Cirque Musica Holiday presents Believe have announced the 2017 tour. The tour will start November 18 and travel across the United States and Canada thru December 23rd. Shows include the New York City area premiere at Nassau Coliseum in Long Island on Sunday, December 17, MTS Center in Winnipeg Canada on November 24th and many more great cities in between.


Rebecca recently visited Ten Tenths, one of the world's leading motorsport preparation companies to find out how it deals with some of the issues associated with preparing and running such beautiful and rare vehicles.
Modern fuels burn much hotter and these cars are pushed more on a race track today than they ever were in their heyday. This presents a number of challenges for Ten Tenths but the company gets around it with innovative heat management solutions.
In the video, Rebecca looks at a beautiful Le Mans Lola 297, which achieved two second-place finishes and a third over its career. Heat management is so important on a car like this thanks to the enclosed body work, which makes the car hot. It's imperative that the fuel tank is kept cool.
The Zircotec spray-on exhaust coatings are so important with cars such as this where the exhaust system runs so close to the fuel tank. The dark, period finish on the exhaust – which you'll see in the video – stops the pipes from getting too hot. This makes the car perform better and also improves safety too!
In the video, you'll also see the Zircoflex, a ceramic-aluminium hybrid that helps protect the body work from the hottest parts of the car.
Zircotec also has benefits for closed cockpit cars, like the Ferrari 250MM Rebecca looks at in the video.
You can find out more about Zircotec over on Race Tech Mag or you can visit the Zircotec website, here.

Q: iPhone 7 - CPU Usage over 400%? I've been characterizing an app I've built on an iPhone 7 to test CPU usage.
Something that strikes as odd, however, is that the max CPU usage is over 400%. Doesn't an iPhone 7 max out at 400% for its 4 cores? Any idea as to why this might be happening?
Thanks!

How does an electromagnet work?
An electromagnet is a magnet that runs on electricity. … If a wire carrying an electric current is formed into a series of loops, the magnetic field can be concentrated within the loops. The magnetic field can be strengthened even more by wrapping the wire around a core.
A temporary magnet consisting of a long coil of insulated copper wire wrapped around a soft iron core is called an electromagnet. Construction and working: … The iron rod inside the coil becomes a strong electromagnet on passing a current. The magnetic field produced by an electromagnet is very strong.
The temporary magnet produced by electricity is called an electromagnet. Uses – They are used in telephones , telegraphs, electric motors, electric bells etc. Powerful electromagnets are used in cranes. Bullet trains use the principle of electromagnetism.
IT IS INTERESTING: Does your brain emit electromagnetic waves?
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. Electromagnets usually consist of wire wound into a coil. A current through the wire creates a magnetic field which is concentrated in the hole, denoting the centre of the coil.
A DC circuit has current circulating in one direction. … In alternating current (AC) electromagnets, used in transformers, inductors, and AC motors and generators, the magnetic field is constantly changing. This causes energy losses in their magnetic cores that are dissipated as heat in the core.
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off. Electromagnets usually consist of a large number of closely spaced turns of wire or coilthat create the magnetic field.
Factors that affect the strength of electromagnets are the nature of the core material, strength of the current passing through the core, the number of turns of wire on the core and the shape and size of the core.
Electromagnets can be created by wrapping a wire around an iron nail and running current through the wire. The electric field in the wire coil creates a magnetic field around the nail. In some cases, the nail will remain magnetised even when removed from within the wire coil.
IT IS INTERESTING: Is a sound wave an electromagnetic wave?
The strength of an electromagnet depends on:
The strength of the current passing through the coil, the greater the current, the greater the strength. …
The number of turns in the coils, the greater the number of coils, the greater the strength. …
Whether the core is made up of a soft or hard magnetic material.
Electromagnets are used in all kinds of electric devices, including hard disk drives, speakers, motors, and generators, as well as in scrap yards to pick up heavy scrap metal. They're even used in MRI machines, which utilize magnets to take photos of your insides!
If a current carrying conductor is imagined to be held in right hand such that thumb points in direction of current,then curled fingers of hand indicate the direction of magnetic field. If current flows in upward direction then direction will be anticlockwise.
Magneto Motive Force is expressed as a current, I flowing through a coil of N turns. The magnetic field strength of an electromagnet is therefore determined by the ampere turns of the coil with the more turns of wire in the coil the greater will be the strength of the magnetic field.
The simplest form of an electromagnet is a metal rod (such as an iron nail) that you wrap some insulated wire on that.
All electromagnets work on the principle that an electric current in a wire produces a magnetic field. … Simply coil a length of wire round a piece of iron, such as a long iron nail, and pass an electric current through the wire. When the current flows a magnetic field is created and the iron becomes magnetised.

