If you had styles for second day hair up your sleeve would you stop washing your hair every day?
Washing your hair every day is a drag. It's also drying to your hair so it's good to know some styles for second day hair. There are benefits to styling your hair on the second or even third day. It has more texture to work with so it typically holds better. Here are some ideas of pretty, polished styles for second day hair for you to try.
Top knots are the perfect choice when you're dealing with second or third day hair. It's a quick and easy choice that's perfect for a casual day hanging with friends or even for wearing in a work environment. Think of it as the messy bun's more elegant cousin. You can style a top knot by gathering your hair and twisting it in a circular motion, then securing it with a rubber band and bobby pins. Another way to create a top knot is to secure your hair into a ponytail and wrap your hair around, pinning as you go.

Back in the early 20th Century, modernist architects rejected walls and separation in favour of open plan work spaces which promoted equality and democracy. Open plan has dominated ever since, however, it is now proving to be a problematic format. We all know that our modern workforce favours a relaxed and flexible approach and with this in mind, the problems with open plan are clear. Lack of privacy is obvious but and business leaders now believe that open plan stymies creativity and teamwork. Ironically, open plan is anti-social because people feel they need to be quiet - critical telephone calls happen in the "privacy" of a corridor and meetings are held away from working desks.
I know that it is possible and desirable to create a dynamic, contemporary working environment that responds to the specific needs of your team because there are many business benefits for doing so. Existing staff will be motivated as you clearly understand their needs, and the best new talent will be attracted to your company. When your offices reflect your ethos and brand, visiting clients will clearly understand what it means to do business with you and are more likely to engage.
The way to create the perfect working space is by clearly defining exactly what every single staff member does and how they work together in sub teams. Alongside this, consider the environmental requirements of each role and the constraints and opportunities of your building. I usually find that a variety of workspaces are needed to satisfy the demands of team members at different times of the working week.
If you're considering revising your office layout, I would counsel you to be aware of talking to any suppliers before you've taken the time to work out exactly what you need your space to do. It is imperative that you really understand the nature of your work, your brand, your team and the spaces required before developing any design proposals. It may be that you need to seek expert help to undertake an impartial review before drawing up a clear brief, and ultimately a creative, bespoke concept.
Taking this time to create an innovative yet practical workspace will generate numerous benefits for your business over and over again. I think you will be surprised with quite how much impact it will have.


Hi there. I am a physio with 34 years behind me, and the international manipulative exam. May I say that hyper mobile joints do not tolerate being stretched? Even the reactive muscles that crave stretching are stabilizers and are needing outside help. Usually a pelvic brace for two months or so. A leather belt type of thing, not elastic. eating disorders (and antibiotics) can change your abilty to digest proteins, big molecules, and therefore you'd have less for repairs and making nice firm ligaments. This may be how you got hyper mobile; it is a very common scenario. I would like to throw out there that a naturopathic doctor could re-work your digestive system for hydrochloric acid to bile to enzymes to probiotics and allow you to heal again, due to protein building blocks getting into you. Those exhausted guarding muscles like massage, but not stretch usually. And a trial with a belt would show you if your body liked it or not. Some things just need to be held snug until they mend so they don;t tear themselves open again.
Hi Heather– thank you so much for your comment! I really appreciate all your advice –it's definitely food for thought! I'm really hoping the stretches I do are okay… I try to keep my weight as evenly balanced as possible, and not to contort my body too much. But it is definitely something to keep in mind, and I will ask my PT what she thinks. Thanks again!
I hope it is helpful. Thr thoracic spine and rib cage need to be mobilized in all possible dimensions as well, because the body will squeeze extra range of motion of the sacroiliac joint to compensate. The ribs should be mobilized in the front as well, up-and-down and to the sides, as well as all of the joints of the manubrium. The ribs should be mobilized in the front as well, up-and-down and to the sides, as well as all of the joints of the manubrium. They throw a large motor wait around and influence the pelvis significantly. The manubrium can really create a lot of twist down the spine, which cranks the pelvis open. If the leg lengths are uneven, then you have probably missed something; true leg length discrepancy's are incredibly rare. If the pelvis insists on being loose in spite of this, then the leather belt will show what it can do within a week. If it helps, you need to wear it for three months. I am very familiar with pelvises so feel free to ask for more pointers if this is useful for you. Cheers.

We Were Promised Jetpacks – 'Unravelling'
What's it like to grow up as a rock band? 'Unravelling!', answer We Were Promised Jetpacks in their own smart and unpretentious way.

Exploring subtlety
WE WERE PROMISED JETPACKS began developing their songwriting with their second record In The Pit Of The Stomach already and now lift it to a new level on Unravelling – resulting in a more subtle, gentle and thoughtful sound. As good as the crashing indie-anthems of These Four Walls might be, these guys are smart enough to know that you can't go all-in all the time. What's the use of another eleven versions of Quiet Little Voices anyway?
Although WE WERE PROMISED JETPACKS do not actually share family bonds, they still seem to have a very close relationship with each other. These guys, despite their young age, went through a lot already. So maybe one reason why they keep growing as a band up to the point of such a mature record like Unravelling is that WE WERE PROMISED JETPACKS is more than just four (now five) decent musicians.
Space and timing
While the Scots tended to drench their songs in devastating noises on previous records, Unravelling is much more about leaving every part of the band its space to contribute to the songs. Especially Adam Thompson's voice is in excellent shape here, rich and very conscience about which tone is needed in which place. Unravelling presents WE WERE PROMISED JETPACKS as a band being able to integrate post-rock, punk, indie and emo without making it seem pretentious.
Three records, three strikes: WE WERE PROMISED JETPACKS' 'Unravelling' shows what an organically grown band is capable of achieving.
Lessons in Perseverance: We Were Promised Jetpack's 'The More I Sleep The Less I Dream'
After We Were Promised Jetpacks recently revealed that they changed labels to Big Scary Monsters, the beloved Scotsmen now officially announced their new, fourth album, 'The More I Sleep The Less I Dream'. We got the new single 'Hanging In' streaming for you below as well as facts, trivia and some words of the guys themselves about this new record.

These are concrete steps to apply Design Thinking in combination with the agile methodology.
So, Design Sprint differs by giving speed and result in a short time.
Aimed at entrepreneurs, project managers, human resources. Especially recommended for those who want to innovate in their companies or want to dynamize a project that does not advance.
Given by the Imaguru team that went to Stanford University (USA) to learn the Design Thinking methodology in 2013 and since then has been advising companies for 5 years. Other Imaguru clients include such corporations as Grupo Raiffeisenbank, Turkcell, etc.
The event is in person and will take place at Imaguru Start Hub, in Madrid's Silicon River.
Cost: €50 plus the Eventbrite Commission. Discount for teams 10% per person.
Attendance certificate will be given to participants.

