*) and Charles Montagu* to consider what to do about Fenwick's revelations of Whig intrigues at St. Germain. On 25 Nov. he voted for Fenwick's attainder. Classed as a Court supporter and a placeman in the 1698 Parliament, he voted against the third reading of the disbanding bill on 18 Jan. 1699. In an analysis of the House into 'interests' in early 1700, he naturally appeared as a follower of the Duke of Bedford and Lord Orford (Edward Russell*).5
The death of his father in September 1700 was followed in November with Russell's appointment to the lord lieutenancies of three counties during the minority of the 2nd Duke of Bedford (then just turned 20), as well as official administration of the Bedford estates, then said to be worth £30,000 p.a. He relinquished the lieutenancies in November 1701. In the two 1701 Parliaments he was returned for Tavistock and Bedfordshire, never choosing between them. In August 1701 he accompanied Lord Halifax (Charles Montagu) to investigate a report that several Tory Members were in the company of Poussin the French envoy (see TREDENHAM, John), thus unleashing a major political scandal. Classed as a Whig by Harley in December 1701, he voted on 13 Feb. 1703 for agreeing with the Lords' amendments to the bill for extending the time for taking the oath of abjuration. Forecast as an opponent of the Tack, he did not vote for it on 28 Nov. 1704. At the general election of 1705 he was defeated by a revived Tory interest in Bedfordshire. After success in the county at the 1708 election he was listed as a Whig in one analysis of the new Parliament and as a 'gain' by the Earl of Sunderland (Charles, Lord Spencer*). He voted for the naturalization of the Palatines in 1709 and the impeachment of Dr Sacheverell in 1710. Re-elected in 1710, he appeared in the 'Hanover list' as a Whig. The death of the 2nd Duke of Bedford in May 1711 saw him regain administration of the Bedford estates, the 3rd Duke being only three. Russell retired, probably on health grounds, at the dissolution of Parliament in 1713, dying on 30 June 1714, aged 72.6

Gothic buildings describes buildings, which thrived through high and delayed medieval period. Gothic buildings engineered from Romanesque structures and renaissance architectural mastery became popular it.custom written research papers Inside the 12th century, Gothic design was generally known as French do business with the saying Gothic appearing the first time during the last an element of the renaissance. Elements of Gothic buildings have the pointed arch, the ribbed vault together with the traveling by air buttress. Gothic design is commonly termed as a architecture of you will find many wonderful Western cathedrals, chapels and abbeys (Purdy, 2011).
Reported by Purdy (2011), every one of us contemplate complexes like Cologne Cathedral, Mont Saint-Michel, Notre-Dame de Paris, and the like, when you hear about Gothic structure. Even so, the French and Italian Gothic construction appear to share countless standard components which includes, they are large, skinny, deliver ethereal sense sufficient reason for all their form take the sky, that is why, adjusting people to a somber feelings. Nevertheless, it is not necessarily a great deal recognised, despite the fact that wholly rational, that Gothic design and style is just not homogenous, and also Gothic shape from area and period perhaps very completely different from those included in other locations, in numerous timeframe (Purdy, 2011).
The one of a kind sign of French Gothic tends to be that architects of French Gothic battled to build up a superb Gothic fashion, tremendously highlighting the previously mentioned functions. French cathedrals make appearance with their overall and unbelievable verticality, made by the proportions somewhere between their horizontal and top to bottom projections. Additionally, the word style and design produces more meaning in French architecture than, like, in English language Gothic, where exactly nearly every making possesses its own extraordinary includes, which will not seem to be in any way or plainly in other circumstances. In comparison, the French Gothic in single and possesses quite a few certain range of capabilities when compared with virtually any Gothic subtype.
Italian Gothic is much more enthusiastic and unique to make considerably more properties in the past-concerned, driving the weather of typical buildings included given it was shaped in where the most widespread classical lifestyle flourished not very much time in the past. The wide-ranging using polychrome ornamentation, which employed different colours in painting each external and internal parts, is regarded as the distinct aspect. The green, vivid white, brown, along with other hues interspaced one another; the inner was brimming with mosaics and frescoes, producing opinion which has been exceptional because of this department of Gothic. In inescapable fact, even though probably the most Gothic, the stained cup, was adopted to begin with as the term of dislike throughout the late renaissance (Jackson, 1975). The Goth's ended up being barbarians, which resulted to a lot of ideas as to why Goth was the targeted heading for that layout that needed an intense manufacturing as well as specialized and creative knowledge. Considering that time, huge campaigns are developed to rename the Gothic layout which has a term, which takes into account more desirable the thought of gothic taste.
Jackson (1975) asserts the fact that the Gothic model was an overstated, tremendous time and effort to get next to to Our god. The worshipper expert an ascent on the heaven as well as being pulled close towards altar. These creative gemstones really are a grand testament to traditional solutions together with the imaginative eye sight and process of skillful craftsmen.
And lastly, each individual French cathedral is often single stylistically in appearance. They may be lightweight, with slight or with no need of projection of the transepts and auxiliary chapels. The west fronts have been highly continuous, obtaining some sites surmounted through a increased window, and two vast towers. There are actually further towers around the transept comes to an end from time to time. The eastern finish is polygonal with ambulatory and at moments, chevette of radiating chapels. The majority of the main chapels lack transepts and aisles during the Southern of France (Jackson, 1975).
A final thought, it can be recognizable that this French and Italian Gothic architecture got some commonalities and variances. The Gothic label also is a topic of disagreement. Nonetheless, both of those French and Italian Gothic design built high quality houses that happens to be even now looked at even nowadays in this time, filled with scientific use.

