One of the most important steps when preparing a new trademark application is creating the list of the products or services that the trademark will identify.
Think about it: This list defines the scope of your registered rights in a mark. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) will use this list to determine whether your mark is confusingly similar to those in prior applications and registrations, and competitors will use it to gauge whether they can get away with adopting a similar brand. Plus, if your description of goods and services is inaccurate, your trademark registration can be exposed to cancellation. High stakes!
You will no doubt have received many updates from IP law firms discussing the potentially new landscape for IP rights in the UK and EU in the longer term. Some are long, some short, some academic, but maybe not all practical.
The following briefing answers some of the more practical questions and concerns around managing your trade mark portfolio in light of Brexit. With change comes opportunity, and we at HGF are here to help you maximise that opportunity. We do not claim to know all that will transpire in the next few years come Brexit, no one does, but we hope these initial practical pointers below will help you along the way.

The Academy of Dance Arts proudly presents Dancing Through the Seasons. This dance spectacular will be held on Friday 23 March at 600pm, Saturday 24 March at 600pm and Sunday 25 March at 500pm at St. Agatha's Auditorium in Rabat.
Tickets may be purchased now from www.ticketline.com.mt.
Dancing Through the Seasons is a performance brought to you by the students and faculty of the Academy of Dance Arts.
Dancing Through the Seasons will bring to the audience a dance spectacular full of colour and beautiful costumes as the audience will be transported from one season to the next. The dances are all themed around the four seasons of the year and students will be performing to the music which will inspire you through the beautiful sights and sounds of spring as life begins to wake up again, the warmth of summer and the lazy times at the beach, the orange and brown colours of autumn as nature starts to transform itself and prepare for the colder months and, finally, winter with the cold and wet months.
The show is an important event on the school calendar to which we look forward with excitement.
Through the show all our students are given the opportunity to perform on stage in front of an audience. This is a very important part of their overall development as it helps them build their self-confidence and improve their performance skills. Students also learn what it entails to produce a show – from the choreographies, to the rehearsals, the costumes, the light and sound settings, the waiting times, and all the work going on back stage. They also learn an important value which they will carry with them throughout all their lives – that of working hard as a team to achieve a goal.
We would like to thank the sponsors of this show: VJ Salomone, Mizzi Motors, TBWA/ANG and Raesch.


A layer of artificial fog shrouded Whittier College students as they filed into the block party entitled MET Decent put on by the Metaphonian Society on Friday, April 1. Hosted in the Upper Quad, the event was lit — both figuratively and literally, with laser lights illuminating the dance floor. Purple miniature frisbees were flung through the night sky, dangerous pieces of plastic adding to the excitement of the party atmosphere. Featuring Power 106 and REM DJ's Feld Scar and Dystro, MET Decent offered a decent environment for students (and our favorite lunch lady) to have a good time.
Some individuals were concerned about the publicizing of the event leading up to Friday. "I feel like there wasn't enough time. I didn't even know [MET Decent] was happening until the night of," sophomore Raymond Enriquez said. Efforts to raise awareness of the block party by the Metaphonian Society had occurred throughout the week, both through social media and on-campus outlets. While turn-out appeared a little lower than expected by students, once at the block party, the energy won out for the attendees.
However, dancing was only one of the many options students could choose to partake in at MET Decent. A busy photo-booth situated on the outskirts of the event allowed groups to document their night together. A plethora of food options were available, with pizza and cotton candy offered at two separate stands for students to snack on after taking their pictures. The Mets also had staff members manning a snow cone station — a cool remedy after sweating it out on the dance floor. Even better still, the block party became something of a quasi-carnival, with face painting, ring toss, skee ball and an inflatable basketball court set up alongside the perimeter.
"I think ring toss and basketball are the best," junior Ariella Greene said. "They're the most engaging and you get to go against people." Students could compete against one another in each of the games for prizes. Blow horns, key chains, candy and miniature frisbees were some of the incentives used to get Whittier College students to test their skills against one another. "The bounce house basketball game was my favorite," senior Omar Macias agreed, having won himself a purple frisbee as a prize. "Nothing worthwhile is ever easy and nothing easy is ever worthwhile," he added sagely.

Колегія Генеральних старшин (Гетьманський уряд Павла Полуботка) — це тимчасовий орган влади створений у липні 1722 року указом російського царя Петра І для управління Гетьманщиною спільно з Першою Малоросійською колегією без обрання гетьманом Павла Полуботка (1722—1724 рр.)

Особливості колегіального управління

Тимчасове управління Гетьманщиною у липні 1722 року покладалось на членів колегії генеральних старшин у складі Павла Полуботка, генерального писаря Семена Савича та генерального судді Івана Чарниша, при чому, спільно з Малоросійською колегією.

Як відомо гетьман Іван Скоропадський помираючи, на початку липня 1722 року, передав усі справи наказному гетьманові Павлу Полуботку.

Універсали, що підписувались в цей час, були колегіальними. Першим ставив свій підпис сам Павло Полуботок, потім — генеральний писар Семен Савич, а також генеральний суддя Іван Чарниш, генеральний осавул Василь Жураківський та на перших порах (у серпні — вересні 1722 р.) лубенський полковник Андрій Маркович. З вересня 1722 року на деяких універсалах стоїть підпис генерального бунчужного Якова Лизогуба.

Склад Гетьманського уряду Павла Полуботка

До його складу входили генеральні писар, суддя, осавул і бунчужний.

Генеральний писар
Генеральний писар Савич Семен (генеральний писар) (? — 1725) продовжував керувати Генеральною військовою канцелярією ще з 1708 року. Він тримав печатку Війська. До обов'язків також входило прийняття грамот і виголошення на Раді старшин актів, грамот та інших документів державної ваги.

Генеральний суддя
Генеральний суддя завідував судочинством. На цій посаді ще з 1715 року працював Чарниш Іван Федорович (? — 1728). В умовах існування Першої малоросійської колегії постійно конфліктував з її бригадиром Степаном Вельяміновим, що прагнув підчинити собі судочинство в Гетьманщині.

