New home ownership is more affordable than you may think.
If you're looking for a new home now is a great time to buy a brand new home. We work with several new national and local home builders to help you find the right community and the right location. Several of our home builders are offering homes in the low to mid $200,000 price range. This price range is very competitive with resale homes. So for around the same price as a resale home you can buy a brand new energy efficient home with a 10 year warranty.
Four Seasons Smithville is a fantastic 55 and over active adult community built by K. Hovnanian. This is the largest 55 and over community in Atlantic County and has some of the best amenities activities and clubs for active adult home buyers. Recently I met with a couple who will be relocating and wanted to know when would be the best time of year to sell their house. Their new home would not be ready until July or August and they wanted to time the sale of their Four Seasons home with the purchase of the new home. I studied the 2018 sales in the community to give them an idea of when they would need to put their house on the market for sale.
The chart shows the number of sales each month for the community. Average days on market for Four Seasons was 57 for the year. So that means it took 57 days on average for a home to sign a contract. Then typically it would take another 30-60 days to close from that date.
The biggest sales month was July followed by April and September. If you are looking to sell at one of the peak months March or April is a great time to list the house for sale. Who do you know that needs this kind of advice in selling their home? Contact me for a free consultation.
Why You Should Buy Or Sell A House In Atlantic County Right Now.
There are many reasons to buy and sell a home right now in Atlantic County, NJ. Let's take a look at this from the perspective of home buyers and sellers.
Home Buyers In Atlantic County, NJ.
Interest rates are still low. You still have great buying power.
Atlantic County, NJ home prices are on the rise in many of our communities as inventory is shrinking. Purchase now before prices go up.
Right now there are less buyers looking for homes in the winter. Less buyers means less competition and you are less likely to get in bidding wars with other buyers. You can often negotiate a great price and terms this time of year.
Right now inventory is lower in Atlantic County. If your neighborhood has no other homes for sale or just a few for sale this could be a great time to sell before more homes come on the market in the Spring.
If you are moving up to a larger home this is the perfect market to move up to something bigger. Demand for lower price homes in the $200,000 range and below is high. Demand for higher priced home is not as great. That means you can get top dollar for your home and get a great deal when you purchase your next home.
Rates remain low. Higher interest rates mean less buying power for home buyer. If rates go up home prices will go down. Sell now before any likely interest rate hikes occur.
Figuring out when to buy and sell a home ultimately depends on your circumstances and situation. Contact me for a free consultation. I can ask a few simple questions to help you determine if this is the right time to buy or sell for you.
In this video I answer one of the most common questions I get. Should I wait until Spring to buy or sell a home.
Once again our market center is outperforming the market. As many of our competitors businesses are contracting we continue to grow while providing maximum benefits for our clients.
The chart below compares Keller Williams Realty Atlantic Shore and the entire South Jersey Shore Regional Multiple Listing System (all real estate brokers combined). We are outperforming the market in every category. Our main office is in Northfield NJ and we also have offices in Brigantine and Little Egg Harbor NJ.
Why wait until the Spring? There is less competition right now!
Many people always think of the Spring as the best time to sell and buy a home. That typically is when we have the most activity in our market however that doesn't mean it's always the best time to sell. Right now we are on the tail end of winter. We have some cold nights and the occasional snow storm and overall the weather is not bad. Buyers are out now shopping for homes. Listing and selling your home now means that your home will competing agains fewer homes for sale. Fewer homes for sale means you may be able to get a better price for your home.
Some of our communities are experiencing an all time low in inventory of homes available. The answer to the questions of when should I sell my house is it depends. It depends on your circumstances, your plans, your neighborhood and your house. There are many factors to consider and I'm here to help you. Contact me for a free consultation to determine when the best time to sell would be for you.
Now is a great time to sell your home.
We made it past Thanksgiving and now December will be over before we know it. Many home seller chose to pull their homes off the market this time of year and wait until Spring to sell. Here are 11 reasons sellers should list during the Holiday Season.
11. By selling now, you may have an opportunity to be a non-contingent buyer during the Spring, when many more houses are on the market for less money! This will allow you to sell high and buy low.
9. Even though your house will be on the market, you still have the option to restrict showings during the six or seven days around the Holidays.
8. January is traditionally the month for employees to begin new jobs. Since transfers cannot wait until Spring to buy, you need to be on the market during the Holidays to capture the market.
6. Buyers have more time to look for a home during the Holidays than they do during a work week.
5. Buyers are more emotional during the Holidays, so they are more likely to pay your price.
3. Since the supply of listings will dramatically increase in January, there will be less demand for your particular home. Less demand means more money for you.

Uber Reveals First Fully Autonomous Car in Partnership with Volvo
Uber wants to increase self-driving cars on the road by next year.
Uber has presented the latest member of its self driving car fleet at its annual Elevate conference.
The self-driving Volvo XC90 SUV is the first Uber vehicle designed without the need for a driver. The autonomous car was designed in collaboration with Swedish carmaker, Volvo.
Uber's self-driving car program was suspended in 2018 after an autonomous car, under human supervision hit and killed a pedestrian in Arizona.
SEE ALSO: UBER'S FIRST POST-IPO EARNINGS REPORT SHOWS THEY LOST ANOTHER $1 BILLION
The program is back in operation and Uber says that the new generation of self-driving cars will be hitting the roads in higher numbers from 2020. Currently, they are only being tested on public roads in Pittsburgh.
Volvo and Uber strike in robo-taxi war
"What it looks like from the outside isn't much different, but what's going on inside enables us to run our full autonomy system — things like 360 degrees of camera coverage, 360 degrees of LiDAR and radar," Uber ATG CEO Eric Meyhofer said at the Elevate Summit.
"These give the vehicle everything it needs in order to operate autonomously."
Uber will take the XC90 base vehicle and equip it with its own self-driving system, enabling the possible future deployment of self-driving cars in Uber's network as an autonomous ridesharing service.
An important feature of the XC90 is its comprehensive backup systems for both steering and braking function. The battery system is also equipped with a back up that ensures that the car can come to a safe and complete stop immediately, if any of the primary systems fail.
Volvo on board for safer roads
"We believe autonomous drive technology will allow us to further improve safety, the foundation of our company," said Håkan Samuelsson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Volvo Cars.
"By the middle of the next decade we expect one-third of all the cars we sell to be fully autonomous. Our agreement with Uber underlines our ambition to be the supplier of choice to the world's leading ride-hailing companies."
Volvo and Uber entered a partnership in 2016 and in 2017. Volvo signed a 'framework' agreement with Uber to sell a fleet of cars between 2019 and 2021.
Uber needs high end partners
"Working in close cooperation with companies like Volvo is a key ingredient to effectively building a safe, scalable, self-driving fleet," said Eric Meyhofer, CEO of Uber Advanced Technologies Group.
"Volvo has long been known for their commitment to safety, which is the cornerstone of their newest production-ready self-driving base vehicle. When paired with our self-driving technology, this vehicle will be a key ingredient in Uber's autonomous product suite."
Uber is pushing for a driver free future as one way for the company to become financially viable. The race is on for who will be able to launch an effective 'robo taxi' fleet first.
Waymo, another autonomous vehicle development company is testing heavily, despite a lot of push back from local communities.

