Okay, so I'm very aware that what I'm asking for will probably be seem as controversial to Mike and co.
I of course fully understand and respect why Mike is dead set again having an Off-Topic subforum.
However, I am requesting for something that slightly invokes that rule, albeit while covering material very closely related to DB.
I want subforums dedicated to Dr. Slump and general (not directly DB-related) Akira Toriyama discussion.
I am willing to say that in this case, there should be a rule limiting the extent to which we discuss works that Toriyama-sensei only did character designs for (games like Dragon Quest, Blue Dragon and Chrono Trigger, and so forth).
It would be so much more convenient to have all Toriyama-related discussion under one roof. There's not a lot of other places to talk Dr. Slump in such depth, so I feel it would be appreciated.
Considering some of the archival work we've been doing that is ostensibly in service of still documenting Dragon Ball and how it came to be... we're not necessarily as opposed to it as in many years past, but it would take further coordination alongside some other stuff we're trying to do and now kids you need to be on your absolute best behavior here do you promise?
I'll third this suggestion. I would love a Dr. Slump forum and an "other Toriyama works" forum.
It'd be nice, but I feel like it would be pretty dead. Just a general thread would be great imo.
I think it'd be easier to consolidate Dr. Slump and Non-DB Toriyama into a single subforum, but I like this idea (even though I can't contribute on any level).
I vote for "Non-DB Akira Toriyama Discussion" subforum".
I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I'd be all for it. Though I agree that maybe doing just one 'Non-DB Akira Toriyama Discussion' sub-forum would probably be better than doing one for Dr. Slump and then another one for all the other stuff he's done. It'd certainly make the sub-forum at least a little more active over time too, since it'd house talk about not just Slump, but all his various one-off stuff, Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger, Blue Dragon, what have you.
Mainly it'd make it even easier to get answers to questions about some of those things to, as this forum by and large houses some of the most knowledgeable people in regards to Toriyama's works that you're ever likely to find, so it'd be great for any inquiries to be posted in this proposed new forum rather than searching answers out via Google and hoping someone out there knows and is accurate.
The only "issue" I could see coming up would be the classification of non-DB in regards to the other two Galactic Patrol series entries by Toriyama and Katsura, 'Sachie-chan Good!!' and 'Jiya'. Jaco was always described as the third entry in that series (and was even originally meant to be drawn by Katsura rather than Toriyama himself if I recall correctly), but at the same time, Jaco is definitely in the same world as DB, whereas the other two are never confirmed to be - the only things that really hint at it (though I prefer to think they're in the DB universe myself) are, again, the description of being part of the Galactic Patrol series alongside Jaco, and the fact that the squid-like aliens seen in Jiya seem to be the same race that we see a few of in the Jaco manga, as well as the same race that the Galactic King is. Soooo...it's a tricky one. I guess stuff like that would depend on exactly the question/topic a thread about those was bringing up?

Personally I can see it being in both; it's connected to Dragon Ball, and yet it's so niche I don't think anyone would kick up a fuss if a thread for it popped up in the Non-DB Toriyama board. It's a bit like how discussion on Super, and Super alone, permeates into the In-Universe and General Franchise boards even when they don't talk about DB, DBZ or GT.
Well if there's enough people that have read Dr Slump and other manga or played the games, I don't see why not. The only issue is that a lot of Toriyama's other stuff is hard to get a hold of or simply nonexistent in English so a lot of us might not be familiar with the stuff, though I'd love to be.
Yes,please I will be looking forward to it.

I disagree, you can buy the entire Dr. Slump manga on ComiXology right now.
Gets me thinking, if such a subforum were to be made, a required Sticky should be a "How do I watch/read Dr. Slump?" thread.
Not only that, but Viz's physical Tankobans for Slump were readily available for many years at any given Barnes & Noble or local bookstore for a large chunk of the latter 2000s. So were Sand Land and Cowa! for that matter.
Hardly hiding under a rock by any stretch of the imagination.

Shame we can't say the same about the original anime. I've always wanted to watch that and Kikuche's score, since I thought it was wonderful when it showed up in Dragon Ball.
I freaking love Dr. Slump! It would be wonderful to have a section to discuss the series.
I'd love a Non-DB Akira Toriyama Discussion just to talk about Dragon Quest/Warrior.
I'd be more interested in the Dr Slump part of the forum. I feel like if there was a place here to talk about it, more people would be able to get into the series.
Plus there are other good stuff that people should learn about, like Pink: The Rain Jack Story from 1982, and Ken'nosuke-sama from 1997. Both of which received animated adaption by Toei in 1990. And then there's Cowa! from 1997, and Sand Land from 2000. Both of which were released in English by Viz. Oh, and also Neko Majin from 1999 till 2005 that oddly got its final chapter translated by Viz and nothing else.
A general discussion section for Dr. Slump series/manga would be extremely useful because there isn't really a community that I can think of (Reddit, maybe? I dunno.) that cares about Dr. Slump.
I'd like to talk about Dr. Slump home media releases and try to get the best one out there. The first 27 episodes of Dr. Slump were released on Blu-ray in France but I have no idea if it's actually in high definition or it's a shameless upscale, I'd expect the former because Kazé is generally a solid anime distributor.
Dr. Slump also has a lot in common with Dragon Ball such as the New Dr. Slump FEP which never got a DVD release, the New Dr. Slump where Goku showed up, Dr. Slump episode in Dragon Ball, the special Dr. Slump crossover in Dragon Ball Super, the Dr. Slump hints on DBZ Movie 13, and more.
Harmony Gold also dubbed Dr. Slump so that's another interesting piece of history of Dr. Slump for the English market. And Discotek Media released Dr. Slump: The Movies 1-5 on DVD but the others were never released, sigh.