Генеральний осавул
В умовах відстуності повноцінного гетьманського уряду працював лише один Генеральний осавул, що стежив за правопорядком у Гетьманщині, наглядав за складом і бойовим забезпеченням Війська, веденням компутів, забезпеченням грошової й натуральної плати козакам, які несли військову службу. З 1710 року цю посаду продовжував обіймати Василь Жураківський (? — 1730)

Генеральний бунчужний
Генеральний бунчужний Яків Лизогуб (1675—1749), що працював в уряді з 1713 року, охороняв бунчук, відав різними військовими справами, іноді за дорученням гетьмана («по зволенію рейментарской власти») міг видавати універсали й мав свою печатку.

Отже завершений колегіальний уряд склали Павло Полуботок та генеральні старшини. Вони фактично правили Гетьманщиною разом з бригадиром Степаном Вельяміновим.

Репресії проти українських старшин

Постійні конфлікти генеральних старшин з Малоросійською колегією та боротьба українців проти утисків з боку російської влади привели до того, що в червні 1723 року почались перші репресії. Починалось все демократично — виклик Павла Полуботка до Санкт-Петербурга.

23 червня 1723 року з'являється імператорський наказ: «Всем ведомо, что с Богдана Хмельницкого до Скоропадского все гетманы явились изменниками, от чего много потерпело государство Русское, особенно Малороссия, и потому надобно при искать в гетманы верного и надежного человека, а пока такой найдется, определено правительство, которому надлежит повиноваться и не докучать насчет гетманского выбора».

Управління Гетьманщиною на час відстуності наказного гетьмана

Керманичі України гетьман Павло Полуботок, Генеральний писар Семен Савич та Генеральний суддя Іван Чорниш залишили свої справи і уряди в Україні Малоросійській колегії та 13 червня виїхали з Глухова до столиці «у санкт-петербурзьку дорогу».

Полуботок, Савич і Чарниш розпорядилися про передачу повноваженнь на час їх відсутності в Україні генеральному осавулу Жураківському і генеральному бунчужному Лизогубу.

Прибувши 3 серпня 1723 року до Петра І вони подали ще одну петицію на вибір нового гетьмана. Це дуже розгнівило імператора, але українці не відступали. З собою вони привезли копії 156 документів, які підтверджували незаконність оголошення Малоросійської колегії та необхідності відновлення гетьманства. Звертались до всіх інстанцій: неодноразово до Сенату, в Колегію іноземних справ, звертались до високих царських вельмож. Та всі ці звертання були марними.

Суд у Петербурзі

Розгніваний наполегливістю українців Петро І наказав у вересні 1723 року судити їх Таємною Канцелярією, звинувачуючи в державній зраді. Почалися допити. Автор «Історії Русів» переповідає про те, що довелось витерпіти українським керманичам: «Особа, що не призналася до вини, мусила витерпіти все те тортурами через три прийоми, або зміни, і різним знаряддям, а наостанку вогняним, себто розпеченою залізною шиною і розтопленою сіркою».

Таким чином, коли Писар Генеральний Савич у тій Тайній Канцелярії запитуваний був самим Государем: «Чи він знає про лихий замір товаришів його і земляків, які душили баранів?», а він відповідав на теє із звичайною тогочасною Малоросійською чемністю: «Не скажу Ваше ці!», то за тії слова, за тую чемність дістав з першого разу доброго поличника, а далі засуджений був на тортури…"

10 листопада 1723 року п'ятнадцять козацьких старшин на чолі з наказним гетьманом були заточені в колодки і відправлені до Петропавлівської фортеці. Залишились на волі тільки їх служники і, зокрема, семеро Семена Савича.

Це був безпрецедентний крок російського імператора, — говорить відомий український історик Микола Аркас. — Були ув'язнені перші політичні в'язні в новій російській столиці. Павло Полуботок не витерпівши страждань, в першу чергу моральних, помер 18 (за новим стилем 29) грудня 1723 року. Після цього тортури припинились.

Імператор, який особисто допитував наказного гетьмана пережив його лише на 40 днів. Після смерті Петра І (28 січня 1725 р.) на чолі Російської держави стає його дружина імператриця Катерина І Олексіївна (1725—1727).
Одним із перших своїх наказів, 4 лютого 1725 року, вона звільняє українських арештантів, що залишились в живих, з в'язниці. Але дозволяє жити лише в Санкт-Петербурзі.

The Mystery of Quantum Physics (Part 1)
The double slit experimental setup.
In 1803 an English scientist named Thomas Young did a remarkable experiment. Young, who had many interests and was also involved in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphics, was exploring the nature of light. His experiment would start a revolution in physics that would eventually overturn the rules of motion established by Isaac Newton a century before. It would also expose one of the great mysteries of the universe: quantum weirdness.
Indeed, the enigma represented by quantum physics is truly a profound mystery. If someone were to capture an actual sea serpent or stumble across a living dinosaur, it would be the focus of press coverage for months. The discovery would be the topic of conversation at every water cooler in every office around the world. Yet, as startling as such a find would be, neither would change our world view all that much. We know that both large marine reptiles and dinosaurs existed in the distant past. We might be amazed that somehow these creatures managed to survive so long on Earth without being detected by science, but their discovery would not change the theory of evolution to any great degree.
The mystery at the heart of quantum physics, however, strikes directly at our perception of whether the universe and everything in it, including ourselves, is real. Also, while the idea of living sea serpents or dinosaurs is highly speculative and unlikely, the theory of quantum physics is one of the most "battle tested" in science. There is little doubt that, despite its bizarre features, it is accurate. As physicist Daniel M. Greenberger put it, "Einstein said that if quantum mechanics were correct then the world would be crazy. Einstein was right - the world is crazy."