Q: Using multi-table join with EF Core I'm trying to search the database for the following result:
public class PesquisaM1Dto
{
    public ColaboradorDto Colaborador { get; set; }
    public EmpresaDto Empresa { get; set; }
    public IReadOnlyList<ValorDto> Valor { get; set; }
    public IReadOnlyList<SetorDto> Setor { get; set; }

    public PesquisaM1Dto() { }
}

I'm trying with the following code:
var result = _dbContext.Empresas
                .Join(
                    _dbContext.Colaboradores,
                    empresa => empresa.Id,
                    colaborador => colaborador.IdEmpresa,
                    (empresa, colaborador) => new
                    {
                        colaborador,
                        empresa,
                    }
                )
                .Join(
                    _dbContext.Setores,
                    combinedEntry => combinedEntry.empresa.Id,
                    setor => setor.Id,
                    (combinedEntry, setor) => new
                    {
                        colaborador = combinedEntry.colaborador,
                        empresa = combinedEntry.empresa,
                        setores = setor
                    }
                )
                .FirstOrDefaultAsync(res => res.colaborador.Id == idColaborador && res.empresa.Id == idEmpresa);

But I can't return a list of Sectors or Values.

A: Why don't you use EF relations? The concept is simple and can save you time in development and scale your system.
I assume each of the models in PesquisaM1 have their own tables.
Update the Pesquisa model to include the relations:
public class PesquisaM1
{
    public PesquisaM1() { }
    public PesquisaM1()
    {
        Valors = new HashSet<Valor>();
        Setors = new HashSet<Setor>();
    }

    [Key]
    [Column("PesquisaM1Id")]
    [DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
    public Guid PesquisaM1Id { get; set; }

    public virtual Colaborador Colaborador { get; set; }
    public virtual Empresa Empresa { get; set; }
    public ICollection<Valor> Valors { get; set; }
    public ICollection<Setor> Setores { get; set; }
}

How to add relations an PesquisaM1 entity:
// Get the entity from db so that changes can be tracked.
var pesquisaM1 = await _dbContext.PesquisaM1Table
            .FirstAsync(x => x.PesquisaM1Id == pesquisaM1Id);

pesquisaM1.Colaborador = myColaborador;
pesquisaM1.Empresa = myEmpresa;
pesquisaM1.Valors.Add(myValor1);
pesquisaM1.Setores.Add(mySetor1);

await _dbContext.SaveChanges();

Query the data for PesquisaM1 with it's relation without the need of using join.
var result = _dbContext.PesquisaM1Table
                .Include(x => x.Colaborador)
                .Include(x => x.Empresa)
                .Include(x => x.Valors)
                .Include(x => x.Setores)
                .FirstAsync(x => x.PesquisaM1Id == pesquisaM1Id);

// eg. result.Setores will contain the list of setor

Life has been anything but boring these days.
Eric made our awesome wedding website back in '06 where we intended to make regular updates after the wedding and sadly, I never did. I think it was psychological thing…… Eric is the "blogger" so apparently the responsibility defaulted to him. I've never really imagined myself to be a blogger — just too much pressure, ya know? But somehow I see it differently now that I am moving far far away. I'll probably begin to see a lot of things differently.
Shalina offered to design me a blog and I love it. Thank you sister!
I had an incredible vacation last week visiting and saying goodbye to the Lee's up in Merced, my Reinhardt clan up in the Concord area and our "sweet-summer-shindig" with college friends up in Santa Rosa (a hop, skip and a jump away from the beautiful wine country in Napa Valley). Oh man, it was so fun. I didn't want to pass up this opportunity to have my first blog post be sharing pictures from our trip!
Dad & Denise drove us up to Calistoga for mud baths and a facial.
I love buildings like this!

\section{INTRODUCTION}
The properties of Quantum Chromodynamics(QCD) at finite temperature are a subject of general interest.
At zero temperature and zero chemical potential, the chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken. On the other hand, we expect that the chiral symmetry will be restored at sufficiently high temperature and it may be realized in high energy heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC. The restoration of the chiral symmetry is important also in physics of neutron stars and early universe.

Effective theories of QCD such as $\sigma$ model\cite{OGURE} and Nambu-Jona-Lasinio\cite{ASA} model or lattice QCD\cite{LAT} have been used in the study of the chiral phase transition and the related critical phenomena in QCD.
An effective potential and/or Schwinger-Dyson equation for quark propagator have been widely used to study the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and its restoration at finite temperature and/or finite chemical potential.

In this paper we study the chiral phase transition at finite temperature in the chiral limit.
We use the Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis(CJT) type effective potential\cite{CJT} for a composite operator in the framework of the renormalization group improved gauge theory(the so called QCD-like gauge theory)[5,6,7].
We take into account a correct asymptotic behavior of the quark self energy and use the variational method in calculating the effective potential.
The present approach does not break the chiral symmetry explicitly in contrast to some previous studies of the effective theories of QCD.
Using the effective potential we study the critical temperature and order of the chiral phase transition. If the transition is second order, we can calculate the critical exponents.
Rajagopal and Wilczek have studied the second order phase transition using three dimensional $O(4)$ Heisenberg model\cite{WIL}.
However it is still an open question whether QCD with two massless quarks and $O(4)$ Heisenberg model belong to the same universality class or not.
The critical exponents have been also studied using lattice QCD\cite{LAT}.

Furthermore, in previous studies of the effective theories which respect the QCD[9,10,11,12] it is not obvious whether the critical exponents agree with those of the mean field approximation a la Landau or not.
We numerically study the critical exponents of the order parameter for the chiral phase transition $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T$, the pion decay constant at finite temperature $f_{\pi}(T)$ and $a_2(T)$ which is the coefficient of the quadratic term in the effective potential.

This paper is organized as follows.
In Sec.2 we briefly review the effective potential for a composite operator in the QCD-like gauge theory.
In Sec.3 we calculate the effective potential at finite temperature.
In Sec.4 we present numerical results and determine the temperature dependence of $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle$ and $f_{\pi}$. We also estimate the critical exponents.
Sec.5 contains the summary and discussion.