The deep south of Thailand is an area which has been affected by violence since 2004, yet the concurrent coverage of antenatal care has remained at over 90%. Our study aimed to describe the prevalence of nutrient inadequacy among pregnant women who attended antenatal care clinics in hospitals in the study area and assess factors associated with nutrient inadequacy.
Pregnant women from four participating hospitals located in lower southern Thailand were surveyed during January-December 2008. Nutrient intake was estimated based on information provided by the women on the amount, type and frequency of various foods eaten. Logistic regression was used to assess individual and community factors associated with inadequate nutrient intake, defined as less than two thirds of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA).
The prevalence of carbohydrate, protein, fat, calories, calcium, phosphorus, iron, thiamine, riboflavin, retinol, niacin, vitamin C, folic acid and iodine inadequacy was 86.8%, 59.2%, 78.0%, 83.5%, 55.0%, 29.5%, 45.2%, 85.0%, 19.2%, 3.8%, 43.2%, 0.8%, 0.0% and 0.8%, respectively. Maternal age, education level, gestational age at enrolment and pre-pregnancy body mass index and level of violence in the district were significantly associated with inadequacy of carbohydrate, protein, phosphorus, iron, thiamine and niacin intake.
Nutrient intake inadequacy among pregnant women was common in this area. Increasing levels of violence was associated with nutrient inadequacy in addition to individual factors.
Nutrient intake is important to the well-being of pregnant women and the fetus. Inadequate nutrient intake can lead to maternal anemia, increasing the risk for other maternal morbidities and mortality, fetal growth retardation and low fetal birth weight [1, 2]. Inadequacy of macronutrient and micronutrient intake in pregnant women has been previously reported in developing countries such as Bangladesh, China , Sudan, Nigeria and in developed countries such as the USA . In Thailand, the national prevalence of iron deficiency anemia among pregnant women was 13%  but the prevalence in the southern region was as high as 37.8% . In addition, 55% of women had their daily nutrient intake less than the minimum acceptable levels based on the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) . Inadequacy of micronutrient intake was also noted in a recent study in southern Thailand .
Previous studies have shown that family income, education and pregnancy body mass index (BMI) were associated with nutrient inadequacy [3, 12, 13]. In addition to these demographic and socioeconomic factors, occurrence of violence events stemming from social conflict can cause failure of food supplies and a worsening of health service systems [14, 15]. An association between conflict situations within a community and malnutrition has been demonstrated in 21 countries in sub-Saharan Africa . It is not unlikely then that a conflict situation in a community may influence nutrient inadequacy of the pregnant women who live there.
Narathiwat is located in the lower southern part of Thailand where the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women is higher than 20% and low birth weight is steadily reported at 9%. Importantly, the people living in this area have been besieged by violent conflicts since 2004. However, the local health systems are well-functioning and still being utilized. The proportion of live births delivered in institutions has risen from 78% in 2004 to 86% in 2008. Similarly, the percentage of women having their first antenatal visit before 12 weeks of gestation was 72% in 2004 and this increased to 85% in 2008. Due to the high coverage of early antenatal visits, there is a good opportunity to investigate the inadequacy of nutrient intake among these women with respect to both the magnitude of the problem and its associated factors. This information will be useful for further planning of interventions. Our study thus aimed to describe the daily dietary macronutrient and micronutrient intake regarding the six Thai food groups among pregnant women at the first half of pregnancy and to assess the prevalence of inadequacy of these nutrients and associated factors on individual and community characteristics.
A hospital-based cross-sectional survey was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Medicine, Prince of Songkla University, Songkhla, Thailand (reference no. EC 50/354-012), the Ethics Committee of the Ministry of Public Health (reference no. 9/2008) and the Chief Medical Officers of Narathiwat Provincial Health Offices and the Directors of participating hospitals. All eligible pregnant women were invited to join the study. Written informed consent was obtained from all recruited subjects.
Narathiwat province was purposively selected to be the study setting because the prevalence of maternal anemia and low birth weight are high. In addition, the people living in this area are culturally different from those of people in other regions of the country. Hospitals from four districts, namely Ra-Ngae, Tak Bai, Su-Ngai Padi and Cho-Irong were chosen as the study hospitals. All pregnant women with a gestational age of 12 to 20 weeks, who had lived in Narathiwat province for at least one year prior to the study and had attended their first antenatal visit in one of the study hospitals during January-December 2008, were included in the study. High-risk pregnancies such as severe anemia of less than seven gm/dl, heart disease, AIDS, or any mental problems were criteria for exclusion.
The prevalence of inadequacy of nutrient intake in a previous study varied considerably , so the average prevalence (55%) was considered in this study. In order to estimate this prevalence with 95% confidence and a precision of 5%, a total of 380 pregnant women were needed.
A one-day training workshop was arranged by the investigators to allow the relevant staff of each participating hospital to be acquainted with the study details and data collection procedures. One full-time female research assistant was employed at each hospital to collect the data under regular supervision of the first author.
After receiving a full explanation on the purpose of the study, the women were given a self-administered structured questionnaire to ascertain their individual baseline characteristics. The table of food intake recommended for pregnant women published in an antenatal care handbook provided by the Ministry of Public Health, Thailand was used for guidance of food items required. The six food groups including rice, vegetable, meat, fruit, fat and milk were listed. The units for measuring the amount of each food was recorded as ladles for rice and vegetables, portions for fruit, tablespoons for meat, tea-spoons for fat and glasses for milk. Photographs of the types and amounts of foods were shown to the women to improve estimation of portion size. The subjects were requested to recall their average daily intake for breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper over the previous two weeks for all food groups and the amount eaten using the standard units mentioned above. If the consumed food was not in the list, then that kind of food was converted into an equivalent amount of the same food type. For example, noodles were converted into rice equivalent. Total food intake regarding types, amount and frequency were calculated into weight of macronutrient and micronutrient using the modified Food Nutrient Conversion Table endorsed by the Nutrition Division of the Ministry of Public Health, Thailand .
The two main outcome variables were level of macronutrients, which included carbohydrate, protein, fat and calories, and level of micronutrients, which included minerals (calcium, phosphorus and iron), vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, retinol, niacin, vitamin c, folic acid) and iodine. Inadequacy of macronutrients and micronutrients was defined as having total nutrient intake lower than two-thirds of the RDA.
Individual characteristics obtained from each subject were age, religion, gestational age, occupation, education level, family income, number of family members, pre-pregnancy weight, height and number of live children. Community characteristics in 2008 on population density, average household income and literacy rate were obtained, while number of violent events, number of deaths and number of injuries in 2008 were retrieved from the Violence-related Injury Surveillance database . The level of violence in study communities was determined by a weighted violence score which was retrieved from three parameters of violence, namely the number of violent events, number of injuries and number of deaths from violent events. These three parameters were divided by the mid-interval population to obtain the standardized scores of numbers of events, injured cases and dead cases, respectively. Factor analysis was then run on these three violence-related variables to obtain a weighted violence score for each district, reflecting the level of violence. Women living in the same district thus had the same weighted violence score.
