Question: How fast and how many miles on a full charge can the electric board go?
Question: Does it have problems with bringing it with you through air travel?
Answer: I can't imagine it would be easy, it's a large and heavy longboard but I suppose it could be possible.
Question: Does it go uphill?
Question: Can I take it when I'm flying to Europe?
Question: How water resistant is this, will it still function if it goes through a small puddle?
Answer: Do not ride on wet or icy pavement. Any amount of water has the potential to damage the board, and water damage is not covered under warranty. Riding on wet or slippery pavement is extremely dangerous due to the potential for losing traction and control.
Question: Is it waterproof? I need to know, coastal city.
Answer: No, it is not water "proof." (You could not immerse it in water.) It is water "resistant," however. It will handle some splashes and a little water. In general, electric rideable should be kept as dry as possible.
Question: What are the dimensions and what is the weight of the board?
Answer: The dimensions are approximately 46.5 x 21 x 11, and the weight is 71 pounds.


Doravirine is a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) infection. A population pharmacokinetic (PK) model was developed for doravirine using pooled data from densely sampled phase 1 trials and from sparsely sampled phase 2b and phase 3 trials evaluating doravirine administered orally as a single entity or as part of a fixed-dose combination of doravirine-lamivudine-tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. A one-compartment model with linear clearance from the central compartment adequately described the clinical PK of doravirine. While weight, age, and healthy versus HIV-1 status were identified as statistically significant covariates affecting doravirine PK, the magnitude of their effects was not clinically meaningful. Other intrinsic factors (gender, body mass index, race, ethnicity, and renal function) did not have statistically significant or clinically meaningful effects on doravirine PK. Individual exposure estimates for individuals in the phase 2b and 3 trials obtained from the final model were used for subsequent exposure-response analyses for virologic response (proportion of individuals achieving <50 copies/ml) and virologic failure. The exposure-response relationships between these efficacy endpoints and doravirine PK were generally flat over the range of exposures achieved for the 100 mg once-daily regimen in the phase 3 trials, with a minimal decrease in efficacy in individuals in the lowest 10th percentile of steady-state doravirine concentration at 24 h values. These findings support 100 mg once daily as the selected dose of doravirine, with no dose adjustment warranted for the studied intrinsic factors.

Hi dear friend. Yes, another amazing trip. This one was so much more difficult to take that leap of faith. But no doubts that this is where we are supposed to be. God is faithful, amazing and sovereign that we surely know. The family we built for was so amazing, truly orchestrated by God. Looking forward to sharing all of that with you over a hot cup of coffee. Thank you for your constant prayers. We feel them and they hold us up each day and are keeping us strong. I am so amazed at the strength Scott has. Experiencing this all with him is such a blessing. Please continue to pray for us through the remainder of the journey. And pray that MIRACLES can happen here! Love you friend and will see you soon.
It is so cool to hear little tidbits of each persons experience as I read the blogs. I am so glad everyone is staying healthy and for the strength and stamina God is giving Scott! And what an awesome story about Seth! God is so good to personalize our experiences for each person. I bet Seth is growing so much spiritually through this trip but also through experiencing this with his amazing parents. I am wishing so often that I could be experiencing this with all of you but as I watch little Romey right now, I know God has other plans this time! I am continuing to pray for health, strength, stamina, barriers to be broken and most of all for Miracles! They are coming my friend, I feel it in every fiber of my being.
I can't wait to hear about this last medical clinic!
Oh Sharla! I cant even begin to tell you how powerful this trip has been. Especially for this amazing group of young people. They are truly amazing and God is working in their hearts! They will come away from this forever changed in the most amazing way. Very powerful prayer tonight in the village with the villagers, the village pastor, hermano Jesus and our whole team praying over Scott, Esuardo and Britt. Words can't really describe it. Ive never experienced anything like it. I soooo look forward to seeing you when I get home and talking to you about this trip. Its late, just back from the medical clinin a little after 11pm. So tired!! Just physically and emotionally drained… but in a good way! You my friend are exactly where you need to be! I am so happy about the update on beautiful Romey! God is doing great things! Faith like a mustard seed, friend. Faith like a mustard seed! Most times I feel its really all I have but just look what God does with it!! He is so faithful!! Love you dear one and I will see you soon!!!
Last night Sharla sent out a text saying she felt a strong sense that we needed to pray for Scott at that exact time. I guarantee it was right around that same that Scott, Britt, and Esuardo were being prayed over!! We cannot wait to hear all about this amazing trip and all that God has done. Kevin shared with us about the medical clinic the night before and how the girls rallied around Seth. God sure has blessed us all with quite the amazing group of teenagers!!! Love you so much girl and we can't wait to see you guys when you get off the plane….and I'll have a beautiful sweet girl with me that I know will be even more excited to see you!!!
hi there! I can't tell you how excited I am to sit down with you after you get home! Jamie shared a little that has been shared with her about how the teens (well, everybody 😉 are feeling so impacted by your time there. What an indescribable blessing that is for you all. Praying that you continue to feel God moving in ways you never have before and that those things can be carried with you as get ready to travel back to "normal life". Praying you feel a renewing of your spirit that only God can give. Love you friend and praying you safely home!
Renewing of the spirit!! you hit the nail on the head. Its been an experience we will not soon forget. God has tought me even more about authentic faith in my time here. Yes, please pray us home. you know how the enemy wants to hit as we leave these experiences and after the work we have done for the kingdom. Fervent prayers of protection would be a huge blessing. See you soon, friend! love you!
Wow, that is totally God that Hermano Jesus and the village pastor prayed with all 3 of them. It just gives me chills. That mustard seed faith is all God asks of us so anything else is just a bonus faith! Thanks for sharing more we are devouring everything everyone is sharing, it's our way of experiencing it with you all! I know it is so hard to leave because it is such a spiritual high but now you get bring that Holy fire back here and watch how God will work all around you. I can't wait to hear more and praying you all through final devo night!

