Abstract: In this paper, we examine the spectrum of choices between organisational centralisation and decentralisation in the presence of emerging trends in communications, information-processing, and sensor technologies. These technologies are important drivers in the current move towards Network Centric Warfare (NCW), and raise the question: should the new networks being developed be used to enable greater centralisation, or greater decentralisation? We reduce the choice to six basic questions (covering issues such as facilities, information availability, communications, and time constraints), and examine how the answers to these questions are impacted by technological change. Our analysis suggests that most new technologies can support both centralisation and decentralisation. As a result, over coming decades, the choice will be increasingly determined by a purely theoretical question, namely the possibility of a 'global optimum'. This in turn is based on characteristics of the air, maritime, and land environments, with a global optimum more likely in the air and maritime environments, and less likely in the land environment.

Critical attention
The U.S. embarks on a national strategy of greater self-reliance for critical minerals
A geopolitical absurdity on par with some aspects of Dr. Strangelove and Catch 22 can't be reduced simply through an executive order from the U.S. president. But an executive order from the U.S. president doesn't hurt. On December 20 Donald Trump called for a "federal strategy to ensure secure and reliable supplies of critical minerals." The move came one day after the U.S. Geological Survey released the first comprehensive update on the subject since 1973, taking a thorough look—nearly 900-pages thorough—at commodities vital to our neighbour's, and ultimately the West's, well-being.

The study, Critical Mineral Resources of the United States, details 23 commodities deemed crucial due to their possibility of supply disruption with serious consequences. Many of them come primarily from China. Others originate in unstable countries or countries with a dangerous near-monopoly. For several minerals, the U.S. imports its entire supply.
They're necessary for medicine, clean energy, transportation and electronics but maybe most worrisome, for national security. That last point prompted comments from U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke, whose jurisdiction includes the USGS. He formerly spent 23 years as a U.S. Navy SEAL officer.
"I commend the team of scientists at USGS for the extensive work put into the report, but the findings are shocking," he stated. "The fact that previous administrations allowed the United States to become reliant on foreign nations, including our competitors and adversaries, for minerals that are so strategically important to our security and economy is deeply troubling. As both a former military commander and geologist, I know the very real national security risk of relying on foreign nations for what the military needs to keep our soldiers and our homeland safe."
Trump acknowledged a number of domestic roadblocks to production "despite the presence of significant deposits of some of these minerals across the United States." Among the challenges, he lists "a lack of comprehensive, machine-readable data concerning topographical, geological and geophysical surveys; permitting delays; and the potential for protracted litigation regarding permits that are issued."
[Trump's order also calls for] options for accessing and developing critical minerals through investment and trade with our allies and partners.
Trump ordered a national strategy to be outlined within six months. Topics will include recycling and reprocessing critical minerals, finding alternatives, making improved geoscientific data available to the private sector, providing greater land access to potential resources, streamlining reviews and, not to leave out America's friends, "options for accessing and developing critical minerals through investment and trade with our allies and partners."
Apart from economic benefits, such measures would "enhance the technological superiority and readiness of our armed forces, which are among the nation's most significant consumers of critical minerals."
In fact the USGS report finds several significant uses for most of the periodic table's 92 naturally occurring elements. A single computer chip requires well over half of the table. Industrialization, technological progress and rising standards of living have helped bring about an all-time high in minerals demand that's expected to keep increasing, according to the study.
"For instance, in the 1970s rare earth elements had few uses outside of some specialty fields, and were produced mostly in the United States. Today, rare earth elements are integral to nearly all high-end electronics and are produced almost entirely in China."
The USGS tracks 88 minerals regularly but also works with the country's Defense Logistics Agency on a watch list of about 160 minerals crucial to national security. This week's USGS study deems the critical 23 as follows:
fluorite or fluorspar
platinum group elements
A January 2017 USGS report listed 20 minerals for which the U.S. imports 100% of its supply. Several of the above critical minerals were included: fluorspar, gallium, graphite, indium, manganese, niobium, rare earths, tantalum and vanadium.
This comprehensive work follows related USGS reports released in April, including a breakdown of smartphone ingredients to illustrate the range of countries and often precarious supply chains that supply those materials. That report quoted Larry Meinert of the USGS saying, "With minerals being sourced from all over the world, the possibility of supply disruption is more critical than ever."
As both a former military commander and geologist, I know the very real national security risk of relying on foreign nations for what the military needs to keep our soldiers and our homeland safe. —Ryan Zinke,
U.S. Secretary of the Interior
David S. Abraham has been a prominent advocate of a rare minerals strategy for Western countries. But in an e-mail to the Washington Post, the author of The Elements of Power: Gadgets, Guns, and the Struggle for a Sustainable Future in the Rare Metal Age warned that Trump's action could trigger a partisan battle. He told the Post that Republicans tend to use the issue to loosen mining restrictions while Democrats focus on "building up human capacity to develop supply chains rather than the resources themselves."
Excessive and redundant permitting procedures came under criticism in a Hill op-ed published a few days earlier. Jeff Green, a Washington D.C.-based defence lobbyist and advocate of increased American self-reliance for critical commodities, argued that streamlining would comprise "a positive first step toward strengthening our economy and our military for years to come."
In a bill presented to U.S. Congress last March, Rep. Duncan Hunter proposed incentives for developing domestic resources and supply chains for critical minerals. His METALS Act (Materials Essential to American Leadership and Security) has been in committee since.
Speaking to ResourceClips.com at the time, Abraham doubted the success of Hunter's bill, while Green spoke of "a totally different dynamic" in the current administration, showing willingness to "invest in America to protect our national security and grow our manufacturing base."