Calming/Relaxant (Nervines, Antispasmodics) | Seeds ~ Remember Nature!
Nervines are herbs that specifically support the nervous system, so not all calming herbs are nervines. It does not refer to herbs that are sedative, but rather herbs that relax contracted tissues, such as antispasmodics.
Calming herbs have a range of actions including tonic nervines to mildly or strongly calming effects. They are used to relieve muscle tension and spasms, some kinds of pain, circular thoughts, sleeplessness, and the occasional worry we all experience from time to time.

What is the first thing you think of when you encounter the term scrum? Do you think of rugby players packed together, heads down, trying to gain possession of the ball? Or rather, do you think of something a bit less aggressive, like a project management methodology?
If you're here for sports, you're out of luck. But if you want to know all about ScrumMasters, specifically career opportunities, compensation, and the best places to start your career, then you have come to the right place!
Learn more on the tools like Kanban, Seiso, Kaizen, and more with the Certified ScrumMaster Training Course. Enroll today!
Let's dive into the world of the ScrumMaster, starting with what one is.
What Is a ScrumMaster?
Before you understand what a ScrumMaster is, you need to know what Scrum is, and what better definition than the one provided by the developers themselves? According to the site, "Scrum is a framework within which people can address complex adaptive problems, while productively and creatively delivering products of the highest possible value."
Consequently, the same source tells us that a ScrumMaster "…is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum. ScrumMasters do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory, practices, rules, and values. The ScrumMaster is a servant-leader for the scrum team. The ScrumMaster helps those outside the scrum team understand which of their interactions with the scrum team are helpful and which aren't."
What Are the Roles and Responsibilities of a ScrumMaster?
Think of the ScrumMaster as the team's coach and cheerleader rolled up into one. ScrumMasters serve three different groups. Those responsibilities are to:
The Product Owners
Make sure that the scrum team understands the scope, goals, and product domain, while also seeing that the product owners know how to maximize product backlog.
The Development Team
Teach the team the disciplines of agile practices, cross-functionality, and self-organization, while helping them to create excellent products. The ScrumMaster also does its best to resolve any obstacles or issues that may hinder the team (e.g. team conflict, miscommunication).
Take the lead in helping the organization adopt Scrum techniques while planning its implementation. This includes assisting all parties concerned to understand Scrum, especially if this is a brand-new concept for the stakeholders and other employees.
ScrumMasters are also responsible for facilitating Scrum events within the organization; this responsibility applies to all groups.
How Do You Become a ScrumMaster?
With all of the responsibilities on a ScrumMaster's shoulders, it wouldn't be unreasonable to think that the road to becoming a ScrumMaster is a long and difficult one. Fortunately, that's not the case; it's actually not that difficult.
However, it indeed takes a specific personality type with a particular set of soft skills to become an effective ScrumMaster. Good ScrumMasters:
Can communicate well
Are outgoing
Are good leaders, not afraid of taking charge and rallying the team
Are self-motivated
Can be diplomatic, especially with non-team people
Enjoy solving problems
You can start your ScrumMaster training by familiarizing yourself with the fundamentals of Scrum. A simple search engine check reveals a multitude of online resources that can give you the basics.
Once you feel that you have a good grasp of what Scrum is all about, you will be ready to take the Certified ScrumMaster Certification training course. The training is a two-day course that prepares you for certification. Incidentally, this course is also an excellent way for professionals to upskill. It never hurts to increase your skill set, as the investment of time and resources will yield far higher returns.
After you pass the course, register for and take the CSM exam. When you pass it, congratulations, you've done it! Learn more about how to become a Certified ScrumMaster.
This infographic sums up the roadmap nicely as well.
What's the Demand for ScrumMasters?
The ScrumMaster Trends Report released by Scrum.org and Age of Product indicates that the role of ScrumMaster is becoming more significant and widespread. LinkedIn calls ScrumMaster one of the most promising jobs of 2019.
The report also points out that certification is a crucial element for a successful ScrumMaster. Most ScrumMasters hired are trained, have certification, and are paid more than their untrained, non-certified counterparts. Considering how some companies will even compensate you for work-related education, there is no reason why you shouldn't take a certification training course.
While there's still a small percentage of organizations out there that are adopting the waterfall method, there are more using the Agile method, which of course factors into Scrum.
What Are the Different Types of ScrumMaster Career Paths Available?
There's no reason for being content as a ScrumMaster indefinitely. As, there are several career paths you can take to raise your professional life to the next level.
Agile coaches facilitate the implementation of Scrum and Agile together. Consider it a specialized, focused variety of ScrumMaster.
Once you've mastered scrum methodology and have logged a few years' worth of experience as a ScrumMaster, consider becoming a teacher. After all, larger organizations and businesses have more than one scrum team, so that they will need more than one ScrumMaster. Mentors teach others how to become ScrumMasters.
You can even move away from Scrum altogether and try for a manager position. After all, a good manager knows how to lead people and has a good understanding of the organization. Who better to do these things than a former ScrumMaster?
There are more possibilities, limited only by your imagination and ambition. Any profession that requires people skills, leadership, and technical understanding of some sort would be ideal for the ScrumMaster who wants to move on.
Speaking of moving, where in the world are these jobs that pay so well? Now that you mention it:
What Countries Pay Best?
Unsurprisingly, not every country pays the same; we need to factor in variables such as the nation's overall state of the economy and demand for ScrumMasters. It's interesting to note, however, that according to this report, women are surpassing men in terms of salary. Although only 29 percent of the survey respondents were women, there were more women than men in the higher salary ranges.
Here is a sample of annual average scrum salaries, focusing on the more popular markets. The figures come courtesy of Glassdoor.com. Note that there can be a variance depending on geographical location, the experience level of the applicant, and company size:
United States: $106,791
Singapore: S$140K (US$ 102,626)
Australia: A$109K (US$ 73,978)
United Kingdom: £50,298 (US$ 64,000)
Canada: CA$84K (US$ 63,264)
New Zealand: NZ$96K (US$ 61,696)
South Africa: R453,796 (US$ 30,631)
China: ¥211,956 (US$ 30,209)
India: ₹1,427K (US$ 19,966)
As Scrum's acceptance continues to grow, we will see more countries added to the list.
What Industries Use ScrumMasters, and Which Pay Better?
Some industries need ScrumMasters more than others. Naturally, the IT industry is the prime Scrum user, but other sectors are coming around as well. Like the salaries above, these details aren't absolute and may vary depending on the economy, overall demand, and other factors. However, it's a reasonably good sampling.
More industries may jump on the Scrum bandwagon as the methodology continues to yield good results.
Financial services (insurance, retirement planning, investment firms)
Product development (light manufacturing, heavy industry)
Construction (contractors)
Disrupters (Airbnb, Uber)
In terms of payment, the financial sector dominates the field, with product owners able to earn $149K a year. The insurance industry offers product owners up to $136K annually, while telecommunications offers $125K a year. The computer industry, where Scrum first came into being, has similarly high salaries, as evidenced by Apple's project manager opportunities coming in at $129K a year.

