Ventricular-brain ratio (VBR), also known as the ventricle-to-brain ratio or ventricle-brain ratio, is the ratio of total ventricle area to total brain area, which can be calculated with planimetry from brain imagining techniques such as CT scans.
It is a common measure of ventricular dilation or cerebral atrophy in patients with traumatic brain injury or hydrocephalus ex vacuo. VBR also tends to increase with age.

Generally, a higher VBR means a worse prognosis for recovering from a brain injury. For example, VBR is significantly correlated with performance on the Luria-Nebraska neuropsychological battery. Studies have found people with schizophrenia have larger third ventricles and VBR. Correlational studies have found relationships between ventricle-brain ratio and binge eating and inversely with plasma thyroid hormone concentration.

The ability to solve word problems ranks high on any math teacher's list of goals. How can I teach my students to solve math problems? I must help them develop the ability to translate "real world" situations into mathematical language.
In two previous posts, I introduced the problem-solving tools algebra and bar diagrams. These tools help our students organize the information in a word problem and translate it into a mathematical calculation.
This time I will demonstrate these problem-solving tools in action with a series of 3rd-grade problems based on the Singapore Primary Math series, level 3A. For your reading pleasure, I have translated the problems into the universe of a well-written biography of Ben Franklin, Poor Richard by James Daugherty.
Ben helped his father make 650 tallow candles. After selling some, they had 39 candles left. How many candles did they sell?
This is much like a 2nd-grade problem, but with larger numbers. The main difficulty is to convert the common-sense equation that represents the story into its fact-family partner. If your student doesn't recognize the logic of that switch, review how fact families work by using smaller numbers: 5 = 9 – 4 means also that 4 = 9 – 5.
Sold = 650 – 39 = 611 candles.
In the bar diagram, the relationship is clear. This is a simple, one-step problem.
650 – 39 = 611 candles sold.
Ben sold 830 newspapers. His brother James sold 177 fewer newspapers than Ben.
(a) How many newspapers did James sell?
(b) How many newspapers did they sell altogether?
In early 2-step problems, the textbook asks for each step explicitly. Later, the student will be expected to figure out which intermediate steps are needed to find the answer. For this problem, the main danger is that your student will insert a mental period after "James sold 177" and not finish reading the sentence.
We will use each man's name to represent the number of newspapers he sold.
Total = Ben + James = 830 + 653 = 1483 newspapers.
This is a comparison problem. We need a bar for the newspapers Ben sold and a bar for the papers sold by James. To indicate that we need to find the total, we put a bracket to the right of our drawing, encompassing both bars.
830 – 177 = 653 newspapers James sold.
830 + 653 = 1483 newspapers sold altogether.
Ben loved to visit the London book shops. In one small shop, there were 6 shelves of books. Each shelf held the same number of books. There were 30 books altogether. How many books were there on each shelf?
Words like "each" or "every" or "average" usually signal a this per that (or rate) problem. This per that problems require multiplication or division, and your student must be able to use logic to figure out which is needed. Since you are taking the total number of books and sharing them out among the shelves, it is division.
The basic "part + part = whole" diagram showed the inverse relationship between addition and subtraction. Now students can use the "(number of units) x (size of units) = total" diagram to represent both multiplication and division problems, because multiplication and division are also inverse operations. Remember that when the units are all the same size, we only need to write a number in the first one.
1 unit = 30 ÷ 6 = 5 books on each shelf.
Ben and his friends made a club called "The Junto" to read books and discuss ideas. Ben read 7 science books. He read 5 times as many history books as science books. How many more history books than science books did he read?
Notice that the math book is no longer asking a question for each step in the problem. Students will tend to do one calculation and then move on to the next problem. Remind them to check that they have fully answered the question before going on.
How many more = History – Science = 35 – 7 = 28 books.
Another comparison, with same-size units of books. We do not need the extra step of calculating how many history books Ben read. The bar diagram contains enough information to lead us directly to the answer.
4 units = 4 x 7 = 28 books.
Ben collected donations for many worthy organizations. He had 2467 pounds in a bank account to start a new hospital. A friend gave him another 133 pounds. How much more money must Ben collect if he needs 3000 pounds for the hospital?