Manager Paul Cox has remained tight-lipped following speculation that clubs higher in the football pyramid are interested in securing the services of Sam Clucas.
It has been reported elsewhere in the media within the last hour that a Championship club has tabled a bid for the 23-year-old, whilst other clubs have also reputedly shown an interest in the midfielder.
Manager Paul Cox told www.mansfieldtown.net: "The interest in Sam doesn't surprise me as he is a quality footballer."
Clucas has scored 11 goals in 24 appearances for us since making the switch from Hereford United in the summer.

Today, I have set out a clear vision for the future of this country as we leave the European Union. It's a plan for a stronger, fairer, Global Britain and a brighter future for generations to come.
A stronger Britain means taking back control of our laws – so that we are governed by rules made in this country, and ending the jurisdiction of the European Court. It means working closely with the Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Ireland administrations to deliver a Brexit that works for every part of the UK and thereby strengthens the precious ties between us; and maintaining the important common travel area with the Republic of Ireland.
A fairer Britain means getting control of the number of people coming to Britain from the EU. It means guaranteeing the rights of EU citizens living here, as our European partners guarantee the rights of British nationals living there. And – crucially – it means protecting and strengthening the rights people have at work so that workers continue to enjoy the rights and protections that they deserve.
A Global Britain means building a new trading relationship with our partners in Europe. But also, being free to do new trade deals with countries from outside the European Union too. And it means continuing to cooperate with our friends and allies in Europe in critical areas such as science and technology, and in the fight against crime and terrorism.
We will do all of this while providing as much certainty as we can at every stage of the negotiation, and working towards a smooth, orderly Brexit that allows businesses and others to face the future with confidence.
We are leaving the European Union, but we are not leaving Europe, and our plan for Brexit will herald a new partnership between the UK and the EU. Our eyes are fixed firmly on the future, and on the kind of country we will build for generations to come. A stronger, fairer, outward-looking country that is respected around the world and strong, confident and united at home.
That's the Britain we will shape together. That's my Plan for Britain.