Mr. Hill: We are setting up a review of the current arrangements for ports police, as proposed in "Modern Ports--A UK Policy", published in November last year. My Department is aiming to review the powers, duties and functions of ports police forces; the advantages or disadvantages of alternative arrangements that have been implemented at those ports that no longer have port police; how the port police forces compare to Home Office police forces in terms of accountability i.e. management, inspection, complaints procedures, disciplinary matters and training; and report on the current situation and make recommendations for future options for the port police. We will be consulting the ports police forces, the ports industry and users and other Government Departments.
Mr. Hill: The ports policy paper noted our intention to look at the existing management structures and practices and financial arrangements for municipal ports to make sure that they are playing a full and accountable part in the local and regional economy. We are keen to ensure that municipal ports have an opportunity to benefit from the same changes as are now being made in the trust port sector following our review of trust ports and publication of national standards of accountability and good practice in "Modernising Trust Ports--A Guide to Good Governance" (which we launched last year).
The study will also seek to benchmark performance of the municipal sector against other UK ports and will examine options and opportunities for the future role and status of municipal ports in England and Wales.
There will be full consultation with the relevant local authorities, the ports sector, and port users. We aim to report the findings of this study and any recommendations by the end of the year.
Mr. Hill: Regulations implementing Council Directive 1999/35/EC on a system of mandatory surveys for the safe operation of regular roll on/roll off and high speed passenger craft operating a service to or from the UK came into force on 16 February.
Prevent a vessel from operating if it does not meet stringent EU safety rules; or else require any safety defects to be remedied.
These new, tougher safety measures will result in greater safety on all roll on/roll off and high speed passenger ferries operating in UK waters, regardless of which flag they might fly.
Mr. Hill: In order to provide the guidance on local transport plan annual reports to local authorities as early as possible, my Department is today arranging for local authorities to receive copies of the guidance by electronic mail. This will be followed shortly with printed copies and the posting of the guidance on my Department's website.
paid under the Home Energy Efficiency Scheme towards the cost of domestic insulation measures for some 4,200 households in my hon. Friend's constituency.
"Driving Wales Forward"--identifying a new core network of nationally important strategic roads and setting out key criteria to be used in assessing options for addressing problems on the road network (July 1998).
In addition, two substantial pieces of primary legislation--the Local Government Acts 1999 and 2000--have implemented the Government's vision of revitalised local government in both Wales and England. The best value provisions in the 1999 Act, and the new political management structures, ethical framework and powers to promote the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of communities in the 2000 Act, have given local authorities the tools they need to be more efficient, transparent and accountable in serving their local communities.
Other developments since 1 July 1999 are matters for the National Assembly for Wales.
Mr. Wilson [holding answer 8 February 2001]: (i) Public Opinion Research: I refer the hon. Member to the answer given to him on 17 December 1998, Official Report, column 721W. In the present financial year, the FCO has spent £43,000 on preliminary public opinion research on consular matters.
1996. It would involve disproportionate costs to establish a breakdown of expenditure. The European Union Command advertised its Europe Day 2000 in Metro at a cost of £8,539.
(iii) Direct mail: Since the answer given to the hon. Member on 17 December 1998, Official Report, column 721W, approximately £200 has been spent on direct mail by the European Union Command.
Mr. Wilson: Since 1 December 1999, £43,724, including VAT has been paid to a consultancy company for the services of the FCO's Minority Ethnic Liaison Adviser.
Mr. Wilson: The UK opposes the death penalty in all circumstances and, together with EU partners, calls upon all states to abolish the death penalty. At the World Bank Development Forum in December 2000, the EU expressed their concern about Sri Lanka's plan to bring back the death penalty. The EU Troika in Colombo are currently seeking a meeting with the Sri Lankan Minister for Justice to make a formal demarche on this matter.
Mr. Wilson: The Government remain fully committed to supporting the peace process in Sri Lanka. We will continue to give our wholehearted support to Norway's efforts to facilitate peace talks between the Sri Lankan Government and the LTTE. We stand ready to play a role, if asked.
We urge the Sri Lankan Government and the LTTE to intensify their efforts towards seeking, with the help of the Norwegian Government, a peaceful negotiated settlement to this tragic conflict which has claimed over 65,000 lives.

Arizona Dranes, Forgotten Mother Of The Gospel Beat
By NPR Music
Tompkins Square
Detail from a print advertisement for Arizona Dranes' Okeh recordings.
In the 1920s, the sound of music in the black church underwent a revolution. Standing at 40th and State Street in Chicago, Roberts Temple Church of God in Christ was a witness to what occurred.
The high-energy gospel beat of the music that can still be heard in this Pentecostal church is the creation, music critics say, of Arizona Dranes, a blind piano player, a woman who introduced secular styles like barrelhouse and ragtime to the church's music.
The Chicago studio where Dranes recorded her music in 1926 no longer exists, but when she played her music at Roberts Temple, she influenced people like 11-year-old Sister Rosetta Tharpe, who sat in the congregation and would go on to become a gospel superstar.
"I mean, it was probably like hearing Jimi Hendrix for the first time," says music writer Michael Corcoran. "There was nothing like it before."
Corcoran has uncovered as much of Dranes' lost history as anyone ever has for the forthcoming CD package, He Is My Story: The Sanctified Soul of Arizona Dranes.
"She really was the first person to take secular styles and put words of praise on top of them to make gospel music," he tells NPR's Cheryl Corley. "It was extremely influential because people like Thomas Dorsey — who is correctly considered the father of gospel music — he figured, 'Well, I can take blues and put that to gospel music and come up with something new.' But he has acknowledged her as one of his influences."
Spirit Matched By Technique
Corcoran says it wouldn't be quite accurate to call Dranes the mother of gospel — her contribution was more specific than that. Dranes, he says, is responsible for giving gospel its rhythmic identity.
/ Tompkins Square
One of few known images of Arizona Dranes (center).
"She was Pentecostal," he says. "She was from the Church of God in Christ. I think they call them 'holy rollers' — they believe in speaking in tongues and really letting it go. Her music totally fit the church: The preachers would preach about spirit possession and then say, 'Here's Arizona Dranes.' And she would show them what they were talking about."
Dranes' life isn't well documented. It is known that she grew up in Texas, that she was a student at The Institute for Deaf, Dumb and Blind Colored Youth in Austin, and that she was classically trained. Corcoran says that with a little research, he discovered that Dranes was playing the works of Mozart and Beethoven by her early adolescence.
"It's really important to know that," Corcoran says. "When I first heard the music of Arizona Dranes, it was so spooky — it sounded like 1930s cartoon music, but the lyrics were about lamb's blood and the Crucifixion. Knowing that she was classically trained made a lot of sense, because she had such command of the piano. You match the spirit with her technique, and that is Arizona Dranes."
A Lasting Legacy, A Forgotten Life
Dranes made her Chicago recordings in the late 1920s, after coming to the attention of an Okeh Records A&R representative who brought her to town to make a handful of test recordings. Corcoran says that by 1930s, however, the Great Depression had dried up demand for the style of raw, energetic performance Dranes specialized in, ending her recording career. She died in 1963; Corcoran says her passing went essentially unnoted.
One of Dranes' Chicago recordings, released by Okeh Records.
"There was nothing at all," he says. "I can see where the general public wouldn't know much about her, because she didn't sell many records and she only played in church for the most part. But it really puzzled me that the Church of God in Christ didn't acknowledge her. ... I think that she was never really part of the church organization, and therefore was sort of forgotten through the years."
Though her name was mostly lost to history, Corcoran says, the lasting impact of her music is undeniable.
"You look at Little Richard and Ray Charles and Fats Domino and people like that — they sit down at the piano and they just lose themselves, but they're in complete control of their instrument," he says. "That all started with Arizona Dranes: There was no one before her who did that on record.
"I mean, Jerry Lee Lewis was Pentecostal, too," Corcoran adds. "If he didn't hear Arizona Dranes' records, he heard people that heard her records. I really think she's such an important figure, and completely obscure, for really no good reason."