It's been 4 years since we started going to BBQ Fest in Owensboro, KY. The food is great, the ambiance is fantastic, and I have great friends to hang out with before, during and after. I only wish I could eat more when I'm there.
The International BBQFest is a cooking competition for local charitable organizations to raise funds to support their causes. It also offers a street fair of sorts for vendors to peddle their wares. Even local BBQ places have stands – Old Hickory Bar-B-Q is delectable.
There was a band playing on the street that I really enjoyed. I was not prepared to stand around and listen for as long as I did. I wish I had found a place to sit and enjoy their music more.
The festival goes for 2 days, it starts Friday and lasts through Saturday night. It's always the second weekend of May, so it's been pretty easy to plan. I learned about Burgoo here, and had my first taste of mutton here. The last couple years I've perused the art vendors and purchased something from them. This year Lori even got a bonsai tree, she named it Mr. Miyagi.
There's even a carnival for the kids to get on rides. This all takes place on the streets of downtown Owensboro and along its beautiful waterfront. Who knew the Ohio River could be so picturesque?
When we weren't stuffing our faces, Jimmy's family graciously hosted us and as is tradition now, I always find something fun for us to cook. This year I made Beef Stew, as inspired by Shokugeki no Soma. I managed to snag a picture of Lori stealing the garnish. At night we played board games, this year I brought Power Grid.
The extended weekend is always a lot of fun and very relaxing. I can't wait for 2018!


This golden oldie dates back to a time when I didn't even have a suitable gaming machine and had to make do with popping round friends' houses to sample the latest delights. Sort-of follow-up to Another World, Flashback was an ambitious platform adventure that melded the super slick animation of Prince of Persia with the plot of Total Recall, resulting in something that was quite unique in terms of production values and storytelling. Anybody that played this back in the day no doubt spent the first half hour of gameplay simply unholstering and holstering the gun, over and over, marvelling at Conrad Hart's rotoed leather jacket.
A game that needs no introduction, unless you're some kind of young thing that doesn't respect his gaming history, Monkey Island is a genre classic, the very pinnacle of the point-and-click adventure. Well, unless you prefer Sam & Max. Or Full Throttle. Or Grim Fandango (ok, ok, so you didn't actually point or click in that game, but it's the same genre!). The piratical adventures of Guybrush Threepwood riffed on all the great pirate stories and also succeeded in being one of the funniest games ever made. They don't write 'em like this anymore (well, unless you're Tim Schafer – see below).
Bioware still haven't surpassed the storytelling in this Star Wars-set roleplaying epic and, tellingly, neither has George Lucas. KotOR captures the magic of Star Wars as we remember it from our childhoods, hitting all the right notes and showing an understanding for both the fans and the source material that was sorely lacking from the movie prequels. Bioware's two subsequent games, Jade Empire and Mass Effect, haven't come anywhere near to the effortless sleight of hand performed by the game's narrative, which is always in service to the wonderfully memorable characters.
As you may have noticed elsewhere on this site, I'm not too keen on Bethesda's Oblivion or their forthcoming, seemingly dreary interpretation of the Fallout series. Part of this negativity comes from my massively positive experience with their earlier game Morrowind, a majestic achievement in experimental gameplay and unbridled ambition. There's a depth of imagination and maturity to the island landscape of Vvardenfell that no other game has come close to bettering. Despite clunky combat, Morrowind remains one of the most atmospheric games ever made, packed full of fascinating politics, religion and incidental stories waiting to be stumbled across. Please, Bethesda, bring back the team that made this classic!
The big surprise of 2007 was Portal, a tiny little FPS that snuck into The Orange Box compilation. While most of us were eager to get our hands on Half Life 2: Episode 2 and Team Fortress, it was Portal that turned out to be the collection's gem. Taking the portal concept tentatively explored in the much more generic (but still good fun) Prey, Portal follows it through to its natural conclusion, crafting a unique series of puzzle before pulling one of the best and most mischievous plot twists in gaming history. Portal is evidence that short games most definitely have a future.
Brit developer Introversion's breakout game, Darwinia melds Cannon Fodder with the RTS genre to create a highly unique experience. Its TRON-inspired world is a marvel of imagination and lateral game design. Click here for my full review.
Though the passing years have dated the turn-of-the-millennium, conspiracy-laden, X Files-inspired story, Deus Ex remains a milestone in game narratives. Throwing out all the established rules of both the FPS and RPG, it depicts a nightmarish urban future blighted by terrorist fervour and overactive government surveillance following an attack on New York (it's worth noting, though, that the game was released pre-9/11). Playing as cybernetically enhanced operative JC Denton the plot interweaves conspiracy theories, paranoia and globe-trotting to tremendous effect. The scope of the game is seemingly limitless and it's a tragedy that no other developer has yet attempted to follow in its footsteps.
On the surface, this is a typical console platformer mixed with a smidgeon of stealth gameplay and a quirky art design. Beyond Good & Evil is very much greater than the sum of its parts, though, mostly due to its charming characters and world, which have an innocence and exuberance that is pleasantly distant from the usual marines-with-guns theme prevalent in the industry. That the protagonist is a woman is probably no coincidence, nor the fact that the few marines-with-guns that are present are most certainly the bad guys. Discarding weaponry for a camera and explosions for wit, this is a rare and memorable experience indeed.
For me, game design doesn't get much better than Half Life 2 and its episodic follow-ups. Valve have honed their craft to such a degree that their achievements appear effortless; they leap over boundaries and hurdles that bring down other developers, constantly innovating and pushing the enevelope in unexpected directions. On the surface, Half Life 2 sounds fairly generic – you are the lone warrior that can stop an alien invasion. What really lingers in the mind are the characters, subtle, indirect storytelling, natural environments and instantly appealing combat. Throw in what remains to this day some of the most iconic and efficient art and level design in gaming history and there's no way to look at Half Life 2 as anything other than a classic.
Endlessly inventive, Psychonauts is always bringing you something new. Just as you think you've got it sussed, it pulls another genius idea from the mind of creator Tim Schafer and wraps it in wildly imaginative and gleeful vision and sound. This is another game that refuses to play by the rules, despite initial impressions of being a standard platformer. Given that Psychonauts is about the power of the human mind, it's appropriate that it is so full of ideas. Fresh, funny and fabulous.
Disclaimer: As with all 'top 10' style lists, ask me in a month, or even tomorrow, and I'll probably give you a completely different selection.
I own and have played BF2, but it's never really taken hold of me in the same way it did everyone else. It's a problem I have with multiplayer gaming in general, in that I don't find it particularly enjoyable to play with a bunch of anonymous people I don't know. They tend to fall into one of two groups, being either vastly better than me or hugely immature, which means I generally enjoy single player games more – for some reason they seem to have more character, which is bizarre given that they just use simple AI compared to the real people in BF2. I'm sure this will change as more people discover gaming and it gets a wider demographic, though.
It's not that I dislike multiplayer gaming, though – when playing friends, or at the very least 'people that I know', it can be a blast. That's one reason I'm really looking forward to Left 4 Dead – it looks like it'll be a very intimate multiplayer experience.
On the other hand, I do get in a fair bit of Team Fortresss 2. While in theory it should fall into the same category as BF2, the strong sense of character in the locations, gameplay and player classes make it more akin to a single player game for me – when I see a Heavy laughing his head off and spraying the enemy with bullets, it's not just some random kid on the Internet, it's a proper Russian minigun-wielding maniac.