Obama Israel Trip 2013: Why Young Israelis Won't Listen
By Aubrey Bloomfield
The Electronic Intifada's Ali Abunimah reports that on the same day Barack Obama arrived in Israel for his first trip as a sitting president, Israeli soldiers "violently seized and detained dozens of Palestinian children, some aged as young as eight, on their way to school" in the city of Hebron in the Occupied Territories. Just a day later, while addressing an audience in Jerusalem, Obama went off script and asked Israelis to put themselves in the shoes of Palestinians and see the world through their eyes. Speaking about a group of young Palestinians he had previously met with, Obama remarked, "talking to them, they weren't that different from my daughters. They weren't that different from your daughters or sons."
Yet, Obama's plea to Israelis to recognize the common humanity of Israelis and Palestinians stands in stark contrast to the "racist and violent statements" that have appeared on some Israeli Facebook accounts in reaction to the video of the Palestinian children being detained in Hebron.
The Israeli human rights organization B'Tselem, which posted the video on YouTube, condemned the mass detention of the 27 minors, including at least 14 under the age of 12. At least five children were 8 to 10 years old, which is below the age of criminal responsibility and "cannot legally be arrested." While a military spokesperson told B'Tselem that the children may have been involved in throwing stones and Molotov cocktails, as B'Tselem pointed out, if "there are specific suspicions against youths over the age of criminal responsibility, the police have the authority to detain them and interrogate them, but this cannot justify the mass detention of youths for unspecified suspicions, let alone the arrest or detention of children under twelve."
A number of reports released last year condemned Israelis treatment of Palestinian child detainees. The Palestine section of Defense for Children International published a report in April which found that when the "totality of the evidence is considered, a pattern of systematic ill-treatment emerges, much of which amounts to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, as defined in the UN Convention against Torture, and in some cases, torture – both of which are absolutely prohibited." Furthermore, a study funded and supported by the United Kingdom government released in June accused Israel of violating international law, international humanitarian law and the United Nations Convention on the Right of the Child in its treatment of Palestinian child detainees. It argued, "the starting point of a spiral of injustice" is the belief that "every Palestinian child is a 'potential terrorist.'"
This belief, this dehumanization of Palestinians children, is evident in the reaction when the video of Palestinian children being detained in Hebron was posted on the Israeli Facebook page, "We are all in favor of death to terrorists," which has over 41,000 "Likes." Referring to the children, users, among them Israeli soldiers, commented, "I'd break every one of his bones" or "More violence is needed. Where are the clubs to break their legs?" Or, one user commenting on how to deal with Palestinian children: "Put him on his knees and shoot a bullet into his mouth."
Shocking as they are, however, these are not simply isolated comments. On the same day as the video was posted, a picture of three Palestinian boys sitting in a tent as part of a peaceful protest to coincide with Obama's visit was re-posted to the same Facebook group. The image was accompanied by the caption, "Arab boys in the illegal Arab outpost established near Maale Adumim. What should the Israeli army do to them?" And it elicited another shocking outburst from users, including comments such as, "Burn the tent," "Put a couple of bullets in their heads and we're done," or "Run them over and shoot them. It's not complicated!"
These comments are the latest in a series of similarly racist and disgusting comments and images that have been appearing on Israeli social media, including Facebook and Instagram. This picture of a Palestinian boy in the crosshairs of an Israeli soldier's sniper rifle made headlines around the world in February.
While it's important to note that not all Israelis think like this, these comments and images are not just isolated incidents from a few people with extreme views, but rather the product of the Israeli occupation and a culture of oppression that dehumanizes the Palestinians. In this context, one in which racist incitement by Israeli public figures reportedly doubled in 2012, Obama's plea to recognize the common humanity of Israelis and Palestinians will likely continue to find many deaf ears.

Thai Princess' Political Bid Sunk by Her Brother, the King
It's unlikely we'll ever know just what happened behind the scenes before and after Ubolratana's shock announcement.
By Grant Peck for The Diplomat