The data were computerized using Epidata 3.1 and analyzed using R software version 2.9.1 (The R Foundation for Statistical Computing 2008, Austria). The total daily intake of macronutrients and micronutrients was described using means and quartiles. Percentage of RDA (the actual quantities of nutrients divided by the RDA levels multiplied by 100) and percentage of inadequacy were computed. Logistic regression models using backward stepwise selection were fit to the data to estimate the effect of individual and community level factors on nutrient intake. The results were shown as odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Statistical significance was considered for p values less than 0.05.
Table 1 shows the community characteristics in each study district in 2008. Ra-Ngae had the highest population while Chi-Irong had the highest population density. Ra-Ngae district had the highest average household income and violence rate compared to the other districts. The districts with a high violence rate (per 100,000 population) also had high injury and death rates. The most common violent events were bomb blasts and shootings.
Of 462 eligible women approached, 400 (86.5%) consented to participate in the study. Individual characteristics of these participants are presented in Table 2. Approximately one-third of participants were aged between 25 and 29 years. Half of them were housewives and had completed secondary school. The majority were Muslim and were in poor economic status with monthly income lower than 156 USD. Underweight (BMI <18.5 kg/m2) was detected in 16.8% of the participants.
Table 3 describes nutrient intake among the participants compared to the Thai RDA. Carbohydrate, protein, fat, calories, calcium, phosphorus, iron, thiamine, riboflavin, retinol, niacin, vitamin C, folic acid and iodine inadequacy was 86.8%, 59.2%, 78.0%, 83.5%, 55.0%, 29.5%, 45.2%, 85.0%, 19.2%, 3.8%, 43.2%, 0.8%, 0.0% and 0.8% respectively. The RDAs for all measured macronutrients, minerals and thiamine were in the fourth quartile of participant's nutrient intakes. The RDAs for retinol, vitamin C, folic acid and iodine were in the first quartile. If two-thirds of the RDA is considered as inadequate, the prevalence of inadequate macronutrient intake was over 59%.
Due to the low prevalence of folic acid, vitamin C, iodine, retinol and riboflavin intake inadequacy in our sample demonstrated, these variables were excluded from the analysis of micronutrients. Tables 4 and 5 present the final model of logistic regression predicting inadequacy of macronutrients and micronutrients, respectively. Maternal age, educational level, gestational age at enrolment, pre-pregnancy BMI and level of violence were associated with nutrient inadequacies.
Women aged less than 20 years were at a lowest risk of macronutrient and micronutrient inadequacy compared to those aged 20-34 years. Women with a primary school education were at a high risk for inadequacy of most nutrients. Gestational age was consistently associated with most nutrient inadequacies. If gestational age was more than 14 weeks, the risk of having macronutrient and micronutrient inadequacy was lower. Pre-pregnancy BMI was associated with only carbohydrate inadequacy. Women with low pre-pregnancy BMI had a lower risk of inadequacy compared to those with normal BMI. Level of violence, represented by weighted violence score in the area, was associated with a high risk of inadequacy for most macronutrients and micronutrients.
More than half of the women in this study were found to have nutrient intake inadequacy for all macronutrients plus calcium and thiamine. Almost half of the women had a lower iron and niacin intake compared to than the Thai RDA. Folic acid, vitamin C, iodine, retinol and riboflavin intakes were found to be adequate in most women. Factors associated with higher nutrient inadequacy were low educational attainment and high level of violence within the community. Those associated with lower nutrient inadequacy were maternal age less than 20 years, gestational age at enrolment of 14 weeks or more and a pre-pregnancy BMI of less than 18.5.
Table 6 shows a summary of five studies conducted in the USA, Nigeria, China and Thailand on the levels of daily nutrient intake in pregnant women [4, 6, 7, 10, 11]. The gestational age at recruitment and definition of inadequate intake varied across studies. In our study, gestational age and definition of inadequacy was similar to the study from USA  but different from the other two studies in Thailand, which both studied pregnant women in their late trimester [10, 11]. Inadequacy of both macronutrient and micronutrient intake was commonly detected in developing countries [4, 6] in contrast to the study from USA .
Our study found that maternal age, education, gestational age at recruitment and pre-pregnancy BMI were associated with nutrient inadequacy. Maternal age was associated with inadequacy of all macronutrients. In our study, pregnant women aged less than 20 years, compared to those aged 20-34 years, had a lower nutrient inadequacy. This finding was different from the study in Nigeria which showed a higher inadequacy and 100% RDA was used for the threshold of inadequacy . This finding discrepancy may be explained by the different threshold of inadequacy and difference in study participants. Pregnancy among youths in lower south of is socially acceptable; as a result, young women may have awareness on the risks of pregnancy leading to improved nutrient intakes.
Education was found to have a consistent effect on inadequacy of almost all nutrients. Women who had a primary education or less were 1.5-3 times more likely to have nutrient inadequacy. Generally, nutritional principles are incorporated into the compulsory education of Thailand. However, knowledge on nutrition requirement for pregnant women is not included. It is also possible that women with a higher education have better food habits than those with a low education. This is supported by a study in Japan which found that higher education is associated with higher intakes of protein, fatty acid, dietary fiber, cholesterol, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin A, D, E and C and folate .
In addition, gestational age at enrolment of 14 weeks or more was found to be associated with a lower risk for inadequacy of both macronutrients and micronutrients. This finding was consistent with a previous study which found that a loss of appetite and morning sickness were more likely to occur in the first trimester of pregnancy . Women with pre-pregnancy BMI of less than 18.5, compared to normal BMI (BMI 18.5-24.9), had a lower carbohydrate inadequacy in our study, contrasting a finding of a study in China . This might be explained by a difference in definition of inadequacy between two studies. However, the link between lower carbohydrate inadequacy and low pre-pregnancy BMI could not be explained. Although a study suggested that the type of carbohydrate may be related to body weight, the daily total carbohydrate intake was not found to be related to BMI .
A higher level of violence in the community was associated with an increased risk of all nutrients inadequacy except fat, calorie and calcium. This finding might be due to the agricultural nature and lifestyles of people in this area. It is quite common for people living in the study area to set aside land surrounding their house for gardening and farming. Locally grown fruits and vegetables are rich in nutrients and provide the residents with adequate sources of calcium. Fresh fruits, such as banana, durian, jackfruit, rambutan and coconuts, which are eaten throughout southern Thailand, contain high amounts of fat and calories. The effect of long-term violence on nutrition intake may result in increased stress [21, 22], which may subsequently decrease appetite [23, 24]. In addition, foods may also be less accessible in areas of violence due to safety problems and difficulties involved with food transportation. These and other consequences of violence eventually reduce nutrient uptake for the people living in the area leading to nutrient inadequacy.
This study was hospital-based in nature but the coverage of early antenatal care was high (90%). Therefore the problem of samples not being representative of the population may not be serious. Like most epidemiological nutritional surveys, the reliability of food intake based on tabulation may be doubtful. Assuming that recall errors occur at random, the results would be biased toward no association.
Pregnant women living in Narathiwat province of southern Thailand had a high prevalence of nutrient intake inadequacy, particularly in macronutrients. Maternal age, education, gestational age, pre-pregnancy BMI and level of violence were associated with nutrient intake inadequacy; however, all the dietary intake components were not equally affected. Our evidence suggests that both individual and community factors are important and there is a need to put more effort on good counseling at antenatal care clinics to alleviate nutrient inadequacy, especially in high-risk women. The strengthening of community, health providers and health systems roles are needed for further studies to improve this condition.