ANKARA, Turkey — After lengthy meetings with the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Senator Lindsey Graham called on Saturday for a slower, smarter withdrawal of American troops from Syria to avoid setting off a broader war and a nightmare for Turkey.
Mr. Graham, Republican of South Carolina, has a long familiarity with Turkey and its place in the NATO alliance, and he said he was on a mission to ensure that the American withdrawal announced by President Trump in December did not cause greater damage that would be against United States interests in the long run.
"I can understand the desire to withdraw, but withdrawal without a plan is chaos," he told a news briefing in Ankara, the Turkish capital. "It would be Iraq on steroids," he warned, in a reference to how the Islamic State gained power after the withdrawal of American forces from the country in 2011.
Mr. Graham's trip to Turkey came after an aborted visit by the White House national security adviser, John R. Bolton, who left the country without meeting with Mr. Erdogan. Infuriated by comments Mr. Bolton had made in Israel that Turkey would be forced to ensure that Kurdish forces were protected, Mr. Erdogan canceled a proposed meeting.
Mr. Graham met with Mr. Erdogan for over two hours, and described it as a "direct and productive meeting" on Friday. Then, on an impromptu invitation from the Turkish president, the senator joined him at a concert by the Turkish pianist Fazil Say, which he described as one of the best evenings of his life.
Turkish officials have not commented on Mr. Graham's meeting in Ankara beyond confirming that they occurred. Defense Minister Hulusi Akar, who also met with Mr. Graham on Friday, said in a statement that the United States had not kept its promises to remove YPG forces from Manbij and promised that Turkey would continue to combat terrorism along its border.
Contrary to Mr. Trump's declaration, the defeat of the Islamic State, also known as ISIS, had not been completely achieved yet, he added.
"If you walk away, ISIS will come back and create a nightmare," Mr. Graham said in an interview. Turkey's strategic concerns had to be taken into account, and Iran kept from seizing Syria's oil fields, he added.
He said that Mr. Trump's plan for a withdrawal could be achieved, but with more time for planning. The 2,000 United States special forces troops in northeastern Syria could be withdrawn and replaced with a new mission and a smaller force to ensure the Islamic State did not resurface and prevent the Syrian government and Iranian forces from taking over the territory, he said.
Mr. Graham has long criticized the United States' policy of arming and training the Kurdish People's Protection Units in Syria, also known as Y.P.G., saying that it works against the interests of Turkey, which is a strategic ally of the United States and NATO. The Y.P.G. is affiliated with the Kurdistan Workers' Party in Turkey. The United States and Turkey have both designated that group a terrorist organization, saying that it works against the interests of Turkey, which is a strategic ally of the United States and NATO.
To withdraw and leave the Kurdish fighters with weapons supplied by the United States was "insane," the senator said.
Gen. Joseph F. Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has a plan, he added. American forces would maintain control of air space in eastern Syria, and other international forces could continue support for the Syrian Democratic Forces, which have been working with American forces to combat the Islamic State. Both France and Britain have units in Syria.
Mr. Graham said the most important step to prevent a broader war and a Turkish invasion was to ensure that the road map for the city of Manbij in northern Syria went ahead. Under that plan, Y.P.G. forces would withdraw and a local council acceptable to all sides, including Turkey, would take over the city's administration.
The United States could move away from what Mr. Trump has called the "endless war" but still meet national security objectives to "protect an ally from a problem it created," he said.