Like the candles problem above, this problem requires a knowledge of how equations work — in this case, the inverse relationship between addition and subtraction. You may need to remind your students that 7 = 5 + 2 means also that 7 – 5 = 2.
Here we introduce our first algebra variable: I chose a question mark to stand in for our unknown value. Students may use an x or m or any symbol they like.
How much more money needed = ?
Total = Bank + Friend + ?
3000 = 2467 + 133 + ?
3000 = 2600 + ?
The bar diagram makes the inverse relationship easy to see.
3000 – (2467 + 133) = 3000 – 2600 = 400 pounds needed.
While in France to negotiate a treaty, Ben went to a fancy party. There were 1930 women at the party. There were 859 fewer men than women. How many people were at the party altogether?
This is exactly like the newspaper problem earlier, but with bigger numbers. Again, the main danger is that your student will read the sentence about men as "There were 859 (fewer) men" and think, "Well, of course 859 is fewer!" but not notice the rest of the phrase.
Total = Women + Men = 1930 + 1071 = 3001 people.
Again, there should be a bracket to the right, showing that we need to find the sum of the two bars.
(2 x 1930) – 859 = 3860 – 859 = 3001 people.
There are often more ways to find an answer than you might expect. Here, I have shown an alternate calculation. Although I imagine most 3rd-grade students would do the calculation exactly as is done in the algebra section above, the bar diagram reveals another way to look at the problem, if we wish. We could first find out what the total would be IF there had been the same number of men as women, and then subtract the extra men (the ones who weren't really there). Sometimes the less obvious method will lead to a much easier calculation, as it does here: 860 – 859 = 1.
As I mentioned in the 2nd-grade article, the algebra approach required me to recognize on my own which operation was needed to solve the problem. Algebra offers an efficient way to write down my reasoning, which usually lets me move quickly from problem to solution. Students with strong reading and reasoning skills will appreciate this efficiency, but weaker students may have trouble deciding whether to add or subtract, multiply or divide. Even strong students may have difficulty when it becomes necessary to rearrange an equation or when a story requires several steps.
Bar diagrams often take up more space and require more pencil-to-the-paper work from the student in drawing them out. But in most cases, the bar diagrams offer more help for students who struggle with the question, "What do I do?" Diagrams put the inverse relationships on display, enabling the student to decide which arithmetical operation to use. On occasion, a bar diagram will surprise me by offering a more efficient solution than the algebra approach.
One clear advantage of bar diagrams, in my opinion, is how well they lead to understanding ratios. The problem with the science and history books is a good example. Students will meet many problems like this in Singapore math — one thing is some number times as many as another thing. The bar diagram shows this relationship: the bar really is 5 times as big.
The algebra approach leaves the relationship hidden in the abstraction of the numbers: 5 x 7 = 35, but what does that really mean? Problems like this are going to grow more challenging as students progress, until they become the dreaded ratios and proportions of pre-algebra. These topics are notoriously difficult for students [JSTOR access required, or try this article instead], but I believe the bar diagrams provide a much better foundation for understanding than any other method I have seen.
When using algebra with young children, keep the abstraction to a minimum. Do not introduce generic variables like x and y. Instead, use significant words from the story, like the names of the characters or their initials, or use words like Total and Leftover that name the relationship between quantities. And when you write or read an equation, emphasize the connection between the math and the story by saying the whole word, even if all you write is the initial.
Bar diagrams are normally drawn as rectangles, like blocks or Cuisenaire rods, and numbers or words may be written inside to label them. Brackets are used to group the bars together or to indicate a specific section of a bar.
When I teach my students to draw bar diagrams, I do it apart from their daily homework. My students are allowed to work their daily homework by whatever method they choose — including doing it all in their heads and just writing an answer — as long as they can explain the logic of their solution. But in our story problem workbook, they have to draw the bars.
As a compensation for the extra pencil work of drawing, they do not have to actually calculate the answer. Once they show me how the bars are set up and tell me what would have to be done to solve it, they are done with that problem. They think they are pulling a fast one on me, because they aren't doing the multiplication or subtraction or whatever, but I want them to focus on reasoning through to a solution. I want them to learn how the bar diagram tool works before they get to the really tough problems where they need it.