Muhammadu Buhari Condoles With Late Dr Samuel Ogbemudia's Family
Folami David
President Muhammadu Buhari has condoled with late Dr Samuel Ogbemudia's family and the government and people of Edo on his death.
In a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina in Abuja on Friday, Buhari joined the family and other admirers in mourning the elder statesman.
President Buhari noted that the deceased had diligently served the country with courage and dedication at crucial moments in her history, both as military governor and a democratically elected civilian governor.
Buhari said Ogbemudia had a distinguished career as a military officer, administrator and Federal Minister, adding that he left an impressive legacy of hardwork, discipline and commitment to communal, state, regional and national development.
The President recalled "the unique role of the elder statesman in the nation's return to civilian rule in 1999 and trusts as a tireless advocate for equity''.
He said the deceased would be long remembered and honoured for his dedication to the advancement of his people, especially in the fields of education, social welfare and infrastructure.
Buhari prayed that God Almighty would comfort his family, friends and well wishers, and grant his soul eternal rest.
Late Ogbemudia was a former governor of the defunct Midwest region and old Bendel State.

With its unique mounting, you're free from mounting presses and external services. This is made possible by the CSEasy adapter, which can be loosened with a simple Allen key. Compared to conventional solid tires, the adapter ensures a significantly more secure rim seating and simultaneously prevents the tires from twisting on the rim.
And the brilliant adapter has a further advantage: The CSEasy SC20+ tire heats up significantly less. Even under the toughest stress, the tire remains measurably cooler and is more durable compared to conventional solid tires.
Fit the CSEasy tire tightly onto the rim with the adapter.

Q: Example of progressively measurable function that is not measurable. Let $(\Omega ,\mathcal F,\mathbb P)$ a probability space and $(\mathcal F_t)$ a filtration. Can someone provide an example of function $f:[0,T]\times \Omega \to \mathbb R$ that is progressively (i.e. $f_{[0,t]\times \Omega }:[0,t]\times \Omega \to \mathbb R$ is $\mathcal B([0,t])\otimes \mathcal F_t$ measurable for all $t<T$), but that is not $\mathcal B([0,T])\otimes \mathcal F$ measurable ?