Thailand's chaotic politics took two astonishing turns Friday when the sister of the king made a historic bid to become prime minister, only to have him shut down her effort as "inappropriate" because it violated tradition and the constitution, which keep the monarchy from getting involved in politics.
The royal order from King Maha Vajiralongkorn was read on national television late Friday night, effectively scuttling the move by his older sister, Princess Ubolratana Mahidol, to become a candidate for the prime minister's office after parliamentary elections scheduled for March 24.
It was the latest event to roil Thailand, which has been buffeted by coups, political comebacks and street violence for more than a decade.
Ubolratana's registration as a candidate was a stunning move, not only because it would have broken a taboo on a senior royal running for public office, but also because it would have allied her with the Thai Raksa Chart Party, considered to be unsympathetic to the monarchy.
It is one of several parties linked to the political machine of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, a telecommunications billionaire who roared to power in 2001 with populist policies that made him practically unbeatable. The army eventually ousted him from the prime minister's office in a 2006 coup.
The turnaround in Ubolratana's fortunes was also seen as startling because the siblings are thought to be close and it was considered unthinkable that Ubolratana would make her move without her brother's permission. What actually had happened behind the scenes is unlikely to become public, because the Thai royal family's private affairs are almost never leaked.
Vajiralongkorn tried to soften the blow by acknowledging that his 67-year-old sister has already relinquished her formal royal titles, and he praised her for conducting charity work and otherwise earning the love of her family and the Thai people.
But his order stressed that Thailand's constitution insists that the king and those around him stay above politics, and the principles of democratic government also put politics off-limits.
"Even though she relinquished her title according to royal laws by signing in letter, she still retains her status and position as a member of the Chakri dynasty," the king's order said.
"Bringing high-ranking royal family members to be involved in political system, in any way, is an act that is against the ancient royal protocol and national custom and culture, and is seen as a highly inappropriate act," the statement added.
Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, the preferred candidate of the military, is considered to be indelibly loyal to the monarchy. He led the 2014 military coup that ousted Thailand's last elected government, which had been backed by Thaksin.
Prayuth had been considered the front-runner for the March election because changes in the constitution and election rules implemented by his government make it difficult for political parties without military backing to capture the prime minister's post.
Thailand also has a draconian lese majeste law which punishes defamation of the immediate royal family with up to 15 years in prison. While it does not technically apply to Ubolratana, who lost her highest royal titles when she married an American more than four decades ago, its scope has been widened in recent years to almost anything that sullies the royal institution, making criticism of the princess highly problematical.
Before the king's statement, Ubolratana had issued a statement on Instagram saying she has "no special privileges above the Thai people under the constitution."
"This act of mine, I have done out of sincerity and intention to sacrifice in this request to lead the country to prosperity," she said.
Parliament has had members who were distant relatives of the monarch. Ubolratana falls into a gray area, since she is commonly called a princess and treated as such, despite losing the royal designations after her marriage.
Hours after she was registered as a candidate, a political party supporting Prayut filed an objection with the Election Commission, arguing that the action broke rules banning the use of the royal institution as part of a political campaign. Several other complaints followed, mostly from conservative royalists, exposing a possible vulnerability in her plans.
Ubolratana is the first-born of four children of the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej and Queen Sirikit, with the current king the second-born.
She was virtually disowned by her father in 1972 when she married American Peter Jensen, who was a fellow student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. They settled in the United States where they had three children. They later divorced and she moved back permanently to Thailand in 2001.
Since then she has thrown herself into charity work, especially her "To Be No. 1" foundation to fight youth drug abuse. She also frequently promotes Thai tourism and movies at international forums. In general, like most of the royal family, she publicly kept herself aloof from Thailand's recent political turmoil.
For most of Bhumibol's reign from 1946 to his death in 2016, the revered monarch was a stabilizing force in Thai politics. But the election of Thaksin in 2001 was transformative for Thailand.
His populist policies delivered unmatchable electoral majorities, but he was resented by the traditional ruling class, including royalists and the military. Violent street protests and two military coups have marked the years since. Thaksin went in exile in 2008 to avoid serving jail time on a corruption conviction he insists was politically motivated.
His well-funded political machine returned his allies to power twice, and his maneuvering was seen as the key element in arranging for Ubolratana's selection by a Thaksin-affiliated party.
Most political observers agree that Thaksin aggressively pursued good relations with the current king and friendship with the princess herself. These links were formed as royalists and others loyal to Bhumibol accused Thaksin of showing disrespect for the throne, and even of harboring secret republican tendencies.
When Vajiralongkorn ascended to the throne, conventional wisdom saw him as tightening his grip on power by allying himself closely with the military.
The surprise move by his sister into politics — assumed to be with the king's approval — raised questions about whether the long-lasting partnership of the palace with the army is in jeopardy.

India and Djibouti today signed an agreement to establish regular Foreign Office-level consultations during President Ram Nath Kovind's visit.
The agreement was signed after the talks between Kovind and his Djiboutian counterpart Omar Guelleh.
President Kovind thanked Guelleh for his country's support during Operation Rahat for evacuating Indians from war-torn Yemen in 2015, and also discussed cooperation in the maritime and renewable energy domains.
He also urged for an early ratification of Djibouti's membership of the International Solar Alliance (ISA) and mentioned its solar energy potential.
The ISA was jointly launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and then French President Francois Hollande at the CoP21 in Paris in 2015. The aim of the ISA is to provide a dedicated platform for cooperation among solar resource-rich countries and promote the use of solar energy.
President Kovind, who arrived here yesterday on the first leg of his four-day visit to Djibouti and Ethiopia, is on his maiden trip abroad since taking office. He is the first Indian leader to visit Djibouti.
Kovind's visit to the strategically-located African nation assumes significance as China has opened its first overseas military base in Djibouti.


CrossFit is a fitness program focused on maximizing a person's potential in strength, cardiovascular endurance, respiratory endurance, power, speed, stamina, flexibility, coordination, agility, balance, and accuracy. In other words, general all-around athleticism. By using constantly varied, functional movements executed at high intensity, we can improve the physical fitness, or what we call general physical preparedness, in everyone from elite athletes to sedentary office workers, kids to seniors.
CrossFit is a broad and inclusive program encompassing the standards you would expect: weightlifting, body weight exercises, and traditional cardio. However the magic of CrossFit also calls for Olympic lifting, climbing, throwing, basic tumbling, and gymnastics. It taxes both the aerobic and the anaerobic energy systems. Isolation movements have no place here, we focus on whole body, functional movement patterns that occur in activities of daily living. Core strength may be a contemporary buzzword but it is the foundation of our program. CrossFit makes us better general athletes and allows us to specialize outside the gym, be it on the rink, the track, or the streets.
Everyone can do CrossFit but CrossFit is not for everyone. Let's be honest, CrossFit is hard work. There will be no magazine reading while pedaling here. The people who thrive from CrossFit are committed to hard work, dedicated to consistency, willing to try without fear of failure, and eager for challenge. Rarely will you do the same workout twice. Routine is our enemy and will lead you to mediocrity, complacency, and injury. For those of you whose lives depend on fitness; law enforcement, military, and first responders, CrossFit is what you need to be doing. Talk to us and we will explain why we so strongly believe in this. Of course our belief is that CrossFit is the ultimate training program as it can be tailored to suit anyone and any fitness level.
Think you are up to the challenge? Call or email us at (604) 341-1491 michael@rockypointcrossfit.ca or (604) 417-5431 tom@rockypointcrossfit.ca to arrange a time to stop by or try a free 1-on-1 Intro session. CrossFit is an art that must be experienced to be truly understood. We look forward to helping you reach your fitness goals.