Top 5 Most Common Questions Regarding Sports Injuries and How to Prevent Them.
Written by Joshua Alpert, MD on December 20, 2013
Are you ready to get onto the field or court? Unfortunately playing any sports can lead to a number of injuries sustained due to the combination of high speeds and high impact.
As athletes compete either recreationally or in high school, college, and professional sports, Dr. Alpert has provided us some information on the 5 most common questions he gets regarding injuries that occur during sports activities.
1. How can sports injuries be prevented?
A proper stretching routing both during warm-up and cool-down.
Off-season conditioning and strength training
Appropriately fitted gear including helmets (when necessary), shoewear, bracing, pads, and mouthguard.
Hydrating before and after the activity with water and avoiding sugar filled sports drinks.
A medical evaluation by a primary care MD to assess overall health and wellness.
2. How do I know if I have a concussion?
A concussion is any injury to the head that leads to any kind of altered mental status. Many times symptoms may seem minor, such as a slight headache or Nausea. Other times a player has severe symptoms such as dizziness, blurry vision, or loss of balance. Regardless of the severity of symptoms, any player suspected of a concussion, no matter how minor it appears, should necessitate the player being removed from a practice/game so that they can be evaluated by a health care professional before being cleared to return to play.
3. How do I know if I tore my ACL?
Most knee injuries that occur in sports occur either from a direct blow to the knee, or when the knee is planted, foots get caught or stuck, and the knee is twisted.Signs of a significant knee injury include: swelling, the inability to bear weight, a feeling of instability, inability to fully flex or extend the knee, and pain. The anterior cruciate ligament is the main stabilizer of the knee. It is usually torn from a non-contact twisting injury to the knee, an audible pop may be heard, the knee swells, and may feel "unstable" or wobbly.
4. What is the difference between a shoulder "separation" and a shoulder "dislocation"
A shoulder "dislocation" occurs when the ball (humeral head) pops out of the socket (glenoid). This is a significant injury that usually necessitates a trip to the emergency room to have the shoulder put back into place. This is usually then treated in a sling for up to 6 weeks and sometimes needs surgery if the ball continues to come out of the socket. For more info on shoulder dislocations.
A shoulder "separation" occurs at the level of the "AC JOINT" where the collarbone (clavicle) meets the acromion (shoulder blade). This usually happens from a direct blow to the shoulder where the clavicle "separates" from the acromion and the ligaments stretch out. Although painful, this is generally treated with a sling and ice for 1-2 weeks and rarely needs surgery.
5. How can I prevent heat related injuries?
Heat stroke and dehydration are fairly common, especially in the early part if the football or soccer season when the weather is warmer. Aggressive hydration with water is important before, during, and after play. Early signs of dehydration include severe cramping and muscle fatigue. It is important to notify the medical team of these symptoms during play in order to be treated quickly in an appropriate manner.

The Illumicube, presented to the people of Canberra in 1988, is a public sculpture that commemorated 25 years of electricity supply. The colour of the lights originally changed in response to sound. With more people now living in the city centre, the sound feature has been de-activated to reduce the cacophony of car horns, shouting and burn outs that it provoked late at night.
The Illumicube was the inspiration for the creative project in a unit titled Design, Interaction and Environment in the Master of Digital Design that I taught at UC in 2012. The unit was run at the Make, Hack,Void (MHV) community hackerspace in Downer.
Each of the 8 students made their own interactive cube that began with a common behaviour and added their own individual special property, exploring different materials and aesthetics of interaction and physical computing.
The common behaviour was a sonic response to touch based on a capacitive sensor. Additional interactions included responses to temperature and movement to produce changes in shape, vibration, and colour. We also explored materials including paper, wood, metal, fabric, plastic, metal and ferro-fluid.
Timothy Dyers Animal, Azza Al Ghardaqa's Mirror Cube, Coraline Kong's Magic Crate, Paul Krix's Shape Morphing Cube, Daniel Neville's Do almost nothing Box, Alex Gray's Accordian, and Ana Sanchez Laws personal meditation box.
The overall concept was to create a sculptural installation by stacking all of the cubes together, but unfortunately we never got to the final stage of assembling it to find out whether the results would be more than the sum of its flashing, moving and beeping parts.


