300 Series Landcruiser Power Upgrades
The 300 Series Landcruiser will be landing in Australia soon. Find out what power upgrades may become available below, or contact us for available power upgrades on older models.
Just Autos Diesel Mechanics
Prepare for Toyota's New LandCruiser
When Toyota recently announced that they will be releasing a 300 Series LandCruiser, the automotive world was taken aback. After all, it has been close to 20 years since the 200 series LandCruiser had its last major upgrade in 1996.
The 300 is not just an update of the body style; it's everything you could ever want from a LandCruiser, and more. The 300 isn't just bigger than the 200 Series; it's better equipped for every scenario you could ever throw at it. Some of its new features include:
A new 300hp V8 turbo diesel engine (although still 4WD-only)
The first ever dual cab ute variant
A larger and more powerful chassis (the 300 has a 300mm longer wheelbase than the 200)
Towing in excess of 7 tonnes (up from 5.2 tonnes on the 200)
Next-level technology, including Apple CarPlay and Wi-Fi connectivity
And that's just for starters! Toyota has ensured that the 300 is greater than its predecessor in every possible way, and fans are very excited about what the 300 has to offer.
Just Autos are your local Toyota diesel tuning experts. We've worked on a wide range of Toyota UTEs, including the 79 Series, 100 Series and 200 Series Landcruiser models. Our team eagerly awaits the 300 Series, and we expect big things from Toyota's new version of their fans' flagship favourite.

Toyota's New Landcruiser Model
Engine Specs for the 300 Series Landcruiser
Unlike the 200 Series, the 300 Series Landcruiser will not be available in the venerable 4.5-litre twin turbo diesel V8. Instead, the new Landcruiser will run on a 3.3-litre twin-turbo diesel V6, with higher power and torque figures compared to the V8 of its predecessor: the F33-FTV 3.3-litre turbo diesel V6 is said to provide 227kW and 687Nm – a healthy power increase over the 200 Series' 200kW/650Nm.
Joining the diesel engine, a 3.5-litre twin-turbo petrol V6 could also be added to the line-up. Toyota intends to electrify their entire range of vehicles by 2025, so a hybrid option will also likely become available in Australia at a later point. And although the timing and release dates aren't yet clear, many speculate that both the diesel and petrol variants will have battery assistance.
Power Upgrades | Diesel Tuning
Like the 70, 100 and 200 Series before it, the 300 Series will likely be under-tuned straight from the factory – allowing for a lot of power upgrades to be implemented. This includes performance enhancement opportunities through ECU remapping, dyno tuning and performance part upgrades.
When it comes to power upgrades for Landcruisers, Just Autos are the experts. Apart from our performance package upgrades, we offer a range of other upgrades and replacements that can improve your vehicle's performance – no matter the terrain.
We expect to be able to greatly enhance the performance of the Toyota 300 Series Landcruiser, based off our experience with the 200, 100 and 79 models. Aspiring owners of the 300 Series Landcruiser can expect power upgrades for the following:
Airboxes and filters
Intercoolers and fans
Turbos and intakes
Transmission lockup kits
Performance Upgrades for the 300 Series Landcruiser
ECU Remapping and Dyno Tuning
In our experience, all the previous Landcruiser models we have worked on have seen phenomenal results after ECU remapping. Custom tuning your ECU can not only greatly enhance your driving experience, but also improve your vehicle's performance and fuel economy.
Dyno tuning may also greatly enhance the power capabilities of the 300 Series Landcruiser. Dyno tuning uses a dynamometer, or dyno, which is used to measure the power, torque, and rotational speed of your engine. The dyno simulates different road conditions in a controlled environment which gives the operator the ability to monitor a range of different variables: from air/fuel ratios to inlet air temperatures.
Diesel engines are built to withstand higher levels of stress and make the ideal candidate for power upgrades at little expense. Carefully selected changes to later-model diesel engines can reap remarkable rewards. At Just Autos, we will have a power upgrade solution that will suit you and your vehicle.

Have you ever realized how much stuff do you get done at the end of the day? If you haven't really think about it, you'll be surprised.
As soon as you can, make a checklist of the stuff you want to do, and see how much time it takes.
You'll realize that you don't need to expend so much time with some of your work, but at the end your time is wasted.
It's okay to say your door is always opened, and feel free to come whenever your want, but each interruption is delaying your work.
You need to be productive and focus.
The reality is that almost every interruption could wait.
If you work in your home on in a private space is really easy to concentrate, but if you work in an office, concentrate on something can be hard.
So, what choices do we have? It's simple, try to avoid interruptions as much as you can, because they are the enemy of productivity.
• Use headphones, every time. It doesn't matter if you're not listening music. Wear them.
• Work with full screen. In this way you won't see any new instant message.
• Every time someone ask you to do something say: If I don't go/do/whatever, will somebody die? People tend to lie, so be strict.
• Work offline! You don't need internet connection to work 100% of the time. Disable your connection and work offline. Yes, you can.
Find time for YOU and get your stuff done. Once you're able to do this, it'll be easier to focus on the important work.

Private international law and substantive liability issues in tort litigation against multinational companies in the English courts:recent UK Supreme Court decisions and post-Brexit implications
Ahmed, Mukarrum (2022) Private international law and substantive liability issues in tort litigation against multinational companies in the English courts:recent UK Supreme Court decisions and post-Brexit implications. Journal of Private International Law, 18 (1). pp. 56-82. ISSN 1744-1048
This article examines the private international law and substantive liability issues in tort claims against UK based parent companies for the actions of their foreign subsidiaries. Arguments drawn from private international law's largely untapped global governance function inform the analysis and the methodological pluralism manifested in the jurisdictional and choice of law solutions proposed. The direct imposition of duty of care on parent companies for torts committed by foreign subsidiaries is examined as an exception to the bedrock company law principles of separate legal personality and limited liability. In this regard, the UK Supreme Court's recent landmark decisions in Vedanta v Lungowe and Okpabi v Shell have granted jurisdiction and allowed such claims to proceed on the merits in the English courts. This article assesses these decisions and their significance for transnational corporate accountability. The post-Brexit private international law regime and its implications for the viability of tort claims against parent companies are examined.