Oracle 8.1.6 introduced statspack as a replacement for the UTLBSTAT/UTLESTAT scripts. Along with additional reporting, statspack can store snapshots of system statistics over time, allowing greater accuracy and flexibility. Information about the installtion and usage of statspack can be found in the following document.
Installation of statspack involves the creation of the PERFSTAT user along with the necessary schema objects and the STATSPACK package. This is achieved by running the following script as SYS.
Once installed you can connect to the PERFSTAT user and take a snapshot of the system statistics using the following procedure call.
At a later time you can take another system snapshot, giving you a potential start and end point for your analysis. The advantage over the UTLBSTAT/UTLESTAT scripts is that there is no set start or end point for your analysis. You can take multiple snapshots and use any for your start and end point.
The collection of system snapshots can be automated with the DBMS_JOB package. The spauto.sql script can be used to schedule system snapshot collections on the hour, every hour.
If you are automating snapshot collection you will need to delete snapshots from time to time. This can be done by running the sppurge.sql file as the PERFSTAT user. This script deletes a range of snapshots by prompting for the start and end points.
Once you have at least two snapshots you can run the statspack report and find out the change in the statistics over the analysis period. The script prompts you for the start and end snapshots along with a filename for the output report.
An example of a statspack report can be found here.
Once created you can check the contents of the output file for problem load profiles and queries.

Based on a character created by Len Wein and Berni Wrightson, Swamp Thing was made before Alan Moore revitalized the DC comic book series, before Wes Craven made a box office name for himself with A Nightmare on Elm Street and before comic book/superhero movies really found their footing. And so it's a little uneven, teetering between good intentions and bad special effects, sophistication and amateurishness, maturity and childishness. But it's awfully likeable and definitely has a so-bad-it's-good quality.
Ray Wise plays Dr. Alec Holland, whose swamp lab is attacked; he is doused with experimental chemicals, catches fire and jumps into the swamp water to save himself. The combination of those things turns him into the walking vegetable of the title (though it looks more like a rubber suit than anything plant-like). The bad guy, Dr. Anton Arcane (top-billed Louis Jourdan) wants Holland's secret formula and thinks the beautiful Alice Cable (Adrienne Barbeau) has it, so the goons continue to chase her through the swamp.
"Swampy" occasionally helps, but mostly she's aided by a young boy named Jude (Reggie Batts). We get lots of fight scenes (sometimes with other guys in rubber monster suits), a dungeon, a topless bathing scene (in the uncut version only), and lots of corny dialogue. David Hess, from Craven's The Last House on the Left, co-stars as the leader of the goons. A sequel, The Return of Swamp Thing, followed in 1989, but it was a B-movie with nowhere near the aspirations of this one.

The 5 Key Features to Consider when buying a Resale Property in Ottawa Ontario.
When purchasing a resale property what are the 5 categories that a purchaser should consider when purchasing a home that is older than 10 years but newer than 50 years of age? These are the areas of a home that will require maintenance, investment and offer good resale in the years to come.
Roof – A normal builder grade roof will last anywhere from 10 to 15 years. You can extend the life of the shingles by ensuring that there is proper ventilation so that the shingles do not over heat and reduce the shingles life expectancy. Secondly make sure that the Eavestrough are not dumping water on the shingles directly, as this will reduce the life expectancy of any shingle no matter what the quality or expected life expectancy might be.
Furnaces and Air Conditioners – A normal Natural Gas Furnace will have a life expectancy of 20 years. Yearly service contracts and cleaning can ensure that the furnace will make it to it full life expectance, however after 20 years the furnace does not owe you anything and a 20 year old furnace today is far less efficient and costly to run. Air Conditioners usually last 15 to 20 years and the same "rule of thumb" for efficiency and cost savings apply.
Windows – Wood Windows are less favourable today because of our busy lifestyles and the desire for maintenance free homes. Wood Windows require annual scraping and painting. Vinyl windows are on more buyers "wish lists" and a definite plus to any listings feature sheet. Condensation between the glass or broken seals means that the glass should be replaced and it is less costly than replacing the entire window in most cases. Windows can be a costly renovation that most home buyers will prefer to avoid. If the windows are wood and they have been maintained, vinyl capping them is a good option too and is seen as a favourable option.
Flooring – Hardwood is definitely "in" for most home buyers and it seems to be on the top of their lists for features that they require in their next home. The more hardwood the better and if you have it in your bedrooms that is even more exciting. Hardwood is definitely a good investment. Replacing old worn out carpeting even with newer carpeting can still be a good option depending on your budget. If it looks and feels good that will work too.
Kitchen and Bathroom – The old story is that Kitchens and Bathrooms sell homes and this is still very true today. The investment towards a new Kitchen and/or Bathrooms can really jazz up a tired home. Kitchens today are quickly changing with increased popularity of granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and the availability of new hardware selections you can update an older kitchen to give you that "WOW" factor again. There is no doubt that a new kitchen in a home will bring the highest resale value to any older neighbourhood depending on the design and quality. Bathrooms fall into this category too. The selection of new designer sinks, shower stalls, tubs and vanities can really make a bathroom standout against the competition. The "spa" look is very in fashion and unique bathrooms will draw positive attention to any home.
If the majority of these five categories have been looked after, you will be able to live in the home with very little worry of costly renovations and/or unexpected repair costs in the next few years to come.

Investigators are piecing together how an airline ground agent stole an empty commercial airplane, took off from Sea-Tac International Airport and crashed into a small island in the Puget Sound after being chased by military jets that were quickly scrambled to intercept the aircraft.
Cell phone video captured a stolen airplane making erratic maneuvers in the sky over Seattle before crashing into an island.
"This is a complete shock to us," the family of Russell, who was known as "Beebo," said in a statement read Saturday evening by a family friend. "We are devastated by these events, and Jesus is truly the only one holding this family together right now. Without him, we would be hopeless."
The family added that he "was a faithful husband, a loving son, and a good friend." They said voice recording shows Russell's "intent was not to harm anyone. He was right in saying that there are so many people who have loved him."
Russell could be heard on audio recordings telling air traffic controllers that he is "just a broken guy."