\section{EFFECTIVE POTENTIAL AT ZERO TEMPERATURE}
In this paper we fix the mass scale by the condition $\Lambda_{QCD}=1$.
The CJT effective potential for the quark propagator takes the following form in Minkowski space:
\begin{eqnarray}
V[G,D]&=&\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4i}~\mbox{tr}\left(\ln (S^{-1}(p)G(p))-S^{-1}(p)G(p)+1\right)\nonumber\\
&&-\frac{i}{2}\int\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4i}~\frac{d^4q}{(2\pi)^4i}~g^2C_2\mbox{tr}\left(\gamma_{\mu}G(p)\gamma_{\nu}G(q)\right)D^{\mu\nu}(p-q),\label{eqn:vg}
\end{eqnarray}
where $C_2=(N_c^2-1)/(2N_c)$ is the quadratic Casimir operator for color $SU(N_c)$ group, $S(p)$ is the propagator of a massless quark, and $D^{\mu\nu}(p)$ is the gluon propagator in the Landau gauge:
\begin{eqnarray}
D^{\mu\nu}(p)=\frac{i}{p^2}(g^{\mu\nu}-\frac{p^{\mu}p^{\nu}}{p^2}),\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
which is diagonal in the color space and ``tr'' refers to Dirac, flavor and color matrices.
An alternative effective potential for composite operator which is a variation of Eq.(\ref{eqn:vg}) was developed in Ref.\cite{BAR1}. Here we use the one presented above.

In the Landau gauge and the one-loop approximation, we can expand the quark two-point function as follows
\begin{eqnarray}
iG^{-1}(p)=p\hspace{-0.19cm}/-(\Sigma_S(p^2)+i\gamma_5\Sigma_P(p^2)),\label{eqn:sp}
\end{eqnarray}
where $\Sigma_S(p)$ and $\Sigma_P(p)$ are the scalar part and the pseudo-scalar part of the quark dynamical mass function, respectively. Substituting (\ref{eqn:sp}) into (\ref{eqn:vg}) and using the running coupling in the two-loop level potential we obtain the following effective potential $V=V_1+V_2$ which satisfies the renormalization group equation after Wick rotation,
\begin{eqnarray}
V_1&=&-2N_fN_c\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}~\ln\frac{\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+\Sigma_P^2(p^2)+p^2}{p^2}\nonumber\\
&&+4N_fN_c\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}~\frac{\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+\Sigma_P^2(p^2)}{\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+\Sigma_P^2(p^2)+p^2},\label{eqn:vz1}
\end{eqnarray}
\begin{eqnarray}
V_2 &=& -6N_fN_cC_2\int\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}~\frac{d^4q}{(2\pi)^4}~\frac{{\bar g}^2(p,q)}{(p-q)^2}\nonumber\\
&\times&\frac{\Sigma_S(p^2)\Sigma_S(q^2)+\Sigma_P(p^2)\Sigma_P(q^2)}{(\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+\Sigma_P^2(p^2)+p^2)(\Sigma_S^2(q^2)+\Sigma_P^2(q^2)+q^2)},\label{eqn:vz2}
\end{eqnarray}
where $N_f$ is the number of the light flavors.
This expression is our starting point.
The order parameter can be determined by the condition
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{\delta V}{\delta \Sigma_S(p^2)}=0~~,~~\frac{\delta V}{\delta \Sigma_P(p^2)}=0.\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
These extremum conditions for $V$ with respect to $\Sigma_S(p^2)$ and $\Sigma_P(p^2)$ are equivalent to the Schwinger-Dyson equations for the quark propagator in the improved ladder approximation.
We take $\Sigma_P(p^2)=0$ without loss of generality because of the chiral symmetry.
We use Higashijima-Miransky approximation[5,6] for the running coupling with an infrared modification\cite{HIG91}
\begin{eqnarray}
{\bar g}^2(p,q)\rightarrow{\bar e}^2(\max(p^2,q^2))\label{eqn:HMA},
\end{eqnarray}
where
\begin{equation}
{\bar e}^2(p^2)=\frac{2\pi^2a}{\ln(p^2+p_R^2)}\label{eqn:coup}.
\end{equation}
Here, $a=24/(11N_c-2n_f)$, $n_f$ is the number of flavors which controls the running coupling, and $p_R$ is a parameter to regularize the divergence at $p=1(\Lambda_{QCD})$.
The modified running coupling has the same asymptotic behavior as the QCD running coupling, while it gradually approaches a constant as $p^2$ decreases. The value of the running coupling at $p=0$ is $2\pi^2a/t_R$, where $t_R=\ln (p_R^2)$ is the infrared regularization parameter.

As ${\bar e}^2(\max(p^2,q^2))$ has no angle dependence in four-dimensional Euclidean space, Eqs.(\ref{eqn:vz1}) and (\ref{eqn:vz2}) are reduced to
\begin{eqnarray}
V_1[\Sigma_S] &=& 4N_fN_c\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}~\frac{\Sigma_S^2(p^2)}{\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+p^2}\nonumber\\&&-2N_fN_c\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}~\ln\frac{\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+p^2}{p^2},\label{eqn:v1}\\
V_2[\Sigma_S] &=& -12N_fN_cC_2\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}~\frac{{\bar e}^2(p^2)}{p^2}~\frac{\Sigma_S(p^2)}{\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+p^2}\nonumber\\
&&\times\int_{p^2>q^2}\frac{d^4q}{(2\pi)^4}~\frac{\Sigma_S(q^2)}{\Sigma_S^2(q^2)+q^2}.\label{eqn:v2}
\end{eqnarray}

In this paper we consider the case where the chiral symmetry is exact, i.e. renormalized current quark masses are zero.
We use the variational method to investigate the vacuum of the QCD-like theory and use the following form for $\Sigma_S(p)$ as a trial mass function\cite{HIG91}:
\begin{equation}
\Sigma_S(p^2)=-\langle {\bar q}q\rangle~\frac{2\pi^2a}{3(p^2+p_R^2)}(\ln (p^2+p_R^2))^{\frac{12}{33-2n_f}-1},\label{eqn:s2}
\end{equation}
where $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle$ is the renormalization group invariant vacuum expectation value of ${\bar q}q$.
This form was chosen so that its asymptotic form
\begin{eqnarray}
\Sigma_S(p^2) \rightarrow -\langle {\bar q}q\rangle~\frac{2\pi^2a}{3p^2}(\ln p^2)^{\frac{12}{33-2n_f}-1}.\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
coincides with the one obtained by using the operator product expansion and the renormalization group equation\cite{POL76}. This form of dynamical mass function does not break the chiral symmetry explicitly, i.e. the axial vector current is conserved\footnote{We note, however, it was found\cite{MUN} that the chiral Ward-Takahashi identity is violated unless gluon momentum squared is used as the argument for the running coupling. The solution to recover the chiral Ward-Takahashi identity in the framework of the improved ladder approximation was given in Ref.\cite{KUGO92}}.