Written by Asher Kravitz and performed by Miha Rodman, it is a great show with sharp acting, tight writing and a million moments to applaud. It's about a dog named Cyrus, and his owner, Josh. At the beginning, Josh arrives at the gates of heaven and speaks to God. He and God argue, but we don't know what about. Ultimately, we learn that the argument was about Cyrus joining Josh in heaven. God forbid the dog to enter. But the real question of the production is "Why would God let the Holocaust happen?" – asked many times and in many ways. Josh, spiritually broken and uninterested in excuses, is livid and demands answers from God. Finally Josh promises not to bring up the questions to which he feels owed answers. He only asks that his dog be admitted. God, unwilling to answer Josh's questions, accepts the bargain and lets Cyrus enter.
I am a person who thinks of history as a series of causes and effects. I don't seek spiritual answers to the question, "Why?" But this production scraped apart and re-skinned my brain. In this show, God isn't sure. God is ashamed. God is like a child hiding his hand. This show transformed my thoughts and feelings. It was a treat to be affected like this by a work of art.
This play takes place during World War II. When Jews are forbidden to own dogs, Cyrus changes hands, moving from owner to owner. Mr. Rodman played a convincing dog. He howled, scratched his flea-bitten hide, and wagged his tail. He ran across the floor with his fingernails scraping. He flipped over and laid on his back happily when he heard his name called.
Mr. Rodman wore a big, brown furry coat and a furry hat with ear flaps. He pulled the coat closed when he hid in trees. He lifted his hat to simulate being pulled by his ears. When Mr. Rodman acted as a Nazi soldier, he used the waist tie on the coat as a gun simulator, aiming it at a target. Mr. Rodman's characters include ruthless Nazis, gay men, boys growing up too quickly, pleading prisoners, and, of course, the dog, expressing unconditional love.
It was amazing to see a dog happy in the midst of atrocities. The plot contains a dog fight, a gun fight, people being murdered or sent away to be murdered, children separated from parents and dogs separated from owners. "The Jewish Dog" is a marvel of empathy. See it if you like war stories, animal stories, stories of escape, or whatever your preferences are.
Cyrus is eventually owned by a Nazi officer who trains him to be a search dog. When he is brought to the ruins of a city, he proudly sniffs a rag and finds the origin of the scent. Expecting his Nazi commander to be happy, Cyrus is confused when the commander screams at the Jewish people he discovers. The dog cannot comprehend this. There are many interesting scenes in which the dog tries to understand what is going on in people's heads. Cyrus often asks, "How are dogs and people different? Whom am I more alike?" In this show, these questions are part of a struggle to make sense of history's injustices.


It was one of those clear, crisp mornings as the Sun came up over the mountains here at Whiting Campground in Maple Canyon. Jagger and I had a quick breakfast and then we stepped down, outside our Coach for one last walk about the campground.
Our early morning ramble would include a stop at the trailhead at the end of the campground road. There I would explore the feasibility of turning our Coach around. The narrow trailhead parking area already had several cars and a truck with a white horse trailer attached. Turning around here would be tight.
It was 9:30 AM by the time we slowly moseyed out of our campsite moving towards the trailhead. I first pulled the Coach into the parking area in between two cars. Then I slowly backed up the Coach between vehicles on the opposite side of the parking area. Finally getting her turned around after a four point turn. Then off we went back into the forest of cottonwood trees along the stream winding through the campground.
Today we are high tailing it South 200 miles down Interstate 15 to Red Canyon Campground, near the entrance to Bryce Canyon National Park. I don't usually drive the Interstate, nor do I enjoy it, but I didn't make reservations at Red Rock Campground and we need to arrive early to get a spot in this popular area.
At 3 pm we pulled into the entrance. It's already way too late. Even though school is back in, there are a lot of visitors here. It appears to be full as we lead our Coach around Loop A. No camps are available.
The Coach hitched to our Workhorse on such a narrow campground road gave me an anxious feeling, as other campers arrive looking for a camp too. It felt similar to being at a roundup with a hundred head and only having a corral for a dozen.
We moved slowly over the narrow one lane road to Loop B and drove most of the way around the loop. "Jagger, I think we are out of luck." He looked back at me with hopeful eyes.
Turning back out on the main road, towards the exit, I spotted a place. Not Ideal, but we fit! "Someone was watching out for us," I think to myself, as we squeezed into site #18. It's not a very big campsite. At first I didn't think we would fit. Most of the campsites here are pretty tight, especially for a 32′ fifth wheel such as our Coach with it's tow vehicle.
I'm guessing that during our three day stay here we'll have about six hours of direct sun on just a portion of our site during the day. Our camp is next to a steep hill with many tall pine trees which shade our site. It looks like we'll be using the generator every afternoon and evening again.
The last few weeks our batteries have really taken a beating. Just using the generator is not deep charging them, which I've read isn't good for batteries. I need to do a little more research when I have Internet again and find out what the solution is for my problem. In the past three weeks it seems like all of the places we've stayed have weak or no cell signal and trees that hinder our solar charging capability.
After partially setting up I figured it was time for a break. I deserved it right?! After all of that commotion trying to find a hitching post for us, I at least deserve a little winding down time.
From my understanding, after getting the lowdown from our hosts, I claimed one of the last camps. I happened to run into them at the pay station while I paid for my stay.
While eating dinner I noticed Jagger napping, most likely out of boredom. Once I finished, I got his full attention, "It's that time, Jagger!" jumping for joy while running to his place to get suited up. We then went on a short walk around the campground. Just as we came around the corner returning to our camp, we met a couple that happened to be walking by on their evening stroll.
We visited for awhile and the man played with Jagger. Of course, he was excited as ever. I can't really blame him. He is full of energy after sitting in the truck for over five hours on our drive here.
Just before they moved on, we formally introduced ourselves, then Pat and Patti invited me to come sit by their campfire for a spell tonight. I gladly accepted and headed back to prepare the Coach for my absence, leaving Jagger behind.
I grabbed my chair, walking a short distance before arriving at their camp, nestled in the tall pine trees. Upon arrival, they were building the bonfire. Perfect timing.
Just then another couple arrived and introduced themselves. Pia and Valo (hopefully I spelled their names correctly) are from East Germany. They're visiting our country for a camping vacation. Pia spoke good English and translated for Valo. He seemed to understand most of the conversation this evening, but was quiet.
During our conversation I learn that Pia is a Child Psychologist and Valo is an EMT. Our host Patti is a Dentist and Pat her husband has just retired from a Financial gig. They call Wisconsin their home and have traveled a little here in the USA and also in Italy and Germany.
As the night continued, the fire died down and we all grew tired. We eventually said our goodnights and goodbyes. I rose, realizing just then I didn't bring my flashlight. "Darn!" I can't believe I did that, it's pitch black. Practically feeling my way back to camp, I was wondering if I could find my way without tripping over a log or, most importantly, a bear. We're talking, did I say pitch black, no Moon!
Well it took awhile, was a little stressful, but I made it safely back to the Coach giving Jagger a big hug. Then after getting ready for bed I crawled in. Before going to sleep I reminisced about the day and the evening. It was a good time of sharing stories and learning about people from very different backgrounds. It was a pleasant surprise for my first night here at Red Canyon.