ECT * hosted a remembrance ceremony for Professor Renzo Leonardi, the "father" of Trentino physics and of the Proton Therapy Center
Professor Renzo Leonardi, one of the "fathers" of physics in Trento and of the Povo department of the University, as well as of ECT *, the European Center for Theoretical Nuclear Physics at Fondazione Bruno Kessler, passed away on July 6, at the age of 79
The professor, one of the founders of the Trento Proton Therapy Center, was remembered this morning with a ceremony attended by numerous authorities from the academic world but also by local politicians, including the Province councilor for Economic and Employment Development, the mayor of Trento, ECT* director Jochen Wambach, FBK Board member Dr. Anna Perini (representing also secretary-general Andrea Simoni), University of Trento President Paolo Collini, Physics Department director Antonio Miotello. The ceremony was held precisely at one of Leonardi's "creatures", the ECT*: established in 1993 within the former Trentino Institute of Culture, now FBK, with the support of the international scientific community, it is considered by the European Union as a "Major research European Infrastructure " and annually attracts hundreds of researchers to Villazzano for conferences and projects of high scientific value.
In the talks that followed one another, Leonardi was remembered as a scientist capable of combining top-level theoretical research with scientific-technological impacts, but also as a scholar who made two apparently distant fields of knowledge interact, Physics and art, by virtue of his recognized competence in this field as well, with particular reference to Flemish painting. Leonardi had received his education at the Normale di Pisa and at the University of Bologna. After becoming a professor in theoretical physics in 1971, his scientific career had continued in Genoa and Catania, finally leading him to Trento in 1977. Among other things, Leonardi had developed a strong interest in the field of Nuclear Physics applied to Medicine. This had prompted him, since 2002, to propose to the Province the creation in Trento of a Proton Therapy Center, that would be at the forefront in the treatment of particular types of cancer. A Center that became reality in 2014. But Leonardi, as recalled by the Province councilor for economic development and research, also glimpsed the new frontiers of research, in the biotechnology field, which ultimately led to the establishment of Cibio.
Leonardi was a scholar "sensitive to the concrete impact of theoretical research, capable of improving people's lives", Perini pointed out, a multifaceted man with many interests, a regular in the most prestigious academic and research European and global organizations with the rare gift of knowing how to dialogue with institutions, with those who were called to decide on the creation of a new research center or the adoption of innovative technology. This is a summary of the scholar remembered today by many colleagues and friends, a great scientist and a great humanist, free from the temptation to have people talk about him, capable of retaining his poise in all circumstances.
"When Leonardi arrived in Trento – Collini said – the city was not yet a center of academic and scientific excellence like it is today. Leonardi was among those who knew how to cultivate a wider vision for the area, and he always did it, in every challenge he undertook in his life".
The ceremony, which culminated with the dedication to the scholar of one of the halls of the Villa Tambosi Center, went on with the talks by Georges Ripka, from the University of Paris-Saclay, by Marco Traini, from the University of Trento – who told the audience the totally engaging story of Leonardi's study of a Van Eick miniature depicting the birth of John the Baptist – and by some other officials who have had the opportunity to get to know and work with Leonardi in the past.

Huddersfield town centre
Developer abandons plans for supermarket at former Kirklees College site
The scheme was approved in June 2016 - but developer Wiggett Construction has pulled out of the scheme
Nick Lavigueur
Fire damage at former Kirklees College, Huddersfield.
The plan to build a supermarket at the former Kirklees College site has been shelved.
It has emerged the developer behind the scheme pulled out of the much anticipated revamp some time late last year.
Oldham based Wiggett Construction first revealed its plans to transform the mothballed college site next to Huddersfield ring road in 2015.
The so called Trinity Central scheme included a bigger brand new Lidl to replace the ageing store further down Castlegate.
The 1970s buildings off Trinity Street, which have become a target for vandals and arsonists, were to be demolished.
The scheme was approved in June 2016 and work was said to be imminent.
Trinity Central proposal for the former Kirklees College site featuring a Lidl supermarket
Amid the spate of fires last autumn, questions were asked about why no work had begun.
At the time Kirklees College said there was a delay with the contract but did not reveal what the issue was.
But it has now admitted Wiggett has pulled out and it is in talks with a new firm.
Melanie Brooke, Acting Deputy Principal at Kirklees College, said: "Although Wiggett Construction no longer have an interest in the New North Road site, the college has been working with an alternative developer, who are currently carrying out some initial site investigation work.
"We are hopeful that the college will be in a position to announce exciting new plans in the near future as we are keen to see the site developed with a new organisation on board."
Leader of Kirklees Council, Clr David Sheard, said he knew there had been issues with the deal but had not been given a specific reason why it had fallen apart.
Wiggett had spent about two years planning the revamp.
Along with the new Lidl it had also compiled plans to revamp the historic premises on the other side of the site.
The former Kirklees College building
A deal to build retirement flats on the car park off New North Road had apparently been signed and talks were under way to bring a health facility in to the former Huddersfield Infirmary.
Wiggett had vowed to retain the architecturally significant parts of the site, including the statue of Edward VII.
Urgent meeting held after 9th blaze at derelict Kirklees College
The scheme was given approval by Kirklees Council's strategic planning committee at the second attempt, following initial concerns about the design of the Lidl.
A spokesman for Wiggett told the Examiner they had pulled out "months ago" but they did not want to say more.
Clr Andrew Cooper, whose Newsome ward covers the site, said: "It's disappointing we've got this far along the road and we've been let down.
"It seems to be a poor environment for developers at the moment as we've seen with Newsome Mills, which had planning permission but work never began."