Tanzania's blood-red lake snapped from space by NASA
Pretty. And pretty deadly.
by Alexandru Micu
in GeoPicture, Space
On March 6, 2017, NASA's Landsat 8 satellite swooped over Tanzania and snapped some incredible pictures of its ruby-red lake.
Click for full resolution.
Image credits NASA Earth Observatory.
Northern Tanzania is home to a beautiful, bloody-crimson body of water known as Lake Natron. Apart from its striking hue, the water also has a high concentration of natural salts, making it very alkaline, up to 10.5 on the pH scale.
So what makes a lake turn ruby-red and almost as caustic as ammonia? Well, it all comes down to the area's geology, particularly its volcanism. The lake sits about 20km north of Ol Doinyo Lengai, an active volcano that juts out of the surrounding plain. Ol Doinyo Lengai is the only volcano known to have ever released carbonatite lava (poor in silica, rich in carbonate minerals) in human history, which is more chemically similar to sedimentary rocks than other types of lava (which are predominantly silica).
Its products flow, fall, roll, and push through faults all the way to the lake, enriching it in alkaline salts and other material. Waterwise, Lake Natron is chiefly supplied by the Southern Ewaso Ng'iro River and mineral-rich hot springs that are powered by Ol Doinyo's volcanism. Minerals and salts released by this process, particularly sodium carbonate, push the waters of Lake Natron even higher beyond water's neutral 7 point mark on the pH scale.
Detail of the lake.
Image modified after NASA Earth Observatory.
These conditions are ripe for holoarchaea, a class of microorganisms which thrives in salty environments. As they multiply, the holoarchaea lend the water its red hue — the rainy seasons in the area runs from March to May and at the time Landsat passed over Lake Natron, the water level was particularly low and the salt ponds were very colorful.
Most animals (us too) can't handle water as alkaline and salty as this, but Lake Natron is home to a few species which have adapted to withstand the harsh chemical conditions. Flocks of birds often camp on its shores, and tilapia fish brave its briny waters. Flamingos, in particular, favor the area as a nesting site during the dry season, since moat-like channels and the harsh waters make an ideal fortification against predators.
The climate here is arid. In a non-El Niño year, the lake receives less than 500 millimeters (20 inches) of rain. Evaporation usually exceeds that amount, so the lake relies on other sources—such as the Ewaso Ng'iro River at the north end—to maintain a supply of water through the dry season.
But it's the region's volcanism that leads to the lake's unusual chemistry. Volcanoes, such as Ol Doinyo Lengai (about 20 kilometers to the south), produce molten mixtures of sodium carbonate and calcium carbonate salts. The mixture moves through the ground via a system of faults and wells up in more than 20 hot springs that ultimately empty into the lake. The lake, however, can be a double-edged sword — as this flamingo can attest.

The Champion Who Was Left for Dead and Rose Again
By Tereza Antonova January 31, 2020 at 9:20 am 6 min reading
His cycling journey began when he was seventeen and lasted for an impressive seven decades. This incredible persona made New Zealand's racing history and yet almost nobody talks about him in our little world of cycling. Let's fix this unfortunate mistake and tell a story of one of the greatest Maori cyclists of all time.
Wiremu Paratene was born in 1909 in New Zealand. Unfortunately, his mother died giving birth to him so little Wiremu was cared for by his grandmother who sadly also died shortly after. The orphaned boy was placed in a foster family who altered his name to William (Bill) Pratney. It was then when it turned out that Bill was a talented athlete and so he decided to pursue his gift. The poor orphan child had limited means so he made his first racing bicycle out of a bed frame.
The career of the young "iron man" (as they used to call him) started in 1926, and it started in quite a turbulent way. In 1930, while attending a race in Auckland, he suffered a horrendous accident. The other rider involved died right on the spot. Bill seemed lifeless as well so he was left for dead on the street. After a couple of hours, luckily, a bystander noticed a little twitch in his hand and Bill was transferred to a hospital.
He was in a coma for three days but survived. No one in the hospital gave him chances to ever cycle again, let alone race professionally. Miraculously, his recovery only took three weeks and the New Zealanders had their cycling superhero back on the track in better shape than ever. Pratney began his win-it-all journey, conquering every race distance up to 120 miles. That habit earned him a fitting "Bye Bye Bill" nickname. His finishing sprint became notorious.
Bill Pratney races Warwick Dalton in 1982
In 1937, Bill defeated the great Harry Watson, New Zealand's first racer to attend the Tour de France. Aged 45 he attended the Timaru-Christchurch classic and, of course, won. That same year he would ride a nonstop 6-day-race and spice up his performance with riding twelve hours without a break as a member of his team got injured and couldn't finish the race.
When he turned 47, Bill retired. 40 years after, he decided it was about time to get back. And so he did. In 1991, Bill Pratney joined the Australian Masters Games. A couple of months of training and he stole the gold from his 40 years younger rivals. Well, to be more precise, he did not actually steal the gold as he couldn't officially be proclaimed the winner. 83 years of age was well over the age limit.
Bill's last big race took place when he was 86. Six years later, he left for the cycling heaven where, we're sure, he's laughing at those who end their cycling career in their forties.