Did you make any New Year's Resolutions for 2018? How are they going? It's not too late to consider one more resolution for the New Year.

Alumni group attempts to delay name change of St. Paul school
The St. Paul Public Schools Board will consider possibly changing the name of Linwood-Monroe Arts Plus in a meeting Tuesday evening, after a community group raised concerns with the legacy of the school's namesake, President James Monroe.
The fifth U.S. President, Monroe, as with other earlier leaders in the county, was known for owning slaves.
"We agree with the Monroe school and the parents who are for this that it is a problem," said community organizer Dave Bredemus. "I suspect James Monroe was very little talked about up until now, well it should be, it should be talked about a lot."
Bredemus is part of a Monroe alumni group trying to get the school board to delay action on the name change.
One option the alumni group discussed was possibly keeping the 'Monroe' name but naming it after a different 'Monroe.'
"It's been part of our history out here in West 7th street," said Al Hanzel, Class of 1960. "I didn't even know James Monroe was why the school was named."
KSTP/Eric Chaloux
Al Hanzel, Monroe Class of 1960.
The PTA , school leaders and some in the community have been discussing the issue over the last year to come up with a new name to reflect the school arts focus and diversity.
"I think the name change is necessary, there are a lot of children of color here," said parent Kianna Lilly. "I don't think [Monroe] reflects where we are today-- the neighborhood is different, times are changing."
The School Name Change Committee held its first meeting in March, according to a post on the school web site.

MPRB votes to change name of Lake Calhoun Park to Bde Maka Ska Park
The St. Paul School District said the name before the board is Global Arts Plus. The school principal making the presentation to the board was unavailable for comment.
"This could be an opportunity for the community to come together on different sides of the issue, and come up with a solution that's a win-win for everyone," said Hanzal.
The Monroe alumni group plans to take their concerns directly to the school board on Tuesday, including their 700-signature petition, asking for a delay in the naming process so more voices can be heard.

Do you remember your first deep emotional connection with art?
Can you recall the vulnerable and noble jealousy you felt?
"Connections this profound are supposed to be exclusive," you privately raged.
Vulnerability was palpable in that moment. There was an absolutely honest performance… a character played so generously and written with such virtue and precocity that your sensibilities could not keep up. You were emotionally submitted. You blissfully reached your absolute emotional capacity and surrendered. Now, the character's secret struggle became yours to allay.
Your chivalry… your impulse to nurture was so full that when the performance ended you literally ached to lavish the full measure upon a character that had vanished.
What contribution could this possibly make? If you know… then you are a collector of sunbeams.
If you're not sure… if you've forgotten, listen and watch. An enormous contribution has been made here in your interest.

I still can't believe we are already into June...and its only ONE month until the 4th of July. I know you're suppose to already be swimsuit ready by now...but I am far from it! #helloonepiece I have been trying to make more and more things from home lately... just to know what all is going into what I'm eating. I figure even if its not exactly kale salad I still at least have some control over the ingredients this way. So hopefully most of you have had the awesomeness that is Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. I mean there are no words to describe...just follow the cult and go try it (obviously there is a cult following for a reason)! And while Jeni's is probably one of the best ice creams you can buy in terms of quality of ingredients.. at about $12 for a pint (which I could easily eat in one sitting if you dared me) it isn't the cheapest to keep stocked in your freezer for the upcoming HOT days!
So I was on a mission...homemade lemon frozen yogurt (b/c that is my fav Jeni's flavor this time of year)....off to Pinterest and I found a recipe that is worth sharing. Best part is there are two methods to make it just incase you do not own an ice cream maker. I pulled out this classic ice cream churn...I use it every summer at least a few times. It reminds me of my grandparents and just what classic American summers should be about!
I ended up using about 6 full size lemons!..I also will probably use liquid stevia next time to help with the sugar count!
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk together the sweetener and lemon juice, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat immediately to low and simmer just until the sweetener is completely dissolved into a syrup with the lemon. Allow the syrup to cool completely in a small bowl placed over a larger bowl filled with ice and some water (called an "ice bath"). Be sure to stir while cooling. After the syrup has cooled, chill it in the fridge.
Method 1: Combine the lemon zest and syrup with the yogurt, stirring until completely combined. Churn in a frozen yogurt maker for 20- 25 minutes or until the yogurt has a soft serve consistency.
Yogurt can be eaten as is, or for a harder texture, place it in a sealable container. Apply wax paper or plastic wrap so that it is covering the surface of the frozen yogurt, then add the lid. This will prevent ice crystals on the surface of your yogurt.
Method 2: To make frozen yogurt without an ice cream or frozen yogurt maker, simply pour the mixture in a shallow container with a lid. Remove from the freezer every hour, and stir and scrape the yogurt with a fork. Repeat 2 more times. After 3 hours or so, your frozen yogurt should be ready to eat.
Note: Method 1 says to use frozen yogurt maker for 20-25 min. I let the churn go for about 3 hours until I liked the consistency. Also if you do freeze in an airtight container it will still be an edible consistency for a few hours...but after that you will need to defrost a little before serving as it becomes hard as a rock!
Yum!!! You then have some super tart homemade frozen yogurt! (I topped with fresh blueberries!) This would also be fun to play around with other fruits.
warning: if you're not into sour/ tart things...this isn't for you!