West Virginia's Missing Pieces of the Puzzle
Cover Photo by David Purdy/Getty Images)
Morgantown, West Virginia – Although the West Virginia Mountaineers are currently 13-5 this season, their weaknesses and flaws have really been exposed during their three-game losing streak.
West Virginia is ranked 243rd in the nation in rebounds per game, averaging 34.6. The Mountaineers rank 334th out of 358 teams in defensive rebounds per game with 22.8.
West Virginia's field goal percentage isn't any better. The Mountaineers are 252nd in the nation in field goal percentage, shooting 42.7% from the field as a team.
With that said, Bob Huggins lost his two best big men last season. Derek Culver made a poor decision when he decided to enter the 2021 NBA Draft. Even though he averaged 14.3 points and 9.4 rebounds per game, and was a 1st team All Big 12 Conference player last season, he was not considered by anyone to be a real professional prospect.
Oscar Tshiebwe appears to have made the very best possible move by going to Kentucky, where he's a National Player of the Year candidate, averaging 16.1 points and a nation's best 14.8 rebounds per game.
To say that West Virginia misses Culver and Tshiebwe this year is a massive understatement. Both were exaggerated versions of exactly what the Mountaineers need right now. Culver and Tshiebwe are/were high energy rebounders/defenders who could score around the rim.
Neither Culver or Tshiebwe were particularly polished scorers, but their shear physical dominance and strength made them difficult for any team to stop. Culver's back-to-the-basket post game would open up so many perimeter scoring opportunities for Taz Sherman, Sean McNeil and Jalen Bridges. Oscar Tshiebwe's energy and uncanny ability to track down rebounds would instantly take West Virginia from being the worst rebounding team in the Big 12 to one of the very best.
The untimely losses of Derek Culver and Oscar Tshiebwe have led to the current state of the West Virginia basketball program. Unfortunately, the Mountaineers not only lose a huge part of their scoring when Taz Sherman, Malik Curry and Sean McNeil leave the team next season, they will also lose most of their rebounding with the losses of Gabe Osabuohien, Dimon Carrigan and Pauly Paulicap.

Amid a wave of romaine lettuce E. coli outbreak headlines, an agtech company says its advanced indoor cultivation pods can grow lettuce and other produce without the contamination risk that is associated with other farming methods.
Corona, California-based agtech company, Grow Pod Solutions develops modular, stackable and mobile vertical growing containers to cultivate food in a pure, clean environment.
Grow Pod allows businesses, entrepreneurs, restaurateurs, grocery stores, schools and organizations to grow fresh, healthy food on-site that is free from disease, pesticides and dangerous chemicals.
The company's patented bipolar air ionization reduces airborne pollutants and creates a medical-grade growing environment. The process delivers ionized oxygen molecules – capable of neutralizing chemical compounds and VOCs, and sterilizing mold and bacteria – to create the optimal environment for safe cultivation.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found the E. coli outbreak affecting romaine lettuce is traceable to six counties in California, according to a report from the FDA released on Nov. 30.
Current evidence shows the romaine lettuce was harvested in Monterey, San Benito, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz and Ventura counties. These counties are in the Central Coast growing regions of Northern and Central California.
The FDA reiterated its warning that consumers avoid all romaine products that don't include new labels that identify the growing region and the date harvested of the lettuce.
E. coli can be shed in the feces of cattle, poultry and other animals, polluting water used to irrigate crops and the soil where fruits and vegetables are grown. Leafy greens, such as lettuce and spinach, can become contaminated during and after harvest from handling, storing and being transported.
Altogether there have been 43 cases of illnesses and 16 hospitalizations reported in 12 states.