The exact definition of progressively measurable is to be $\mathcal P-$measurable where $$\mathcal P=\{\Gamma \subset [0,T]\cap \Omega \mid \forall t\leq T, \Gamma \cap ([0,t]\times \Omega )\in \mathcal B([0,t]\otimes \mathcal F_t)\},$$
but I guess that it's equivalent to than $f|_{[0,t]\times \Omega }$ to be $\mathcal B([0,t])\otimes \mathcal F_t$ measurable, no ? If not, could someone provide a counter example ?

Rabbit Room on the Road
By Pete Peterson • February 20, 2019
For years now, people have been asking us to take Hutchmoot on the road. That's a complicated request, but this year we've come up with a way to do just that…well, sort of.
We're teaming up with the Great Homeschool Conventions and the Wilberforce Weekend to provide eight—count 'em: EIGHT—Rabbit Room on the Road events this year. And don't worry, there's no need to be a homeschooler or even have any interest in homeschooling—you can still come and enjoy the Rabbit Room on the Road part of the program. We'll be visiting folks from California to New York, and below you'll see what we've got in store.
The great thing about most of these events is that you can purchase access for your entire family for a very low price. When you register for the Great Homeschool Convention, you'll have access to the entire program listed below as well as the rest of the convention content if you're interested. This is a GREAT chance to get a taste of Hutchmoot content for a fraction of the price (less than $70 for an entire family!).
Note: The Washington DC event is part of the Wilberforce Weekend and NOT a Great Homeschool Convention. See below for details.
So come out and join us. We'd love to see you at the sessions. Stop by the Rabbit Room booth afterward to say hello. Below, you'll find the program and the dates for each convention.
To register, visit the Great Homeschool Convention site here.
To register for the Wilberforce Weekend event in Washington DC, click here.
Rabbit Room on the Road at the Great Homeschool Convention includes:
Andrew Peterson live in concert
Slugs & Bugs live in concert
Community, Calling, & the Mystery of Making – Andrew Peterson and Jonathan Rogers discuss the nature of creative work—its challenges, its joys, its importance in the Kingdom of God—and the ways in which we enrich one another's lives when we participate in creative work together.
The Work of the People: Redemptive Rhythms in Our Shared Lives – Pete Peterson and Doug McKelvey examine the ways in which we strengthen families and build relationships, friendships, and community through the liturgical rhythms of our lives.
Finding Your Voice: Overcoming Barriers to Creativity – Jennifer Trafton and Helena Sorensen examine the forces that restrict creativity in our lives and explore ways in which we can break down those barriers and find room to let our imaginations thrive.
In Search of a Truer Story: Nurturing A Redeemed Imagination (Andrew Peterson, Douglas McKelvey, Helena Sorensen, A. S. Peterson, Jennifer Trafton, Jonathan Rogers) – What's the point of a good story? Why do we need them? What do they have to teach us? This panel of Rabbit Room writers and musicians invites you into a discussion about the importance of Story to our imaginations, our lives, and our faith.
Ft. Worth, TX – March 7-9
Greenville, SC – March 21-23
St. Louis, MO – March 28-30
Cincinnati, OH – April 25-27Ontario, CA – June 13-15
Rochester, NY – August 1-3
Jacksonville, FL – August 8-10
Rabbit Room on the Road at the Wilberforce Weekend includes:
Jonathan Rogers – Speaking on the subject of why stories are a powerful force in the Church and in the world.
Doug McKelvey & Andrew Peterson – Speaking on the subject of how our imagination shapes our capacity for hope.
Panel Discussion with Jonathan Rogers, Andrew Peterson, Doug McKelvey – A moderated discussion about how art nourishes community and community nourishes art.

Q: How to find radius of a circle when equations of parallel tangents are given
Equations of two parallel tangents to a circle are
  $2x-4y-9=0$ and $6x-12y+7=0$. How do I find the radius of the circle?

I have tried many methods, but still I  could not find the radius.
I know that the distance between two parallel tangents is equal to the diameter, but none of the contact point are given.
If I assume the centre to be $(a,b)$ and radius to be $r$ then when I apply the perpendicular distance of a line from a point I get two equations but I have three unknowns, so I cannot solve....any help will be appreciated

A: HINT

*

*Consider the line through the origin perpendicular to the tangents that is $y=-2x$

*Determine the intersections points P and Q between this perpendicular line and the tangents

*Then $2R=PQ$

A: Hint: The distance between two parallel lines, $y=mx + c_1$ and $y=mx+c_2$ is
$$d = \frac{|c_1-c_2|}{\sqrt{1+m^2}}.$$

A: You need the distance between the two lines, which is the diameter. You should know how to compute the distance between a point and a line. Take an arbitrary (convenient) point on the most complicated looking line and find the distance from that point to the other line. Alternatively "draw a diagram" and "do the geometry (pythagoras)" - diagrams are surprisingly useful for this kind of problem..