Elahé Omidyar Mir-Djalali, a renowned linguist, founded Roshan Cultural Heritage Institute in 2000.
A donation of $1 million from Roshan Cultural Heritage Institute will establish the Elahé Omidyar Mir-Djalali Postdoctoral Fellowship in Iranian Linguistics in the UCLA Department of Linguistics, one of the nation's top-ranked linguistics departments.
Named for the renowned linguist Elahé Omidyar Mir-Djalali, the fellowship will promote research on the linguistic heritage of Iran, focused on Persian and Iranian languages. Mir-Djalali is an expert in language education, cross-cultural communication and Persian studies. She was a faculty member at Georgetown University and UC Berkeley and holds a doctoral degree in linguistics with honors from the Sorbonne in Paris.
Roshan Cultural Heritage Institute, which was founded by Mir-Djalali in 2000, supports cultural and educational activities and nurtures new educators who can preserve the transmission and instruction of Persian language and culture. The institute has awarded several million dollars in grants to establish and strengthen Persian academic programs at prestigious universities in the U.S. and around the world, including the Elahé Omidyar Mir-Djalali Fellowship for Excellence in Persian Studies, which was established at UCLA in 2002.
The UCLA linguistics department's doctoral program has consistently been ranked as one of the top two or three such programs in the U.S. The department began as an interdepartmental graduate master's program in 1960. A doctoral program was introduced in 1962, a bachelor's program was added in 1965, and the department was formally established in 1966.
"We are profoundly grateful to Roshan Cultural Heritage Institute, whose grant expands on years of engagement with UCLA and will allow us to bring the finest postdoctoral scholars to our campus," said David Schaberg, dean of humanities in the UCLA College.
Following a national and international call for applications, the Elahé Omidyar Mir-Djalali Postdoctoral Fellowship will be awarded to a scholar holding a doctorate in Iranian languages and linguistics or a related discipline. The Elahé Omidyar Mir-Djalali Postdoctoral Fellow will be expected to teach courses and conduct research in the field for a two-year term with the possibility of a one-year extension.
Tim Stowell, co-chair of the department, said that thanks to Roshan Cultural Heritage Institute's generosity and vision, the department would solidify its status as a premier destination for the study of Iranian linguistics.


Facebook broke this news on company's quarterly earnings report.
Facebook's operating margin fell 11 percentage points year over year to 46% during the fourth quarter, due to higher infrastructure investments and a 42% increase in its headcount.
Facebook shares jumped 11.5 per cent to $167.67 in after-market trades that followed release of the earnings.
It seems all the attention has allowed Mark Zuckerberg to rethink his plans, as in Facebook's earnings call he now said the plans will have to wait till at least 2020. Facebook had 1.52 billion DAUs during the last quarter of 2018 - up nine percent year-over year - and 2.3 billion monthly active users.
While a large majority of the press warns users about Facebook's practices, the social network continues to grow. The social networking company reported $2.38 earnings per share for the quarter, beating the Thomson Reuters' consensus estimate of $2.18 by $0.20. The CFO did note the company is facing a deceleration of revenue growth in 2019.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg (C) testifies at a joint hearing of the Senate Judiciary and Commerce committees on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C., United States, on April 10, 2018.

However, they are still in "really early" stages of planning this move and they need more time to figure this out. Steinberg Global Asset Management now owns 5,779 shares of the social networking company's stock valued at $758,000 after buying an additional 284 shares during the period. The executive also highlighted the Stories format, which got expanded from Instagram to Facebook's native social networking platform and the Messenger app as well as reached to WhatsApp in the form of Status, is aiming to monetise "at the same levels" as the News Feed.
"In 2019, video will become an even bigger focus with formats like Stories taking center stage across the Facebook Inc. portfolio, which includes Messenger and WhatsApp alongside Instagram and Facebook", says Goldman, "We also expect growth with in-stream video as Facebook delivers more long-form, curated and original programming through Watch and IGTV".

Rudolph exits after scary hit, Ravens edge Steelers in OT
by: WILL GRAVES, Associated Press

PITTSBURGH (AP) — After Pittsburgh quarterback Mason Rudolph was knocked unconscious by a head-high hit in the third quarter Sunday, Justin Tucker made a 46-yard field goal in overtime to lift the Baltimore Ravens past the Steelers 26-23 on Sunday.
Baltimore (3-2) snapped a two-game skid when safety Marlon Humphrey stripped Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster and recovered the fumble at the Pittsburgh 34. Tucker knocked through the winner four plays later.
Lamar Jackson threw for 161 yards with a touchdown and three picks and also ran for a game-high 70 yards. Mark Ingram ran for a touchdown for the Ravens, who won in Pittsburgh (1-4) for the second straight season.
Rudolph threw for 131 yards and a score before suffering a concussion following a hit to the chin by Baltimore safety Earl Thomas. Backup Devlin Hodges played admirably in Rudolph's place, throwing for 68 yards and directing a pair of scoring drives after Rudolph's exit. James Conner ran for 55 yards and a touchdown for Pittsburgh.
Long one of the AFC's most heated rivalries, the game took a turn in the third quarter with the Ravens leading 17-13.
The Steelers were facing third-and-11 at the Pittsburgh 12 midway through the third quarter when Rudolph dropped back to pass. The play broke down and Rudolph scrambled to his left and stepped up field. He flicked the ball to teammate James Washington just before the crown of Thomas' helmet hit Rudolph under the chin. Rudolph fell to the ground and lay on the field motionless for several minutes while several teammates became visibly upset as the stadium fell silent.
The scene of players on both sides going down to one knee while a medical team attended to Rudolph was eerily similar to the on-field reaction in Cincinnati in December, 2017 when Steelers linebacker Ryan Shazier sustained a spinal injury. Rudolph was able to stand up and be helped off the field by several teammates, a move made necessary when the medical cart wouldn't start. Shazier, currently on the Physically Unable to Perform list while he continues his rehab from spinal stabilization surgery, walked over to Rudolph and briefly comforted him as Rudolph made his way to the locker room for further treatment and examination as the crowds chanted "throw him out" at Thomas.
Rudolph's injury thrust Hodges, an undrafted rookie free agent out of Samford, into a role he couldn't have envisioned when the Steelers signed him to be a "camp" arm before organized team activities. He played well in the preseason but didn't make the cut only to find himself signed to the practice squad when Pittsburgh traded Josh Dobbs to Jacksonville. Hodges was elevated to backup status when Roethlisberger went down with an elbow injury.
He trotted onto the field when Rudolph ducked out of view and hardly looked nervous, leading the Steelers on a drive that ended with Conner's 1-yard touchdown run that put the Steelers in front. Baltimore pulled even on Tucker's field goal. Hodges later used a 21-yard sprint to set up Chris Boswell's go-ahead field goal with 2:41 remaining. Jackson countered with a drive that ended with Tucker's third field goal that tied it with 14 seconds remaining.
Pittsburgh won the coin toss to start overtime but curiously opted to kick the ball rather than receive it. The Steelers forced a Baltimore punt, but Humphrey punched the ball out of Smith-Schuster's hands then pounced on it to put the Ravens in position to win.
Ravens: Safety Tony Jefferson went down in the fourth quarter with a left knee injury.
Steelers: Wide receiver James Washington Barron left in the third quarter with a shoulder injury and did not return. Linebacker Mark Barron exited in the second quarter with a hamstring injury.
Ravens: Hosts AFC North rival Cincinnati next Sunday. The teams split their two meetings in 2018.
Steelers: Visit Los Angeles to face the Chargers next Sunday. Los Angeles beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh 33-30 last season.