OCEANPORT, N.J. (July 16, 2020) – Two-time stakes winner Authentic will be the likely favorite in a seven-horse field of 3-year-olds for a free berth into the $7 million Longines Breeders' Cup Classic (G1) in Saturday's $1 million TVG.com Haskell Stakes at Monmouth Park, live at 5 p.m. ET on NBC. The Haskell broadcast is part of the "Breeders' Cup Challenge Series: Win and You're In – presented by America's Best Racing."
The one-hour program, which also will include coverage of the United Nations Stakes (G1) on turf, marks the fourth broadcast this year in the "Breeders' Cup Challenge Series: Win and You're In – presented by America's Best Racing" on NBC and NBCSN from some of North America's most iconic racetracks. The series leads to the 37th Breeders' Cup World Championships at Keeneland Race Course in Lexington, Ky., scheduled for Nov. 6-7 on NBC and NBCSN. The complete series TV schedule can be accessed here: https://www.breederscup.com/challenge-series/tv-schedule.
NBC Sports' coverage will feature commentary and discussion led by host Ahmed Fareed and analyst Randy Moss from NBC Sports Group's International Broadcast Center in Stamford, Conn. Analyst and Hall of Fame jockey Jerry Bailey, who won 15 Breeders' Cup races, including five victories in the Breeders' Cup Classic (G1), joins the broadcast from his home in Florida, and handicapper Eddie Olczyk from his home in Chicago. Reporters Britney Eurton and Matt Bernier will be on-site at Monmouth Park.
Live coverage will also be streamed on NBCSports.com and the NBC Sports app – NBC Sports Group's live streaming product for mobile devices, tablets, and connected TVs.
Authentic, owned by Spendthrift Farm, MyRaceHorse Stable, Starlight Racing and Madaket Stables, and trained by Bob Baffert, comes into the Haskell as the morning line favorite at odds of 4-5. Authentic has won two of three starts this year, which includes the Sham Stakes (G3) and the San Felipe Stakes (G2), both at Santa Anita Park. He finished second to Honor A.P. in his most recent start, the Santa Anita Derby (G1), on June 6.
Among the challengers to Authentic is St. Elias Stable's Dr Post, the 5-2 second choice. Trained by Todd Pletcher and ridden by Joe Bravo, Dr Post comes into the Haskell off a fine effort in the 1 1/8 mile Belmont Stakes (G1) on June 20. The dark bay son of Quality Road raced wide into the stretch and closed from sixth to second behind Tiz the Law. Prior to the Belmont, Dr Post broke his maiden in March and then won the Unbridled Stakes, both at Gulfstream Park.
Following a win at Gulfstream Park in the winter, NY Traffic has been in the money in each of his three stakes starts along the Triple Crown trail for trainer Saffie Joseph, Jr. NY Traffic, owned by John Fanelli, Cash is King LLC, LC Racing and Paul Braverman and ridden on Saturday by Paco Lopez, finished third in the Risen Star Stakes (G2) at the Fair Grounds in New Orleans on Feb. 15, and then finished second by 1 1/2 lengths in the Louisiana Derby (G2). He comes into the Haskell off a second-place finish in the 1 1/16-mile Matt Winn Stakes (G3) at Churchill Downs, after leading the field into the stretch.
The 1 3/8-mile United Nations Stakes is led by Donegal Racing, Joseph Bulger and Peter Coneway's Arklow, who won last year's Joe Hirsch Turf Classic (G1) at Belmont Park. Trained by Brad Cox, Arklow finished sixth in last Sunday's Elkhorn Stakes (G2) at Keeneland.

CEDAR RAPIDS — The Burlington Bees got off to a good start by winning six of their first eight games, all at Community Field.
Now the Bees are on the road, and there are new challenges.
Burlington's 2-1 loss to the Cedar Rapids Kernels in Saturday's Class A Midwest League game at Perfect Game Field was the first time this season the Bees lost back-to-back games.
"We got hot at home, everything was great," Bees manager Jack Howell said. "Now we're on the road, playing in someone else's ballpark, and we've been tested. So now we have to respond."
The Bees lost, 8-3, on Friday night. This game was different — Burlington got solid pitching from Cristopher Molina and Austin Krzeminski.
But the Bees struck out 15 times. The last five outs were strikeouts, and there was a four-batter stretch of strikeouts in the second and third innings.
Burlington is averaging 10.3 strikeouts per game to start the season.
"I know it's cold, I know that some guys are in their first full season and maybe that has something to do with it," Howell said. "But I would like to see us battle. I know some guys have been working on things. Is it a concern? No, because it's still early. But we have to battle, put the ball in play.
"And, sometimes you have to give credit to the other team. We've seen some good arms."
The Kernels broke a 1-1 tie in the eighth. With runners on first and second and two outs, Cedar Rapids' Andrew Bechtold hit a slow grounder up the third-base line. Krzeminski tried to throw Bechtold out at first, but the throw was into the runner and first baseman D.C. Arendas had the ball get away after Bechtold collided with Arendas' arm. Trey Cabbage scored, but Arendas fielded the loose ball and threw Chris Williams out at the plate to end the inning.
The Bees had a chance in the ninth inning. Alexis Olmeda singled with two outs, his first hit after starting the season 0-for-17, but Arendas struck out to end the game.
Cedar Rapids took a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Michael Davis scored on a wild pitch. Burlington tied the game in the fifth when Jordyn Adams singled in Gleyvin Pineda.
"I can't complain, we've been in pretty much every game, and that's what you want," Howell said. "We'll figure everything out."