Shahroz and I co-parent Nooreh: Syra Yousuf
Actor Syra Yousuf has graced the small screen once again with her most recent venture, Sinf e Aahan, in which she plays the role of a soldier from a Christian background.
Yousuf made her debut as Nazia in the serial Mera Naseeb.
In an interview, Syra shed light on her career trajectory, catering to intrusions in her personal life by journalists and how motherhood changed her perspective towards work-life balance.
Syra Yousuf and Shahroze Sabzwari announced their divorce in 2020. Sabzwari went on to marry model Sadaf Kanwal the same year.

Yousuf spoke about how she coped with the personal tragedy. She felt exposed as the media reporting regarding her personal life was "very insensitive".
"I kept wondering when would they (media) stop talking about my grief so that I could have the chance to process it on my own," shared Syra, before iterating that she had grown through the "toughest phase in her life".
The actor said she eventually had to "shut out" from the outside world and "go inwards".
"In shutting out from the outside world, I had the chance to go on an inward journey. Sometimes uncomfortable scenarios can help you rebrand yourself and end up in a better place," said Syra.
"When I became a mother, I became very selective about my work. As a mother, you can't stop thinking about your kid and what makes them uncomfortable or comfortable. I used to ponder the dynamics of different projects, the time I would get with my daughter and how it would affect her."
When asked how the actor deals with being a single mother, she said she never felt like a single mother as the two co-parent their daughter.
"Shahroz and I ensure that we co-parent Nooreh," she explained.

Productivity of Nepali employees erodes to negative in last one decade
Productivity of Nepali employees has eroded and dropped to negative in last one decade from 2002 to 2011, according to a draft National Employment Policy 2013. Though, the number of employment has increased in last one decade, the productivity of the employees has plunged to negative, it said, adding that the productivity could ensure the handsome salary and respectable employment situation. However, the productivity that stood at 3.71 per cent – the highest in last one decade – in 2007 has dropped to -1.03 in 2011, the draft added. Without increased productivity, the employees cannot bargain for the handsome salary, said Prof Rajendra Prasad Shrestha, who is helping the Ministry of Labour and Employment draft the National Employment Policy. Due to prolonged political transition and scheduled power outage, the entrepreneurs have not established any new industry in last couple of years, though the number of youths coming to labour market every year has not seen any drop. According to the figures, in 2002, some 12.13 million were employed, whereas the employment has increased to 15.09 million in 2011, but the rising number of unemployment and migrants do not match the figures as the country has a total population of 26.5 million. According to International Labour Organisation (ILO) definition, Nepal has unemployment rate of only 2.1 per cent "but the problem in the country is not unemployment but underemployment," Shrestha added. "The urban unemployment is higher than the rural unemployment, though there is no different in male and female unemployment."

Q: Recieving an array in VB.NET from a php (NuSOAP) web service I have successfully managed to run many php (NuSOAP) web services from VB.NET, however I am unable return an array without the following error:

"There is an error in XML document (1, x)."

For the following three instances, I am able to get it working from php to php (NuSOAP), but from VB.NET to php(NuSOAP), it always returns the above error. These are the three examples.
xsd:Array

$server->wsdl->addComplexType(
 'ArrayOfString',
 'complexType',
 'array',
 'sequence',
 '',
 array(
  'itemName' => array(
   'name' => 'itemName',
   'type' => 'xsd:string',
   'minOccurs' => '0',
   'maxOccurs' => 'unbounded'
  )
 )
);

$server->wsdl->addComplexType(
 'Users',
 'complexType',
 'struct',
 'all',
 '',
 array( 'Users' => array('name' => 'UsersIn',
   'type' => 'xsd:Array'))
);

Is this a limitation, or is there something else I can do? Thanks

Edit:
OK, I've searched far and wide for this issue and seen so many that have tried to solve it but none succeed. It appears to be a.NET issue possibly due to php communication, so I would rule out NuSOAP because I hardcoded the same thing in pure php and it resulted in the same problem.
I have also looked at the xml files returned by SOAP and they all validated while the error locations were in pretty harmless locations. I think possibly the xml file it is looking at may not actually be the one returned by SOAP but something else or otherwise recently serialized, the reference is, 'System.Xml.dll'.
I also played around with some basic encoding on the database and SOAP server but that didn't change the result.