Next-gen control for analogue hardware synths?
NAMM 2013: If you're an old-school hardware analogue synth owner who fancies getting busy with a bit of touchscreen control, Koma's forthcoming Kontrol Surface might be for you.
This is a 2-axis touchscreen CV controller. Each channel (X and Y) has one CV output, one inverted CV output and a manual gate output.
What's more, there's also a Pro version of the controller in the works that supports MIDI and has a third axis - a capacitive sensor underneath the touch controller that measures the amount of surface that's covered.
Both versions of the Kontrol Surface will be up and running at the Winter NAMM show 2013 in January and shipping by the end of the first quarter of next year.
For now, check out the video above or learn more at the Koma website.

Stunning Drone Footage Of Blue Whale With Her Calf
Sea Shepherd/YouTube
Taking a break from cruising the depths of the Antarctic oceans, a blue whale and her calf came up for a breath of air in this incredible video.
The footage was shot from a drone flown by crew members aboard the Sea Shepherd Society's ship "Steve Irwin." The wildlife conservation activists are currently sailing their ship around the Antarctic as part of "Operation Icefish 2015-16" to search the Southern Ocean for illegal hunting activities.
It's difficult to get a sense of perspective against the open expanse of the ocean, however these whales are known to grow up to 30 meters (98 feet) long. Hunting these gentle giants has been illegal since the 1960s under an international treaty. Despite this, blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) still remain an endangered species.

Q: How to mock function for call multiple time I want to mock functions to using in unit test.
for example:
def b():
    return False

def a():
    b1 = b()
    b2 = b()
    .....

I want to see at first b() calling see "False" and at the second b() calling see "True"
or in other examples call "find_one" function twice
def check_item(user_id:str,item_id):
    # at first check user exist or not
    user=db.find_one('user',user_id)
    if not user:
        return False
    item=db.find_one('item',item_id)
    if not item:
        return False
    return True

(I know it's not a good way to handle checking items and should create a separate function and add own  logic to them :D )
For Mocking the "find_one" function we consider want at the first call isn't none and at the second call should see none.

A: For handel this problem I use "patch" function from "unittest.mock" package and use Mock.side_effect.
when we use side_effect can define at first calling of some function return this mock data and at second function call return something else.
for see more about side_effect can see this  url.
from unittest.mock import patch

mock_user_data={'name':'John',....}
mock_item_data={'item_name':'Pen',...}
m = Mock()
m.side_effect = iter([mock_user_data,None ])

@patch('db.findone',m)
def test_check_item_function_with_nothnig_found_item():
    result = check_item(user_id='sdsas-sdsas-fdf52',item_id=2)
    assert result is False

now with mocking one function and call multiple time can mock return data based on need

A Twist in the Tale
In the soup for having some soup
Update: December, 06/2016 - 10:26
One of the most infuriating sights on the road, especially when one is not guilty of a similar act, is of people driving with one hand on the wheel and a cell-phone in the other, whether it is a motorbike, car or larger vehicles like buses. The infuriation rises if, instead of merely talking on the cell-phone, the drivers start texting, taking their eyes off the road. Yes, doing this is illegal and subject to fines, but it happens all the time.
However, Hồ Thanh Dân went further than all the mobile users of mobile-phones, and he did not even use a phone. (Too smart for that, we guess.) The bus driver, on a long-distance route, took both his hands off the wheel (yes, he was driving, the bus was mobile, not stationary) to enjoy a bowl of noodle soup.
Needless to say, he in the soup now, after someone posted a video online, using a smart phone (Isn't there a lesson in there somewhere?), but the story gets another interesting twist, a legal soup, in fact.
Colonel Hồ Văn Lai, head of Lâm Đồng Province's traffic police department, said yesterday that his officers were having trouble with fixing a suitable penalty for the bus driver, because the law only deals with using phones while driving, nothing about having a bowl of soup. Washing his hands off the affair, in effect, he said the provincial transport department is responsible for fining the driver.
Lai also said the traffic transport police office would request an amendment to the law. As of now, the driver is safe because of a legal loophole, although his action put the lives of dozens of passengers in danger. Well, almost. In another move, transport inspectors have suspended the driver. So, after all the twists and turns, some justice was done. You have to hand it to the officials for finding a way out.
Solving the ethical paradox of Schrodinger's Cat
From Dickensian days, stories have surfaced now and then about orphans being mistreated in orphanages, and similar stories have also emerged about pets in rescue centres.
However, a recent expose of one particular dog and cat rescue centre in Đà Nẵng City has appalled pet lovers nation-wide.
V.V.C, responsible for receiving, taking care of and finding new owners for dogs and cats, was accused by a colleague of selling dogs and cats to slaughterhouses.
Through social media, an old staffer at the centre also accused V.V.C of beating up pets and posting images of the injured animals on Facebook along with tearful stories about their fate, requesting donations to better their lot.
After days of silence, V.V.C responded on Facebook with the real story behind the accusations.
He said he started receiving ownerless pets to take care of in a 10sq.m rental room. He had to sell all his private property to equip the room with facilities for pets. But the room became cramped and neighbours began complaining about the smell and the noise.
Every time they barked or dirtied the neighbourhood, he had to use force to prevent them from disturbing and upsetting neighbours, he wrote.
He confessed that he lacked medical knowledge as well as money to give the animals the care that they deserved. Worse, the "centre" was overloaded with pets.
"I sell some to customers who are pet lovers. Others that no one wants to feed, I must sell to the dog meat restaurant," he wrote.
"I do everything to get enough money to foster the pet rescue centre."
If this explanation does not solve the paradox of Schrodinger's Cat, we can turn to an American general for understanding. He explained a war crime thus: "It became necessary to destroy the town to save it." -- VNS

finally a nylon that is easy to print. i gave up on nylon a few years ago because it was just too much a pia to print with. this carbon fiber nylong is totally different. still fairly flexible but sticks to the bed no problem and warp stays under control. its about the same or slightly less than abs. i guess the carbon keeps the warping in check. sticks no problem to my mic6 bed with hairspray. still has great layer bonding which i was worried about due to the cf. other carbon filaments i have used tend to be brittle and dont layer bond quite as well as their non cf counterparts. while moisture is always an issue with nylon, it does seems to be a little less of an issue with the cf version. overall i am very impressed with this stuff. nice engineering grade, semi flexible filament.