Thanks, Denise, for the great post and the great links to the Thinking Blocks pages.
I pretended I needed help. Yikes –the help video was for a different problem. Now that would really upset a struggling student is sure he/she can't do word problems!
Just a caveat before teachers turn their students to work math problems at this site — work the series first, including clicking on the help buttons.
In general, this is a good audio/visual for explaining how the bar diagram method works for solving word problems. I hope more Singapore users find it, especially those who jump into Singapore after level 3 like we did.
Could you please describe the glitch to me that you found in the Multiplication and Division program? I would like the opportunity to find and repair the error.
The video help in the independent section provides word problems that are very similar to the problems students are working on. Think of it as looking back at the model provided at the beginning of a chapter in a textbook. The models are never identical to the practice problems but close enough to be helpful.
This is very helpful, thank you for this concise and detailed post. Blessings!
This is very helpful and really interesting for our students. I am a Filipino teacher and I think, this will make my subject more interesting. Keep it up and may the Lord God bless your kind heart for having this site.
We are trying to solve a third grade problem using bar merhod.
Try dividing the first diagram (the three bars) into smaller units, each 1/3 of the original size. Compare those units to the second diagram, with the number 72, and that should show you how to get your answer. But remember: They want you to tell them the size of the original mystery number, not the little piece!
Some great insight into methods to help younger pupils make sense of these worded questions. But urgh, some of those questions are ridiculous!
I'm not sure what you mean by "ridiculous", Stephen, but perhaps you mean that these problems–like most word problems in math books–are not realistic, not something anyone would calculate in real life. But realism is not the goal of math word problems.
Especially in the elementary grades, word problems are mental manipulatives. Their goal is to make children think about the relationships between mathematical ideas in a way that abstract lessons and numbers-only calculations cannot. In these problems, students must grapple with such concepts as inverse operations and proportional reasoning.
Are you familiar with Andre Toom's Word Problems in Russia and America? Highly recommended reading for all math teacher!

I was just browsing the Twitter and came accross a tweet mentioning that Chrome 63 is coming with  **[Multi-client remote debugging support](https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/10/devtools-release-notes#multi-client)**

[comment]: <> ({{< tweet 922874617424879616 >}})

This news made me little excited as it opens up hell lot of possibilities for people like me who works in Test Automation. Just to give you all some back ground on how chromedriver server controls the chrome when we send our WebDriver commands in our Selenium tests.

Till chrome 57 version, Chromedriver used to use an automation extension which gets injected in to your chrome and it helps to facilitate the communication between the chromedriver and the chrome.

But from Chrome 58 onwards they have removed the use of this extension and now everything is controlled by Chrome's dev tool api which uses WebSocket communication and also supports remote debugging. With this change chromedriver team has adviced to use the following chrome option to avoid any errors.

```java
options.setExperimentalOption("useAutomationExtension",automationExtension);
```

Let's go little deeper in to this Chrome's [remote debugging protocol](https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/)

Q: How add Vertical Scroll for ViewController How to add the Vertical scrolling for View Controller.
I have tried the below steps. But I cannot achieve the scrolling.
changed the simulated size of the view controller from fixed to the free form
set the width and height of the view controller
Add scroll view . Moved the UI elements to Scroll View
Added the following code in UIViewController class in viewDidLoad()
scrollView.contentSize = CGSize(width: self.view.frame.width, height: 800)

Please provide me input on this

A: ScrollViews in iOS are the most maddening things I have ever seen in my life.
 Are you using Auto-Layout? One thing to look at is the constraints, Xcode loves to add constraints that break everything. Look through the constraints and see if any are weird looking, especially ones that are constant +/- a large number.
Try putting all your UI elements into a view, and put the view in the scroll view. If it still wont work, try to then make this view larger than the scroll view and limit the scroll view to the phone screen size.
Finally try to find a working scrollview example and compare the components and constraints and see if it will help with yours. This worked for me when I was first starting to deal with them.

Today, we are getting fired up about the top five applicant tracking systems of 2018. Okay, so I'm just putting this little quick video out because I'm trying to figure out why haven't you completed the survey that's in the link below. We sent the survey out now four times, and we're deciding to do this a sixth round stint, right, where we send the surveys out. You can only complete the survey once, but I don't want it to be based on my experience and what my clients are telling me, I also want to be able to hear from you. The applicant tracking system companies want to hear from you. Let me tell you, it is a tight race this year. Are you kidding me?
Now listen, these ATS companies are playing to win. I have demoed now 27 applicant tracking system companies, and I think I still have four more on the books throughout the end of this month. It is not a game. We are not playing, they are not playing, and we want to launch this video towards the second week in March, so your feedback is imperative. Do me a favor, click on the link below, let us know the type of experience that you're having with your current applicant tracking system, and then once the video launches we can go in and celebrate and see who's doing what. I mean, we've got ATS companies that are integrating AI, email marketing, text messaging. I mean, widgets and Chrome plug-ins are flying everywhere. I'm talking about CRMs.
If you think that applicant tracking systems are old school or that they are outdated, let me just tell you, the things that they are doing with this technology is absolutely going to blow your mind. Oh, and you know, I am such a geek. Like, I am in ATS heaven. I want you to experience that with me. Do me a favor, click on the link below, finish the survey. It's about five minutes and we promise we won't sell you anything. We only want your feedback. Click here to complete the survey.