Das öffentliche Verbrennen von Flaggen ist in der Regel eine symbolische Handlung, um gegen einen Staat oder dessen Politik im Rahmen einer Demonstration zu protestieren. Die Flaggen werden entweder ohne Vorbereitung angezündet oder, medienwirksamer, vorher mit Brandbeschleuniger übergossen.

Beispiele
Bekannte Fälle sind unter anderem die Bewegung gegen den Vietnamkrieg, bei deren Demonstrationen Flaggen der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika sowohl in den USA selbst als auch in Westeuropa brannten. Die radikale Linke in Westeuropa verwendete diese Protestform regelmäßig bei Protesten gegen die Politik der USA. Verbrannt wurden aber auch Fahnen des eigenen Landes, wenn damit auf den Zusammenhang zwischen der Politik der USA und beispielsweise Deutschlands hingewiesen werden sollte.

Im Zusammenhang mit Demonstrationen in islamischen Staaten zur Unterstützung der Intifada werden regelmäßig Flaggen der USA, Israels und Großbritanniens verbrannt. Während des Karikaturenstreits wurden auch Flaggen verschiedener europäischer Staaten wie jene Dänemarks und Deutschlands verbrannt.

Juristischer Hintergrund
In Deutschland steht das Verbrennen einer "öffentlich gezeigten Flagge der Bundesrepublik Deutschland oder eines ihrer Länder" unter Strafe (Verunglimpfung des Staates und seiner Symbole,  StGB). Auch der Versuch ist strafbar.

Das Verbrennen ausländischer Flaggen ist in Deutschland strafbar, wenn es sich um "eine auf Grund von Rechtsvorschriften oder nach anerkanntem Brauch öffentlich gezeigte Flagge eines ausländischen Staates" handelt ( StGB). Seit dem 24. Juni 2020 steht zudem das öffentliche Verbrennen oder Beschädigen ausländischer Flaggen (sowie Flaggen, welche zum Verwechseln ähnlich aussehen) unter Strafe. Anlass war das wiederholte Verbrennen israelischer Fahnen bei Demonstrationen, darunter im Dezember 2017 in Berlin.

In Österreich ist die Flaggenverbrennung nicht ausdrücklich verboten. Es gilt  Strafgesetzbuch (Herabwürdigung des Staates und seiner Symbole), wonach mit bis zu 6 Monaten Freiheits- oder 360 Tagsätzen Geldstrafe bestraft wird wer:

auf eine Art, dass die Tat einer breiten Öffentlichkeit bekannt wird,
in gehässiger Weise,
eine aus einem öffentlichen Anlass oder bei einer allgemein zugänglichen Veranstaltung gezeigte Fahne der Republik Österreich oder eines ihrer Bundesländer beschimpft, verächtlich macht oder sonst herabwürdigt.

Unter anderen Umständen ist z. B. das Verbrennen einer eigenen Fahne im Rahmen einer Demonstration o. Ä. nicht verboten.

 StGB (Herabwürdigung fremder Symbole) schützt Flaggen fremder Staaten und internationaler Organisationen, sofern die Republik Österreich diplomatische Beziehungen zu diesen unterhält bzw. der jeweiligen Organisation angehört und diese Fahnen von den eigenen oder fremden Behörden angebracht wurden.

In den USA steht der eigentliche Akt des Verbrennens der eigenen Flagge nicht unter Strafe, einige Organisationen wie die Boy Scouts of America oder die Amerikanische Legion verbrennen beschädigte oder verschmutzte Flaggen sogar als rituelle Ehrerbietung. Es kann aber strafrechtlich verfolgt werden, wenn dabei die öffentliche Ordnung gestört oder fremdes Eigentum beschädigt wird. Bestrebungen, die Verfassung um die Strafbarkeit zu erweitern, beschreibt das Flag Desecration Amendment (Flaggenschändungsergänzung).