Dragon Quest X Possibly in the works…
News RPG Wii Square Enix
Dustin Spencer May 3, 2011 No Comments
If you are a Dragon Quest fan, then you should know that this year marks the 25th anniversary for the RPG series. Thankfully, we have a new Rocket Slime title confirmed for release sometime this year on the 3DS (hopefully outside of Japan that is) and now we have something much larger coming our way if these new rumors end up being true.
At a recent Dragon Quest III concert, series composer Koichi Sugiyama was reported to have made a statement that he was presently working on music for Dragon Quest X, which was stated to be headed to the Wii sometime in 2012. Buzz for Dragon Quest X has been circulating for quite a while now and this latest development certainly shows progress is being made for it's completion. While we might not see another main game in the franchise for a while, I still would enjoy seeing something big for the series birthday and I would expect Square to have some kind of announcement forthcoming later this year.

Bio-D is a local success story with a strong export-led growth model that is putting their unique products on the world map. For more than 25 years, Bio-D has been creating household cleaning products and, more recently, personal care products that are environmentally friendly, effective and affordable; products which 'don't cost the Earth'.
Bio-D's product range includes hand sanitisers and multi surface cleaners, washing up liquid, toilet cleaner (found to be 2.5 times more effective than a well-known competitor) and laundry and dishwasher powders and liquids. It also produces more unusual lines - such as a yoga mat cleaner and a high-end sanitiser for cleaning up after pampered pooches – for other brands, including a luxury Scandinavian company. Bio-D has recently expanded into personal care products for some of its clients (with plans to launch its own range in the future). All Bio-D products are free from artificial preservatives and perfumes, and make up the only 100% hypoallergenic product range in the UK - meaning products can be used even by those who suffer from conditions such as eczema and asthma. Bio-D products, for example, leave out the controversial chemical commonly known as MI (methylisothiazolinone) – a preservative found in everyday household cleaning products, baby wipes and cosmetics. MI was recently highlighted in the national press and healthcare sector as being responsible for an 'epidemic' of painful skin allergies such as eczema, asthma and rhinitis. Their pioneering ideas and product range has resulted in Bio-D becoming the 'best buy' winners across many categories in the leading UK ethical magazine 'Ethical Consumer', as well as the recipient of several other awards.
Lloyd Atkin's passion for R&D has added great value to Bio-D and significantly contributed towards their economic growth, as well as their sustained and new market share. Lloyd said; "Bio-D's main priorities are to continue with our holistic approach, continue to innovate and continue to 'do the right thing'. What sets us aside is that we remain independent and are a local British manufacturer. Everyone wants to support a British manufacturer, a kudos that greatly appeals to our export markets such as China and it also helps that we are so ethical".
To remain true to their philosophy and produce ethically viable products, Bio-D have 100% traceability on all their ingredients and packaging and are accredited with the ISO 14001 environmental standard (less than 1% of companies within the UK meet this). Their range exclusively conforms to food standard grade BSEN1276, ensuring products help to safely control traces of E.coli, Salmonella and MRSA, and the company is a member of Sedex, while following its own strict fair trade policies. Their products are approved by Cruelty Free International, Allergy UK and the Vegan Society. And did you know that if everyone in the UK used Bio-D laundry products, 67% less water would be required to purify the water through sewage treatment plants – thanks to the natural ingredients they use? Which equates to a saving of2.5 million litres of water (or one Olympic sized swimming pool) per household!
Turnover generated by Bio-D in 2015-16 was £1.55m and for the financial year 2016-17 is forecast to reach an impressive £3.5m. The company has been so successful that they have introduced a further production line – and with a third line also anticipated the company are looking at moving to continental shift patterns and operating seven days per week (with employee endorsement, of course). Bio-D really is gearing up for a further step-change with the business growing from 13 employees to 25 in 2016 alone. Lloyd said: "we are producing 100,000 units per week, a third of which are being exported". Bio-D began exporting in 2005 and now exports to 19 countries including China, Russia, Taiwan and South Korea; it's their biggest growth area and the company recently appointed an international business graduate to assist with market research, as well as working closely with the DIT and British embassies. Bio-D products have a perfect fit with countries such as China and South Korea who are looking at addressing their energy and environmental issues.
While Bio-D's product packaging is already 100% recyclable, the company is looking to start an exciting project with fellow local Hull company Floreon on developing bioplastic packaging - where manufacturers and consumers can return empty drums/containers to be turned into lactic acid, to be used in future bioplastic packaging, instead of the containers being dumped in landfills or recycled. A fantastic story of ethical innovation created locally.
Bio-D Chairman Chris Zanetti has helped develop Bio-D's three- year strategy, which is revisited every year. The strategy has increased Bio-D's global market share and helped retain its presence in the UK independent retail sector, and the firm recently secured a bespoke contract with a high-end UK supermarket retailer. This is certainly just the beginning of Bio-D's success story.