The Double Slit Experiment
The best place to start talking about quantum physics is with Young's 1803 experiment. At the time, scientists were trying to figure out if light consisted of some kind of particle or if it was a wave traveling through some unknown medium (like waves moving through water). Young's experiment used a tiny source of light and a screen. In between these two objects he added a barrier with two narrow, vertical, parallel slits.
Young knew that if light was just a stream of tiny particles it should just pass through each of the slits and pile up on the screen behind the holes.
This was, in fact, exactly what occured if he covered one slit and left the other one open. A vertical sliver of light showed up on the screen behind the hole. Young might have expected to see two slivers of light when he uncovered the other slit, but this is not what happened.
Instead the screen was covered with a series of vertical bands of light and dark that ran across most of the screen. Young realized what this meant: The light was traveling like a wave and passing through both slits. After passing through the slits, the waves spread out in a semi-circular pattern so that they ran into each other. As they did, where the two wave tops met they would re-enforce each other and where a wave trough and top met, they would cancel out. The result was an alternating series of light and dark bands. Scientists call this an interference pattern as it is the result of two waves interfering with each other.
Young's sketch of his experiment showing the light waves emerging from slit A & B, and interfering to create lines on the screen at the bottom at C, D, E and F.
So light was indeed a wave. Over the years, though, scientists looked for the medium that the waves traveled on (which they referred to as the ether) but couldn't find it. What's more, there also seemed to be evidence piling up that light did travel as a kind of particle (which would later be given the name photon). Eventually, it was decided that photons had a duel nature, acting as both a wave and a particle. Despite this, physicists still wondered what would happen if you sent the photons through the double slit experiment one at a time.
Eventually a light source was invented that would release only one photon at a time and Young's double slit experiment was tried again. Instead of a screen, however, photographic paper was used because a single photon was too dim to be seen on a screen, but after millions of them had passed through the slits (one at a time) any pattern would be visible on the film when it was developed.
When the photograph was developed it showed the same interference pattern as before. Scientists were forced to conclude that each individual photon traveled as a wave, passed through both slits at the same time and interfered with itself, only appearing as a particle at a particular position when it finally hit the photographic paper. This seemed crazy.
Scientists decided to see what would happen if they put a photon detector next to one of the slits to see which path the photon actually took. They indeed managed to do that, but when they did, the interference pattern disappeared and only two slivers of light (one behind each hole) appeared on the screen. The photons seemed to "know" that they were being watched and changed their behaviors from that of a wave to that of a particle!
Scientists then decided to put the photon detector on the far side of the screen from the light source so the photon would not be observed until after it had gone through the slit. The result was the same, however. The photon seemed to "know" there would be a detector on the opposite side of the screen before it got there and then changed to particle mode before going through the slits.
An animation that demonstrates the double slit experiment. Note that while this clip was included in the questionable documentary What the Bleep Do We Know?, it does accurately demonstrate this particular experiment.
Finally a scientist named John Wheeler proposed an experiment where the screen could be pulled away at the last moment before the photons hit to be replaced by a set of optical detectors that would determine from which slit the photon had come from. The decision about whether or not to move the screen would not be made until after the photon passed through the slit. At the time Wheeler proposed the experiment, it was technically impossible to do. A few years later, however, the experiment was actually tried. If the screen was in position the photon acted as part of an interference pattern, but if the screen moved at the last moment so the "which slit" information was captured, that photon did not participate in the interference pattern. The photon seemed to know how to behave when it reached the slit even though the decision about whether the screen would be in place had not yet been made. It seemed that either the photon could predict the future, or a decision about how to place the screen could change the past.
It looked like to scientists that in quantum theory causality seemed to take a hike. Things happening in the present seemed to alter the past. And that was just the tip of quantum weirdness.
If this stuff seems to bother you , don't worry. It bothered a lot of people, including Albert Einstein.
Tonight, go out and look at the stars. If it is winter (in the northern hemisphere) you should be able to see the constellation Orion, the Hunter. It's easy to pick out because of the three stars in a straight line that make up Orion's belt. Look at the middle star. It's a blue-white supergiant named Alnilam 1300, light years away. When you look at the star, what happens? Most books will tell you that one-thousand-three hundred years ago - the Early Middle Ages in Europe - an excited electron on a hydrogen atom on the outer fringes of the star released a particle of energy: a photon.
The photon raced away from Alnilam in the direction of Earth at the speed of light, about 186,000 miles per second. Though photons aren't greatly affected by gravity, the planets, stars and other celestial objects it passed pulled on it tiny amounts giving it unique path through the emptiness of space. As it approached Earth, it dodged interactions with the molecules of the atmosphere. You looked up at the sky at just the right time to catch it. The photon (along with many others) stimulated the retina in the back of your eye, sending a signal to your brain and in your mind you saw the starlight. A rather amazing course of events; except that according to quantum theory, that is not what happened. Not at all.