Rotation: Heaven and Hell (CD); Live at Radio City Music Hall (DVD)
Bob Ruggiero September 6, 2007 8:12AM
Look out!! With all due respect to the Police, Van Halen, and Genesis (okay, maybe not Genesis…), the only classic-rock reunion of the year that mattered, especially to serious headbangers, was that of Black Sabb…er, I mean Heaven and Hell. Don't sue, Sharon Osbourne!
The Dio Years anthology, featuring three new tracks, and a hugely successful tour featuring Ronnie James Dio (vocals), Tony Iommi (guitar), Geezer Butler (bass) and Vinny Appice (drums) brought deserved and renewed attention to BS 3.0's music, which rivaled – and at times surpassed – that of the original Fearsome Foursome.
With Dio, Sabbath veered toward a faster, harder-rocking edge. The former Ronald James Padavona was also adept with the pen, adding a distinct fantasy-fueled songwriting edge. Fifteen years after their last stint together, Black Sab… make that Heaven and Hell, taped an early 2007 show for this double CD and DVD release. It makes me sad; not in a goth/depressed way, but sad that this lineup's time together was so brief!
As a concert souvenir, Live at Radio City Music Hall completely blows away their justly maligned Live Evil. The amazing 65-year-old Ronnie James Dio is a force of nature, with his patented howls and wails losing little off their top edge over the decades. Iommi and Butler seem reinvigorated after recent years playing behind that drug-addled, bumbling reality-TV star, and Appice is the joyous stick-thumper who just won the lottery. All four belie their ages onstage.
In fact, both Iommi and Butler note in the DVD extra interview that playing Sabbath songs from the Dio years gave them a much-needed re-invigoration after more than a decade of half-mast versions of "Paranoid" and "Iron Man" on Sabbath's Ozzfest stints. Other extras include a short documentary and "Meet the Mob," in which cameras encounter clearly ecstatic NY Sabbath fans. Think Heavy Metal Parking Lot: 25 Years Later.
Standout performances include "Children of the Sea," "Die Young," "The Mob Rules," "Heaven and Hell," "I" and new song "Shadow of the Wind." And while Dio's stage patter leaves much to be desired – killing any suspense by announcing song titles, and sometimes album origin and lyrics – before launching into each track, the castle/graveyard/stained-window set is effective. One glaring weakness on the DVD, though, is the sensory assault of the incessant and way-too-numerous camera cuts.
As the current and final leg of the Heaven and Hell tour winds down, a rumor persists that the original lineup is contemplating a new CD and world tour. However, many fans would prefer to see this Dio-led lineup continue on instead. Ozzy can stay in his mansion, drive his kids to rehab, and clean up dog shit. – Bob Ruggiero

Until very recently, cancer prevention has largely focused on early diagnosis and treatment, also known as secondary prevention. By the time secondary prevention becomes necessary, the disease in question has already taken hold within an individual, and doctors just want to lessen its impact by finding it and treating it early. Alternatively, primary prevention is the practice of avoiding the causes of a disease in order to prevent getting it in the first place. Not nearly enough attention has been paid to primary prevention of cancer, but we do know some things you can do to reduce the chance that you will develop cancer during your lifetime.
Read on to find out about 12 things you can do to avoid cancer.
Avoid smoking, overeating, and overdrinking, and keep moving. Take the stairs instead of elevators; find a form of exercise you like and commit to doing it with a friend. Plan to walk instead of drive. When driving, stick with the speed limit to save lives, save energy and reduce cancer-causing pollution; speed kills, pollutes and fuels terror.
Use x-rays and other radiation sparingly and keep a record of all x-rays. The excessive use of x-rays in infants and children may be one of the reasons more young people (those under 40 years of age) are getting cancer and can also contribute to cancer in adults. Earlier this year, the American College of Radiology advised against unnecessary and excessive use of diagnostic radiation in children for this very reason. Before ordering x-rays doctors should carefully weigh the risks and benefits of using MRI, or ultrasound, technologies that do not involve radiation.
Unless someone in your immediate family has had breast cancer before menopause, hold off getting your first mammogram until at least age forty, or until your doctor advises you start having them—and then have them done sparingly. Mammography does not prevent breast cancer, but can reduce deaths from the disease in post-menopausal women. It is also important to have regular physical exam of breasts by a health professional.
Use hormones sparingly. Lifetime use of hormones affects cancer risk. Consider alternatives to chemical contraception such as IUDs and condoms (which also protect against sexually transmitted disease). Avoid long term use of medications that contain hormones, including hormone replacement therapy.
Test your basement for radon and if you live in an area with uncertain water quality, use a simple filter. An invisible gas, radon can seep into homes from the ground and increase the risk of lung cancer. It can easily and inexpensively be remedied.
Do not consume food and beverages that contain aspartame. Sweeten your food with good old-fashioned sugar or honey, or stevia instead. Despite having FDA approval, aspartame, the sugar substitute, was never given a green light by scientists—all were concerned about its potential to cause cancer. New independent studies raise further concerns about its long term safety.
Use cell phones with an earpiece and speakerphone so the phone itself is not held up against your head. Children should not use cell phones. Studies claiming that there is no link between cell phone use and brain cancer were not conducted on people who used cell phones as much as the average person today. Cell phones emit low doses of microwave radiation that destroy rat brain cells and memory and reach one inch into the human brain. While British authorities recommend that children not use cell phones at all, some American firms are pushing phones for five year olds.
Buy local foods in season from farmers who use fewer pesticides. Use omega-3-fatty acid supplements free of pollutants and eat a diverse diet, rich in vitamin D, calcium and fiber.
Don't put anything on your baby's skin that you can't eat. The materials that create "no more tears" in baby shampoo are banned in several countries, because they cause cancer in animals. In some cases lotions used on the heads of African-American babies caused development of breasts and pubic hair. The FDA has no authority to regulate any of these harmful compounds in personal care products, unlike the European Union.
Look under your sink and read the labels on your cleaning products—in general, the fewer ingredients they have, the better for you they are. Baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice, and toothpaste can be used to clean most things around the home. Some room deodorizers and mothballs contain carcinogens.
Don't microwave anything in plastic, no matter what the directions say. Some plastic chemicals can leach into food.
Unlike nearly all industrial nations of the world, America and Canada have not banned asbestos. Before doing home renovations and repair of attics, roofing, ceiling and flooring tiles, find out if they contain asbestos and hire certified contractors if they do. Zonolite attic insulation and some forms of kitty litter contain asbestos-related materials. Half of all people with a rare form of cancer thought to be uniquely tied with asbestos called mesothelioma have no known workplace contact with asbestos.
Through leading a healthy life and avoiding certain known carcinogens, it is possible to reduce your lifetime risk of developing cancer. It is true that much remains to be learned about the environmental causes of cancer. While researchers continue to explore the causes, we can use what is already known to start practicing cancer prevention today.
Mitchell Gaynor explores the environmental exposures that contribute to cancer growth. "Everyone is walking around with cancer in their bodies." He explains that the strategy is not to eradicate every cancer cell but rather to keep cancer cells dormant so that they do not become active. He discusses the key things each person can do to protect themselves from toxic environmental exposures such as flame retardants, phalates, dioxins, white sugar and radio frequency radiation. "Be careful with cell phones and electronic items, use wired rather than wireless when possible." He details detoxifying enzymes and foods we can eat to increase our bodies' ability to fight cancer.
Dr. Mitchell Gaynor is a board certified medical oncologist, internist and hematologist, Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College. Dr. Gaynor has served as the medical director and director of medical oncology at the Weill Cornell Center for Complementary and Integrative Medicine.
Environmental Health Trust applauds this important effort of leading Canadian scientists to identify avoidable causes of cancer in the environment today.