\section{EFFECTIVE POTENTIAL AT FINITE TEMPERATURE}

We apply the imaginary time formalism\cite{JIK} to calculate the effective potential at finite temperature.
Since fermion fields obey an anti-periodic boundary condition, we have
\begin{eqnarray}
p_4 \rightarrow \omega_n=(2n+1)\pi T, \label{eqn:im1}
\end{eqnarray}
and the four-momentum integration is replaced with the summation over the Matsubara-frequency $\omega_n$ and the three-momentum integration
\begin{eqnarray}
\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}\rightarrow T\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int\frac{d{\vec p}}{(2\pi)^3}\label{eqn:im2}
\end{eqnarray}
in Eqs.(\ref{eqn:v1}) and (\ref{eqn:v2}).
Now we have
\begin{eqnarray}
V_1&=&4N_fN_cT\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int\frac{d{\vec p}}{(2\pi)^3}~\frac{\Sigma_S^2(\omega_n,{\vec p})}{\Sigma_S^2(\omega_n,{\vec p})+Q_n^2}\nonumber\\
&&-2N_fN_cT\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int\frac{d{\vec p}}{(2\pi)^3}~\ln\left(1+\frac{\Sigma_S^2(\omega_n,{\vec p})}{Q_n^2}\right),\label{eqn:v11}
\end{eqnarray}
\begin{eqnarray}
V_2&=&-12N_fN_cC_2T\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int\frac{d{\vec p}}{(2\pi)^3}~\frac{{\bar e}^2(\omega_n,{\vec p})}{Q_n^2}~\frac{\Sigma_S(\omega_n,{\vec p})}{\Sigma_S^2(\omega_n,{\vec p})+Q_n^2}\nonumber\\
&&\times T\sum\nolimits_m\hspace{-0.78cm}\int~~\frac{d{\vec q}}{(2\pi)^3}~\frac{\Sigma_S(\omega_m,{\vec q})}{\Sigma_S^2(\omega_m,{\vec q})+Q_m^2},\label{eqn:v12}
\end{eqnarray}
where $Q_n^2=\omega_n^2+{\vec p}^2$, $Q_m^2=\omega_m^2+{\vec q}^2$, and
\begin{eqnarray}
\sum\nolimits_m\hspace{-0.78cm}\int~~\frac{d{\vec q}}{(2\pi)^3}\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
denotes the summation over $m$ and integration over ${\vec q}$ with the condition $Q_n^2 > Q_m^2$ and we have replaced $\bar{e}^2(p^2)$ and $\Sigma_S(p^2)$ with $\bar{e}^2(\omega_n,\vec{p})$ and $\Sigma_S(\omega_n,\vec{p})$, respectively. Their functional forms are given below.

Let us now consider the choice for the running coupling and the quark dynamical mass function at finite temperature. We expect that the running coupling decreases as the temperature increases. Usually a coupling of the form like
\begin{eqnarray}
g^2(T)=\frac{2\pi^2a}{\ln(T^2/M^2)}\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
is used.
However we use a running form
\begin{eqnarray}
{\bar e}^2(\omega_n,\vec p)=\frac{2\pi^2a}{\ln(\omega_n^2+{\vec p}^2+p_R^2)},\label{eqn:fe}
\end{eqnarray}
as a natural extension of the $T=0$ case(Eq.(\ref{eqn:coup})).

As concerns the dynamical mass function, we use the following function
\begin{eqnarray}
\Sigma_S(\omega_n,{\vec p})=-\langle {\bar q}q\rangle\frac{2\pi^2a}{3(\omega_n^2+{\vec p}^{~2}+p_R^2)}\left(\ln(\omega_n^2+{\vec p}^{~2}+p_R^2)\right)^{\frac{12}{33-2n_f}-1},\label{eqn:fq}
\end{eqnarray}
by replacing $p^2$ with $\omega_n^2+\vec{p}^2$ also in Eq.(\ref{eqn:s2}).
Here, $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle$ is the variational parameter of the effective potential and its value is determined from the minimum of the potential.
Note that the chiral symmetry is not explicitly broken by the choice Eq.(\ref{eqn:fq}).

Using the effective potential in Eqs.(\ref{eqn:v11}) and (\ref{eqn:v12}) with the ansatz Eq.(\ref{eqn:fe}), Eq.(\ref{eqn:fq}) and changing the variables
\begin{eqnarray}
t&=&\ln(\omega_n^2+{\vec p}^2+p_R^2),\nonumber\\
t_n&=&\ln(\omega_n^2+p_R^2),\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
we obtain
\begin{eqnarray}
V(\sigma,T)=V_1(\sigma,T)+V_2(\sigma,T),\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
\begin{eqnarray}
V_1(\sigma,T)&=&\frac{4N_fN_cT\sigma^2}{(2\pi)^2}\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int_{t_n}^{\infty}dt~\sqrt{e^t-e^{t_n}}~\frac{e^{-2t}}{t^{2-a}(1-e^{t_R-t})+\sigma^2e^{-3t}}\nonumber\\&&-\frac{2N_fN_cT}{(2\pi)^2}\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int_{t_n}^{\infty}dt~e^t\sqrt{e^t-e^{t_n}}~\ln\left(1+\frac{\sigma^2 e^{-3t}}{t^{2-a}(1-e^{t_R-t})}\right),\label{eqn:fv1}
\end{eqnarray}
\begin{eqnarray}
V_2(\sigma,T)&=&-\frac{8N_fN_caT^2\sigma^2}{(2\pi)^2}\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int_{t_n}^{\infty}dt~\frac{\sqrt{e^t-e^{t_n}}}{1-e^{t_R-t}}~\frac{t^{-a/2}e^{-2t}}{t^{2-a}(1-e^{t_R-t})+\sigma^2e^{-3t}}\nonumber\\
&&\times\sum_m {}^{'}\int_{t_m}^t du~\sqrt{e^{u}-e^{t_m}}~\frac{u^{1-a/2}e^{-u}}{u^{2-a}(1-e^{t_R-u})+\sigma^2e^{-3u}},
\end{eqnarray}
where $\sigma=2\pi^2a\langle {\bar q}q\rangle/3$ is the rescaled order parameter.
The sum over $m$, $\sum_m {}^{'}$, is taken to an extent that $t>u$.

In order to determine the critical temperature $T_c$, we expand the effective potential as a power series of the order parameter with finite coefficients $a_{2n}(T)$
\begin{eqnarray}
V(\sigma,T)=a_2(T)\sigma^2+O(\sigma^4).
\end{eqnarray}
The coefficient $a_2(T)$ is calculated as follows
\begin{eqnarray}
a_2(T)&=&\frac{dV}{d\sigma^2}\bigg{|}_{\sigma^2=0}\nonumber\\
&=&\frac{2N_fN_cT}{(2\pi)^2}\left[\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int_{t_n}^{\infty}dt~\sqrt{e^t-e^{t_n}}~\frac{e^{-2t}}{t^{2-a}(1-e^{t_R-t})}\right.\nonumber\\
&&\left.-4Ta\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int_{t_n}^{\infty}dt~\sqrt{e^t-e^{t_n}}~\frac{t^{a/2-2}e^{-2t}}{(1-e^{t_R-t})^2}\sum_m {}^{'}\int_{t_m}^t du~\sqrt{e^{u}-e^{t_m}}~\frac{u^{a/2-1}e^{-u}}{1-e^{t_R-u}}\right].
\end{eqnarray}
The critical temperature $T_c$ is determined by the condition, $a_2(T_c)=0$.