Gas - What do I do ?
- Gurgling noises coming from your rabbit�s stomach.
- Bunny will become lethargic preferring to be left alone often sitting with her eyes partially closed.
- Significant decrease in appetite (even with her most favorite foods).
- Bunny will lay in an uncomfortable or unusual manner-partially on her side to ease the pain (most likely with the front part of her body held upright while her hind legs seem relaxed); or she may not want to lay down at all instead preferring to sit upright with a very straight posture.
- Her stomach will feel very hard, or extremely soft.
- Check your bunny�s temperature � If it has dropped below normal, you must warm her up before her system shuts down (hypothermia). Place her on a heating pad, warm water bottle, under a heating lamp, or hold her against your body. Continue to monitor her temperature regularly (every half hour so) to make sure it does not drop further.
- Give your bunny a simethicone product orally - Commonly sold over-the-counter products include Infant�s Phazyme, or Infant�s Mylicon. Give 1/3 of a dropper (0.3ml) for smaller bunnies, or � dropper (0.5ml) for larger bunnies every 4-6 hours until your bunny appears to lay down in her normal manner, or she beings to eat again. A Gas relief product is a good thing to have on hand in your rabbit care emergency kit.
- Take care of her digestive tract and make sure she is hydrated � Chances are your bunny has not eaten because of the pain. We must make sure the good flora (bacteria) in her intestines are still present in her system. Give her some acidophilus twice a day during this episode, or one ml of Benebac. Pedialyte can be added to make a manageable liquid if you are using acidophilus in powder form to syringe the mixture directly into her mouth. Give as much as she will take, being careful to drop the liquid slowly into the side of her mouth. Do not squirt it into her mouth as she could breath it into her lungs.
- Apply tummy massage � Rubbing your bunny�s tummy in a gentle manner will help to ease the pain and expedite the relief.
- Watch her appetite and make sure she is eating � Even if she will only feed on fruits, it is very important that she continues to eat. Episodes can last between 2 to 12 hours, you should contact your veterinarian if symptoms persist more than one day.

World Bank Survey Finds Risks Rising
By Howard Amos
A World Bank survey has warned of the fragility and heightened risks facing the global economy in 2012, and highlighted the vulnerability of emerging markets, including Russia.
The organization on Wednesday downgraded its Russia gross-domestic-product growth forecasts for 2012 to 3.5 percent, from the 4 percent figure it gave in June last year. This was broadly in line with the slashing of its 2012 developing country growth predictions as a whole from 6.2 percent to 5.4 percent.
The World Bank's annual Global Economic Prospects survey warned of the possibility of another severe financial meltdown sparked in the United States and Europe that would be less cushioned by the prophylactic measures of now debt-strapped developed nations. Such a crisis would be "deeply felt" by Russia and other developing countries, it said.
"Fiscal pressures could be particularly intense for oil- and metal-exporting countries," the report continued. "Falling commodity prices could cut into government revenues, causing government balances in oil-exporting countries to deteriorate by more than 4 percent of GDP."
A sharp slowdown in global growth could result in a more than 20 percent drop in energy prices, the survey predicted. According to Finance Ministry data, for every $1 knocked off the oil price, Russia's budget revenue drops $1.7 billion.
The authors of the report also noted that second-half capital inflow to developing countries had plunged from $309 billion in 2010 to $170 billion in 2011. The Central Bank said last week that Russia recorded a $56.4 billion capital outflow in the second half of 2011.
The World Bank predicted that the tempo of Russia's economic growth would begin to pick up again in 2013, achieving 3.9 percent. Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said GDP grew 4.2 percent last year.
"2012 will not be easy, rather, it will be the opposite, even more difficult than 2011," Putin said.
Russian GDP could grow by as much as 5 percent to 6 percent a year, Economic Development Minister Elvira Nabiullina said Wednesday, Interfax reported. "But this can only be secured through a fundamental improvement of the business climate," she added.