The Darran Mountains are remotely located in Fiordland National Park and are one of the great wilderness areas of the Southern Hemisphere. It is an area where snow-capped mountains, rivers of ice, deep lakes, unbroken forests and tussock grasslands produce a landscape of exceptional beauty including the internationally renowned Milford Sound.
Based at the historic NZAC Homer Hut, this location offers an amazing array of mountaineering objectives. Even the approaches to these climbs are well rewarded by amazing views of the Darrans Range and beautiful steep vistas of the fiords out to the Tasman Sea.
"It was an absolute privilege to be able to go to the Darran Range - it's an incredibly remote and beautiful area. It was my first trip in 17 years for climbing and I did more than I ever thought possible. I'm still looking at the photos of McPherson and thinking - holy cow, I was up there!!! Andrea has a relaxed and easy going manner, so on the second day when I stopped short of the end of the Gertrude Saddle, I felt very comfortable. He is a lovely person, a great guide and a Michelin star alpine chef. Andrea belayed at any of the tricky sections and spotted me as necessary. He also gave me some great tips for descending the scree slopes (not something I'd encountered previously). Having Andrea take care of all of the details meant that I could truly relax, which was a real treat. I could not have had a better time and I'm looking forward to the next trip."
The approach to the North Ridge of Moir's Mate starts from the Homer Tunnel and traverses the fantastically exposed ridge from Homer Saddle. The rock, typical of the Darrans, is perfect and amazingly grippy, so the climbing is never too difficult. The summit commands fantastic views down onto the Hollyford and Cleddau valleys where minute tourist buses wind down to Milford Sound. Stronger parties can commit to a significantly longer day and continue along to the summit of Mt Moir.
The classic skyline traverse of the massif affords panoramic views of the whole region. This technically easy route requires a range of alpine skills as you travel over the full breadth of Darrans terrain. It starts from Homer Saddle and the first section climbs the exposed 'Talbot's Ladder' with typical Darrans rock and enormous exposure before ascending the snow slopes to the summit of Mt Macpherson. The route then traverses the glacier over to Traverse Pass before an optional side trip along the ridge to the summit of Mt Talbot before descending to Gertrude Saddle. From here you follow the valley track back to Homer Hut and you can grab a quick swim in Black Lake ...if you are game.
Perhaps the most aspired to summit in Fiordland, Mitre Peak stands iconically overlooking the World Heritage Milford Sound and is the most photographed mountain in New Zealand. The classic ascent of the east ridge from sea level is long and has all the ingredients of a Darrans adventure! An approach by boat or helicopter, bush, tussock culminating in the mega-exposed but fantastic rock of the upper ridge. There is the possibility of spending a night out on the ridge on one of the few areas wide enough to pitch a tent where you can watch the sunset from a unique vantage point high above the Sound.
Mt Madeline is the second highest summit in the Darrans and an extremely satisfying mountaineering objective. The remote area is accessed by a short scenic flight from Milford Sound to a base at the historic Turner's Bivi rock. There are many options to warm up or wind down after the ascent with a number of buttresses for rock climbing near the bivi. We access the glacier only a short distance from the bivi and climb steadily to the snow slopes of the west face or the mixed climbing offered by the south west ridge. From the summit you look straight across at the massive Mt Tutoko, the remote Fiordland coast and north to Mt Earnslaw and Mt Aspiring.
Available anytime Jan to April subject to guide availability.
Private Guiding can be tailored to meet your specific requirements. A good level of fitness and comfort with heights is desired. Whether you are brand new or looking to push your limits your guide will be able to take you as far as you want to go.
If you enjoy heights and are of average fitness there are climbs that you will be able to enjoy. We have climbs for all abilities and your guide will only tackle objectives that are within your grasp.
What if the weather is bad for my trip? Do I have to pay?
We can meet at the start of your trip in either Wanaka or Queenstown. If you are on a tight schedule and flying into Queenstown, then it may be more convenient for your guide to meet you in Queenstown. If you have overnighted in Queenstown then your guide will pick you up at your accommodation around 9am. You will need to be organised with equipment, but we can help you with this beforehand. After introductions and a gear check we are off on the drive to Fiordland. It is an exceptionally scenic drive (4 hours) passing through Te Anau and the Eglinton Valley. On arrival at Homer Hut we have time for a quick reconnaisance of the route for the the next day.
Climb one of the stunning routes on offer in this area, perhaps choosing to bivi or camp out to make this most of the remoteness of this wilderness area.
After a leisurely breakfast we pack up and wind our way back to Queenstown or Wanaka. We have time to stop off and sample the many viewpoints and hikes along the Milford Road or stop in at Te Anau for a well deserved beverage.

When I served at the Vatican's Pontifical Council for the Family, a frequent theme that came up in meetings with pro-life leaders from around the world was the special importance of the Feast of the Annunciation for the pro-life movement, and a desire to see that Feastday given even more prominence in the celebrations of the Church.
The significance exists on several levels.
The Annunciation, when the Virgin Mary is told that she has been chosen to be the Mother of the Savior, constitutes the moment when "the Word became Flesh." The eternal Son of God began existing as a human being not at His birth at Bethlehem, but within the womb of Mary.
God was once an unborn child. Every unborn child, therefore, is in some fashion united with God. As the Second Vatican Council asserted, "By his incarnation the Son of God has united himself in some fashion with every human being" (Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World Gaudium et Spes, 22).
In the writings of the Fathers of the Church, we encounter reflections on the theme that Christ redeemed us by assuming all the different aspects of our life on earth, including our childhood, our life of work, our family life, our sufferings, and our death. In an age when, as the Holy Father says, "it is possible to speak in a certain sense of a war of the powerful against the weak" (The Gospel of Life, 12), we should also reflect on the fact that the Son of God shared in our life in the womb.
Would it long be possible for believers, who meditate on the unborn child who was God, to fail to see that unborn children are made in God's image? Would it be likely that those who ponder that our Almighty Protector was a baby in the womb will fail to see that babies in the womb deserve protection? Would it happen that Christians, who acknowledge that their Lord and Brother was an embryo and fetus, will fail to see that every embryo and fetus is a brother and sister in the Lord?
Yet the marvels revealed by the Annunciation do not stop there. There is also the mystery of Mary's freedom, her "Fiat" -- "Let it be done to me according to your word" (Lk. 1:38). This is freedom of choice which serves the truth, as opposed to "pro-choice" which claims to create its own truth. This is choice at the service of life, rather than the perverted choice to take life. This is the moment when Mary gave her body to the One who would bring life to the world by saying "This is My Body," forever undoing the sin of those who justify abortion by saying, "This is my body!"
Yes, let us celebrate the Annunciation with greater solemnity than ever before. Let us join the spirit of those nations which have declared March 25 a day of the unborn child. Let us recommit ourselves to love and serve the weakest among us!

← Virtualization for embedded systems has many implementations..
In response to growing pressure to boost the performance and trim down the size of embedded applications, standards organizations meet regularly to optimize their portfolios in light of the latest available technology. These updated standards take advantage of new silicon architecture combining multiple processors, graphics elements, and complex I/O to deliver the next generation of preengineered, off-the-shelf modules to support many of the high-performance requirements of embedded product development.
These standardized computer platforms allow designers to trade in substantial savings in Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) and scheduling for slightly higher recurring costs. Standards-based designs also shortcut the software development effort by providing access to compatible operating systems, vendor-supplied drivers, and sample firmware.

Q: jQuery: Simple Fade buttons from one class to another? I've been searching everywhere for this, hope some of you experts can help me out, as i'm am finding it difficult, i've been searching how to do this, but only finding actual direct colour, opacity or image swapping fade tutorials..... but no actual how to fade one class to another class on hover...
For example:
Button has .btn class....
Rollover, it becomes:
.btnhover
But I would like it to have a nice gentle fade to the new class, not just swap (As that can easily be done in just css)
Thanks.