\section{NUMERICAL RESULTS}
\subsection{The Behavior of the Effective Potential at Finite Temperature}
In our calculation we put $N_f=2$, $N_c=3$ and $n_f=3$.
We use the three flavor($n_f=3$) running coupling since three flavors(u,d,s) contribute to the running coupling in the energy region of the chiral phase transition.
Since it has been shown that the quantities such as $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle$ and $f_\pi$ are not sensitive to the infrared regularization parameter $t_R$ at zero temperature\cite{HIG91}, we expect that these quantities are insensitive to $t_R$ also at finite temperature as long as $t_R$ is not too large.
In Fig.1 we plot the $t_R$ dependence of the value of $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle$, the location of minimum, the pion decay constant $f_{\pi}$ which is approximately given by the Pagels-Stoker formula\cite{PS}:
\begin{eqnarray}
f_{\pi}^2=4N_c\int\frac{d^4p}{(2\pi)^4}~\frac{\Sigma_S(p^2)}{(\Sigma_S^2(p^2)+p^2)^2}\left(\Sigma_S(p^2)-\frac{p^2}{2}\frac{d\Sigma_S(p^2)}{dp^2}\right)\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
and the constituent quark mass $m$ defined by the relation, $m=\Sigma_S(p^2=4m^2)$.
The fact that these values are insensitive to the infrared cutoff at zero temperature has been also pointed out by Kugo {\it et al}\cite{KUGO92} who used the Schwinger-Dyson equation in the improved ladder approximation.
Therefore we fix the infrared regularization parameter $t_R$ to $0.1$.
In Fig.2 we show that at zero temperature the approximate form of the dynamical mass function $\Sigma_S(p)$ at the minimum of $V$ well reproduces the exact solution of the Schwinger-Dyson equation. Therefore we adopt Eq.(\ref{eqn:fq}) as a trial function and use $\sigma$ as a variational parameter at finite temperature.
We have confirmed that the quantities such as $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T$ and $f_\pi(T)$ are insensitive to the infrared regularization parameter $t_R$ at finite temperature.

The effective potential at finite temperature is shown in Fig.3.
At zero temperature the chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken. As temperature grows the minimum of the potential continuously approaches zero. Hence we have second order phase transition at $T=0.185(\Lambda_{QCD})$. To determine the value of $\Lambda_{QCD}$ we use the Pagels-Stoker formula and fix the pion decay constant $f_{\pi}$ to $93$ MeV at zero temperature and have $\Lambda_{QCD}=737$MeV.
Then the restoration of the chiral symmetry occurs at $T_c=136$MeV.

The temperature dependence of the order parameter $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T$ is shown in Fig.4.
As concerns the temperature dependence of $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T$
we refer, for example, to that of the free pion gas approximation:
\begin{eqnarray}
\frac{\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T}{\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_0}=1-\frac{T^2}{8f_{\pi}^2}.\label{eqn:cpt}
\end{eqnarray}
This behavior is also shown in Fig.4 and there is a slight difference between our result and Eq.(\ref{eqn:cpt}) in the low temperature region.

Once the quark dynamical mass function is determined from the minimum of the effective potential, we can calculate the pion decay constant $f_{\pi}$ at finite temperature using the Pagels-Stoker formula extended to finite temperature:
\begin{eqnarray}
f_{\pi}(T)^2=4N_cT\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\int\frac{d{\vec p}}{(2\pi)^3}~\frac{\Sigma_S(\omega_n,\vec p)}{(\Sigma_S^2(\omega_n,\vec p)+Q_n^2)^2}\left(\Sigma_S(\omega_n,\vec p)-\frac{Q_n^2}{2}~\frac{d\Sigma_S(\omega_n,\vec p)}{dQ_n^2}\right),\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
where $Q_n^2=\omega_n^2+{\vec p}^2$. The behavior of $f_{\pi}(T)$ is shown in Fig.5.

\subsection{Critical Exponents}

Since we have a second order phase transition, we can estimate the critical exponents. To estimate the critical exponents we define the reduced temperature $\tau$ and exponents $\beta$, $\gamma$ and $\beta'$ as follows:
\begin{eqnarray}
\tau&=&\frac{T_c-T}{T_c}~~~(T<T_c),\nonumber\\
|\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T | &\sim& \tau^{\beta},\nonumber\\
|a_2(T)| &\sim& \tau^{\gamma},\nonumber\\
f_{\pi}(T) &\sim& \tau^{\beta'}.\label{eqn:exp}
\end{eqnarray}

In the spin system the exponent $\gamma$ is defined for the magnetic susceptibility $\chi(T)$. In case of the chiral phase transition, $\chi(T)$ is defined as
\begin{eqnarray}
\chi(T)=\frac{\partial \langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T}{\partial m_0}\bigg{|}_{m_0=0},\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
where $m_0$ is the current quark mass. Our exponent $\gamma$ agrees with that of the magnetic susceptibility, if the effect of the finite current mass near $T_c$ is represented as
\begin{eqnarray}
V(\sigma,m_0,T) \sim a_2(T)\sigma^2+b(T)m_0\sigma,\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
and, furthermore, if $b(T)$ does not have a singular behavior.

In Landau theory of second order phase transition, the assumption that $\gamma=1$ leads to $\beta=1/2$. In Ref.\cite{BAR2} they study the critical exponents within the Landau theory. In general $\gamma$ deviates from 1. So we first examine the critical exponent $\gamma$ for three cases of the infrared regularization parameter $t_R=0.05,0.1,0.15$. We determine the exponent $\gamma$ from a slope of the linear log fit
\begin{eqnarray}
\ln |a_2(T)|=\gamma\ln \tau+C,\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
where $C$ is independent of $\tau$. In order to extract the exponent we use the $\chi^2$ fitting(see Fig.6) and have
\begin{eqnarray}
   \gamma\,=\,\left(
                 \begin{array}{c}
                  1.032 \pm 0.006\\
                  1.008 \pm 0.001\\
                  1.041 \pm 0.008
                 \end{array}
                 \right) &\;&
   \mbox{for}~t_R\,=\,\left(
               \begin{array}{c}
                0.05\\
                0.10\\
                0.15
               \end{array}
               \right)\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
These results are consistent with the Landau theory.

In the same way(see Fig.7) we determine the exponents $\beta$ for $t_R=0.1$ and have
\begin{eqnarray}
\beta=0.455 \pm 0.008, \nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
which is appreciably different from the Landau theory.

Next, let us estimate $\beta'$.
We used the Pagels-Stoker formula and Eq.(\ref{eqn:fq}) for calculating $f_{\pi}(T)$, thus we have
\begin{eqnarray}
f_{\pi}(T)=|\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T|G(\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T,T).\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
We have checked numerically that $G(\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T,T)$ is free from the singular behavior in the limit $\tau \rightarrow 0$. It follows that the behavior of $f_{\pi}(T)$ near $T_c$ is the same as that of the condensate:
\begin{eqnarray}
f_{\pi}(T) \sim \tau^{\beta}.
\end{eqnarray}
Thus we have $\beta'=\beta=0.455$.
The same analysis can be repeated for the exponent of the mass gap $\Sigma_S(n=0,\vec{p}=0)$.
As far as we use Eq.(\ref{eqn:fq}) as a trial mass function, the exponent of the mass gap agrees with the exponent $\beta$.