Longlisted for the Orwell Prize
Named a Best Book of the Year by The Times (London), New Statesman (London), Daily Express (London), and Commonweal Magazine
In the summer of 1993, Thomas Harding traveled to Germany with his grandmother to visit a small house by a lake on the outskirts of Berlin. It had been a holiday home for her and her family, but in the 1930s, she had been forced to flee to England as the Nazis swept to power. Nearly twenty years later, the house was government property and soon to be demolished. It was Harding's legacy, one that had been loved, abandoned, fought over-a house his grandmother had desired until her death. Could it be saved? And should it?
When Harding began to make inquiries, he unearthed secrets that had lain hidden for decades about the lives of the five families who had lived there: a wealthy landowner, a prosperous Jewish family, a renowned composer, a widow and her children, and a Stasi informant. The house had been the site of domestic bliss and of contentment, but also of terrible grief and tragedy. As its story began to take shape, Harding realized that there was a chance to save it, but in doing so, he would have to resolve his own family's feelings towards their former homeland-and a hatred handed down through the generations.

Home > Indigenous educators: We must unburden Indigenous patients and learners
Indigenous educators: We must unburden Indigenous patients and learners
June 7, 2022 | Author: Royal College Staff
Why cultural safety is more than just "good patient care"
How Dr. Jillian Roberge and Dr. Ryan Giroux hope to influence change in postgraduate curriculum and accreditation standards as Royal College Indigenous educators
Why all physicians need knowledge of Indigenous health, even if they rarely interact with Indigenous patients
How the lack of foundational knowledge and safe learning environments can burden Indigenous individuals
"I've seen firsthand what racism looks like in the health care system, both in terms of patient interactions and co-worker interactions, and so I feel a responsibility to do something about it."
Jillian Roberge, MD, FRCPC, an emergency physician of Métis heritage, recalls getting involved in Indigenous health education and cultural safety work while doing her specialty training.
"The need was there and, at the time, very few of the post-grad programs had any teaching on it. As a resident myself, I wanted to create a more welcoming environment for the residents and medical students that were coming behind me, and for the patients that we were seeing."
Dr. Roberge and Ryan Giroux, MD, FRCPC — a pediatrician who is also Métis — are new Indigenous educators with the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. Together, they are collaborating with committees, stakeholders and working groups to integrate Indigenous health knowledge and concepts into curriculum development and accreditation standards.
"I'm of mixed background. We often describe it as walking in two worlds. I was able to get to a place where I can impact health care and feel it's my responsibility to do that," says Dr. Giroux.
"Either I can focus all my clinical work on trying to fix something right down at the end, or I can contribute from an advocacy or medical education perspective so that the physicians that come after me have a foundational knowledge that will help make our health care safer for Indigenous patients in Canada."
Dr. Jillian Roberge and Dr. Ryan Giroux (Photo: Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada)
Cultural safety is more than just "good patient care"
Cultural safety has become the dominant term used to define culturally appropriate care for Indigenous patients. While the term has roots in the nursing field and reflects benefits for all patients, it takes on special meaning in the context of Indigenous health.
"There is a long history of harms that have been done to Indigenous Peoples within the field of medicine. There is mistrust that has been borne out of that. So, part of our work is to equip physicians to be safe people for Indigenous patients," says Dr. Roberge.
She adds, "To say that something is culturally safe care is actually defined by the patient. It is particularly critical for Indigenous Peoples because we know that this has morbidity and mortality outcomes for them. A patient-centered, cultural safety approach to care is where we consider the whole patient and the context and, most critically — and this is what sets cultural safety apart from other perspectives like cultural awareness — is the understanding of the role of power differentials."
Dr. Giroux further emphasizes the importance of the patient.
"If you look at things like cultural competency, it centres the provider as the person who needs to learn and it de-centres the patient experience, whereas cultural safety really centres the patient in that context."
Working Indigenous health into curriculum and accreditation
Dr. Roberge has been engaged to lead curriculum development. She is helping map out a process that postgraduate programs can adopt to integrate an introductory level of Indigenous health knowledge for all learners and then within specific programs.
"The aim is for that to be built upon longitudinally within a Competence by Design perspective throughout the training process," she adds, explaining that she is closely liaising with the specialty committees to determine what this will look like and assure it meets their needs.
"The hope is to develop something that's going to help programs to look at themselves in terms of what does reconciliation look like within their program? And then how they can help to educate their learners and to engage with their local communities. We want to try as much as possible to lighten the burden on the local Indigenous health educators that are doing this work on the ground at all of these institutions."
In contrast, Dr. Giroux's role is the accreditation piece. Right now, he is working with Royal College staff to determine a set of recommendations that accreditation committees can use to integrate Indigenous health concepts within the new iteration of the institutional and program standards.
"We know that if concepts or indicators are in accreditation, then it gives programs and institutions direction on what they need to focus on. We are also looking at the bigger process of accreditation and how we can make that more supportive of Indigenous residents and faculty, to continue pushing forward change."
All physicians need knowledge of Indigenous health concepts
According to Dr. Roberge and Dr. Giroux, Indigenous health principles are important for all physicians, even if they feel they do not regularly care for Indigenous patients.
Dr. Roberge explains, "Indigenous folks look all different ways and so I can guarantee that physicians are encountering Indigenous patients. They may not always be aware that they are, and so that's part of the learning."
Likewise, many are working alongside Indigenous colleagues and may not be aware of it.
"I'd also add that some specialties may not directly interface with patients but they are still dealing, in many cases, with part of the person; it's important to understand tissue, blood, placenta as still an extension of that person that you need to be aware of," says Dr. Giroux. He gives the example of an Indigenous patient who may want the placenta back after a placental pathology. While the request may be rare, understanding such requests is important.
Creating safe spaces for Indigenous patients and learners
With more foundational knowledge of Indigenous health, the burden placed on Indigenous individuals to challenge assumptions and help educate others is lessened.
"Throughout medical school and residency, I was the person that people would ask questions of. I was happy to do it but sometimes it really gets to you — like people assuming I don't pay tax or people asking 'how Indigenous are you? You look really white,'" recalls Dr. Giroux. "Sometimes having to explain the same thing over and over can be really draining."
Dr. Roberge remembers a pivotal experience that still haunts her. She was part of a team caring for a visibly Indigenous patient. At a multidisciplinary meeting, racist comments were made about the patient. No one spoke up — including her because she didn't feel safe to do so.
"Driving home that night, I was so angry with myself. I recited all the things I wished I had said in the moment. For that future Indigenous care provider or patient that's in that position, I would wish for a situation where someone would have spoken up because I know in my heart that there were other people at that table who were not comfortable with what was being said.
"With education and with that administrative support and those pathways, my hope is that more people will feel empowered to speak and that future Indigenous learners and team members would have the tools and the support of their non-Indigenous colleagues so that they didn't feel personally responsible to be the only one to speak."