In talent-intensive jobs, workers' quality is revealed by their performance. This enhances productivity and earnings, but also increases layoff risk. Firms cannot insure workers against this risk if they compete fiercely for talent. In this case, the more risk-averse workers will choose less quality-revealing jobs. This lowers expected productivity and salaries. Public unemployment insurance corrects this inefficiency, enhancing employment in talent-sensitive industries, consistently with international evidence. Unemployment insurance dominates legal restrictions on firms' dismissals, which penalize more talent-sensitive firms and thus depress expected productivity. Finally, unemployment insurance fosters education, by encouraging investment in risky human capital that enhances talent discovery.

Q: How to hide the title if title value of link field is empty in drupal 7 views? I am using drupal 7. I want to create a list for content type promo. I have two fields in that one.

*

*Title

*Link(Created using the link module of drupal 7. So having two fields under this 1.Title. 2.URL).

My requirement is, I have to display the title as a link if title is there otherwise nothing should be displayed. But currently the url is displaying as a link if title is not there.
How can I fix this one?

A: Very simple:

*

*Add your link field with formmater: Title, as plain text;

*In 'NO RESULTS BEHAVIOR' check "Hide if empty" and "Hide rewriting if empty";

*In 'REWRITE RESULTS' check "Rewrite the output of this field" --> check "Output this field as a link" and set respective url value token in "Link Path".

In this way you'll get conditioned output.


Let Praises Ring: 18 Introductions and Hymn Accompaniments for Handbells, Organ, and Congregation by Charles E. Peery. For 3-5 octave handbells, organ. Handbell. Praise/Thanksgiving, General. Level II+. Published by MorningStar Music Publishers (MN.30-845).
Eighteen creative settings of traditional praise hymns make this a must-have volume for every church handbell choir. For use with three to five octaves of bells, organ, and congregation, each hymn has an introduction and festive final verse. Some hymns have provisions for an additional verse as well. These settings insure that the bells sound out, that the organist has something interesting to do, and that the congregation is supported and uplifted. Purchase of this product includes permission to reproduce all that you need to use all eighteen settings.


What must it be like to wake up as Benicio Del Toro, put on a nice suit or SWAT gear and be ready on set. He's not so much an actor as someone who is gifted to have 'the look', the dark, brooding, borderline sinister resting face.
Or Josh Brolin? Who only needs to add chewing gum and swagger to deliver sarcastic gold.
For that matter, in 'Sicario', directed by Denis Villeneuve, Emily Blunt, who merely needed one pained expression throughout the 2 hour movie.
I'm not saying 'Sicario' is worthless. Our Mexican drug lord concern has been over run by our fear of you know who, and yet the fat lady hasn't hit the stage to sing the ending to the drug war. It's just that we have a short attention span and would prefer to simultaneously inhale network fear mongering mixed with Trump extremist chastisement for wanting to allay said foreboding.
What's redemptive about 'Sicario', a wonderful supporting role by Daniel Kaluulya, whose last name makes me want a White Russian. But seriously, his role as Emily's 'brotherly' co-worker was the most nuanced role of the film.
The other outstanding feature was the sound. Both explosions and suspenseful music seemed to stand out, perhaps due to the banality to the plot and acting, or maybe because it truly was unique.
But the the topography and travel overload (here's a google map, here's a plane ride, here's a car trip) are not appropriate substitutes for character development and emotional resonance.