Note that we use Eq.(\ref{eqn:exp}) to evaluate the critical exponents.
As a rule, for $D>4$ ($D=$ dimension of space-time) one obtains the universal prediction of the mean field theory. However, for $D<4$ the infrared divergences which appears in the coefficients of the power series expansion invalidate the predictions of the mean field theory\cite{JZJ}. Here we are interested in the case of $D=4$, which is critical.
Although our results are well fitted by Eq.(\ref{eqn:exp}), there may be logarithmic corrections to the power behavior assumed in Eq.(\ref{eqn:exp}).

\section{SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION}

In summary, we studied the chiral phase transition at finite temperature in the QCD-like gauge theory.
We made use of the CJT effective potential in the improved ladder approximation and took account of the logarithmic behavior in the quark dynamical mass function.
In QCD-like gauge theory it has been pointed out that at zero temperature the physical quantities such as $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle$, $f_{\pi}$ and $m$ are quite stable under a change of the infrared cutoff. We confirmed that the temperature dependence of these quantities are also stable under a change of $t_R$(see also Ref.\cite{SD}).
Then we put $t_R=0.1$ and investigated the temperature dependence of the effective potential and found the second order phase transition at $T_c=0.185\Lambda_{QCD}$.
We fixed the value of the pion decay constant $f_\pi$ to 93MeV at zero temperature and had $\Lambda_{QCD}=737$MeV, therefore we obtained $T_c=136$MeV. We also examined the temperature dependence of $\langle {\bar q}q\rangle_T$ and $f_\pi(T)$.

As we have the second order phase transition, we calculated the critical exponents $\gamma$ and $\beta$ which are the exponents of the quadratic term of the effective potential and the order parameter, respectively.
We examined $\gamma$ for three cases of the infrared regularization parameter and found $\gamma \sim 1$. This result is consistent with the Landau theory.
However we found that $\beta(=0.455 \pm 0.008)$ appreciably deviates from the value of the Landau theory $1/2$.
Our approach is somewhat related to the mean field approximation.
However we have introduced the logarithmic behavior in the quark dynamical mass function.
This may be one of the main reasons that $\beta$ deviates from the Landau theory. Our results are different from $O(4)$ Heisenberg model.
We also calculated the exponents of $f_{\pi}(T)$ and $\Sigma_S(n=0,\vec{p}=0)$ and they coincided with $\beta$.

In calculating the temperature dependence of several quantities related to the chiral phase transition and estimating the critical exponents, the effective potential and/or the Schwinger-Dyson equation with a variety of approximation have been used[9,10,11,12].
In Ref.\cite{BAR2} they have used a variety of CJT effective potential, which is modified by using Schwinger-Dyson equation in Eq.(\ref{eqn:vg}), and the trial mass function without logarithmic behavior. However they have discussed the critical phenomena within a Landau theory.
In Ref.\cite{ALK} they have used the Coulomb gauge Schwinger-Dyson equation with an instantaneous approximation and have found $\beta=0.49$.
In recent work based on the confining Schwinger-Dyson equation\cite{CDR}, it has been found that $\beta=0.46 \pm 0.04$.
On the other hand, in Ref.\cite{SD} they have used the Schwinger-Dyson equation in the improved ladder approximation and have found that $\beta=0.171$.
Although their model is in the same framework as ours, however, this value largely deviates from the Landau theory and our result.
We calculate the effective potential by using the trial mass function, while the authors of Ref.\cite{SD} solved the Schwinger-Dyson equation.
Furthermore, there are important differences in the handling of the gluon propagator at finite temperature and in the choice of the argument of the running coupling, they used $\bar{g}^2(p,q)=\bar{g}^2(p^2+q^2)$.

In this paper, we have obtained a large value of $\Lambda_{QCD}$. This may be partly due to the fact that we did not consider the effect of the color confinement.
In fact, in Ref.\cite{SASAKI}, they have used an observed value of $\Lambda_{QCD}$ to reproduce the pion decay constant.

As mentioned in Sec.IV, some critical exponents are defined in relation to the current quark mass.
Therefore, it is very interesting to generalize our model to the case of a finite current mass and to study the critical exponents and the scaling relations.

I've been playing music my whole life. I picked up the guitar at age 8 and became obsessed with guys like John Lee Hooker and Elmore James. Over the next ten years I spent most of my time looking for music that would speed up my heart rate. Neil Young was the turning point. After I heard Rust Never Sleeps I abandoned what I thought I knew about rock and roll. It opened up my mind to everything else, and I spent any money I had on records.
In high school I formed a band, The Ramble, with my younger brother and my two best friends. We were constantly changing styles of music and instruments from song to song. We started out playing straight rock and roll covers by guys like Eddie Cochran and The Clash. It got really special when we started writing our own stuff. Our first original was called Devil's Train. Our lead guitarist Thomas Cliplef had written this bizarre melody. I threw a very loud bending harmonica note over top of it, and we felt like we were on our way. I spent 5 years in that band and we made some music I will be proud of the rest of my life.
After The Ramble broke up I wanted something different. I wanted to be able to play anywhere, at anytime, and not have to worry about what other people were doing. I decided to go about it more like Woody Guthrie than Joe Strummer. If other people come in and out that's great, but it's not needed. Once in a while I miss playing my loud rock and roll, then I throw on some Mississippi Skeiks and think "oh yeah, this shits cool too."

Kupwara Missing Trio: Our Investigation Reveals Army is Involved, says Hurriyat (g)
6:50 pm February 1, 2016
Expressing its deep concern and anguish over the disappearance of three civilians of Dardpora Kupwara since November 2015, All Parties Hurriyat Conference (g) Monday demanded impartial investigation into this incident and locating these missing persons.
"Hurriyat doubts the police and army version in which they had said that the trio had crossed over to Azad Kashmir," Hurriyat Conference (g) said in a statement issued this evening.
"According to the preliminary investigation about the three civilians, conducted by the pro-freedom forum, all the fingers of doubt points towards the Indian army and it is believed that the army has kept them in their custody or they have been killed in any fake encounter," the Hurriyat Conference statement alleged.
"The personal character and the activities of the three missing persons also indicate that there are no possibilities that they could have thought of crossing the cease fire line. Hurriyat is of the view that the police and army under a planned manner tried to create an impression that the three persons have crossed over to other side of the bloody line. This is actually an attempt to divert the attention of the people who are demanding investigation into this incident and its purpose could be the protection of the culprits," the statement said.
Giving examples of the Machhil Fake Encounter and hundreds of "such incidents", Hurriyat Conference (g) said, "the direct involvement of the Indian army have been proved in all the missing episodes of the people living in border areas and the killing in the fake encounters cases so far. For the promotions and medals, the army officers continue to kill common civilians and then present them as militants."
Hurriyat also questioned the "character" of the Territorial Army personnel who was reportedly in contact with the three persons till they got missing. "The same character was found in Machhil Fake Encounter who was used by the Indian army as a middle man to trap the civilians."
While demanding impartial investigation into the missing case of Dardpora by some independent agency, Hurriyat Conference (g) said, "the army and the police are trying to hush-up the matter so the local as well as the international human rights organizations are duty bound to take notice of this incident and use their influence to locate the trio."