Increasing the scope of the resazurin-resorufin smart tracer system in hydrologic and biogeochemical sciences: the effects of storage duration and temperature on preservation
Ben Christopher Howard*, Ian Baker, Nicholas Kettridge, Sami Ullah, Stefan Krause
The resazurin (raz)-resorufin (rru) smart tracer system has led to significant advances in hydrologic and biogeochemical sciences but its application has been limited in scope and geography by the short duration that it has been assumed samples can be reliably stored before analysis. For the first time, we quantify the effects of sample storage duration and temperature on measured raz and rru concentrations in order to identify robust storage protocols. Raz/rru concentrations equivalent to those typically used in field and laboratory applications were prepared in three different mediums (deionized water, groundwater, and surface water). Samples were stored at 20°C, 5°C, and −20°C, representing average room, refrigerator, and freezer temperatures. Analysis of raz/rru concentration changes were conducted systematically during an 84-day period, with higher frequency of analysis in the first 7 d. For samples stored at room temperature, changes of up to 22.6% were observed over the initial 24 h. In contrast, for samples stored in the refrigerator and freezer, changes of up to 8.4% and 6.9% were observed in the same period, respectively. Freezing samples provided the best preservation, yielding a maximum of ~ 10% change after 14 d compared to a maximum of ~ 30% change when cooled. It is generally recommended that raz/rru samples be stored cooled for up to 48 h and frozen for up to 14 d. This offers exciting opportunities to broaden the application of the raz-rru system to undertake measurements in wider geographical (remote) locations and at increased sampling frequencies.

Were You Surprised By Netflix's BIG Move?
Hello MarketClub members everywhere. If you were surprised by the 20% jump by Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) yesterday, you weren't paying attention to the Trade Triangles. On October 3rd the monthly Trade Triangle triggered at $101.27 indicating that the major trend has once again resumed to the upside and that you should now be long this stock. That Trade Triangle signal was a full 15 days before today's big jump.
In today's video update, I will be analyzing Netflix and giving you some upside projections for this popular streaming video service.
I urge all MarketClub members and traders to pay close attention to the Trade Triangles as they often times signal big moves before anyone else has a clue of what's going on.
In addition to Netflix will be taking a look at the gold and crude oil market as well as the major indices. But before we do that I would like to bring your attention to the POLL that we ran on Monday. The poll numbers indicated that 60% of our members expected the indices to move lower.
Only 21% of all members expected the market to move higher.
What was interesting to me was the fact that 19% of you which was the lowest polling number expected the market to stay around the same levels. Now I probably would have voted at the 19% level, simply because the Trade Triangles are showing a sideways action at the moment. Once you start projecting what you think is going to happen to the market in the future it becomes somewhat of a risky proposition. Predicting the future is a game that is very hard to win. It is better to go with the known facts you have at the time and adjust your thinking as time goes on.
Just remember that old market adage "The trend is your friend" It's where you make the most profit. And what finds the trend and keeps you in the trend in better than anything else out there it's - MarketClub's Trade Triangle technology. I know this sounds like and advertisement, but I really do believe this is the best program for anyone trading or investing in the market. It has been very good to my family and me, and I'm very confident it will be very good for you and your family too.

Qatar and the UAE Face Off Over World's First 5G Network Deployment
Qatari network operator, Ooredoo, claims to have launched the world's first 5G network in the 3.5GHz spectrum band.
The network covers parts of downtown Doha, with plans for it to be rolled out across the rest of the Qatari capital in due course.
"Today, Ooredoo and Qatar make history. We are the first company in the world to offer access to 5G technology and services, and the people of Qatar are the first to have access to the incredible benefits this technological upgrade will bring. We dedicate this important milestone to the people of Qatar and to our beloved leaders, who have encouraged this step in building the knowledge-based economy of Qatar," said Waleed Al Sayed, CEO, Ooredoo Qatar.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, few details have been released about the speed, latency and capacity of Ooredoo's "5G" network, so we are currently unable to verify the extent to which Ooredoo's new network can be truly called 5G.
There is also the issue of handset compatibility to consider. Ooredoo states that "Access to the Ooredoo 5G Supernet will require a 5G compatible device from Ooredoo", however, at the moment, no such devices exist.
Abu Dhabi based telco Etisalat is also claiming to have launched the world's first commercial 5G network, according to a report in the Gulf News.
"5G stands out as a game-changer with rich potential, an evolution that would elevate services, performance, and enablement. It is the natural progression as part of our network modernisation journey, the anticipated technical specifications are promising, bringing along various desirable features and functionalities," Saleh Al Abdooli, CEO, Etisalat Group, said in a statement.
Once again, details of the network's specifications are sketchy at best, so verifying its 5G credentials is a little difficult. However, in a live demonstration, Etisalat showcased downlink throughput of more than 5Gbps on the site level and more than 1.5Gbps on a commercial device.
Suffice it to say that while both operators have demonstrated the lightning fast potential of 5G services with some very interesting deployments, neither has managed to launch a comprehensive, commercialised 5G network – yet! – Total Telecom