PICKERINGTON, Ohio — Coming hot on the heels of the recent missing marbles caper, kid detective Whip Willbanks, 8, was called into the local police precinct to solve a recent triple homicide in suburban Pickerington.
An elderly couple was found slain in their home with the body of their nephew in their basement. According to Willbanks no weapon was found on the scene, just "a lot of blood".
"Are these for real dead people?" asked the youth sleuth, seemingly horrified.
The lil' detective repeatedly asked if he could play a different game which made the police laugh at his cute gallows humor. Despite the boy crying and saying "I don't know this game," the local police are very confident in Willbanks.
At press time, Willbanks was seen poking one of the bodies with a large stick and crying at its unresponsiveness.
"I want to go home," Willbanks said.
Stephanie Weber has been a ghost this entire time.

HoPE Learning Centers, latest posts, Phonemic Intelligence | Chandra | February 17, 2015 4:14 pm | Comments Off on HoPE Hero Rakesh is a Lifesaver!
There we were taking care of children from the poorest of poor neighborhoods in rural India. We tried our best to support their growth through our HoPE learning centers and also our most innovative Phonemic Intelligence program. But who would have thought that these children would inspire us in turn with their 360 degree transformations and such lofty levels of compassion. Look here, our children, feeding the poor abandoned elderly of their villages. We say proudly, the kids are growing up… We feel inspired, don't you?
I suffered a great deal in my youth from anxiety and fear. This directly affected my studies in a negative way. I was not able to concentrate. My mind was always somewhere else. I would daydream to comfort myself or find myself caught in fear in my mind. My ability to succeed in certain subjects was blocked by these challenges. I was elated to learn as an adult that my challenges could be alleviated and eliminated by changing the condition of my brain. I learned that there were parts of the brain that could get stronger and over time, solve the problems of overwhelm and anxiety.
In my first experiences with practicing Phonemic Intelligence's brain-strengthening exercises, I immediately felt calmer and more focused in the present moment.These discoveries have lead to my passion for sharing the Phonemic Intelligence brain changing education with as many students as possible, especially those students suffering in school.
I have the great joy of my job being: sharing these simple and profound brain- changing exercises with students all over the US. I get to watch students (and teachers!) change and grow as they become empowered by a balanced whole brain state.
What's even more exciting is the proven science behind these experiences. The facts are the facts! Neuroscientists and doctors continue to explain what exactly is happening in the brain and why regular practice of these sound exercises makes us feel better. In addition to the scientifically proven facts we have the experience that it works.
Our science based tools strengthen the anterior cingulate with enhances compassion and empathy.
Our exercise does more than just focus the person who is practicing and this is the experience we have in the classrooms. Even those who don't participate are positively affected by the practice.
My heart is also deeply moved by a high school student who seemed the most resistant and unlikely to participate in the exercise. He sat in the back of the room, with anger on his face, at least it seemed. He did not seem alert or interested. For some reason he became willing to participate and after practice of the exercise he looked at me with bright eyes. He shared that he definitely was skeptical and didn't think it would work at all, but was happy to feel a "deep sense of calm inside" that he doesn't usually feel. He said he felt clear and awake. He was surprised and said he looked forward to trying it again.
These are only a few of the positive daily responses I hear from students, teachers and from our Phonemic Intelligence Champion Volunteers around the globe. There are hundreds of stories of people healing and strengthening their ability to learn.
One of our star pilots this year is at Hope Rural School in Indiantown, Florida US. This pilot was started by Dr. Becky Prostko and Brent Cooper, along with assistance from Mary Ann Unger, Jodie Hartshorne, Rosemary Murphy and Dot Vanderhoff- our Phonemic Intelligence Volunteer Champions in Florida.
We are proud to be working with this progressive school that serves primarily children of migrant workers and fosters values of justice and love. This special school not only strives to educate the children, but also the parents of the students. Their commitment of over 25 years is inspiring!
The Principal of this school agrees with us: giving students tools to strengthen their brains, especially the anterior cingulate, is a powerful gift!
150 students (grades preK-5th grade) and 10 teachers are practicing our core brain strengthening technique every day in the morning before their lessons begin. Teachers report that the less than 10-minute sound exercise has been easy to implement and the students love it.
These brain-changing exercises literally balance both hemispheres of the brain and create an environment for peace and calm, allowing learning to be easier and more effective.
Another star pilot is in Northern California at Dunsmuir Elementary School, Dunsmuir, California started by our Phonemic Intelligence Volunteer Champions: Betsy Hibbits, Sarah Burns and Marrio Romero.
We are proud to partner with teacher Tony Garcia and Principal Helen Herd, and each of the teachers practicing with their students. Many of these children have economic and emotional challenges that affect their ability to learn at school.
These teachers, schools and volunteers are the pioneers out in the field, hands on, experiencing the effects of Phonemic Intelligence. We always ask the students how they feel after they practice the exercise and we hear the most encouraging and amazing responses.
After practicing with the students on a recent visit, to Dunsmuir Elementary a 3rd grade boy responded to our question: "How do you feel, now?" He exclaimed: "I feel excited, because I have a lot of things to do in my life!" I personally have never heard a 3rd grader say that with such enthusiasm and it was inspiring to learn that this student had a broader perspective and a true sense of hope.
A 5th grade student expresses: "I'm going to start practicing the exercise before I read because I have a lot of thoughts when I read." When we asked what she meant, she said she had trouble concentrating while reading because there were too may thoughts in her mind, she was distracted all the time and could not focus. This was my experience as a child-reading comprehension was difficult because of so many thoughts in my head and seems to be a common experience for students.
Our experience of practicing the exercise is that thoughts and anxiety slows down (the activity of the amygdala, slows down) and calm and clarity is the most common response as the anterior cingulate is activated.