Nobody really knows what is actually happening at the quantum level. There are, however, several interpretations of the quantum theory that are designed to help us think about it in terms that our minds might understand. The best known one is called the Copenhagen Interpretation because it was authored mostly by the physicist Neils Bohr who lived in Copenhagen. For years, scientists and engineers have used Copenhagen as the standard way of looking at the quantum world. The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum theory sees your visualization of Alnilam this way:
About 1300 years ago a photon didn't leave the hydrogen atom, but a wave of probability. The wave represented not the probability of where the photon was, but where it might be found if it was observed. The wave moved outward at the speed of light not in the direction of Earth, but as a sphere inflating at the speed of light. The planets, stars and other objects near it affected the probability of where the photon might appear, but there was still a chance it could show up anywhere in the expanding sphere.
The wave/sphere expanded for 1300 years until it was two-thousandsix-hundred light years across - Some 15,250,809 billion miles wide. The wave front swept through Earth's atmosphere and just at the moment you focused your eye upon Alnilam and the wave front entangled with the cells on your retina. Then somewhere, between your retina entangling with the wave and your mind seeing the star, it happened.
Instantly across the expanse of 2,600 light years the probability wave collapsed and the photon came into being, interacting with the retina of your eye. It could have been that if you hadn't looked up at just the right moment that the photon could have been collapsed by some alien observer a few seconds later on a planet a thousand light years away on the other side of Alnilam. Your observation on Earth, however, forever removed that possibility.
When you observed that photon a unique history was created for it. The path that it traveled from that hydrogen atom at Alnilam to your eye was created.
Albert Einstein helped birth Quantum Theory but was very bothered by it.
It might seem that the instantaneous collapse of anything 2600 light years wide would be impossible as it would exceed the speed of light. However, this is just one of several examples where quantum theory seems to defy the cosmic speed limit. This was also something that bothered Einstein deeply.
Einstein's Two Children
It has been said that in the beginning of the 20th century Einstein birthed two children - two great physics theories. It is said that he loved one child (Relativity) and hated the other (Quantum Physics).
What upset him about quantum physics? First it was non-deterministic. If you were to set up a gun and fire it at a target it would be very easy to predict the course of the bullet if you knew the speed and direction that it was going when it left the barrel. Not so with a photon. As our example with the light wave traveling from a distant star showed, the photon moves as a probability wave. The photon could show up anywhere along the course of the wave, though the chances are better in some places than others. This caused Einstein to quip that he didn't think "God plays dice with the Universe."
This second thing that bothered Einstein was the idea that, according to Copenhagen, until an object was observed, it only exists as a probability wave. For a photon this might not seem like a big deal. It's a really, very, very small thing. However, not only do photons obey the rules of quantum physics, so do electrons, protons, atoms, and molecules. They are all only waves until they are observed and a the two slit experiment has been done with objects as large as fullerene molecules which consist of 60 carbon atoms each.
In the end when you think about it, our whole world, including ourselves, is just made up of atoms and molecules. Does that mean that we are just a big probability waves?
Schr�dinger had doubts about the theory that he helped create and came up with the famous cat thought experiment to show the theory was incomplete.
The idea that objects in our world do not exist independent of observation caused Einstein to quip, "I prefer to think the moon still exists even when I'm not looking at it."
Schr�dinger's Cat
Einstein wasn't the only founder of quantum theory that had doubts about it. Edwin Schr�dinger came up with one of the key equations for predicting how a quantum system will change over time. It won him the Nobel prize in 1933. Despite this, he was bothered by some of quantum physics implications and came up with an example to demonstrate their absurdness.
Schr�dinger's thought experiment involved placing a cat in a sealed box (note: this was only an example, he never meant for somebody to try this with a real cat). Into the box with the cat would go a small piece of "diabolical" machinery consisting of radioactive material, a geiger counter and a vial. The radioactive material was sized so that over the course of an hour there would be a 50 percent chance of it decaying and giving off a particle that would set off the counter. The counter was also hooked up so if it detected the particle it would release a hammer designed to smash the vial filled with deadly hydrogen cyanide gas.
At the end of an hour there would be a fifty/fifty percent chance you would open the box and find the cat dead or alive. What state is the cat in before the box is opened, however? Because the decay of an atom is a quantum event, the Copenhagen Interpretation suggests that until it is observed the atom (as a probability wave function) is in superposition - both states simultaneously. This would seem to mean the deadly mechanism and the cat are also in superposition with the cat both alive and dead. Schr�dinger found this a ridiculous idea and used it to try and show the problems that quantum theory was either wrong or incomplete.
Another thing that bothered early physicists working with quantum theory was the idea of an observer collapsing the wave function. What qualifies as an observer? The geiger counter? The cat? A conscious human experimenter?
Consciousness seems to some people to be connected in some strange way with quantum physics. For many physicists, however, this is an anathema. Since Copernicus first moved the Earth from the center of the solar system to just one of a number of planets orbiting the sun, man's place in the cosmos has continually shrunk until our planet is just a tiny speck in a vast, endless universe. If quantum effects are directly connected with consciousness, it would seem to turn 500 years of science on its head. Something physicists are loath to do.

Are there other interpretations of the theory that resolve these problems? Yes, and we will discuss them in the next segment. Each alternative interpretation, however, comes with a price and none can completely escape quantum weirdness.

Everyone desires good health and fitness but like every good thing in life, not everyone achieves optimum health and fitness because not everyone knows what it takes or is ready to do whatever it takes.
Staying fit and healthy does not happen by its self. If that is something you desire, you have to make it happen. Some people have come to realize that and so they adopt a lifestyle that helps them stay healthy and fit.
If you have been wondering how to keep your waistline in check or why you suddenly breathe heavily when you lift a little weight, go for a short walk or climb a few stairs, you will get the answer here and what you need to do to stay fit and healthy like people who are.
So what are the top 3 habits of people who stay fit and healthy and how can you imbibe them?
This is one of the common habits of people who maintain good health and fitness. It's easy for most of us to come up with excuses why we cannot or do not exercise on a daily basis.
But like achieving success in every other area in life, you can have success or you can have your excuses. There is no middle ground and you certainly can't have the two.
Making a habit of exercising is not something you can not do if you are determined to make it happen. It's all about priority. If you consider it important enough to incorporate into your daily routine you will find time for it. And you should if you are serious about maintaining good health and staying fit.
Getting at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of intense exercise per week is recommended by the American College of Sports Medicine, who also say that alternating aerobic and resistance exercises is important for keeping the whole body fit.
This is probably the most important habit of all for maintaining a healthy body and fitness. As you may already know not all foods are created equal. Some foods we eat are actually harmful to our bodies but we keep consuming them because of habit or culture and tradition. It's what we know to eat and so we do not bother to find out its consequences on our bodies.
Healthy people watch what they eat. They have come to understand through professional advice or personal research and information the right foods for their bodies to stay healthy and strong.
This is another vital habit to staying healthy and fit. You may be wondering how fitness is connected to sleep. Cheri Mah, a sleep medicine researcher at Stanford University and the University of California, San Francisco was asked what was more important to fitness between sleep and exercise, and she said it was sleep.
Sleeping is just as crucial to a healthy lifestyle as training or exercise. The lack of sleep can make it difficult for the body to build muscle.
So apart from developing the habit of exercising every day, and eating a healthy diet, you need to get at least six hours of sleep on a daily basis to keep yourself in top shape both physically and mentally.
So get started today if you haven't been doing any of these top 3 habits of healthy living and staying fit.