Greene King launches craft beer academy
Bury St Edmunds-headquartered Greene King has launched a craft beer academy aimed at getting more young people involved in the sector.
The Craft Academy helps craft new talent and unbottle potential by giving young people the chance to earn while they learn about brewing, design, marketing and sales.
With the help of experienced mentors, the 18 month course teaches participants industry-specific skills as they work towards a bespoke apprenticeship qualification, all while creating beers under the Craft Academy brand and bringing them to market.
The first Craft Academy course is already underway, with two apprentices playing a crucial role in the launch, sales and marketing of its first range of beers and in the creation of future core, seasonal and limited edition products.
The first five beers from the Craft Academy will officially debut at Craft Beer Rising 2017 and include; Over Easy (3.8% session IPA), Big Bang IPA (5.6% bold and citrusy IPA), Bitter Sweet (6% black IPA), Desert Ryeder (4.8% rye beer) and High & Dry (5% dry hop lager).
George Johnston, brewing and brands marketing director at Greene King, said: "The Craft Academy gives young people the chance to learn in-depth about each component of the brew process, right from creating the recipe and designing the branding to marketing and selling the beers. We're really pleased to support this venture, which helps young people to realise their passion for beer and brewing while working to secure a professional qualification."
Nancy Nangle, 25, who is a Craft Academy apprentice, said: "I've always been interested in beer, so being part of the Craft Academy and getting to work on new and eclectic brews is fantastic. It's been amazing to work on the launch of the first range of products, and we've got great plans to come."
Dan Scott, 24, added: "It's been really exciting to get so involved in the process, and there's so much more to it than meets the eye. We've been learning the ropes for the past few months and we're really excited to take the first range to Craft Beer Rising."
The beers can already be found in selected pubs and venues, with plans to launch them into other outlets and retailers. Applications will open for further apprentices to join the programme in future.

With $1.2m in fresh funding, SpaceSense sees satellite data as agtech's next frontier, AFN, by Richard Martyn-Hemphill
For every satellite launched up into space, there's terabyte after petabyte of data being beamed back down.
And with the latest generation of satellites even smarter and being dispatched skyward by the dozen, those petabytes will soon become exabytes, zetabytes, or even yottabytes.
So, how on Earth do you collect and crunch such a celestial deluge of data?
This is where some remote sensing start-ups eye an opportunity: Leave the complex, capital-intensive satellite development to governments or Muskian moguls. Instead, find ways of making existing satellite data more useful and accessible through automated pattern recognition.

How Does Precision Mapping Empower Agribusinesses to Flourish?
Maps have been critical assets for farmers throughout history. Landowners and farmers know their fields like the backs of their hands. With the addition of digital maps, agribusinesses gain a competitive advantage by knowing their land precisely based on geodata, not just experience.
Agricultural field mapping is an essential part of precision farming. Mapping technologies help farmers to find the exact locations of all crops on their farms and navigate across the area. They also can display location data on any crops. Apart from knowing the exact locations of crops, growers and agribusinesses can get a ton of valuable data on soil, product origins, moisture, and nutrient levels.
This article will answer the following questions for those working with agricultural holdings, small farmers, AgTech solutions providers, and product manufacturers and suppliers:
- How does precision mapping contribute to solving agribusiness challenges?
- What types of maps can agribusinesses use?
- How can you compile the most accurate maps?

Carbon capture is a controversial idea, attacked as a costly distraction from stopping emissions occurring in the first place.
But last month, the International Energy Agency said it was an imperative part of the mix, warning that it would be "virtually impossible" for the world to hit climate targets without capturing and storing emissions generated from factories, power plants, transportation and other sources. The transition to renewable energy, such as solar and wind, would not cut emissions in time, the IEA said.