8 Major Ways Meghan Markle Has Already Broken Royal Protocol
She broke a few traditions on her and Harry's wedding day.
By Mehera Bonner and Alex Warner
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are married (it's official and FYI her dress was beyond gorgeous), and they are 100 percent the most chill and relatable royal couple out there. While the pair have been sticking to plenty of traditions (letting Kensington Palace announce their engagement...doing a formal photo shoot), their relationship has also broken royal protocol plenty of times, especially, today, on their wedding day.
She and Harry got married on a Saturday
Royal weddings are traditionally held on weekdays, and then that day is granted a national bank holiday. Kate Middleton and Prince William were married on April 29, 2011, which was a Friday. Since Harry and Meghan chose to get married on a Saturday, May 19, is not a day off of work for British citizens.
She and Harry's wedding cake wasn't fruit cake
In March, Kensington Palace announced that Claire Ptak would be making Meghan and Harry's wedding cake. As for the flavor, the Palace tweeted, "Prince Harry and Ms. Markle have asked Claire to create a lemon elderflower cake that will incorporate the bright flavours of spring. It will be covered with buttercream and decorated with fresh flowers." Yum!
However, it's an age-old tradition that an special royal occasion—whether it's a wedding or a christening—is celebrated with fruitcake, a dessert made with candied or dried fruits, nuts, and spices. Despite being made with lemons, Meghan and Harry's cake doesn't quite make the cut.
The wedding cake is to be served at the Reception. It was designed by Claire Ptak and features elderflower syrup made at The Queen's residence in Sandringham from the estate's own elderflower trees, as well as a light sponge cake uniquely formulated for the couple. #royalwedding pic.twitter.com/kt5lE4tEn9

She Chatted About Her Love for Harry in a Major Magazine
A post shared by Vanity Fair (@vanityfair)
In a move that is *completely* unprecedented for royals, Meghan covered Vanity Fair and spoke at length about her relationship with Harry—before they were engaged. "I can tell you that at the end of the day I think it's really simple," she said. "We're two people who are really happy and in love. We were very quietly dating for about six months before it became news. And I was working during that whole time, and the only thing that changed was people's perception. Nothing about me changed. I'm still the same person that I am, and I've never defined myself by my relationship."
It's not *completely* foreign territory for a royal to agree to a magazine cover (Kate Middleton was in British Vogue), but to open up about her private life with Harry pre-engagement and in such an official manner was gasp-inducing.
She and Harry Literally Wouldn't Stop Holding Hands
As we know from William and Kate, holding hands in public is not allowed when you're a royal:
But Prince Harry and Meghan Markle broke this unspoken rule during their joint appearance at Toronto's Invictus Games, where they were spotted holding hands/being each other's lobsters. FYI, the reason royals aren't allowed to hold hands is because they are (per royal etiquette Myka Meier), "working representatives of British Monarchy."
She's Been Married Before
Before dating Harry, Meghan was in a relationship with producer Trevor Engelson. They got divorced in August 2013, and now he's making a show about a man who has to share custody of his child after his ex marries a British royal. SIDE EYES. Per Deadline, this is the cringe-inducing plot: "Divorce is hard. Sharing custody is harder. Sharing custody with the British Royal family when your wife marries a prince, in the unforgiving spotlight of London's tabloid media, is next level."
FYI, marrying someone who's been divorced is no longer a problem for the British monarchy, but it's definitely unusual—lest you forget, Princess Margaret had to break off her relationship with Peter Townsend because he was divorced, and Edward VIII had to straight up abdicate in order to marry Wallis Simpson.
She Didn't Belong to the Church of England
Obviously, British royals are tolerant of all religions, but being a member of The Church of England is definitely the norm—and per People, "in order to remain in the line of succession, members of the royal family cannot be Catholic." This won't effect Meghan thanks to laws changing in 2013, which allow people in the line of succession to marry whoever they want regardless of religious affiliation. Meghan reportedly went to Catholic school, but in March she was baptized into the Church of England, perhaps as a sign of respect for the Queen.
She's Wearing an All-Diamond Ring
While diamonds certainly aren't unusual when it comes to engagement rings, the royals tend to favor gem stones. Princess Diana's ring (and now Kate Middleton's) features a sapphire, as does the engagement ring of The Queen Mother, and that of Princess Anne. Meanwhile Sarah Ferguson was given a ruby ring, as was Princess Margaret.
10 Things We Learned from the Royal Jeweler
She's an Actress and Very Much in the Public Eye
In case you hadn't noticed, Meghan isn't a royal. She's an actress in the public eye, most famous for Suits. She also isn't a member of a posh British family like Kate Middleton is. Basically, she's a completely normal woman, and in this way—more than anything else—she's breaking the royal mold.

For non–ventilated air temperature measurements at weather stations, both ambient wind speed and solar radiation are known to affect the magnitude of air temperature measurement errors. The objective of this study is to explore the effect of the sensor's housing and to quantify any stagnation or conduction errors. The HMP45C temperature and relative humidity sensor with a Gill radiation shield is widely used in remote monitoring sites. The use of a filter in the HMP45C leads to loss of ventilation, while the protrusion of the sensor housing below the Gill shield exposes it to radiation loading and potentially increased conduction of heat to the sensor. The HMP45C sensors were deployed with and without an air filter in both standard Gill shields and in a Gill shield modified with extra plates to completely cover the base of the sensor housing. The data collected were examined using spectral analysis and statistical methods. Results show that both average air temperature errors and variations of air temperature errors were smaller in the HMP45C sensors when the manufacturer–supplied air filter was removed. The ranges of the three–sigma errors can be decreased by 0.4°C to 0.7°C and the accuracy of monthly average air temperature can be improved at least 0.1°C by employing an HMP45C without the air filter. Results suggest that the maximum air temperature taken with the filter may reach more than 1.0°C higher than that taken without the filter. The major frequency component contributing to air temperature errors using the HMP45C sensor in the Gill shield is the frequency of one day per cycle, which is expected. Partial radiation blocking combined with aspiration significantly reduces the contribution of the one–day cycle. In field tests, the R. M. Young aspirated temperature system proved very accurate compared to an aspirated precision industrial platinum resistance thermometer (PRT).