A: jQuery UI has a toggleClass method which can be used to animate from class A to class B.
toggleClass( class, [duration] )

Adds the specified class if it is not
  present, and removes the specified
  class if it is present, using an
  optional transition.

http://jqueryui.com/demos/toggleClass/

A: What you're talking about is called transition, meaning that going from one state to another state smoothly and over time, not abruptly and sudden. As an alternative, I suggest using CSS3 Transitions, or jQuery animate function. Please let me know if those alternatives can satisfy your requirements.
Update:
jQuery itself doesn't have this capability. But jQueryUI extends jQuery's animate method such that you can apply transition from one CSS class to another CSS class smoothly.
Here is where you can find it.
Update:
var button = $('#button');
button.hover(function(){
   button.switchClass('ordinary', 'hovered', 1000);
}, function(){
   button.switchClass('hovered', 'ordinary', 1000);
});

A: This can be done with animate() - you need to use jquery API to be able to use this function. Pretty simple - just animate the properties of the class you want to change on hover.
http://api.jquery.com/animate/

A: I think the Jquery UI plugin allows for animation between classes. It might be worth checking that out:
Jquery UI Animate

A: Depending on how complex is the class (if it has images in the background, different font types, etc..) I think a way you can achieve this effect is by  duplicating the element, leaving one hidden and then use the fadeIn and fadeOut effects.
This could be an example:

     Your element

Ramsey, Dave (Lynching of)
A young Black man named Dave Ramsey was lynched in Marianna (Lee County) on January 9, 1881, for allegedly having attempted to rape a white girl. This was the first recorded lynching in Lee County, where the death toll by lynching would eventually reach seventeen documented cases by 1919. At the time Ramsey was killed, the Black population of Lee County was more than double the white population, a disparity that would only increase in the coming years. The first report of this event appeared in the Arkansas Gazette on January 13, 1881, under the headline, "A Raper Roped," with the subtitle, "The Pine Bluff Code Works to Perfection." This report consists of reprinting a letter, dated January 10 and …
Randolph, John (Lynching of)
On July 22, 1875, an African American man named John Randolph was shot by unknown men at Cowell's Landing (Mississippi County). Randolph and another man were accused of the robbery and murder of Frank Williams, a German man who worked on a plantation named Dickenson's Mills, which was owned by A. K. Hancock and located on Frenchman's Bayou forty miles above Memphis, Tennessee. While the Arkansas Gazette published a story datelined Memphis on July 26, a July 31 story in the Osceola Times contained more complete and presumably more accurate information. According to the Times, on Monday, July 19, Williams was paid and then started out for the Shawnee Village landing, located on a plantation of that name owned by …

Rebel Stakes
The Rebel Stakes, a thoroughbred horse race restricted to three-year-old colts and geldings, has been run each year since 1961 at Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort in Hot Springs (Garland County). Over the years, it has developed into an important preparatory race not only for the $1 million Arkansas Derby, but also for the subsequent Triple Crown races. (The Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes make up the Triple Crown.) The Rebel Stakes is traditionally held in mid-March. Stakes races—so called because of the stake, or entry fee, owners must pay—are rated grade one (the highest), grade two, or grade three based on the size of the purse. (The purse is the prize money that is divided among the horses competing …
Rector, Rickey Ray (Execution of)
Rickey (or Ricky) Ray Rector was the third death row inmate to be executed in Arkansas after the reinstatement of capital punishment in the state in 1990. He was executed despite concerns over his ability to understand the difference between life and death or the consequences of his actions. On March 22, 1981, Rector entered Tommy's Old Fashioned Home-style Restaurant in Conway (Faulkner County), where he had previously been denied entrance to a private party. Rector fired several shots, killing Arthur Criswell and wounding two others. Two days later, Rector entered his mother's home while the police were there questioning his mother and sister. Rector shot and killed Robert Martin, a Conway police officer, before running outside and shooting himself …
Red River Campaign
The Red River Campaign involved a multipronged Union attack in southwest Arkansas and northwest Louisiana. The objectives—the capture of Texas to prevent Mexican Emperor Maximilian from threatening the region, the crippling of Confederate resistance west of the Mississippi, and the seizure of cotton land—failed as outnumbered Confederates maximized positions to repel the invasion. Afterwards, Confederate morale improved, bolstering further resistance in the Trans-Mississippi and prolonging the war. Under Union General-in-Chief Henry Halleck's plan, Major General Nathaniel P. Banks would march from west of New Orleans, link with Rear Admiral David Porter's Mississippi Squadron on the Red River and infantry troops from east of the Mississippi River, and coordinate their movement into northwest Louisiana while Brigadier General Frederick Steele pushed south …
Reed's Mountain, Skirmish at
The series of maneuvers and skirmishes that took place on Reed's Mountain on December 4–7, 1862, with the primary skirmish on December 6, relate directly to the aftermath of the Engagement at Cane Hill and serve as a prelude to the Battle of Prairie Grove. After his tactical victory at Cane Hill (Washington County) on November 28, Major General Thomas C. Hindman hoped to rely on Reed's Mountain to slow a persistent Federal pursuit and conceal his planned attack against the separated portions of the Army of the Frontier. Therefore, on December 3, Hindman ordered Brigadier General John S. Marmaduke to prepare a defensive stand, anchored at the approaches to the Cove Creek and Wire roads. Information gathered through reconnaissance …
Remount Camp, Skirmish at
Brigadier General Joseph O. Shelby assumed command of all Confederate forces north of the Arkansas River beginning in late May 1864. Union control of the Arkansas River and the capital at Little Rock (Pulaski County) effectively isolated Shelby from the secessionist state government and most Confederate fighting forces in the southwest corner of the state. Three years of warfare had taken its toll; poverty and devastation were rampant in Arkansas's northern counties, and the area was full of deserters from both armies. Civilians who did not or could not flee their homes teetered on the verge of starvation, as passing Union and Confederate forces pressed the common citizens for supply and forage, while roving guerrilla bands freely plundered whatever was …
Reported Smallpox Lynching of 1894
Early in May 1894, newspapers across the country began to publish sensational articles, based on a report to Little Rock (Pulaski County) from Ouachita County, on the lynching of a man with smallpox near Miles Switch. As is often the case with false lynching reports, the news continued to circulate even after the Arkansas Gazette published a clarification on May 7. Smallpox was common in the United States during the spring of 1894, with cases appearing in most states. Arkansas was one of the states affected; even though a vaccine had been developed in the late eighteenth century, the state did not require vaccination until 1897. According to an article published by the Gazette on May 2, 1894, twenty-nine smallpox …
Reynolds, Dan (Lynching of)
In late December 1888, Dan Reynolds, an African American, was beaten and left for dead near Coffee Creek (Phillips County) by nine other African-American men who apparently disapproved of his relationship with a local black woman. The Arkansas Gazette referred to this incident as "one of the most atrocious crimes ever committed in this or any other country." Coffee Creek is located in Big Creek Township, and Dan Reynolds had been living there for almost twenty years. He is listed in the 1870 census as a farm laborer, living with his wife, Vester (or Vesta) who was thirty-nine. By 1880, they had a ten-year-old daughter named Eliza. According to a report published in the Arkansas Gazette on January 15, 1889, …

Rhodes, Richard (Hanging of)
Few people survive a hanging, but Dr. Richard Rhodes—a plantation owner in Dallas County, living just south of present-day Sheridan (Grant County)—may have survived two. Richard Clinton Rhodes was born in North Carolina in 1801 to a prominent family. He received medical training in Europe and then opened a practice in Robeson County, North Carolina. There, he invested in land and quickly became a rich plantation owner with nearly 200 slaves. Rhodes married Susan Davis Russell when she was sixteen and he was forty-six. The Rhodes family's oral history says that while practicing medicine in North Carolina, Rhodes delivered Susan as a newborn. The Russell family could not afford to pay Rhodes's medical fee, so the baby girl was offered …
Established in 1936, the World's Champion Duck Calling Contest has annually attracted the finest duck callers and duck hunting enthusiasts in North America to the city of Stuttgart (Arkansas County). The contest is held on the weekend following Thanksgiving Day, just as the college football season is beginning to wind down and the season's bowl games are on the horizon. In 1957, contest organizers sought to capitalize on the popularity of college football in Arkansas by adding a college football game, known as the Rice Bowl, to the calendar of events. The Rice Bowl's goal was to showcase the finest small college football teams in the state of Arkansas. In 1957, Rice Bowl committee chairman Shannon Flowers signed an agreement …