A: Another way is:

*

*normalize the coefficients of $x,y$, i.e. find the unitary normal vector to the two lines
which thus shall be the same, and (if not) better to take with the same orientation
$$
{\bf n} = {1 \over {\sqrt {20} }}\left( {2, - 4} \right) = {1 \over {\sqrt {180} }}\left( {6, - 12} \right) = {1 \over {\sqrt 5 }}\left( {1, - 2} \right)
$$

*rewrite the equations accordingly
$$
{1 \over {\sqrt 5 }}x - {2 \over {\sqrt 5 }}y = {9 \over {2\sqrt 5 }}\quad \quad {1 \over {\sqrt 5 }}x - {2 \over {\sqrt 5 }}y =  - {7 \over {6\sqrt 5 }}
$$

*the above tells you that the two lines are at distance from the origin, measured in the orientation of $\bf n$, of
$ {9 \over {2\sqrt 5 }}$ and $ - {7 \over {6\sqrt 5 }}$, i.e. at ${17 \over {3\sqrt 5 }}$ from each other.
Then it is easy to write the equation of the middle line, and to put your circle with the center over that.

A:
Given equations of the parallel lines
\begin{align}
y&=\tfrac12\,x-\tfrac9{4}
,\\
y&=\tfrac12\,x+\tfrac7{12}
,
\end{align}
we can construct a triangle $ABC$
with two distinct points on one line
and the third point on another line,
for example as
\begin{align}
A&=(0,-\tfrac94),\quad
B=(\tfrac92,0),\quad
C=(0,\tfrac7{12})
.
\end{align}
For this triangle we can find that
\begin{align}
|AB|&=\sqrt{(B_x-A_x)^2+(B_y-A_y)^2}
=\tfrac{9\sqrt5}4
\end{align}
and the area can be found as
\begin{align}
S_{\triangle ABC}
&=
\tfrac12((B_x-A_x)(C_y-A_y)
-(B_y-A_y)(C_x-A_x))
=\tfrac{51}8
.
\end{align}
Given that, we can find the height $|CD|$ of $\triangle ABD$
as
\begin{align}
|CD|&=\frac{2S_{\triangle ABC}}{|AB|}
=\frac{17\sqrt5}{15}
\end{align}
and the radius of the circle is then
\begin{align}
R&=\tfrac12|CD|=\frac{17\sqrt5}{30}
\approx 1.2671
.
\end{align}

It's a Casino for those who like variety with a huge game range and a number of exciting features that you will not find at all casinos. At the same time it is neat and fresh as a new casino site from uk should be.

Here, you do not feel like sitting at a cheap casino on the outskirts of Las Vegas - here you are on the most modern midst of the strip. And you will meet plenty of bonuses, promotions and rewards on this exciting journey. Start with the welcome bonus and continue!
Like most other casinos, Casilando obviously also offers offers to the faithful customers. At Casilando it's Thursdays, which is your golden day of play. Every Thursday you get 50% bonus on deposits up to 250 euros and 20 more free spins. If for some reason, just Thursday is your big game, Casilando is the casino for you.
In addition, Casilando also has a loyalty program. You get points every time you play. The points can then be converted into bonus money. At the first deposit you will receive 500 kr in loyalty points. After that you get points for each game. Different games give different points. Where slot machines and scratchcards give you the highest score and the roulette gives you the lowest score.
The great advantage of Casilando is nevertheless the wide range of games. They offer games from over 20 different developers and also have a simple search feature to ensure you find the game you are looking for. When it comes to slot machines, everyone of course has their own favorites.
But when we surfed on the site we were unable to find any games that we just missed. Here are modern classics like "Mega Fortune" and "Starburst" and there are several exciting news. At the moment of writing, in the midst of a burning soccer vm, for example, "Foxin 'wins football fever" is one of the great favorites on the site.
Even the table games are large. Here are both "Texas Hold'em" and "Caribbean Stud". You will find several different forms of Roulette and Black Jack. One of the Black Jack players who signed has no "Black Jack Switch" - but on the other hand, there are classic "Red Dog", which you can not find at every casino.

In addition to this, bank transfers are also accepted.

06 February 2012 Amy Stansbury Features, People You Should Know
ABI REIMOLD TTN
Gabrielle Taube calls it an extreme nutrition lesson, the industry calls it urban farming, but the children at Penrose Community Center just call it fun.
With the help of Temple Community Garden volunteers, Taube educates students in grades kindergarten through eighth on the virtues of nutritional eating and gardening every Tuesday at the community center, located at 12th Street and Susquehanna Avenue.
After helping the children to finish their homework, Taube teaches them how to grow their own food through the use of six raised soil beds and one vertical garden located at the community center.
"The kids really love it," Taube said. "They don't always love to play in the dirt but they like to see their stuff grow and they love fruits and vegetables."
Living in Philadelphia creates many challenges for children seeking to consume a balanced diet.
"Having fruits and vegetables is somewhat of a novelty," Taube said. "After school they get a hot meal, but there is no fresh produce."
According to the 2009 Philadelphia Youth Risk Behavior Survey, 82 percent of students consume fruits and vegetables less than five times per day, and 17 percent of children are obese. Urban farming has the potential to alter these statistics both by providing access to nutritional foods, and by instilling a love and habit of eating them.
Taube said providing the children with the opportunity to grow their own food is an effective method to introduce them to new and nutritional foods, which they might never have tried otherwise.
"The garden is visible to the entire community," Taube said. "The kids like to show it off. They take pride in making it, so they at least want to try everything that they grow."
Not only does urban farming provide children with nutritional benefits, but it also provides the community with environmental advantages. Producing food locally cuts down on the fuel usage that is necessary to transport food across long distances.
Taube also teaches students how to garden organically, a method that is key to environmental sustainability. Farms that use chemical fertilizers and pesticides often contribute to polluted waterways, as the runoff from them contains materials that are harmful to marine environments.
Agriculture is the leading source of pollution in 48 percent of the nation's river miles, as indicated in a report conducted by the Environmental Protection Agency. Taube said environmental change in Philadelphia is more likely to be instituted if students are taught how to plant in a responsible manner.
For those who live in the shadows of steel skyscrapers as opposed to the fields of high-corn stalks, it is all too easy to forget the impact that food production has on the environment.
Agriculture, especially when it is conducted in an unsustainable manner, without significant thought as to its future consequences, leads to land degradation, soil erosion, greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution and excessive water use.
"In urban environments we are just so removed from the food process," Taube said. "But knowing where your food comes from is important."
Taube said that connecting students with the food process is an effective step towards creating a healthier and more environmentally conscious community.
For Taube, it is this focus on creating a difference in the community that is most important.
"I feel as if these kids are our neighbors," Taube said. "Temple students are too occupied in the campus bubble, but it is important to grow bonds within the community."