When you shadow copy a disk volume, you are actually generating a snapshot of the changes made to the folders and files within the disk volume at a certain point in time. Windows 2012 R2 shadow copy feature allows taking snapshots at set intervals, so that users can revert and restore their folders and files to a previous version.
The shadow copy feature for backups is a much faster solution compared to the traditional backup solution. We should keep in mind that shadow copy is not meant as a replacement for the traditional backup process. The shadow copy process never copies all the files and folders, but only keeps track of the changes made to them. This is the reason shadow copy cannot replace the traditional backup process. Typically, shadow copies are useful in scenarios where one needs to restore an earlier version of files or folders.
To configure shadow copy of a shared folder in Windows Server 2012, at first, you have to enable the shadow copy feature on the disk volume containing the shared folder. The shadow copy process works only at volume level and not on individual files or directories. Additionally, it works only on NTFS volumes and not on FAT volumes. After generating a snapshot of the data, the server keeps track of changes occurring to the data.
Typically, the server stores the changes on the same volume as the original, but you can change the destination. Additionally, you can define the disk space allocated to shadow copies. As the allocated disk space fills up, the server deletes the oldest shadow copy snapshot, thereby making room for newer shadow copies. Once the server has deleted a shadow copy snapshot, you cannot retrieve it. Windows Server 2012 R2 can keep a maximum of 64 shadow copies per volume.
Running a Windows Hyper-V or VMware Server? Hyper-V & VMware Backup made easy with Altaro's Free VM Backup Solution. Download Now!
The shadow copy feature requires prior installation of all the File and Storage Services. For installing or verifying the installation of all the File and Storage Services, logon to the server as a local administrator, go to the Server Manager Dashboard and click on Add Roles and Features.
Click on Install to enable all the File and Storage Services. Once the server has completed the installation, click on Close.
When the UAC confirmation dialog box opens, confirm with Yes. This opens the screen for Shadow Copies. Under Select a volume, click to select the volume C:\ from the list or any other volume for which you want to turn on shadow copies. Now, click on Enable.
In the Schedule dialog, tweak the settings to fit your environment in the best possible way and click on Ok to return to the Shadow Copies dialog.
To create a current snapshot, click on Create Now and under Shadow Copies of Selected Volume, a date and time entry will appear, signifying that the server has created a shadow copy snapshot. Click on Ok to close the dialog.
Users can access the shared volume/folders from either their local server or from a client PC over the network. They can see the previous versions (shadow copies) of their folders and files from the Properties of the shared folder or file.
This opens the Properties dialog for the share folder - C:\Users\Chris_Partsenidis. The list under Folder versions has all the shadow copies created for the share folder – C:\Users\Chris_Partsenidis. From this list, you can select a specific previous version (shadow copy) and choose to Open, Copy or Restore it.
After you have completed your work, click on Ok or Cancel to exit the dialog box.
This article explained the purpose Windows Shadow Copy services, how to enable and configure Shadow Copy for a Windows Volume. We also saw how administrators and users can access previous versions of folders/files that are located in a shadow-copy enabled volume.

Heat Storm Fallout
deanna2021-08-05T22:25:19-07:00A Future for Farming|
Berry growers are reeling from the unprecedented heat wave in late June. There was clear damage to the early raspberry crop resulting in a loss in volume and downgrades in pack styles. Impacts on the canes producing the 2022 crop are not yet understood but there will be some impact. Blueberries have similar, but not as severe, concerns.