"We reviewed and did exercises on word problems, including rated and geometric applications. She showed me some long division and I showed her some factor-related tricks for converting to fractions to decimals. We ended with a timed practice math section."
"For this session, both students focused on practicing problems focusing on the mathematics portion of the exam. We practiced pacing themselves during the exam as well as practicing problems dealing with probability, quantitative comparison and word problems. They are extremely knowledgeable of the material and should excel during these practice sessions. "
"We reviewed her test results. I sent questions for her to practice in math. I had her to retake the test and her. She went from the 20 percentile to 93%."
"I met with both students and learned a bit about what subjects they like and what they do outside of school. I then timed them on the vocabulary section of each test. We went through one question at a time and I described every word they did not know using examples or other synonyms. At the end I wrote down each word they had trouble with for reviewing later."
"Today we focused on the student's writing and reading comprehension. She wrote a sample essay explaining why reading is her favorite subject in school, and she was able to articulate a number of sophisticated ideas with ease. We discussed how to write a clear essay with interesting points that support a larger thesis. After our writing lesson, we moved onto Reading Comprehension. In this section, her mistakes typically fall into one of three categories: she does not know the meaning of a vocabulary word, she has read a question too hastily, or she is thrown off by a question which sounds like it is asking for an opinion. We spent the balance of our time working on strategies to overcome these three difficulties when they come up. "


Does Your Commercial HVAC Boiler Need to be Serviced?
When cooler weather hits, many building owners are focused on boiler performance to keep the property sufficiently heated. So, do you really need ongoing boiler service? The short answer is yes. However, we know simply hearing a professional tell you that a service is important isn't going to be enough. That's why we're reviewing boiler service for commercial HVAC systems in North Carolina and Virginia and why it's a vital part of an ongoing HVAC maintenance program.
What does the boiler do?
It may sound fundamental, but a some commercial building owners may not in great detail what the boiler is and what it does for the building.
At its most basic level, a commercial boiler is a pressurized system that uses combustible fuel or electricity to heat water and/or steam, which is then circulated throughout a building for heating purposes.
In older systems, radiators and similar equipment may fill with the heated water, dissipating the heat through radiation, before circulating it back through the heating system and into the boiler to be reheated as needed. More modern systems that work on similar principles include forced hot air (in which air that is heated by means of contact with the system's heating elements or hot water pipes) and radiant heating in the floor, ceiling, or walls.
Where would you be without a boiler?
Obviously, the boiler is a vital component of your heating system. Without a boiler, there is no heat.
But, it's more common to face a boiler that's running inefficiently or slowly declining due to age or condition, rather than a boiler that's completely down. In this case, the boiler is likely costing you more money than it should, because it's not using your fuel efficiently. It may also not be heating the building as it should, leading to tenant complaints and even property damage, depending on circumstances.
How much does it cost to replace a commercial boiler?
Since it's such an integral part of your building's HVAC system, replacing a commercial boiler is not cheap.
Replacements generally cost anywhere from $6,000 to $30,000 as a broad range. Then, there's installation costs to consider. While no boiler is going to last forever, taking whatever action you can to keep your boiler in good condition is a valuable investment.
How can you extend the life of your commercial boiler?
The best way to get the most value out of your commercial boiler and helps control energy costs is to have your boiler regularly inspected and serviced from the day it's installed to the day it's eventually replaced.
A planned maintenance program (including routine inspections, cleaning, testing, and proactive repairs or replacements) throughout the entire life of the boiler is the smartest way to go about this. A trained professional HVAC technician from a reputable HVAC service company will perform all necessary maintenance activities on a predetermined schedule that's customized to your unique facility, equipment, and usage patterns. Since they'll be back several times throughout the year, this lets them catch unexpected repair or replacement needs before they turn into serious failures or cause harm to other system components.
If you'd like to discuss setting up a planned maintenance program to make sure your commercial boiler in North Carolina, South Carolina, or Virginia lasts as long as possible, we're here to talk with you. To learn more about this service, review a sample annual schedule here or contact us today.

Depending on your personal needs, we may use a local anesthesia, mild sedative or a numbing spray for your dermabrasion treatment. Depending on how large the area to be treated is, treatment may last only a few minutes or up to an hour.
Dr. Chan will begin by scraping away the outermost layer of the skin with a wire brush attached to a motorized handle. Afterwards, he will apply a wet dressing to moisturize the treated skin.
What Can I Expect After Dermabrasion?
Following dermabrasion, your skin will be red and you may experience pain, swelling, burning or aching. You will notice scabs/crusts forming over your skin—this will flake away to reveal your new skin over the course of several days. To ensure proper healing, be sure to carefully follow the instructions Dr. Chan gives you.
Most patients return to work after a week or two, and active sports should be avoided for about 3 weeks. Be sure to protect your skin from the sun until you are completely healed—up to 6 months.
Call today to schedule your dermabrasion consultation with Dr. Chan in Portland.

As the fallout from the Yahoo! Sports report on widespread NCAA violations at the University of Miami continues, an interesting and somewhat disturbing note came to light regarding Miami's lack of candor with new head coach Al Golden.
Miami, although aware of Nevin Shapiro's allegations a year ago, said nothing to Golden when he was hired. Golden, a rising star in the coaching ranks, had no idea that Miami was involved in this scandal, which spans nine years, implicates 72 players, and involves millions of dollars.
"If they knew this was percolating, I believe they had a responsibility to tell me and to tell [athletic director] Shawn [Eichorst]," said Golden.
In fact, Miami may have had a legal duty to inform Golden of the allegations made by Shapiro, besides the fact that it would have been the right thing to do. Nevertheless, Golden says that he is happy to be in Miami and appears willing to ride out the storm.
What can coaches learn from this situation?
Coaches should inquire as to whether the university is aware of any potential or existing NCAA violations or investigations before accepting a job.
Coaches should insist upon "reverse morals clauses" in their contracts which would permit the coach to terminate the contract if the university's actions cause the coach embarassment, damage the coach's reputation, or diminish the value of the job.
Coaches should negotiate escape clauses for certain levels of NCAA sanctions resulting from violations that occurred before the coach was hired.
In my opinion, Al Golden should sue Miami, for failure to disclose pertinent information, which would or could affect his duties, as head coach at Miami.

When the B7 Passat first came out with the central mounted analogue clock, I am determined to make it mine !
After upgrading to the new 7N0 gateway, 3AA Central Convenience Module, it is now possible for me to have the clock. It is mounted as part of the Central Electric II and Gateway. Coding is necessary....connection is simple.
But because, the various component have to be reposition, the changes on the various trims is necessary. Now waiting for the new dashboard trims from Germany.....both the passenger trim and cluster trims needed to be replaced. A whopping Euro250 for the two trims !
The tray is removed and the hazard switch together. The Analogue Clock and a new mounting bracket.
The hazard switch is moved from the original position to be part of the radio trim panel. New trim, new switch, new connector are required.
A new trim B7 Aircon Panel trim without the Reminder is used.