Rice, William (Lynching of)
On November 7, 1891, an African American named William Rice was murdered in Conway County for unknown reasons. News of the event appeared in the Indianapolis Journal on November 9. Citing a report received from Little Rock (Pulaski County) on November 8, the Journal stated that Rice's body was found hanging from a tree near Plumerville (Conway County) on the morning of November 7. Appearances indicated that Rice had been killed first, and then his body was suspended from the tree. The November 18 edition of the Pilot of Morrilton (Conway County) reported that Rice's body had been found suspended on a bridle rein on the Springfield and Dover Road near Solgohachia (Conway County) "last Thursday morning." This would have …

Richland Creek, Skirmish at (August 16, 1864)
A running battle in northwestern Arkansas, this skirmish was typical of Federal efforts to keep guerrillas from establishing a foothold in the area. On August 15, 1864, Colonel Marcus LaRue Harrison of the First Arkansas Cavalry (US) ordered Lieutenant Colonel Albert Bishop to lead an expedition against a band of bushwhackers operating near Fayetteville (Washington County) under the command of Tuck Smith. Departing at 1:00 a.m. the next morning, the Federals moved eastward and found signs of enemy activity about thirteen miles outside Fayetteville. Around 7:00 a.m., the unit approached a home on Richland Creek. Between ten and fifteen horses were tied up there. The guerrilla riders were inside eating breakfast, and the Union troops surprised the entire group, causing …
Richland Creek, Skirmishes at (April 13–14, 1864)
These separate Civil War skirmishes over two days in northern Arkansas were part of a Federal effort to keep Confederate forces from organizing in the area. By attacking guerrilla bands, Union troops were able to disrupt enemy efforts severely. Captain Samuel Turner of the Sixth Missouri State Militia (US) led a patrol along Richland Creek in April 1864. Finding evidence of enemy activity in the area, he located a guerrilla camp under the command of a Captain Watkins. Attacking the camp, which numbered about sixty-three people, the Federals completely surprised the enemy, killing five, including Watkins. Several others were wounded, and one Confederate was captured. The next day, several guerrilla bands numbering more than 100 joined forces. These groups were …
Richland Creek, Skirmishes at (May 3 and 5, 1864)
In March 1864, six companies and the headquarters of the Federal Second Arkansas Cavalry commanded by Colonel John E. Phelps were transferred from Cassville, Missouri, to Yellville (Marion County) to suppress Confederate guerrillas who were raiding southern Missouri. Other companies of the regiment were left at Berryville (Carroll County) in Arkansas, and Cassville and Springfield in Missouri. In addition to protecting Missouri, the Federals hoped that troops stationed in the northern tier of Arkansas counties would encourage Arkansas Unionists in the area to organize home-guard companies for protection. Immediately after being assigned to Yellville, however, headquarters were moved to Rolling Prairie (Boone County) in order to provide better forage for the horses. The camp was moved from time to time to …
Richland, Skirmish at
Providing enough food to the men assigned to them was difficult for the numerous Federal outposts spread across the Arkansas countryside late in the war. Gathering supplies could be dangerous work, as Union troops were vulnerable to enemy action while outside their heavily fortified outposts. This skirmish took place when Federal troops moved from Pine Bluff (Jefferson County) as an escort to a beef contractor. On December 24, 1864, Lieutenant Thomas Stevenson received orders to escort a beef contractor to the post commissary. Departing at 5:00 a.m., the escort consisted of nineteen men of the Fifth Kansas Cavalry and twenty men from the Thirteenth Illinois Cavalry. Leaving Pine Bluff, the Union troops moved toward Richland. Finding a bayou too deep …
Ricks, G. W. and Moses (Lynching of)
In June 1898, prosperous African-American farmer G. W. Ricks and his son, Rev. Moses Ricks, were lynched in southern Monroe County for the alleged assault of a white farmer's wife. According to historian Terence Finegan, whose A Deed so Accursed is a study of lynching in South Carolina and Mississippi, prosperous African Americans were occasionally lynched because their success threatened the notion of white superiority. Census information both illuminates and confuses the story. In 1870, there was a black farmer named Jim Ricks living in Monroe County's Duncan Township. He was twenty-seven years old, and living with him were his wife, Miriam, and several other family members, all of them too old to be the Rickses' children. Ricks was a …

Riverfest Arts and Music Festival
Riverfest Arts and Music Festival was Arkansas's premier summer event, offering three days of music on the banks of the Arkansas River in downtown Little Rock (Pulaski County) and North Little Rock (Pulaski County). Operated by Riverfest Inc., a nonprofit organization overseen by a board of directors, Riverfest attracted more than 250,000 people in 2013, creating an economic impact of more than $30 million in the local community. Founded by the Junior League of Little Rock as the Summer Arts Festival in July 1978, the first Riverfest presented the American Wind Symphony and other activities at Murray Park. Following the event's initial success, the date of the Summer Arts Festival was moved the next year to its well-known Memorial Day weekend …

Frank Robertson Lynching Article
Robertson, Frank (Lynching of)
There is much confusion about the lynching of alleged arsonist Frank Robertson, which occurred in late March 1903. Newspapers from the time give a variety of dates for the event, ranging from March 26 to March 28. Many of the reports were datelined Lewisville (Lafayette County), although other newspapers called it New Louisville or New Lewisville; this would be the present-day Lafayette County seat of Lewisville, which was referred to as "New Lewisville" after the town moved closer to the railroad line in the late nineteenth century. Adding to the confusion, when the U.S. Congress issued an apology in 2005 for its historical inaction on lynching, its report said that Robertson's lynching occurred on March 27 just across the Louisiana–Arkansas …
Robinson, Willis (Lynching of)
On December 18, 1918, an African-American man named Willis Robinson was hanged by a mob in Newport (Jackson County) for allegedly murdering police officer Charles Williams and wounding Chief of Police Gus C. Martin. Reports indicate that Robinson was a resident of Little Rock (Pulaski County), and the 1910 census listed nineteen-year-old Willis W. Robinson as living in Owen Township with his parents, Charley and Martha Robinson. According to newspaper reports, by December 1918, Robinson, who was described by the Arkansas Democrat as "a very large black negro, weighing about 240 pounds," was living with his wife at 1003 Jones Street in Little Rock. Robinson was reportedly well known to local authorities. In defiance of a 1917 Arkansas statute forbidding …