On a recent Farming Show episode, Paul Sangha of Mountain View Berries spoke to Dillon Honcoop, communications director at Save Family Farming, about the impacts the early summer heatwave had on our berry farms, specifically blueberries.
"If you see a farmer out there, they've already gone through enough over the years, so definitely just give them a pat on the back. They could use it." – Paul Sangha, Mountain View Berries
Save Family Farming · Historic heat wave damages Whatcom raspberry, blueberry crops
Likening the extreme heat to an oven, Sangha said, "Our crops, fruit especially, just aren't acclimated to the kind of heat we experienced."
He noted that the kind of damage crops experienced during this heatwave can happen at temperatures of low to mid 90's, so when temperatures skyrocketed to 100-110 F, the fruit started to dry up and raisin on the bush. Stressed blueberry bushes reacted by shutting down and absorbing the water back out of the fruit. "It's blistering, the skin peels back, the maturity of the fruit deforms, and they have a lot of different defects."
With the raspberry harvest already started, there was a lot of concern and hope that blueberries would be okay after the highest temperatures passed, but fruit at all levels of development was hurt. "It takes a lot more effort to make that blue color come into formation, and the weather really has to cooperate to have that happen," explained Sangha.
He said they are now in a "wait and see" phase. Though the visual damage that can be seen will stay that way, there are hopes that what is left out there will be good quality food to harvest and get out to people to enjoy.
"Heading into this before the heatwave, it looked to be a strong quality year. Everyone felt pretty good about it. Now, with the things that have happened, I think we still have great quality food out there, just the volume is much lower. We're looking forward to getting the crop that's there out to people. We think they're still really going to enjoy it."
So how much lower volume can we expect? Paul explained further, "If you can see, visually, 10% damage in a field, that doesn't necessarily always mean that it's going to be only 10% as it travels. There's so many effects of it as it gets down the chain and to the consumer in the end."
Most blueberries are machine harvested, allowing some opportunities to get rid of the damaged fruit up front, but there are some big challenges of keeping the damaged fruit from harming the remaining good fruit as it moves through processing. Working backwards from that, he said farmers are putting in large efforts to protect that fruit.
"There are so many elements of this working together. When you are trying to get the highest quality, but you have a very small quantity to work with, the challenges are just overwhelming at that point," he said. "We were right at that finish line. We could see the finish line, and we were almost there. Now, sadly in a lot of places in our area, there's people that just won't get there."
He went on to say that while it's still too early to know for certain, there may be farmers that will just have to walk away from some areas of their fields.
Sangha said our farmers need the support of their community. "If you see a farmer out there, they've already gone through enough over the years, so definitely just give them a pat on the back. They could use it."
Berry growers are working with other crop and livestock farmers throughout the PNW region to seek support to mitigate losses. The amount of damage points to the need for federal help.
The Ag Directors in WA and OR are engaged with the congressional delegations from both states to outline the best path to provide this relief.
A disaster program created under USDA's Farm Service Agency to support wildfire and hurricane damage to farms in 2017 appears to be the template for building a support program. https://www.fsa.usda.gov/programs-and-services/disaster-assistance-program/wildfires-and-hurricanes-indemnity-program/index
Farmers are encouraged to keep good records to demonstrate their losses. We are hopeful that the opportunity to mitigate your losses will be available by this fall.