Military Humor - Infantry & Sons of the SLR (Special)
Color Military Green
Military Green / S Military Green / M Military Green / L Military Green / XL Military Green / 2XL
We have brought these 2 designs together for a one off special edition by request of one of our Customers.
This design just about suits any scenario in most parts of the Armed Forces around the World. It is a given that if you have been on the lash you either have a tough day or some hard phys the next day. Little things like hangovers cannot get in the way of Operations. So here you have it, the design that celebrates and commemorates all those time that you have found a new set of lungs somewhere and cracked on.
The L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle, also known as the SLR (Self-Loading Rifle), by the Canadian Army designation C1A1 (C1) or in the US as the "inch pattern" FAL,[nb 1] is a British version of the Belgian FN FAL battle rifle (Fusil Automatique Léger, "Light Automatic Rifle") produced by the Belgian armaments manufacturer Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN). The L1A1 was produced under licence and has seen use in the Australian Army, Canadian Army, Indian Army, Jamaica Defence Force, Malaysian Army, New Zealand Army, Rhodesian Army, Singapore Army, South African Army and the British Armed Forces.[3]
The original FAL was designed in Belgium, while the components of the "inch-pattern" FALs are manufactured to a slightly modified design using British imperial units. Many sub-assemblies are interchangeable between the two types, while components of those sub-assemblies may not be compatible. Notable incompatibilities include the magazines and the butt-stock, which attach in different ways. Most FALs also use SAE threads for barrels and assemblies. The only exceptions are early prototype FALs, and the breech threads only on Israeli and Indian FALs. All others have standard Imperial or "unified" inch-standard threads throughout.
Most Commonwealth pattern FALs are semi-automatic only. A variant named L2A1/C2A1 (C2), meant to serve as a light machine gun in a support role, is also capable of fully automatic fire. Differences from the L1A1/C1 include a heavy barrel, squared front sight (versus the "V" on the semi-automatic models), a handguard that doubles as a foldable bipod, and a larger 30-round magazine although it could also use the normal 20-round magazines. Only Canada and Australia used this variant. However, Australia, the UK and New Zealand used Bren light machine guns converted to fire the 7.62×51mm NATO cartridge for use in the support role. Canadian C1s issued to naval and army personnel were also capable of fully automatic fire.

How do you forget the words to your own song? Bryan "Baby" Williams, one-half founding member of Cash Money Records, needs to sit his old a%s down. The Young Money Ent. performance at the EBT……(my bad) B.E.T. Awards was bad enough cuz' of preteen girls dancing onstage to their hit 'I Wish I Could F$@K Every Girl in the World', but when Baby brought his 1998 'Ball Til You Fall' mentality on stage, it was a wrap for me. He is obviously no match for Lil' Wayne's lyrical ability. His lyrics never rhyme and there's a guarantee you'll hear these words in his rhymes: 'like father like son', 'ball 'til you fall', 'uptown stunter', 'I thought you knew', 'paper plates', 'already', 'sittin on'. The label is called 'Young Money Entertainment' for a reason. Baby you don't fit anywhere in this equation. So please fall back. And Drake, you are the most talked about rapper since 50 Cent. Everybody is waiting on your debut cd to drop. You closed the B.E.T. Awards Show without even having a record deal. Just on the strength of your mixtape. A word of advice….Image is everything in hip-hop. You performing that garbage with Young Money brought your stock down a tad. You are our only hip-hop savior. Please don't ruin your chance before you even come out the gate. Make better choices in the future.
Are the Hot Boys really reuniting? Several members of the group have been teasing us about them getting back together. If this is true do you know what this could do to the rap game? The members are Lil' Wayne, who's the only member still signed to Cash Money/Universal, Juvenile and BG signed to Atlantic, Mannie Fresh, who is independent, and Turk, who I think is still locked up. I'm all for the reunion, but I do question the motives. Back in the day before Weezy was crowned 'the Greatest Rapper Alive', Juvie and the rest of the crew were talking real greasy about Lil' Wayne and Baby. Juvie accused the label of stealing concert proceeds and basically lying about how much money the group was making. Eventually everyone left Cash Money except Wayne. Fast Forward to the present….Everything that Weezy touches turns to gold. What have you heard from the former members of the Hot Boys lately? Not a d$#n thing? Of course the rest of the group wants to ride Lil' Wayne's coat tails. Juvie and the guys have to step up their game. Are they still relevant in hip-hop? All we can do is wait. Guys don't let us down!

The Pablo Palazuelo Foundation
Fondo de la coleccion
Temoorary Exhibition
Pablo Palazuelo. Unseen. The artist's collection
Pablo Palazuelo Unseen The Artists Collection 2
An exhibition which, through 48 works, explores the creative career of one of the major Spanish artists of the second half of the 20th century.
The Cajamurcia Las Claras Cultural Centre hosts an exhibition of previously unseen work by Pablo Palazuelo as part of the Cajamurcia Semana Grande Festival.
The exhibition held in Valladolid moved to the Las Claras Cultural Centre in Murcia. The curators of this show were Gonzalo Sotelo and Marisa Oropesa, and the exhibition catalogue was published under the title: Pablo Palazuelo inédito. La colección del artista.
The exhibition «Pablo Palazuelo. Unseen. The artist's collection», taking place at the Cajamurcia Las Claras Cultural Centre, features 50 works by the Madrid-born painter and sculptor and is being organised by the Fundación Cajamurcia with the collaboration of the Pablo Palazuelo Foundation, which has provided the works on display.
The exhibition is open to the public at the Cajamurcia Las Claras Cultural Centre, as part of the Cajamurcia "Semana Grande" Festival which, like every year, includes a series of shows from leading figures in the visual arts.
On this occasion, the chosen artist is the painter, engraver and sculptor Pablo Palazuelo (Madrid, 1915-2007), considered one of the key figures of 20th-century Spanish art, and one of the nation's leading abstract artists on a global level. He won the Premio Velázquez award for Visual Arts in 2004, and received the Gold Medal for Fine Arts in 1981, and his work features in the collections of the world's most important art museums.
Belda, Rodríguez-Spiteri Palazuelo, Oropesa y Martínez
Palazuelo began his artistic career as a painter, being one of Spain's first artists to embrace abstraction as a visual language, and one of our first abstract painters to receive recognition from French and international critics during the early 1950s. He would later embark on a new period in which he started to work within sculpture; to do so he had to learn how to lend volume and body to the lines and flat planes that made up his paintings.
Around 50 works, of which seven are sculptures, make up this exhibition of previously unseen work, organised by the Cajamurcia Foundation with the collaboration of the Pablo Palazuelo Foundation.
Murcia: Fundación Cajamurcia. Legal deposit: VA-873-2012.
Exhibition: Pablo Palazuelo. Inédito. La colección del artista.
Where: Centro Cultural Las Claras Cajamurcia.