On the back of astounding successes in 2015 and 2017 in the treatment of patients on our mesothelioma trial (Lancet Oncology) and new pancreatic cancer Next Gen EDV treatment (Pipeline), the ECRF welcomes its supporters to spread the word and fund raise to directly support pre-clinical research into the next generation of cancer treatments.
The Foundation, while small, is committed to challenging existing approaches to treating cancer and to encouraging the development of therapies that are tailored to the individual and not simply standardised across patients. We do not believe that debilitating side effects of chemotherapy should simply be accepted as a necessary evil associated with treatment, and want to ensure that there are research programs, student and professionals who are constantly challenging the treatment norms to come up with novel and tailor-made medicine solutions, even in less common cancers that often receive little research funding.
All funds raised are committed directly to the job at hand. The Foundation operates with no overhead expenses and all fundraising work is purely on a volunteer basis.

Policeman does mouth-to-mouth on dog after pulling it from landslide in Colombia
A heartwarming video captured the moment police officers rescued a dog from certain death by pulling it from a landslide.
The animal was spotted by two officers who were on patrol in the town of Salgar, Colombia, which was hit by a devastating landslide leaving more than 60 people dead.
They noticed the dog being pulled by the dangerous currents of the Liboriana River, which burst its banks after heavy rains, and acted instinctively in their bid to save it.
In the clip, a heartwarming scene from the area which has been struck by tragedy, the animal can be seen flailing as it crashes into rocks and is thrown about by the current like a rag doll.
The officers risk their own lives by jumping into the fast moving water to rescue it.
Once captured the dog is brought to the bank where two officers attempt to resuscitate it by pumping its chest and performing CPR.
Later in the clip the animal is on its feet despite appearing to be extremely weary.
According to local media, the dog had suffered injuries from the rocks in the river but is expected to make a full recovery.
Colombia's northwest mountain region has been ravaged by landslides of late.
In Salgar more than 60 people have been killed after a landslide in the early hours of Monday morning brought mud and water down onto homes in the worst disaster of its kind for a decade.
With more people still being reported missing, the death toll is expected to rise even further.
Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos travelled to the area on Monday, declaring a state of emergency and promising to rebuild homes.

India's New Capitalists
India's New Capitalists: Caste, Business, and Industry in a Modern Nation (Permanent Black/Palgrave Macmillan 2008), looks at the changing social composition of the country's business class, particularly after Independence. Business in India was traditionally an occupational silo in the caste system, with businessmen predominantly 'Banias' recruited from the Vaishya or mercantile order within the classical Hindu chaturvarna (four-order) hierarchy. The 'Bania' over the ages even acquired a generic connotation, referring to any businessmen - be it the local village grocer and moneylender or the large factory owner and banker. That picture has, however, undergone significant transformation in more recent time, with the entry of entrepreneurs from diverse community backgrounds, including those with no established pedigree in trade or finance.
India's New Capitalists sought to trace three broad routes through which the journeys to the boardrooms have taken place. The first, 'Shop to Factory', is the familiar passage of the various Vaishya castes (Bania/Marwaris plus Parsis, Gujarati Lohanas and Bhatias, Sindhis, Nattukottai Chettiars and Muslim Memons, Khojas and Bohras) into industry. The second, 'Office to Factory', relates to the Brahmins, Punjabi Khatris, the Bengali bhadralok and similar scribal castes, who were historically and culturally conditioned to the different administrative and white-collar professions. The third, 'Field to Factory', is of the so-called or Shudra castes with roots primarily in farming and allied activities (Kammas, Reddys, Gounders, Patidars, Marathas, Jats, Nadars, Ezhavas, Ramgarhias, etc). In examining the three transition trajectories, especially the last two, India's New Capitalists has tried to capture the expansion in the social base of Indian capital 'beyond the Bania', so to speak. At the same time, it has also highlighted regional variations and limits to this process of 'democratising' Indian capitalism.
Harish Damodaran
Fellow-New India Foundation 2004
Available on amazon Good Reads
During the early post- Independence years and right until the 1970s, there was considerable critical writing on the Indian capitalists. This was a period when the developmental state was still a viable option. Public investment was the preferred route.
- The Hindu
For 200 years, social scientists have tried hard to explain why and how agrarian societies transform into industrial nations. When, how and why do merchants, traders, moneylenders and landlords become industrial capitalists?
- Outlook
Books on the business histories of South Asia rarely succeed in exciting the reader's interest and in generating fresh insight. Initially, there was an obsession with the traditional mercantile groups that prospered in the shadow of the raj.
Harish Damodaran is a journalist with over 25 years of reporting experience, starting with the Press Trust of India (1991-94) and The Hindu Business Line (1994-2014). Since October 2014, he has been with The Indian Express, where he is Rural Affairs and Agriculture Editor. Much of Damodaran's journalistic career has been spent in farm and agribusiness reporting, a job that has involved tracking price movements, production, market arrivals and policy developments, whether relating to grains, pulses, oilseeds, sugar, cotton or dairy products. Working as a farm reporter has given him ample opportunities to travel, observe, study and learn from people and things on the ground, while complementing his wider interests in macroeconomics, corporate developments, business and social history. Damodaran's first book, India's New Capitalists, was a product of insights from observing the social profile of businessmen in different parts of India and seeking to build upon what was originally intended as material for an editorial/opinion page article or long-form news story. The book won the prestigious Ramnath Goenka award. Currently, Damodaran is working on a biography - of somebody who headed India's third largest industrial house at the time of Independence and whose business practices was also influential in driving policies such as insurance and bank nationalisation and abolition of the managing agency system. Drawing on unpublished private papers and diaries, it is an attempt to document in detail the personal and business life of a prominent tycoon, while also locating these in the larger economic and social context of that time.