Traveling with children can be stressful, so make it easier by following these tips when you're staying in a hotel with the whole family.
Call the general manager and see if the hotel will give you an additional discount for a second room if you are traveling with children and you require 2 rooms or a suite.
Ask if the hotel is full. If it isn't, ask for a room that does not have guests on either side. This will allow your children some freedom to be themselves without your having to constantly tell them to be quiet.
Know the difference between adjoining rooms and adjacent rooms. Adjoining rooms have a door between the rooms. Adjacent rooms are 2 rooms next to each other without a connecting door. Many people confuse the 2 kinds of rooms. When they arrive at the hotel, they realize they have to go into the hallway to get to their children's room.
Let the hotel know what your children like. Kids like to be recognized just as you do.
Bring safety plugs for outlets if you have small children or toddlers. Not all hotels are equipped with them.
Ask for a mini refrigerator in your room.
Let the hotel know if your child is prone to nighttime accidents. The staff will dress the bed accordingly.
Ensure that the hotel has a room service menu for children if you plan on using this amenity. If it doesn't, ask for a child-size plate. The hotel should accommodate you and give you a discount as well.
Check that windows don't open too much before allowing your child to roam.
Don't stay at a hotel if it charges you extra for a child younger than 12.
Don't let your child roam the hallways unattended. Ever.
Don't let your child push the elevator buttons. Guests don't feel like stopping at every floor.
Don't travel with your child's favorite blanket if it can be avoided! Too many times, a blanket is lost and a child is heartbroken.
Don't ever let a child on a balcony unattended.