Q: How to identify Lambda service exception from API gateway response? I want able to identify errors related to the Lambda function service when using HTTP API gateway Lambda integration, not the exceptions related to my application running on using the Lambda function.
An example of this is an error related to the Lambda function concurrency. If I invoke a Lambda function too many times in parallel (beyond its concurrency limit), I get a 503 error with the following response:
{
    message: 'Service Unavailable'
}

I want the API response to include more information through which I can identify that this is a service exception, not an exception in my code.
I realize that my application (Lambda function code) I can avoid returning the above error message when another 503 error occurs, and then I can check for a "Service Unavailable" message to identify Lambda concurrency issues, but I was looking for a more customizable and formal method.

When multiple screws are used to move a load with precise synchronicity, screws of similar lead accuracy can be factory selected and supplied as sets. Consult factory for matched lead set tolerances.
Although PowerAc™ Acme Screws are manufactured from straight, cylindrical material, internal stresses may cause the material to bend or yield.
PowerAc™ Rolled and Milled Acme Screws are straight within 0.010 inch/foot and will not exceed 0.030 inch in any 6 foot section, when shipped from the factory.
PowerAc™ Ground Acme Screws are straight within 0.001 inch/foot when shipped from the factory.
If tighter straightness tolerances are required, contact Nook Industries customer service.
PowerAc™ Acme Screws are manufactured from high quality materials with excellent dynamic properties. Because of the variable effects of friction, lubrication and cleanliness, a specific life cannot be predicted. Proper lubrication, regular maintenance, and operation within specified limits will extend the life of PowerAc™ Acme Screws.
Efficiency of PowerAc™ Acme Screw assemblies range from 15% to 85%. These efficiencies are dependent upon nut material, lubrication, lead and thread form.
Normally, acme screws are used to convert rotary motion into linear motion. Backdriving is the result of the load pushing axially on the screw or nut to create rotary motion.
Generally, a nut with efficiency greater than 50% will have a tendency to backdrive. If a selflocking assembly is required, select a nut with efficiency below 35%.
CAUTION - Vibration can cause any acme screw assembly to creep or backdrive. When using lead screws, applications should be analyzed to determine the necessity of a brake, especially when the possibility of injury may occur.
Backlash (lash) is the relative axial clearance between a screw and nut without rotation of the screw or nut. Backlash information for PowerAc™ Acme Screws and Nuts is listed within the data section of this catalog. Lash will always increase with use. Nook Industries has developed several unique ways to reduce or remove the lash between the screw and nut.
For screw diameters over 5/8 inch, PowerAc™ No-Lash™ Flanges are available. The PowerAc™ No-Lash™ Flange is identical to a standard flange except for slotted mounting holes. The backlash can be removed by using a nut with a PowerAc™ No-Lash™ Flange in combination with a standard nut and flange. By rotating the slotted PowerAc™ No- Lash™ Flange and nut relative to the other, the thread in the second nut advances until the lash is reduced.
CAUTION - When the uncompensated lash is equal to or greater than times the pitch, the assembly should be replaced.

Royal baby announcement breaks with tradition
By New Desk
AFP |
Tradition-defying royal couple Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, broke with custom yet again on Monday with the announcement of the birth of their first child. News of the birth was released on Instagram — a first in royal history — in a post on their @sussexroyal account with the couple's crest and the simple phrase: "It's a BOY!"
The post received more than 750,000 likes in under an hour. The account was only launched in April, breaking a world record by reaching a million followers in under six hours.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BxH36irhwcO/
Harry has battled to protect his privacy for years. The 34-year-old's relationship with the media has been fraught ever since the death of his mother Diana in a car crash in Paris 1997 while being chased by paparazzi.
The couple had made it clear last month that they wanted the birth kept private — in contrast to Harry's brother Prince William and his wife Kate, Duchess of Cambridge.