Can electric vehicles ever truly become green? By Jean-Paul Oury
Electric Vehicles (EVs) are widely regarded as the future of transportation, an image avidly curated by Tesla. Central to the argument is the idea that EVs drastically reduce CO2-emissions compared to conventional combustion engines, thanks to the use of innovative batteries. Once again, Tesla is leading the charge on that front. The company is currently in talks with BHP, the world's largest miner, to increase the supply of nickel – a key metal in e-battery production that Tesla CEO Elon Musk is envisioning as the primary metal to be used in his batteries.
Although marketed as "zero emission" vehicles – especially by Tesla – EV's are currently far from the green solution they're touted as. After the manufacturing process and batteries are taken into account their carbon footprint is in reality little better than that of gas guzzlers. The scale tips further if the extraction of the necessary raw materials is considered, a point succinctly made by French journalist Guillaume Pitron, who highlights the paradox that an EV requires three to four times more energy – and thus produces more carbon – than a conventional vehicle before it has even driven the first kilometre.
Yet mining for the metals required in e-battery production has far-reaching environmental impacts beyond carbon emissions, ranging from pollution to destruction. Nickel is no exception, given that easily minable deposits are already being fully exploited. This means that increasing output of nickel is a highly problematic endeavour – even more so since Musk's call on mining companies to engage in "environmentally-friendly nickel mining at high volume" has considerably upped the ante for sustainable supply.

How America Helped Defeat the Coronavirus... Just not in the United States
We've all heard how U.S. leadership failed its citizens with its pandemic response. We had the playbooks, we had the money, we had the experts. We just … didn't use them.
But it turns out, other countries did. Because U.S. public health leaders and scientists have been planning for a catastrophe just like Covid-19 for decades, and, in typical American fashion, we didn't just write the pandemic playbook — we exported it around the world.

Tequila shots
Paudie goes into a bar and orders seven shots of tequila and one Guinness.
The barman lines up shots and goes to get the Guinness.
When he comes back with the pint, all seven shots are gone.
The barman says: "Wow! You sure drank those fast."
Paudie explains: "You would drink fast too if you had what I have."
The barman asks: "What do you have?"
The guy reaches into his pocket and says: "Fifty cents!".

I had a cartoon in the summer issue of FUNNY TIMES. Matt Bors did the great cover cartoon.
My cartoon is an old wheeze, a smart remark, and that's that.
I had a cartoon on page 21. I wouldn't been there if it hadn't been for your suggestion.
If you don't mind me asking what is the process of submitting to this periodical?
is there an email to send to?


On Sunday 13th January we held a free shop and skill-share day at Next to Nowhere ( http://www.liverpoolsocialcentre.org/home.htm). The idea was for people to come in and engage in whatever creative or practical skills they knew, to look at what others were doing and have a go, and to re-use, recycle or modify second hand items for free.
The background to this is the idea that many basic, practical skills are commandeered by educational institutions and culturally gendered by schools and the media, keeping us reliant on mass consumerism for all our daily needs, from food and clothing to plumbing and furniture. Contrary to what craft or CDT lessons at school may have led us to believe, taking back ownership of those skills isn't about what you can do if you're hard-working, diligent, give it all your time and effort and take a professional attitude. It's about what you can do if you're busy, short of cash, have little or no experience and less natural aptitude, but you're willing to give it a go. It's about getting together with other interested people, talking to each other and learning from each other. It's about not paying ridiculous prices for things that are really quite cheap and simple to make if you know someone who knows how. It's about discovering that you're not as helpless as you've been led to believe, that women can weld, that men can sew, and that none of us have to be passive consumers, reliant on fashions dictated by images designed to make us feel worthless. Skill-sharing is a form of empowerment.
The first event began with an informal format: tables set up for a variety of activities, with a children's area and Free Shop at one end. People arrived, with or without equipment, and either set themselves up to demonstrate their skills or had a look at what others were doing. Formal workshops may be considered for the next event, but in general we found people simply helped each other to have a go when they showed an interest.
Skills shared and used included woodwork, machine sewing, clay modelling, web design/message-board management and bicycle maintenance, and amongst the projects people worked on were a sandwich board (for outside the centre), curtains, clothes, banners, sculptures and photographic portfolios. Next time, with the gas cooker and kitchen units installed, we hope to add vegan cookery to the skills list, possibly with wild/foraged food.
The Free shop was a success, with a sewing machine and blender donated to centre, many clothes, books and games claimed and some scrap material used in the skill-sharing. Reactions to the day were positive and more are planned, to be arranged on a monthly basis. These will be publicised on the Next to Nowhere calendar ( http://www.liverpoolsocialcentre.org/calendar/month.php), and you are invited to seize the means of your production and bring them down to Next to Nowhere, along with any items you would like to pass on for free. Skills and equipment are not compulsory – you are also welcome to just bring yourself and an interest in learning something new.
If you are interested in attending, or in running a workshop on an unusual skill, please either e-mail me ( purplepooka@blueyonder.co.uk), sign up for the Liverpool Social Centre newsletter ( https://lists.riseup.net/www/info/liverpoolscnewsletter) or keep an eye on the Next to Nowhere calendar ( http://www.liverpoolsocialcentre.org/calendar/month.php) for announcements on skill-sharing events.