Rodeo of the Ozarks
The Rodeo of the Ozarks in Springdale (Washington and Benton counties) was, in 2008, ranked in the top five of large outdoor rodeos in the United States. It is estimated to have a $6 to $7 million impact on northwest Arkansas. The Rodeo of the Ozarks was founded in 1945. That year, a pair of construction workers from Oklahoma who also worked as rodeo promoters, Paul Bond and Bill Kelley, were working in Springdale and raised the idea of starting an event that summer. Eventually, this idea was passed along to Thurman "Shorty" Parsons and Dempsey Letsch, co-owners of a feed store. Under their leadership, the Rodeo of the Ozarks became a reality in 1945, with the dates July 1, 3, …
Rodger's Crossing, Skirmish at
aka: Skirmish at White River (September 14, 1864)
aka: Skirmish at Huntsville
On September 12, 1864, Colonel Marcus LaRue Harrison of the First Arkansas Cavalry (US), stationed in Fayetteville (Washington County), heard rumors that a Confederate group under Captain James Cooper intended to attack Union general John B. Sanborn's train. Harrison ordered that Captain John I. Worthington escort the train to Little Sugar Creek and then move up the White River in the direction of Richland Creek and Huntsville (Madison County). Capt. Worthington attacked Capt. Cooper's approximately eighty Confederate troops close to Jennings' Ferry on the White River. The skirmishes that ensued toward Richland Creek and Huntsville saw nine Confederate deaths, with five suffered at the Skirmish at Rodger's Crossing. On the same day as Worthington's attack, a Confederate lieutenant called Rogers …

Rolling Prairie, Skirmish at
In early 1864, the northern tier of Arkansas counties of Carroll, Searcy, Newton, and Izard had been decimated by the war. This area had become a haven for jayhawkers and bushwhackers from both armies. Union general John B. Sanborn wrote to General W. S. Rosecrans in early February 1864 that 1,200 to 2,000 Confederate soldiers and bushwhackers had gathered in the aforementioned counties and were contemplating a raid into Missouri, with a view of capturing Federal trains and supplies. Sanborn then ordered 200 men of the First Arkansas Cavalry, 200 men of the Second Arkansas Cavalry, and 200 men of the Eighth Missouri State Militia Cavalry into Newton County, then to march so that they would arrive at Rolling Prairie …
Rolling Stones, Arrest of the
The July 5, 1975, lunch stop and subsequent arrest of Rolling Stones guitarists Ron Wood and Keith Richards in Fordyce (Dallas County) is fabled in the town, and the incident became a footnote in the police record of the English rock and roll band. The quintet had cultivated an outlaw image since its early 1960s inception. According to Arkansas native Bill Carter, the Rolling Stones' attorney from 1973 to 1990, everywhere the Stones went in 1975, it was a challenge for authorities. Riot squads and narcotics units were common during the group's twenty-eight-city, $13 million-grossing tour. On July 4, the Stones played Memphis, Tennessee. Richards and new member Wood decided to sightsee and drive with two others to their July …

Roseville, Skirmishes at
In late March 1864, Companies D and E of the Second Kansas Cavalry, led by Captain John Gardner of Company E, were dispatched from their post at Jenny Lind (Sebastian County) to protect Union supplies and a cache of cotton at Roseville (Logan County). Roseville, which was at that time in Franklin County, was an important port on the Arkansas River, forty-five miles southeast of Fort Smith (Sebastian County). The companies either joined or were joined by Company D of the Sixth Kansas Cavalry, making a force of about 200 men. At about the same time, Confederate brigadier general Samuel Bell Maxey ordered Colonel Nicholas Battle to take a detachment of 400 to 500 men of his Thirtieth Texas Cavalry …
Ross' Landing, Skirmish at
Early in 1864, Chicot County witnessed an event that characterized the increasingly brutal nature of warfare in the Trans-Mississippi Department during the last full year of the Civil War. On February 14, 1864, twenty-two self-described "half bushwhackers" from Captain W. N. "Tuck" Thorp's Company E of the Ninth Missouri Cavalry (Elliott's Scouts, serving as the advance of Brigadier General Joseph O. Shelby's brigade and sometimes called the First Missouri Cavalry Battalion) surprised and attacked a detachment of the First Mississippi Infantry (African Descent) under First Lieutenant Thaddeus K. Cock on the Johnson family's Tecumseh plantation near Grand Lake. While patrolling near Lake Village (Chicot County), Capt. Thorp's men learned from an unidentified citizen that a detachment of black Union soldiers from …
Rowland and Dickerson (Lynching of)
On October 6, 1880, two white men were lynched just outside of Jacksonport (Jackson County) for having allegedly murdered a man named John Nieman a few days prior. The names of the lynching victims vary depending upon the newspaper. The Arkansas Gazette report refers to them only as Rowland and Dickerson, while the Batesville Guard gives their full names as Gill Roland and John Dickinson, and their ages as about nineteen and eighteen, respectively. According to the Guard, the men were believed to have come from Dent County, Missouri. The Guard, describing the pair as "heartless wretches" and "two demons," insists that the pair committed their murder "without the slightest provocation or warning." On the night of October 2, the …

Ruffin, Isaac (Lynching of)
On November 30, 1874, an African American man named Isaac Ruffin was lynched near Marion (Crittenden County) for allegedly assaulting and murdering fourteen-year-old Melissa Adams and raping her thirteen-year-old sister Margaret (Maggie); both sisters were African American. Public records reveal nothing about Ruffin, but the 1870 census lists Melissa and Margaret living in Jasper Township with their parents, Jubilee and Cynthia. On December 3, 1874, the New Orleans Bulletin published one of the earliest accounts of the crime. On November 28, Ruffin allegedly met Melissa in the woods near Marion. He assaulted her and then tried to kill her with a knife. She fought back, and in the struggle, Ruffin lost the knife. Unable to find it in the dark, …


The Fluid Mechanics Laboratory was established in June 2016 with the core objective of imparting hands-on pragmatic knowledge in the field of water technology and allied research with respect to the theoretical courses taught to the graduate, post-graduate and PhD students of civil engineering. It houses state of the art advanced instrumentation and latest assembly of equipments supplied by Gunt, Hamburg, Germany and other manufacturers. The laboratory is located in the departmental workshop building of the institute with a floor area covering 600 sq.m.
Fluids (generally liquids) are transported from one location to another using natural or constructed conveyance structures. The cross section of these structures may be open or closed at the top. The structures with closed tops are referred to as closed conduits and those with the top open are called open channels. For example, tunnels and pipes are closed conduits whereas rivers, streams, estuaries etc. are open channels. The understanding of motion and behaviour of fluids under varied conditions and boundaries, demands a lucid practical knowledge of the subject apart from the class room courses comprising of mathematical expressions and formulae. The validation of these basic principles of the subject is conducted in the laboratory. The laboratory recognizes evolution in the application of fluid mechanics and hydraulic engineering, as well as the necessity to reinforce and underpin the student's understanding of its fundamental precepts and actual field applications.