A boat trailer is a trailer designed to launch, retrieve, carry and sometimes store boats.
Prior to the 20th century, freight was generally transported overland via trains and railroads. During this time, trains were essential, and they were highly efficient at moving large amounts of freight. But, they could only deliver that freight to urban centers for distribution by horse-drawn transport. Though there were several trucks throughout this time, they were used more as space for advertising that for actual utility. At this time, the use of range for trucks was quite challenging. The use of electric engines, lack of paved rural roads, and small load capacities limited trucks to most short-haul urban routes.
In many countries, driving a truck requires a special driving license. The requirements and limitations vary with each different jurisdiction.
The Motor Carrier Act, passed by Congress in 1935, replace the code of competition. The authorization the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) place was to regulate the trucking industry. Since then the ICC has been long abolished, however, it did quite a lot during its time. Based on the recommendations given by the ICC, Congress enacted the first hours of services regulation in 1938. This limited driving hours of truck and bus drivers. In 1941, the ICC reported that inconsistent weight limitation imposed by the states cause problems to effective interstate truck commerce.
" The first original song about truck driving appeared in 1939 when Cliff Bruner and His Boys recorded Ted Daffan's "Truck Driver's Blues," a song explicitly marketed to roadside cafe owners who were installing juke boxes in record numbers to serve truckers and other motorists." - Shane Hamilton
Trucks of the era mostly used two-cylinder engines and had a carrying capacity of 1,500 to 2,000 kilograms (3,300 to 4,400 lb). In 1904, 700 heavy trucks were built in the United States, 1000 in 1907, 6000 in 1910, and 25000 in 1914. A Benz truck modified by Netphener company (1895)
A moving scam is a scam by a moving company in which the company provides an estimate, loads the goods, then states a much higher price to deliver the goods, effectively holding the goods as lien but does this without do a change of order or revised estimate.
The American Trucking Associations initiated in 1985 with the intent to improve the industry's image. With public opinion declining the association tried numerous moves. One such move was changing the name of the "National Truck Rodeo" to the "National Driving Championship". This was due to the fact that the word rodeo seemed to imply recklessness and reckless driving.
In some states, a business route is designated by adding the letter "B" after the number instead of placing a "Business" sign above it. For example, Arkansas signs US business route 71 as "US 71B". On some route shields and road signs, the word "business" is shortened to just "BUS". This abbreviation is rare and usually avoided to prevent confusion with bus routes.
Within the world of transportation, bypass routes are often very controversial. This is mostly due to the fact that they require the building of a road carrying heavy traffic where no road existed before. This has created conflict among society thus creating a divergence between those in support of bypasses and those who are opposed. Supporters believe they reduce congestion in built up areas. Those in opposition do not believe in developing (often rural) undeveloped land. In addition, the cities that are bypassed may also oppose such a project as reduced traffic may, in turn, reduce and damage business.
In 1893, the Office of Road Inquiry (ORI) was established as an organization. However, in 1905 the name was changed to the Office Public Records (OPR). The organization then went on to become a division of the United States Department of Agriculture. As seen throughout history, organizations seem incapable of maintaining permanent names. So, the organization's name was changed three more times, first in 1915 to the Bureau of Public Roads and again in 1939 to the Public Roads Administration (PRA). Yet again, the name was later shifted to the Federal Works Agency, although it was abolished in 1949. Finally, in 1949, the name reverted to the Bureau of Public Roads, falling under the Department of Commerce. With so many name changes, it can be difficult to keep up to date with such organizations. This is why it is most important to research and educate yourself on such matters.
Throughout the United States, bypass routes are a special type of route most commonly used on an alternative routing of a highway around a town. Specifically when the main route of the highway goes through the town. Originally, these routes were designated as "truck routes" as a means to divert trucking traffic away from towns. However, this name was later changed by AASHTO in 1959 to what we now call a "bypass". Many "truck routes" continue to remain regardless that the mainline of the highway prohibits trucks.
The 1950's were quite different than the years to come. They were more likely to be considered "Knights of the Road", if you will, for helping stranded travelers. In these times truck drivers were envied and were viewed as an opposition to the book "The Organization Man". Bestseller in 1956, author William H. Whyte's novel describes "the man in the gray flannel suit", who sat in an office every day. He's describing a typical office style job that is very structured with managers watching over everyone. Truck drivers represented the opposite of all these concepts. Popular trucking songs glorified the life of drivers as independent "wanderers". Yet, there were attempts to bring back the factory style efficiency, such as using tachnographs. Although most attempts resulted in little success. Drivers routinely sabotaged and discovered new ways to falsify the machine's records.
Words have always had a different meaning or have been used interchangeably with others across all cultures. In the United States, Canada, and the Philippines the word "truck" is mostly reserved for larger vehicles. Although in Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa, the word "truck" is generally reserved for large vehicles. In Australia and New Zealand, a pickup truck is usually called a ute, short for "utility". While over in South Africa it is called a bakkie (Afrikaans: "small open container"). The United Kingdom, India, Malaysia, Singapore, Ireland, and Hong Kong use the "lorry" instead of truck, but only for medium and heavy types.

HPSPCB member secy pulled up over statement on illegal mining
Anand Bodh | TNN | Updated: Mar 29, 2019, 7:52 IST
Shimla: While hearing a matter related to illegal sand mining in Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh, the National Green Tribunal (NGT) has pulled up member secretary, Himachal Pradesh State Pollution Control Board (HPSPCB), for submitting that the matter did not fall under its purview.
The tribunal said that the statement showed lack of knowledge of environmental law on the part of member secretary. Disposing of the matter, the tribunal directed the chief secretary, Himachal Pradesh, to appropriately counsel the member secretary so that he could acquire minimum knowledge required for performing his duties.
Against illegal mining in Kangra district, Mand Area Environment Conservation Committee through a letter had approached the NGT. The allegation in this letter, which has been treated as an application, was that illegal stone mining was taking place and stone crushers were being operated in Indora and Fatehpur tehsils in Kangra.
Vide order dated December 21, last year, HPSPCB and district collector Kangra were directed by the tribunal to furnish a factual and action taken report in the matter within a month. Accordingly, a report on March 6 was filed by member secretary, stating that stone crushers were found to be compliant. In the affidavit, it was further submitted that issues of alleged illegal mining did not fall in the purview of the state pollution control board and illegal mining was to be checked by the geological wing of industries department under the Mines and Mineral Act, 1957.
"We find the above statement to be lacking in knowledge of environmental law on the part of the member secretary, state PCB. The environment norms can certainly be overseen by the state PCB even if there is some overlapping," observed the principal bench of a tribunal headed by its chairperson Justice Adarsh Kumar Goel in the order issued on Tuesday.
The principal bench further observed that the mining department may mainly oversee the compliance of mining laws. The state PCB cannot disown the responsibility of overseeing the monitoring and compliance of environmental norms, it added. The tribunal while disposing of this matter directed the chief secretary to appropriately counsel the member secretary so that he can acquire minimum knowledge required for performing his duties. It asked it to send a copy of this order to the chief secretary for the purpose by e-mail.