Nissan Navara review
Home >> Road Tests >> Coiled and ready
New multi-link rear suspension
Improved seat comfort
Still some noticeable road noise
Raised front wings
The next 12 months will see at least nine new pick-up trucks enter the market, including three brands debuting vehicles in this sector. Competition will be fierce and several of the established players will be weary of their competitors and the new arrivals.
Nissan, however, will be responsible for one third of those new vehicles. Renault will be creating their own pick-up thanks to their long established alliance with Nissan, and Mercedes-Benz too will get in on the act with a premium version of the truck.
As the lead architect, though, it stands to reason that Nissan is first to market, unleashing the NP300 Navara not only before its partners, but before much of the competition. With the new Navara due to make its debut later this month at the Frankfurt motor show, and launch in early 2016, only the Mistubishi L200, launched last month, will be available before it in Europe.
The outgoing model was hugely successful in combining working practicalities with a finesse and desirability that had passenger car and lifestyle customers switching to the Navara, but at heart it is still a rugged, workhorse-like off-roader. Since the Navara's last proper update in 2004 (there have been facelifts, the most recent of which was 2011) several key competitors, like Ford and Volkswagen, have emerged with capable off-roaders that lean more towards a passenger car audience, leaving less civilised and more traditional pick-up trucks lagging behind.
With their new model, Nissan has looked to bridge that gap by making the Navara more useable for a broader range of customers, integrating features from their new crop of ever popular crossover vehicles. The Navara's exterior has therefore been redesigned to more closely resemble Nissan's hugely successful Qashqai car, with a similar v-shaped grille design, while retaining the muscular styling expected of a pick-up. The front wings have been raised to not only give the NP300 Navara a bold new look, but to improve the driver's visibility of the vehicle's edges. While on the inside, the dash has been re-shaped and material quality improved to give a similar appearance to both the Qashqai and X-Trail.
Higher specification models even get some of their features including keyless entry, reversing cameras, climate control and a 7in touchscreen with NissanConnect Apps mirroring software. The Navara is gunning for a huge chunk of the lifestyle market, and with standard specification for top of the range models including LED daytime running lights, chrome accents on grille and wing mirrors, roof rails and 18in alloy wheels, they are going about it in the boldest way possible.
New technology features prominently in the revamped Navara, which includes Around View Monitor, a system that lets you see the ground ahead of you on the touchscreen at speeds of up to 10kph and Forward Emergency Braking. Additional features also include Cruise Control, Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist.
While these are all decent new features that will impress the hordes of passenger car buyers Nissan hopes to attract, those in the market for a pick-up truck – with knowledge of what they are traditionally like – will be more impressed by the Navara's smooth new ride.
Rear leaf-springs, a staple of the pick-up sector, have been replaced on the new model by a five-link rear suspension with coil springs. The only model currently to offer this traditionally passenger car suspension is the Ssangyong Korando Sports – a once fringe product due to its poor 630kg payload – that has recently been revised to give a one tonne carrying capacity but at a rock bottom price.
The decision to switch to a multi-link rear suspension is entirely justified as the results are a little short of astounding, and driving both vehicles back to back reveals just how significant the change is. The outgoing Navara bounces and shimmies its way along the road, leaving the driver constantly aware of the rear of the vehicle whilst giving the feeling that the load bed is entirely separate from the cab. The new NP300 Navara does away with that feeling thanks to its new suspension as the multi-link setup removes the wobble and crash of the rear, while a new rubber seal between the load bed and the cab cushions and reduces the shake.
The ride is undoubtedly smoother, but you notice it most as a passenger in the rear. Previously the Navara, like most pick-ups with leaf springs, would gently shake you in to submission over a long journey, but now the ride is almos static and bobble free. To add to the new ride, the rear seat comfort has also been improved by increasing the angle of the seat back and the length of the seat squab. While rear leg room is still not generous, the changes have made the new Navara a much more practical vehicle for four occupants.
From the driver's seat the Navara now feels even more composed both on- and off-road. The improved ride quality and a faster steering rack making the driving experience more enjoyable and less of a challenge. Enter a fast sweeping corner in the outgoing model and the nose would tend to push outwards, understeering noticeably away from the bend. The new model tracks the corner much better and the driver feels much more involved through the steering wheel and the truck's contact with the road.
Driving the Navara off-road has become even more effortless thanks to the Around View Monitor (AVM). Already supremely capable in the mud or dirt, the new model demonstrates excellent axle articulation and an abundance of torque at low revs to pull you along at slow speeds when the low ratio gearbox has been engaged. It is then, at these speeds, that the AVM can be used to provide a view of the ground directly in front of you to the centre console screen and assist in navigating particularly difficult terrain.
While Nissan says visibility of the Navara has been improved by raising the wings to bring them in to view, our initial verdict is that the change is of little benefit, and is if anything a slight distraction and more for the visual appearance of the pick-up. Sight lines around the vehicle, however, are good. The electric mirrors are a good size, and the rear window is not as letterbox-like as some others.
The interior has been overhauled, but still retains a familiar style and feel. The steering wheel for example has the same basic layout, but the switchgear has improved and pairs well with the leather wrapping standard on all but the basic models. The inside also feels of a higher quality. The interior plastics are no longer in numerous tones susceptible to scratching, but are tougher textured plastics that create some interest and appeal in the cab. The styling line running through the passenger's side of the dash is another good example of how Nissan has not just upped the quality but improved aesthetics in order to increase desirability.
Sound penetration is also noticeably improved both from the engine and the road. The 2.3-litre turbo and twin turbo options are now smoother with better response and a greater spread of torque. While road noise is still the greatest intrusion in to the Navara's cabin, the engine has not only become quitter but vibrations are less apparent too.
The outgoing Navara has been looking tired for quite some time, but this new model will revolutionise the sector. The new Mitsubishi L200 has set its stall out as the new workman rather than luxury lifestyle choice, but the Navara looks set to comfortably straddle both camps. We will have to wait and see whether pricing will be an issue, but given that a both a Renault and a Mercedes model will likely slot in below and above the Navara respectively I think we can assume even the top-spec Navara will still be priced competitively. Add to that the Navara's five year 100,000 mile warranty and the package looks even more alluring.
Without realising it, the Ssangyong Korando Sports may have set the tone for the new generation of pick-up trucks, however, sadly for them, Nissan has not only entered their niche segment of the market, but has brought with it a much more desirable product. The new Navara is effortlessly capable, generously equipped and now amazingly comfortable. Competition be warned, this pick-up is not just going to pick up sales, it's in danger of running away with all of them.