Q: Proxy-Authorization header is removed when using https I am trying to access a https url through a proxy that requires authentication in java, and the Proxy-Authorization header is not being passed to the proxy.
I know the networking aspect is working because I can perform exactly what I need using curl:
$ curl -H "Proxy-Authorization: Basic ##########" -x my_proxy_host:80 my_https_url -v
My code seems to work when I access an http url, however when I try to access a https url I get a 403 Forbidden, and I see in the logs that the Proxy-Authorization header is not passed from Java to the proxy.
Here is my code:
public static void main(String args[]) {
    try {

        HttpHost proxy = new HttpHost(my_proxy_host, 80, "http");

        DefaultHttpClient cli = new DefaultHttpClient();

        cli.getParams().setParameter(ConnRoutePNames.DEFAULT_PROXY, proxy);

        HttpHost target = new HttpHost(my_https_endpoint, 443, "https");

        HttpGet get = new HttpGet("/");

        get.setHeader("Proxy-Authorization", "Basic ##############");

        HttpResponse response = cli.execute(target, get);

        HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();

        System.out.println("----------------------------------------");
        System.out.println(response.getStatusLine());
        if (entity != null) {
            System.out.println("Response content length: " + entity.getContentLength());
        }

        EntityUtils.consume(entity);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

Note if you change the following line the code above works:
HttpHost target = new HttpHost(my_https_endpoint, 80, "http");
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Here are the logs that the apache httpclient generates.

A: Try this variant and see if it might meet your needs:
public static void main(String args[]) {
    try {

        HttpHost proxy = new HttpHost(my_proxy_host, 80, "http");

        DefaultHttpClient cli = new DefaultHttpClient();

        cli.getParams().setParameter(ConnRoutePNames.DEFAULT_PROXY, proxy);
        cli.getCredentialsProvider().setCredentials(
            new AuthScope(proxy.getHostName(), proxy.getPort()),
            new UsernamePasswordCredentials("username", "password"));

        HttpHost target = new HttpHost(my_https_endpoint, 443, "https");

        HttpGet get = new HttpGet("/");

        // Example from: http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/authentication.html#d5e1032
        BasicAuthCache authCache= new BasicAuthCache();
        // Target the proxy not target host
        authCache.put(proxy, new BasicScheme(ChallengeState.PROXY));
        BasicHttpContext context= new BasicHttpContext();
        context.setAttribute(ClientContext.AUTH_CACHE, authCache);
        HttpResponse response = cli.execute(target, get, context);

        HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();

        System.out.println("----------------------------------------");
        System.out.println(response.getStatusLine());
        if (entity != null) {
            System.out.println("Response content length: " + entity.getContentLength());
        }

        EntityUtils.consume(entity);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

Ideally, the proxy should have responded with an HTTP 407 Proxy Authentication Required on the initial request instead of a 403 Forbidden.  The 403 basically is saying GO-AWAY! While the 407 says, "hey - you wanna come through? give me a reason why?" by responding with a "Proxy-Authenticate: " header, to which you must respond with your credentials via a "Proxy-Authorization:  " header.
By preemptively authenticating, you're essentially sending credentials to a host when they have not been asked, kind of like stapling your Social Security number in large letters to your forehead.
EDIT I think I may have found something that MIGHT get you over the hump on this one:
HttpClient 4.2.2 and proxy with username/password see if that kicks it into gear.

A: I solved my problem by creating my own proxy on amazon EC2.
My goal was to be able to access an https service that required IP whitelisting, from an application running on Heroku, so there is no static IP or IP range that I can whitelist, therefore I needed a proxy with a static IP.
I was trying to use the proximo heroku addon and was having the problem I described above.
Thanks to Dave G for the help!