Mammoet ensures resumption of loading for ammonia ships
Published by David Rowlands, Editor
World Fertilizer, Wednesday, 09 May 2018 10:30
Mammoet – an engineered heavy lifting and transport company – has announced that its rapid response ensured the safety and ongoing operation of ammonia ship loading in the Julianakanaal for OCI Nitrogen.
The company's local team in Geleen, the Netherlands, safely lifted a 125 t ship barrier, enabling access and essential barrier repairs to be completed in less than 48 hours.
OCI Nitrogen supplies ammonia for the global market from its base in the Netherlands. The ship barrier is permanently in place to provide a stable connection with transport ships as they load and unload their valuable cargoes. The barrier moves up and down with the changing waterline through the use of four winches, maintaining a constant and secure link, and preventing any leakage into the surrounding land or water. In mid-March 2018, a fault developed in one of the winches and the barrier stopped moving.
Normally, the barrier would be in use on a daily basis, servicing the vessels that are moving in and out of the port to refill and supply ammonia to global customers. However, it was not possible to fill the ships safely without the use of the barrier, so the winch needed to be fixed quickly in order to minimise the amount of lost revenue caused by the fault.
Verhoef Access Technology was employed to fix the winch, but Mammoet's experience and specialised equipment was required to lift the barrier safely and enable access to the faulty part.
Patric de Konink, Plant Manager, OCI Nitrogen, said: "We were concerned about the time needed to complete such a project.
"The barrier was hanging at an angle and there were access issues. Originally, we thought that the barrier would have to be lifted using water-based cranes. But, in just two days, Mammoet had put together a complete lifting plan for a land-based lift."
The team encountered a problem when it was discovered that the proposed lifting site was unstable. However, access to Mammoet's fleet allowed a different to crane to be used, allowing the job to be completed from a different position. The winch was fixed and the barrier was fully operational in just 48 hours. The Mammoet team led the project, coordinating the work with OCI's operational team, Verhoef engineers, and service and maintenance suppliers, Sitech.
Cees de Bont, Director Region South, Mammoet Netherlands, said: "The safety of the workers and the protection of the barrier were the most important considerations in this project.
"We had a dedicated project manager based on-site at all times, along with a team of nine Mammoet professionals and four cranes. A fast and efficient lift was crucial to getting this barrier working again, but it was essential not to compromise the safety of any of the colleagues or impact the surrounding ships and machinery."
De Konink added: "Truly, the Mammoet team made a nearly impossible problem look easy.
"This was a 125 t structure hanging in a vulnerable position with no easy access opportunities, but in just four days it was fixed and fully operational."

Q: Inequalities word problem An analytical lab costs $3.50$ dollars to run a sample and has $8430$ dollars per week for overhead. If it charges $32.75$ dollars a sample, what is the minimum amount of samples run to reach a profit?
My solution:
$3.50x+8430=32.75x$
$32.75x-3.5x=8430$
$x=288.2$
The lab must run at least 289 samples.
Is this the standard approach or would there be a better way to solve this problem?

A: Your approach is great! Just one minor notation thing: If I were solving this, I would use an inequality instead of an equation.
$$32.75x - 3.50x - 8430 > 0 $$
$$x > 288.205...$$
This makes it a little easier for others reading your work to understand what you're solving for :)