First forum trip for Northside Adventures was a good one. A small but enthusiastic crew of myself, Formtool and Greg met early at Sandspit wharf. It was great to meet you both. Thanks for making the effort to drive up and also for giving the lures a go too.
I was debating which way around to do the trip - in the end I decided to head 50 km'ish over to where they were on the last trip, then probably head south.
Arriving at last weeks drift lines we were met by dolphins and birds. No workups but all the signs were there - most importantly, sign on the bottom in 50m.
I figured we'd see what developed around us and go hunting if we needed to. After a brief intro to lure fishing, the lures were sent down. Turned out didn't really need any instruction.
We were into solid fish from the first drop. It was all over quite quickly. Orange kaburas and pink/lumo combos working as expected.
I also had a crack with some new 10 inch Zmans in nuked pilchard (blue and white) on a 4 oz lumo head with VMC jigging hook. Got nailed straight away by a couple of nice snapper. Very encouraging and lots of fun with the line peeling off the Poseidon slow jigging reels. So far, they are proving to be perfect for the job.
Bin was filled quickly with quality snapper to around 15lbs.
What to do next......it has been tough around Kawau recently but we'd got what we needed out wide. Back across it was to try some shallow water catch and release with the softbaits.
I'd barely finished explaining 'how to' when Formtool hooked a solid fish second cast on a Zman new penny. Again, no instruction really needed and after a quick pic a snapper of around 4kgs was sent on it's way.
Nice! Pretty hard to fill those last minute charters but good on you JW for putting on the opportunity for the fishing.netters.
Clearly a great trip out as the photos indicate.Some top fish there. Fish that many can only dream about. Well done.
Cheers. It was very short notice and a weekday. The fishing is so good out there at the moment - the weather window had to be taken.Makes for a quick trip though.
Awesome Boo, you've got it dialed in by the looks!
It's very fishy up around there Boz. I'd like to head over to Great Barrier for the next trip once this system blows through. Looks like Saturday could be a good day at the moment.


Legal concerns interrupt your life and the lives of those you love. If you face criminal charges, if you suffered an injury in an accident that was caused by someone else, or if you are wrestling with some other legal matter, you no doubt want to resolve it as quickly as possible and move on with your life.
The legal team at Rogers, Duncan & North understands this. We work toward the same objective of resolving legal issues for our clients as efficiently as possible, yet we also emphasize working to achieve the best possible outcome for every client. If that takes extended negotiations with district attorneys, if it requires a more aggressive approach with opposing counsel, or if it can only be accomplished by going to trial and fighting for you, then so be it.
Our attorneys have more than 80 years of cumulative experience. That is a statistic that actually means something because when you hire our firm, all three attorneys will have some input on the development of the legal strategy that is used.
And while our lawyers are "old school" in their diligent approach to preparing a case for trial, they are extremely current with today's high-tech communication tools, which allow for clear, concise communication with our clients. We respond to calls quickly and our lawyers interact with clients directly.
We have established a strong reputation among prosecutors, judges and other court personnel in municipal and federal courts throughout Tennessee. That frequently benefits our clients by allowing us to cut through the gamesmanship and resolve matters quickly without the need for a trial.
We offer a free consultation in which we can answer your questions and provide a straightforward assessment of your case. Call us or email us to schedule an appointment.

Eleanor Campbell: In situ studies of carbon nanotube growth and the mechanical properties of graphene membranes
In situ spectroscopy has been used to obtain insight into the growth mechanisms of carbon nanotubes and the processes behind the extremely rapid growth that is observed for nanotubes grown on a local micro-scale heater. Studies of local heater growth will be presented and the dependence of the growth kinetics and morphology of the nanotubes on the growth conditions will be shown. In the second part of the talk, studies of the mechanical properties of graphene membranes, carried out in collaboration with colleagues at Chalmers University, will be shown where the behaviour of membranes under electrostatic actuation will be presented and scanning probe microscopy and Raman spectroscopy has been used to gain insight into the graphene behavior. The studies allow the first determination of the bending rigidity of mono- and few-layer graphene.
Eleanor Campbell obtained her PhD from the University of Edinburgh (1985) and then spent over 20 years working in Germany (Freiburg University and Max Born Institute) and Sweden (Chair of Atomic and Molecular Physics at Gothenburg University) before returning to Edinburgh to take up the Chair of Physical Chemistry in 2007. She is currently also a guest professor in the Division of Quantum Phases and Devices at Konkuk University, Korea. Her research interests range from fundamental studies of the excited state properties of large molecules and clusters in the gas phase to studies of the growth, manipulation and characterization of carbon nanomaterials. She has published over 250 papers and serves/has served on the Editorial Boards of Applied Physics A, Chemical Physics Letters, EPJD and Nano.