Thorvald Olaf Boeck (August 15, 1835 – April 21, 1901) was a Norwegian jurist, civil servant, and book collector. He is known for assembling what was the largest private library of its time in Norway.

Book collection
Boeck acquired his first book at the age of nine. He received his examen artium in 1854 from Heltberg High School and his candidate of law degree in 1860 from Royal Frederick University. At that time, he had collected 2,000 books and had worked for a few years as a stipendiary magistrate in Namdalen before returning to his native Kristiania and a new job as a copying clerk at the Ministry of Church and Education in 1863. In 1864 he won the H.R.H. Crown Prince Gold Medal for a thesis on prices of wood and fish. In 1874 Boeck was promoted to royal envoy. He headed the Oslo Workers' Society from 1877 to 1879, and he chaired the "flag meeting" on March 13, 1879, where the participants considered a new tricolor flag as proposed by Hagbard Emanuel Berner.

After marrying in 1866, Boeck relocated to a larger detached residence at Professor Dahls gate (Professor Dahl Street) no. 29, where he had room for his large book collection. However, space was limited, and he sold 754 volumes to the National Library of Iceland.

In 1899, Boeck sold 31,467 books for NOK 25,000 to the Royal Norwegian Society of Sciences and Letters in Trondheim together with a large number of maps, letters, and 610 manuscripts. The sales contract specified that the collection could not be split up. Most of the material was incorporated into the Gunnerus Library and, among other things, was an important addition to its collection of autographs. Today the collection is largely intact and is called the Thorvald Boeck Collection (Thorvald Boecks boksamling) with its own collection of handwritten material. Among other items, it includes:
 A first edition of Saxo Grammaticus's Gesta Danorum from 1514
 A Ludvig Holberg collection consisting of 300 volumes and four letters
 Much work by Henrik Ibsen
 Material by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson, including a handwritten draft of "Ja, vi elsker dette landet"
 A Henrik Wergeland collection consisting of 100 volumes plus some manuscripts, including a draft of "Til min gyldenlak" (To My Wallflower)

Family
Boeck was the son of the natural scientist and zoologist Christian Peder Bianco Boeck (1798–1877). He was born in the Calmeyerløkken neighborhood of Kristiania (now Oslo) and grew up in Kristiania with his brothers, including the marine biologist Jonas Axel Boeck (1833–1873). In 1866 Boeck married Julie Pauline Louise Maschmann (1841–1923), the daughter of the priest Bernt Sverdrup Maschmann (1805–1869). In 1889, Boeck's daughter Elisabeth (1868–1958) married the architect Herman Backer (1856–1932). Boeck's daughter Antoinette Augusta (1871–1939) married the wholesale merchant Jacob Christian Just Schram (1870–1952). The sculptor and painter Dagfin Werenskiold (1892–1977) married Boeck's granddaughter Elisabeth Mathilde Schram (1897–1989).

Legacy
In the National Gallery there is a painting by Harriet Backer portraying Boeck's private library in 1902.

Music Notation Hallucinations
Physician, neurologist, and author Oliver Sacks M.D. has outlined case studies of hallucinations of musical notation, and commented on the neural basis of such hallucinations, in a 2013 paper for the neurology journal Brain, as well as in his 2012 book Hallucinations.
In the paper, Dr Sacks is building on work done by Dominic ffytche et al in 2000, which delineates more than a dozen types of hallucinations, particularly in relation to people with Charles Bonnet syndrome. While ffytche believes that hallucinations of musical notation are rarer than some other types of visual hallucination, Sacks says that his own experience is different:
"Perhaps because I have investigated various musical syndromes, and people often write to me about these… I have seen or corresponded with a dozen or more people whose hallucinations include – and sometimes consist exclusively of – musical notation."
Case Studies of Musical Notation Hallucinations
Sacks goes on to detail eight fascinating case studies of people who have reported experiencing hallucinations of musical notation, including:
A 77 year old woman with glaucoma who wrote of her "musical eyes." She saw "music, lines, spaces, notes, clef, in fact written music on everything [she] looked at."
A surgeon and pianist suffering from macular degeneration, who saw unreadable and unplayable music on a white background.
A Sanskrit scholar who developed Parkinson's disease in his 60s and later reported hallucinating ornately-written music, occurring with a Sanskrit script. "Despite the exotic nature of the script the result is still western music," he said.
A woman who reported seeing musical notation on her ceiling upon waking in the morning.
A woman who said she wasn't a musician, but would hallucinate when she had high fevers as a child. She said that the notes were "angry, and [she] felt unease. The lines and notes were out of control and at times in a ball."
It is striking that, of Dr Sacks' eight case studies, seven were gifted musicians. Sacks comments:
"This is perhaps a coincidence, but it makes one wonder whether there is something about musical scores that is radically different from verbal texts."
Musical scores are far more visually complex than standard English text, with not just a variety of notes, but also many symbols that indicate how the notes should be played.
Charles Bonnet Syndrome
Dr Sacks also says that he has a mild form of Charles Bonnet syndrome himself, in which he sees a variety of simple forms whenever he gazes at a blank surface.
"When I recently returned to playing the piano and to studying scores minutely, I began to 'see' showers of flat signs along with the letters and runes on blank surfaces."
Another striking feature of these hallucinations is that, like text hallucinations, they are generally unreadable.
They can seem playable at first, but on closer inspection it transpires that the music is often nonsensical or impossible to play, such as an example reported in one of the case studies: a melody line three or more octaves above middle C, and so may have half a dozen or more ledger lines above the treble staff.
Usually, the early visual system analyses forms and sends the information it has extracted to higher areas, where it gains coherence and meaning. Normally, in the act of perception, the entire visual system is engaged.
Paradoxically, according to Sacks:
"one may have to study disorders of the visual system to see how complex perceptual and cognitive processes are analysed and delegated to different levels… and hallucinations of musical notation can provide a very rich field of study here."