Congress' anti-Modi politics continues its anti-Tilak/Aurobindo legacy – VII
by Radha Rajan on 30 Dec 2013 7 Comments
Gujarat Riots 2002 and Bihar Riots 1946-47 – Gandhi as Teesta Setalvad: A five member team headed by Justice Tewatia comprising media professionals, Supreme Court advocates and reputed academicians travelled to Gujarat in the wake of the Gujarat riots in 2002 and compiled their findings in a report. According to this report –
On the 22nd of February, this year, the Sabarmati express started from Faizabad 225 minutes late. On that fateful day, 2300 pilgrims were traveling by the train. Most of them were returning from Ayodhya after the Purna Ahuti yagna. Most of the Muslim passengers got down at Dahod railway station and the rest of them at Godhra and it appears that when the train was torched there were no Muslim passengers in the train except those who were to stop the train by pulling the chain as part of the conspiracy to burn the pilgrims alive.
At 7.47 Hrs the train started to move from Godhra station but stopped for a few moments as some passengers could not board the train. It finally left the station but came to a halt about 700 metres away from the station as someone had pulled the chain. The vacuum pipe between coaches S6 and S7 was cut thereby preventing any further movement of the train. Miscreants threw stones and bricks at the train. As soon as the train left the Godhra station, the stoning intensified after the train stopped about 700 metres away at a place called Falia.
The passengers of the coaches S5, S6 and S7 particularly were the main targets. The passengers reportedly shut the doors and windows to protect themselves. Burning missiles and acid bulbs were thrown at and into the coaches and one such missile landed in coach S7. The fire spread but was controlled by the passengers. The attack continued and more burning missiles were thrown into coach S6. Soon S6 caught fire and within minutes it was in flames. Passengers who managed to get out of the burning compartment were attacked with sharp weapons. Some of them got out through the windows and took shelter below the coach.
After some time, between 20 and 40 minutes, fire engines arrived at the scene and took about half an hour to extinguish the fire. Inside the coach 58 charred bodies were found. They included 26 women and 12 children. Those who had seen the charred bodies, shiver even weeks after the incident while recalling the gory scene. Even a cursory look at the photograph of the charred bodies is a chilling experience. Forty-three injured persons were rushed to the civil hospital at Godhra with different degrees of burns. The train left Godhra at about 12.30 Hrs minus coach S6. Fifty-eight dead and 43 injured.
Fifty-eight Hindu pilgrims including 26 women and 12 children were charred beyond recognition in the fire set off by Islamic terrorists. For Hindus it matters little if the terrorists were Indian or Pakistani. Gujarat's Hindus reacted with fury and in the first three days after the terror attack went on the rampage and Gujarat was in the grip of communal riots. There have been several communal riots in Gujarat prior to 2002, big and small. The riots of 1946, 1969, 1985, 1992, 1995 and 2002 were major riots. The 1969 riots, as those in 1946, were triggered by terror attack on the day of asad sud or the day of the rath yatra of Bhagwan Jagannath.
In 2002, Gujarat Chief Minister asked the central government to send in the army to quell the riots and the army began its work by 11AM on the 1st of March – in less than 72 hours. During all prior riots in Gujarat, the state was ruled by the Congress party and the world then did not treat Gujarat or its Chief Ministers as the world's most hated political untouchables. But Gujarat of 2002 and RSS-pracharak-turned-Chief Minister Narendra Modi became the White Christian world's new anti-Christ. Hindu nationalism, for America and Europe was the new anti-Christ.
All the world including Hindu political mercenaries in the country and Generic Church supported and funded NGO industry collectively turned against Modi as one, not because the Gujarat riots of 2002 were any worse than previous riots in the state; but this time when Hindus reacted with fury as they have always done at least as we now know it from 1946 onwards, the state was ruled by the BJP and the coalition government in Delhi was led by the BJP and the BJP was perceived as a Hindu political party.
The same argument was thrown by Gandhi at the Bihar government in 1946. How Gandhi reacted to Morarji Desai's handling of the Ahmedabad riots in July 1946 and to the Bihar riots that started in August 1947 and continued unabated till March 1948, is the key to understanding why the three Yadavs, the then Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee and Home Minister LK Advani, and Hindu political mercenaries in the Congress, blame Narendra Modi for the riots.
Morarji Desai, the then Minister for Revenue and Home in the Government of Bombay, was forced to call in the army and the police to quell the riots. Gandhi reacted sharply to Morarji Desai summoning the army into Ahmedabad and using the police to subdue the rioters. Launching a furious diatribe against Morarji Desai who went to meet Gandhi in Pune before going to Ahmedabad, Gandhi asked Desai to withdraw the military; and in his speech at the prayer meeting the same day, in his typical manner of asking everyone else to die but not choosing to die himself, Gandhi told the people gathered at the meeting that Morarji Desai "must go to meet the flames under the sole protection of God, not that of the police and the military. If need be he must perish in the flames in the attempt to quell them as the late Mr. Ganesh Shankar Vidyarthi had done". (CWMG Vol. 91 pp 228-29)
In the course of the prayer meeting Gandhi also observed,
If you find it risky to withdraw the military immediately let them do policing. They may not carry rifles and if they carry bayonets these should be used sparingly. They have been trained to act like monkeys, under your administration they should cease to be monkeys and become human beings.
There are ways even of fighting. If we must fight, why should we seek the help of the police and the military? The government too should clearly say that the military, whilst it is in India will only be used for the work of sanitation, for cultivating unused land and the like.
Morarji Desai was damned because he called the military; Modi was damned because he did not call the army on time, as alleged (falsely) by his detractors. But one individual mustered the courage to confront Gandhi frontally on Gandhi's prescription to Morarji Desai for dealing with the Ahmedabad riots.
Your guidance and example can inspire many like me with courage and self-confidence. Once you have shown the way, the local workers will be able to follow it whenever occasion demands it. I feel that unless you set an example in action, your writings and utterances will not be of any use to the ordinary people and even Congressmen, in organizing non-violent protection of society.
Gandhi: I like the suggestion mentioned above. The correspondent has rightly said that under these circumstances, I should act myself whether others join me or not. It will be disgraceful on my part to sit at home and tell others to go and lay down their lives. Such a thing cannot be an indication of non-violence. I have never had the chance to test my non-violence in the face of communal riots. It might be argued that it was my cowardice which prevented me from seeking such a chance. (Panchgani July 25, 1946, CWMG Vol. 91, pp 348-49)
But Gandhi did not go to Ahmedabad in July 1946 and he did not go to Bengal when the Muslim League let loose a reign of terror against the Hindus in response to Jinnah's call for Direct Action. Just as he fobbed off the correspondent in Ahmedabad who asked Gandhi why he did not set an example in action, Gandhi fobbed off a pointed invitation to go to Bengal and undertake a fast unto death to quell the riots, with the excuse that his inner voice had not issued the command yet. The Mahatma's inner voice spoke to him only in the last week of October and Gandhi went to Bengal three months after the riots began in August, three months of rape, plunder, loot, force-feeding beef to Hindus and religious conversion at the point of the sword.
In Bengal Gandhi was forced to admit that his ahimsa was not working and despite his prolonged stay in Bengal lasting four months between October 1946 to the beginning of March 1948, and despite walking from village to village with his tales of non-violence, Gandhi could not douse the fires of communal violence. Gandhi therefore turned his attention to Bihar.
Hindus of Bihar reacted spontaneously and violently to the Great Calcutta killings when on a single day over 5000 Hindus were killed, among whom were hundreds of Biharis who had migrated to Calcutta in search of work. The rage of Bihar's Hindus exploded with unforeseen fury and soon Bihar too was raging in the fire of communal violence.