Kanye West proved why he's one of the most influential.
Say what you will about Kanye West and his clothing line and his arrogance, Kanye West is an undeniable performer.
While attending TIME's 100 Gala--in which he graced the magazine's cover and his wife also earned a spot among the 100 most influential--Kanye West hit the stage to perform his new hit "All Day" from his upcoming album So Help Me God, along with his classic "Gold Digger" and "New Slaves."
Check out clips from some of the performances below.
Mad we didn't get an invite.


Been rolling with a Ram army that seems nicely balanced but struggles against Magician of Alahan/Sparkling dependent builds.
Levelling the Paladin atm because I want Scourge-Living to make him a pretty brilliant fighter vs. Wolves and Alahan. Eventually want to get the Priest to Lv. 5 and start nuking from long range with him and the Necro vs. Humans and Undead, or take the Paladin vs. Wolves because they get close faster and hide behind cover.
Don't take Skull Warrior - imo not worth it at the AP cost. Not particularly looking at conscience either, it's an extra 12 AP on top of the +3 damage boost. Have 13,000 ducats, was saving eventually for Golem but happy to reinvest if I've made some errors somewhere.
It seems a very nice army you have there, maybe on the Skeleton Warrior lvl 2 I would have chosen Ferocious more than Hard-Boiled but the remaining party is very well balanced and I don't think you can get a more balanced army if you want to keep those units & combo. When your Black Paladin will reach lvl5, you can put away the Skeleton Warrior lvl2 and try giving Incapacitating Shaft to the 2 Skeleton Archers: slowing down the enemy is very useful in a Necro-based army!
- Gargoyle lvl2 Hard-boiled is always an obvious choice, while the third lvl ability is not so an easy choice: Dive Bomb is nice (I'm using it atm) however not so easy to use (you can't move the turn you use it), while Assassin may be very useful if you use 2 Gargoyles lvl3 and you have a lots of troops so that you can move both Gargoyles at the end of turn (you get in that way 2 attacks completely for free on an enemy units and that's very powerful). Moreover, since atm we can't reassign the abilities, maybe it's better to keep them lvl2, so that you can fit them more easily (APs wise) in your armies.
- The Priest "Inversion" is a very nice spell once you get used to it, much more than Aura of the Crepuscolar Princes atm (note that you can use it also on enemy units, and so you can do many nice tricks with it! ).
ferocious is useless unless you have some spare points. Why? right now the meta favor zerg tacticts and the heaviest unit you might face is the Rune guardian (TOU 13) or the Grave guardian. If im not mistaken you will deal still 6 or more damages to these units. Elites right now are non-existant and legendaries even less. In case you will be "lucky" and meet a legendary you have the exausting touch. I approve of hardboiled + martyr as the two skills fit perfectly together.
Use the skeleton archers lvl 1 as you will never ever feel the need to have ferocious in the current meta. I would invest these 18 AP on the pala (scourge living is pretty cool for 16 AP + increased faith area making his DAM 14 vs most units).
Other than that it gets down to personal preferences anyway the list is solid i think.
one more thing on the gargoyle...i dont know how "harboiled" is an obvious choice there. I took elusive and im very happy with it as the "bane" of the assault units is being surrounded as they are much easy to hit. For a mere 4 AP you can usually safely disengage vs 2 units or even more with defensive stance. I add that it allows to go straight for the enemy caster/ranged without having your precious assault unit life reduced by attacks of opportunity. I'm not a big fan of dive bomb and i prefer much more Sneak attack for its cost as you can safely attack other melee units. My tip is: wait for the next talent reset and give the gargoyle a go! Keep in mind that other than the skull warrior and flesh golem it is the only unit capabable of oneshotting a mage with an offensive (if charged). Elusive makes it a cheap reliable unit for its AP.
Yeah I've found it's a lot of quantity over quality in this meta, especially with basic ranged units. I don't think I've ever needed ferocious so will probably just buy new archers and save the AP to bounce the Black Paladin up to Lv. 5.
Deep Blue wrote: Keep in mind that other than the skull warrior and flesh golem it is the only unit capabable of oneshotting a mage with an offensive (if charged).
Sure? IIRC he didn't charge an Alahan Magician and dealt 19 damage on both hits..if the Wizard lost 1 toughness from the stun then he'd take 19+20=39 damage right? With all dem sparklings flying around you really need to kill the magician asap. Elusive + Sneak Attack seems nice, but should I throw Assassin on top of that as it's like 11 AP more?