Q: Keep brightness high whilst multiplexing [SOLVED] I have searched a little but I'm a noob to electronics so it was hard for me to understand. So here is my problem. I have made a little 3 x 3 led matrix to test. When powering 1 led it was fine, but when I tried 3 at once, they were all dim. Should I be using a 100 ohm resistor instead of 220? Please give a simple and detailed response. Like I said, I'm new to all of this. (keep in mind this is just a test. I wouldnt actually use multiplexing to power 9 leds.)

A: I don't see a schematic. 3 x 3 LEDs is 9 LEDs.
If you are running the LEDs at 33% duty cycle (3 of 9 at once) then you need to pass 3x the current for the same brightness as DC (approximately).
So if 220 ohms looks okay to you, then more like 68 ohms (the LED forward voltage will rise a bit). That may be enough to damage the LED if the multiplexing stops.
That means that the LED is actually a bit less efficient if you are multiplexing it. The reason to multiplex is to reduce the number of drivers and port pins. If you want to be able to run 9 LEDs at 15mA average current then you need 130mA total. There is no free lunch.

A: I put in a small delay between code chunks. I also used 2 100 ohm resistors parallel for each column, so I got REALLY bright lights. (Don't do this unless you plan on having every light on at same time. If you run a LED through a 50 ohm resistance, you will wreck the LED and potentially also wreck the Arduino too. Be very careful when experimenting with low resistance, it can really benefit you, or it could cost you like 100 bucks. Basically what the guy who answered this said.)


Turquoise Blue Kitchen Curtains - The kitchen is one of the most intimate places in the whole house. It is the location where families common in order to eat breakfast and to look for bites and also the location where meals are ready. It is, therefore, significant that the kitchen seems great and many have invested significantly in the appearance of the kitchen. One investment could maintain kitchen tiles which could improve the appearance of the kitchen.
Others have invested in copper sinks which may be quite ideal for modern houses since they're long lasting and are extremely hygienic. Of every one of these enhancements, one of the finest is kitchen curtains. There are a couple of suggestions you can consider before adding kitchen curtains. First thing before placing curtains to consider is the size. Size is essential because it determines the quantity of light that comes to the kitchen and indeed the entire house.
Large windows will automatically mean because they will need to correspond to how big the windows you'll have to cover more for curtains. Then curtains usually are not absolutely necessary and you can simply take pleasure in the view and in addition let in just as much light as you possibly can, if you're too far in the neighbors, like those who live out in the nation or on a ranch.
Additionally it is necessary to check and see where just the window is set, before you add shower curtains. Then it mightn't be wise because the curtains if the window is near the range possess a way of absorbing moisture particularly the steam that comes in the food. This may cause a musky scent to permeate the complete house due to that. From the different foods increasing the chance of a fire and from the steam, the curtains might also consume grease sometimes.

Traveling is a lot more fun and convenient when done in an RV. You can set your own pace and detour wherever, whenever, you feel like it. Gerry and I love to travel . Now that we have the RV though, and Gerry is possibly retiring next year, we will be going out on more road trips with it, so we want to equip it as best we can with products of home and safety features for us as well.
When we received the Dorcy LED Motion Sensor Flood Light for the outside of RV, we were quite pleased! It is a great safety feature that we can add to the RV and are anxious to review it. Too bad it's winter and the RV is still covered so we'll have to wait until spring comes to have it set up on the RV.Gerry did try it out in the house and outdoors in the yard and said it offered great coverage.
Please note- this product is not just for camping or RV use.. it also works very well mounted in other areas of the home as well. Gerry said too it comes off the mount so works good to take off if raining or if one needs to use it for another purpose while at their location.
So stay tuned for that review as I am sure if you are an RV owner like us, you will find this product useful for your next camping trip as well.