The Muslim League government in Bengal was furious with Gandhi for walking from one riot-torn village to another while Bihar under Congress rule was extracting revenge for events in Calcutta and other cities and villages of Bengal. The Muslim League wanted Gandhi out of Bengal.
Your letter is hysterical. I would like you to tell me how I can serve the Muslims better by going to Bihar. Whilst I do not endorse your remark that the atrocities committed by the Hindus in Bihar have no parallel in history, I am free to admit that they were in magnitude much greater than in Noakhali. I would urge you as President of the Monghyr District Muslim League to confine yourself to proven facts which, I am sorry to say, you have not done. (Letter to President Monghyr District Muslim League, January 25, 1947, CWMG Vol. 93, page 321)
Congress stalwarts of the time were against Gandhi fishing in the troubled waters of a communally charged Bengal fearing it could provoke the Muslim League government to unleash more violence against the Hindus. They communicated their resentment to GD Birla hoping Birla could make Gandhi see reason. But Gandhi was adamant about proving the success of his non-violence and while he conceded that what he was doing in Bengal (including his sinful experiments in brahmacharya) was not in the name of the Congress, and that he will not associate the Congress in his work, he would not leave Bengal because "he was determined to emerge successful from this ordeal".
Gandhi assured the Muslim League that he could control the Congress government in Bihar sitting in Bengal and that he did not have to go to Bihar to end the riots. Gandhi unleashed his tried and tested weapon of coercion against Bihar:
And since I claim to have better appreciation than you seem to have shown of what Bihari Hindus should do, I cannot rest till I have done some measure of penance. Predominantly for reasons of health, I had put myself on the lowest diet possible soon after my reaching Calcutta. That diet now continues as a penance after the knowledge of the Bihar tragedy. The low diet will become a fast unto death, if the erring Biharis have not turned over a new leaf. There is no danger of Bihar mistaking my act for anything other than pure penance as a matter of sacred duty. (To Bihar, Sodepur, November 6, 1946, CWMG Vol. 92, page 452)
Proving Gandhi to be terribly wrong about his self-proclaimed control over the Bihar government and as if to prove that Bihar's Hindus were not going to listen to any argument from any Congress leader to give up their revenge attacks, communal riots in Bihar continued to rage. Finally in a move to placate Bengal's Muslim League government Gandhi asked Srikrishna Sinha, Prime Minister of Bihar to send him official reports from Bihar on the prevailing situation.
In 1947 Muslims constituted 14% of Bihar's total population and that was no "very small minority" as Gandhi put it, and his fear that the retaliatory violence by Bihar Hindus against the Muslims of the province would "sour" the Muslims in the rest of India has been Indian polity's intellectual refrain till today to exert pressure on Hindus and stopping them by use of state force if necessary, from responding effectively to continuing Muslim violence and jihad against Hindus.
Two telegrams from Patna reprove me on my "threatened" fast. "Threatened" is the word used in one of the wires. My proposed fast is not meant to coerce anyone; it is meant to quicken the dead conscience into life. Those who act from fear harm themselves and the cause they profess to serve. Surely, it is as plain as A. B. C. that the action of the Biharis in injuring the very small minority of Muslims in Bihar must postpone the day of India's independence and ultimately sour Muslims all over India unless Bihar repents her folly of senseless and cowardly violence. Rashtrapati Acharya Kripalani, whom every Bihari knows for his sterling services, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Dr. Rajendra Prasad and now Maulana Abul Kalam Azad and Shri Jayaprakash Narayan are now in Bihar and expect to show fair Bihar that their terrible ill-treatment of the Muslims is communalism of the worst type and is calculated to defeat the growing nationalism of Bihar. I therefore warn everyone from abusing my contemplated fast which is in no way intended to deflect anyone from what he believes is the course of duty for him. (Statement to the press, Chaumuhani, November 9, 1946, The Hindu 11-11-1946, CWMG, Vol. 93, page 16)
And there is a lesson here for Modi's admirers and adversaries. In spite of the fact that almost all Congress leaders except Sardar Patel were camping in Bihar to deal with the riots – Rajendra Prasad, Nehru, Govind Vallabh Pant and Rafiq Ahmed Kidwai, not one of them and not Srikrishna Sinha or Patel, not one of them sends any report to Gandhi and they refuse to react to Gandhi's suggestions and objections. Gandhi's frustration at being ignored is obvious:
I wrote a letter to you but have not received a reply. Possibly it was lost. It does happen to some of my letters. I have received a copy of the Bihar Provincial Muslim League's report. You too must have received a copy. I am therefore not sending it to you. It is a terrible thing if even half of what is stated were true. It even mentions that I should ask the Bihar Ministry for a full clarification of the massacre for which they were responsible. And if one has been already issued, I may be sent a copy. I should like to take you even further than that. I read in some newspaper that the Bihar Ministry does not propose to hold any inquiry. I was sorry to note it. I want the ministries of both the provinces to hold an impartial inquiry by a joint committee to probe the incidents in both the provinces. Even if Bengal does not co-operate, it is the Bihar Ministry's duty to hold such an enquiry. It will be good if you can also let me know the true condition at present. What is the truth in the report that many Muslims have left Bihar and many are still leaving? There is also a complaint that representatives of the Muslim League are not even allowed to visit the Muslim refugee camps set up by the Bihar Government. I am sending a copy of this to Rajendra Babu. (Letter to Srikrishna Sinha, Srirampur, December 21, 1946)
It is bad that the enquiry commission has not yet been appointed. I think that it should be appointed immediately. Many letters of complaint are coming in. Only the commission can answer these letters. (CWMG Vol. 93, page 270)
I was to get a note on Bihar. I have not received it, nor has a single well-informed person from Bihar come to me. It does not matter if someone cannot come but the note must come. What happened about the Commission? (Letter to Srikrishna Sinha, January 13, 1947, CWMG vol. 93, page 275)
It was some gentleman from Bihar who gave me the information. I did not note down his name. Is it not a fact that you, the Governor and the Viceroy are against the appointment of a Commission and that this is sufficient to stop the Chief Minister from appointing one? In spite of all this, I am strongly of opinion that if no commission is appointed, the League's report will be accepted as true. I alone know what pressure is being put on me. (Letter to Vallabhbhai Patel, January 14, 1947, CWMG Vol. 93, pp 276-77)
To which accusation Sardar Patel replied not very politely:
Who told you I have a hand in the non-appointment of a Commission of Inquiry in Bihar? I do hold the opinion that there is no gain but only harm if the Commission is appointed. If in spite of it the Commission is appointed, how can I prevent it? The Bihar Governor is behind the non-appointment of the Commission. The Viceroy too does not want it. (CWMG Vol. 93, page 369)
In due course the Prime Minister of the Bihar government, Srikrishna Sinha announced a one-man Inquiry Commission of Justice Reuben of the Patna High Court. The promised Commission of Inquiry was never constituted and on October 30, 1947, the Bihar cabinet dropped the idea altogether.
Modi like Sardar Patel in 1947 has thus far stood firm against the onslaught of pressure applied on him by his enemies inside and outside the country. Hindus have always dealt decisively with Islamic terrorism even when jihad had the support of state power as in the case of the Muslim League Government in Bengal. Foreign and domestic political forces arraigned now against Narendra Modi and the RSS like the British government and empire loyalists in 1905 do not want Hindu nationalism to rear its head. While they have no objection to Hindu political mercenaries who can be trusted to implement politics of minority-ism, they will put down with all and every means any move by Hindu nationalists to capture state power.
What the RSS has withstood since 1947 and what Narendra Modi has withstood since 2002 is but a foretaste for what lies in wait for both Modi and the RSS as the country nears the general elections in 2014. It is for Hindu nationalists to revive the political courage and intellectual brilliance of Tilak and Aurobindo and the clear thinking that illuminated Savarkar's abiding conviction that this ancient civilization is the Hindu nation – the only bhumi for sanatana dharma and the dharmi.