Every day in the newspapers and on the news we see concern for students who are distracted and unable to concentrate on their studies at school. At the most extreme, students are suffering from ADD, ADHD and other disorders where they are being medicated to help them focus and learn effectively which is only one solution to putting our brains in a balanced state.
We all know there are many reasons for these disturbing challenges and many side effects to the solution of medication, although necessary in some cases, this is controversial and not an option for everyone. Fortunately educators all over the world are passionate about additional solutions for this!
Tripura Foundation is a part of that solution. Through our cutting edge science based education: Phonemic Intelligence, we are changing the way teachers, families and students experience learning and education all over the world. I have had the amazing opportunity this year to work with Tripura Foundation and to pilot Phonemic Intelligence programs in the US.
In my hometown of San Francisco, we have been piloting our programs at several public schools and after school programs where students and teachers are challenged with overwhelm, anxiety and frustration about achieving all that they need to do in a given school day. In addition students face serious financial and emotional pressures that interfere with the ability to succeed at school.
These feelings of constant overwhelm and anxiety, create a stressful environment for learning, for the teachers and the students.
We have a solution to support our teachers to create healthy environment for learning.
We encourage the teachers to put the core technique as a priority, setting a specific time each day to practice, so it's just part of the routine. It takes less than 10 minutes. The results of this structure and continued practice are beneficial and essential for success and progress.
No one can deny the change everyone feels in the room from after the exercise. Students are smiling, energized and ready to study. It just makes sense!
Labels Don't Matter. Intelligence Does.
"I am very happy to be autistic" says Jacob, 15 year old son of Kristine Barnett. Jacob was diagnosed with autism when he was 2, and doctors said he would never speak. But Kristine did not give up on her son and pushed hard to find a way out and when the teachers told her that there was no hope, she rebelled and took her own path.
"A lot of people thought that I had lost my mind," she recalls. Instead of focusing on Jacob's limitations, Kristine nurtured his interests. Now her 15-year-old son is on track to win a Nobel Prize for his work in theoretical physics.
Interestingly, I myself was mildly dyslexic and when I would look at a question in a test paper, the words would fly out and rearrange themselves and form a different question than the one in the test paper and I would often finish my paper…only to realize that I had written the answer to a question which wasn't even on the paper. My parents and teachers thought that I day dream a lot and that I don't even read the questions properly. They suggested that I focus more in the class and read the questions carefully. But it did not help since my problem was different. I never even mentioned this to anyone except once and at that time someone close to me laughed saying that I day dream too much, and that made me believe that I was stupid and could not even read a question properly. Luckily after I started practising the Phonemic Intelligence technique, this problem disappeared on its own and I am happy to share this story with all of you today. I would like children to benefit from this miracle technique. My own grades tell a tale. I went from getting an average of 6 /10 to getting 9.2/10 in university.
I have since then started to strongly believe that labels do not matter, our intelligence does and I find Phonemic Intelligence is a great tool to boost our intelligence. Thank you.
We have all been convinced that soft skills are a major contributor to success, they certainly are. But we have seen increasingly that people with even the best personalities and soft skills fall short in life only because they could not handle the pressures that life brings upon us. Handling pressure is being seen as a key skill in executive circles now a day. It's always been so in athletics and sports. But now more than ever the stress of daily life leaves us fatigued and frustrated.
If this is the case with us, we cannot even begin to comprehend what it is like for our children and what they have to face. As parents, we try to do everything we possibly can so that our children can have a safe and secure life. But how are we to help them face that which we ourselves could not?
How are we to prepare them for things that we ourselves are not prepared for? The threatening economic conditions, weather, war, diseases. The worst is always yet to come. Are our children prepared for what's to come? What can we do?
One thing is certain we need to remain relaxed under high stress, think clear, weigh our options and choose wisely to be able to live a life of sanity. Now, the question is how do we prepare our kids so that they are more prepared than we were?
Modern science has some answers for us. Increasingly, brain research is becoming a key area of focus for Government and Scientific community worldwide. This increased interest in brain research is born out of an anguish of the scientific community which claims we know less than 5% of our brain, or shall I say less than 5% of ourselves? More and more research is being funded to understand the brain. The importance of better brain functioning is well established and there have been numerous studies that have facilitated an understanding of how the different parts of brain control our psychology and wellbeing.
We at Tripura Foundation believe in leaving no stone unturned for our kids. We believe so do you.
We know that formal education, tutoring, nutrition are easy to provide if you are relatively well off but how do you give them a better, faster and smarter brain? which is key in today's world. The answer lies in Tripura Foundation's Founder, Dr. Pillai's 30 years of research on sounds and their beneficial effect on the brain. Studies done by Dr. Pillai and numerous other research groups have produced surprising results in very short time frames.
We are talking about helping our kids achieve higher grades, more peaceful behaviour and much better ability to handle the stress of daily life.
Phonemic Intelligence is our key solution to the many problems and challenges that face our children, problems that soft skill training and formal education are just not prepared to handle.
Looking forward to a better future for all our children.

Iskwé has released a new single Soldier from her upcoming album The Fight Within, out October 13. Describing the song she says "It's impossible to know what shape our planet will be in several generations down the road. What I do know is that we need to do better. Soldier is for all the protectors of our land, our water and our future generations.
While my music is undoubtedly a source of deep, personal strength for me, it is also a form of protest––protest against the continued hardships of the North American Indigenous community, protest against flippant legislature failing to protect our lands and waterways, and protest against fallout women face when speaking out on issues within the music industry.