Their three children were all delivered in the private wing of St Mary's Hospital in London and shown off to the world's media and royal fans a short time later. Instead, the new baby will only be seen later this week to a media pool that will share the images worldwide.
Wish to 'Celebrate Privately'
"Their Royal Highnesses have taken a personal decision to keep the plans around the arrival of their baby private," Buckingham Palace said in a statement in April. "The Duke and Duchess look forward to sharing the exciting news with everyone once they have had an opportunity to celebrate privately as a new family," it said.
The circumstances of Monday's announcement demonstrated the couple's wish to retain their privacy as much as possible.
Royal officials announced on Monday afternoon that Meghan had gone into labour in the early hours of that morning. Only half an hour later, a royal statement announced that Meghan had in fact given birth at 5:26am (0426 GMT).

George and Sir John
The announcement was followed up by a video statement by a beaming Harry, standing in front of a stable in Windsor — a town outside London where the couple now live on the grounds of its famous castle.
The names of two black horses behind him were clearly visible — George and Sir John, prompting some media to speculate the child's name might be John, who would be cousin to William and Kate's first son George.
"This little thing is absolutely to die for. So I am just over the moon," Harry said, calling the birth "the most amazing experience I can ever possibly imagine". Harry said the announcement of the name was the "next bit".

"I think we will be seeing you guys in probably two days' time as planned as a family to be able to share it with you guys and so everyone can see the baby," he said. Neither Harry nor royal officials specified where the birth took place — at their residence at Frogmore Cottage or in a nearby hospital.
Some British media earlier reported that the couple wanted a home birth, which would re-connect with older tradition. Queen Elizabeth had all four of her children, including Harry's father Prince Charles, in a royal palace.

Zadnia Salatyńska Przełęcz, zwana też Przełęczą pod Dzwonem (słow. Sedlo u Zvonu, sedlo Skriniarok) – położona na wysokości 1907 m lub 1885 m n.p.m. przełęcz w Tatrach Zachodnich pomiędzy znajdującymi się w grani głównej Tatr Spaloną Kopą (2083 m) a Małym Salatynem (2046 m). Właściwie przełęcz znajduje się w długiej, postrzępionej i ostrej grani zwanej Skrzyniarki, pomiędzy Spaloną Kopą a niewybitnym i na niektórych mapach niewyróżnianym szczytem Salatyńskiej Kopy (1925 m). Grań tworzy tu kilka zębów i niewielkich przełęczy, z których najwybitniejsza jest właśnie Przełęcz pod Dzwonem (nazwa ta pochodzi od znajdującej się w grani niewielkiej turni Dzwon). Północne zbocza spod przełęczy opadają stromo do polodowcowego, zawalonego kamiennymi głazami kotła Doliny Zadniej Salatyńskiej (boczna odnoga Doliny Rohackiej), zaś zbocza południowe również stromo do jeszcze bardziej martwego, niemal pozbawionego roślin cyrku Głębokiego Worka i Doliny Głębokiej.

Szlaki turystyczne

The new Hoefer 2-Dimensional Electrophoresis System that offers the highest focusing voltage is available for the first dimension and has an easy-to-use, highly reproducible, second-dimension separation tank.
The complete 2D System includes the IEF100 First-dimension Isoelectric Focusing Separation Unit and the SE900 Vertical Slab Gel Electrophoresis Unit. The IEF 100 will help researchers increase the quality and speed of their IEF separations, and the SE 900's single tank design ensures leakage free runs and ability to reuse buffer. The SE 900 is also simple to use, utilizes minimal parts, and provides efficient cooling.
The SE 900 provides second dimension capabilities, and when used with the IEF 100, a holistic 2D System results. For example, the IEF 100 is used to generate first-dimension; then the focused strips are transferred to a SE 900 second-dimension slab gel for the second dimension separation by molecular weight. The first dimension IEF can be run with IPG strips of any length commercially available up to 24 cm (e .g. SERVA IPG BlueStrips). Up to six IPG strips can be focused at one time in a plastic running tray.
The integrated 12,000 Volt Power Supply, with its high voltage and current, enables fast run times and provides both Ethernet and RS232 outputs at the front of the unit. The separation tank can hold up to 6 second dimension gels.
There is a gel casting option that can be purchased with the SE 900. The gels can thus be cast in a multiple gel caster that produces identical gels to allow for highly reproducible production of lab cast gels.

Жан-Люк Пера (; ) — французский политик, бывший депутат Национального собрания Франции, бывший член Социалистической партии Франции

Родился 23 января 1950 г. в городе Ирсон (департамент Эна). На выборах в Национальное собрание 2007 г. выиграл голосование по 24-му избирательному округу департамента Нор, получив 53,15 % голосов.

Во время выборов в Национальное собрание 2012 г. в результате изменения границ избирательных округов его 24-й округ был упразднен, и Жан-Люк Пера хотел стать кандидатом социалистов по 3-му избирательному округу, но уступил мэру Мобёжа Реми Повро. После этого Пера выставил свою кандидатуру на выборах как независимый левый кандидат, после чего его исключили из Социалистической партии. В 1-м туре выборов Пера занял 3-е место с 19,3 % и не прошёл во 2-й тур.

После избрания депутатом в 2008 году Жан-Люк Пера ушел в отставку с поста мэра коммуны Анор, но на следующих муниципальных выборах в 2014 году, уже после поражения на выборах в Национальное собрание, вновь баллотировался в мэры Анора и одержал победу. На выборах 2020 года он сохранил мандат мэра без борьбы, так его выборный блок был единственным.