Revenge Porn Is Sexual Violence, Not a Byproduct of Millennial Negligence
Rep. Katie Hill answers questions from reporters at the U.S. Capitol following her final speech on the floor of the House of Representatives, October 31, 2019, in Washington, D.C.
Kristen Zaleski,
Former U.S. Representative Katie Hill was the latest victim of a form of sexual abuse that's become increasingly common: revenge porn.
Intimate photos of her were leaked to the media and published, without her consent, for the world to see – a transgression Hill suspects her estranged husband was behind. The photos implicated Hill in a sexual relationship with a congressional staffer, an accusation that potentially put Hill in violation of House ethics rules.
Hill, a 32-year-old freshman representative, ended up resigning her seat on October 27.
Uncompromised, uncompromising news

Yet some of the ensuing coverage, instead of zeroing in on the leaked photographs, centered on blaming Hill for not being careful enough.
"The best way to avoid being a victim of revenge porn is to not take nude selfies and send them to people," political commentator Alice Stewart announced on CNN.
In an article titled "A Word to the Young," New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd implored millennials to do a better job protecting themselves and their reputations online.
"Don't leave yourself vulnerable by giving people the ammunition – or the nudes – to strip you of your dreams," she wrote. "OK, millennials?"
Even House Speaker Nancy Pelosi brought up Hill's "error in judgement" and noted that what you share online "can come back to haunt you."
As someone who studies the effects of sexual violence, I've heard this kind of victim-blaming far too often. To me, "Be careful of the photos you take of yourself" sounds eerily similar to "Don't wear suggestive clothing." Sexual violence happens because of sexual perpetrators. It has nothing to do with the clothing people wear or the photos they take of themselves.
Make no mistake: Revenge porn is a form of sexual violence, with the same motivations, power dynamics and potential for psychological harm at play.
Revenge porn falls under the umbrella of what scholars call "technological forms of sexual violence."
Other examples include "nonconsensual pornography," which specifically refers to photos that are taken for a partner's eyes, only to be eventually disseminated to others; "up-skirting," which involves snapping sexually intrusive photos, often of someone's genitals, without their knowledge; and "sextortion," a form of sexual blackmail that Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos fell prey to in early 2019.
What happened to Hill isn't an outgrowth of millennial culture. The nonconsensual sharing of intimate images and videos has been happening for decades. For example, the first issue of Playboy featured nude images of Marilyn Monroe that Hugh Hefner used without her permission. A sex tape filmed by Pamela Anderson and her then-husband Tommy Lee was famously stolen and leaked in 1995.
But the growing role of digital technology in our everyday lives – and the ever-expanding scope of everyone's digital footprint – has made more people vulnerable to this sort of abuse and exploitation.
One study from 2017 found that 1 in 12 participants reported that they'd had nude images taken of them and posted publicly against their wishes. In Australia, that number is 1 in 10 – a rate that jumps to 1 in 2 for those who are indigenous or report having a disability.
An Australian survey also found that 1 in 3 members of the LGBT community, like Rep. Hill and her alleged partner, report having intimate photos shared without their consent.
It can happen to anyone, at any age. Research from 2017 shows that almost 20% of reported victims are over the age of 50.
Control, Retaliation and Humiliation
Just as domestic violence was once misunderstood and tolerated, many people today fail to grasp how nude photographs can be wielded as weapons of abuse.
Yet the nonconsensual sharing of intimate images is a form of control, retaliation and humiliation, just like any other form of sexual violence.
The Power and Control Wheel is a tool used by domestic violence experts to understand the ways in which domestic violence occurs in everyday interactions. Originally developed in 1993 by activists Ellen Pence and Michael Paymar, it demonstrates the abusive tactics beyond physical violence – such as withholding money, threatening to leave and isolating partners from friends and family – that are used to wield power and control.
At this year's Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues conference, psychologists Asia Eaton, Sofia Noori, Amy Bonomi, Dionne P. Stephens and Tameka L. Gillum explained how technological forms of sexual violence can be found in every category of the Power and Control Wheel. For example, one spoke of the wheel is economic abuse; another is coercion. It's not difficult to see how intimate, private photographs can be wielded by an abusive partner to threaten someone's job.
Abusive partners don't even need nude photos to hurt their signficant others; photos or video footage can be altered via deepfake technology to create convincing and humiliating images.
The lasting psychological effects of having nude photographs of yourself shared online are just starting to emerge. The few studies that have been published show that victims deal with many of the same issues that survivors of rape and sexual harassment grapple with. One published in 2017 found evidence of post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and suicidal thoughts among revenge porn victims. Other studies have shown how being targeted with revenge porn can lead to the development of trust and privacy issues that last a lifetime.
"Ever since those images first came out I barely left my bed," Rep. Hill said during her final speech to the House of Representatives. "I went to the darkest places that a mind can go. I've hidden from the world."
Those words ring all too familiar for victims who have endured sexual violence, both online and offline.
Instead of engaging in a victim blame narrative that accuses millennials of being shortsighted, let's focus on the 1 in 20 Americans who perpetrate this form of abuse that violates privacy, causes psychological harm and ends careers.
