"Landfall" by Photographer Mimi Plumb
Born and raised in San Francisco, California and currently based in Berkeley, photographer Mimi Plumb received her MFA in photography from the San Francisco Art Institute in 1986, and has since taught photography at the San Francisco Art Institute, San Jose State University, Stanford University, and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. "Landfall", published in 2018 by TBW Books, is a collection of photographs from Plumb's 1980's archive, a visual representation of the existential unease of the nuclear age:
"The mid to late 1980's, when these photographs were made encapsulated for me the anxieties of a world spinning out of balance. Global warming, civil wars in the Middle East and Central America, and the election of a former movie actor to the presidency of the United States, all contributed to the sense of no future. Landfall, a lyrical sequence from my 1980s archive of photographs, came from this desire to visualize the despair and disillusionment that I was feeling, an expression of a world turned upside down."
The second edition of "Landfall" will be available Spring 2020, and can be preordered here.

After a looong search for premises, one false start, an entertaining blog and a lo-o-ot of shopping for display cabinets, furniture and china, Pettigrew Tea Rooms is open for business.
I popped in this morning for a flying visit, and picked up a very good takeaway coffee and tasted a totally cute shortbread biscuit in the shape of a teapot.
Spread the word, and if you are passing or visiting Bute park, pop in for finger sandwiches, cake and a pot of tea!
Congratulations to David and the team and best of luck with the new venture.
You might be forgiven for thinking that taking on the former site of the much loved and missed Le Gallois, would be to invite inevitable and 'hard to match' expectation. Speculation was rife and interest was high in news that another restaurant was taking over, but where Le Gallois was pitched squarely in the fine-dining bracket, Oscars, already well established in Cowbridge, is a rather different proposition.
I went for lunch with a friend on one of those glorious, early spring weekends when going out without a coat and hat is still a novelty. When we arrived at 1.00pm there were already people outside enjoying the sun. A quick read revealed a very comprehensive lunch menu, from French Onion Soup (in a jar - not quite sure why) at £4 to an 8oz Fillet Steak at £24.
I ordered Slow Roast Ham, Egg and Maris Piper Chips at £8 and my friend had the Fish and Chips at £9. Both were very good and were stamped as Oscars interpretation of 2 classics.
The Ham that came with Egg and Chips was a slow roasted ham that was falling apart and was served hot, a twist on the familiar dish but it was soft, salty and very tasty. The addition of the leaves with red onion did feel like a bit of unnecessary twiddling.
The fish on the other meal wasn't battered and fried, but baked with an oaty crumb instead and all served in mock newspaper. The chips on both were good, crispy and with potato skin left on. We did have to chase down vinegar and sauces but this was our only minor complaint and to be fair this is being a bit picky!
I'd like to add a word of praise here for the menus at Oscars. If you are going to go 'off piste' with classics then it is important to manage expectations and Oscars does this very well. You get the headline of the dish followed by a short description.
Included on the menu is a suggested wine to go with everything (even, amusingly, the Croque Monsieur) which is fantastic for a Luddite like me. The (extensive) wine list itself is helpfully grouped into wine styles. Whites and reads each have 4 sub-groups (for example 'Light, juicy and fruit driven' !) with lots of choice by the glass and range from £15 to £45 a bottle. There are also breakfast and brunch menus and coffee and cake during the day.
I enjoyed my lunch at Oscars. The food was good quality and well thought out, even the simplest of dishes are considered. The service was friendly and the pricing was very keen, presumably to encourage the repeat business that a neighbourhood place needs to be successful. I took it as a good sign that my lunch companion mentioned, in the 1.5 hours we were there, 4 or 5 different times he had been there with recently. The 'personality' that was so sorely missing at the competent but dull Corner House was in strong evidence here.
I'll definitely be going back in the evening soon to take that tempting wine list out for a walk.
Last week I risked the displeasure of a few close friends and finally got round to visiting The Corner House. This is the place, in case you have been living in a black hole for the last few months, which opened just before Christmas on the site of the first gay pub in Wales, the much loved King's Cross.
The King's, which had been established for 40ish years, found itself smack bang in the centre of 'chromeandglassland' when St David's 2 opened and therefore changed overnight from shabby but friendly into prime real estate. Mitchells and Butlers now had an opportunity to revamp it into one of its core brands (along with Browns and O'Neals) as a 'gastro pub'. A well organised and enthusiastically supported campaign was pulled together but the writing was on the wall and the King's closed down.
What reappeared in its place was a monolith of beige 'tastefulness' squarely pitched to resonate with those who have taken neutral tones in home decor to their hearts. There is nothing individual or interesting about The Corner House. It is inoffensive in the extreme.
We had booked a table for a (pre-grand slam!) Friday evening, and my first impression of the interior was much the same as the exterior. The place was packed out and we were asked to go the bar for a drink while they checked on our table upstairs.
We sat, read through the menu and ordered sharing breads, roasted garlic and olives to start. A couple of bottles of a very decent and drinkable merlot, and mains. The breads and olives were fine if unremarkable, and the roasted garlic was a good addition.
My order was for a burger which came with 'onion, gherkin, mayo, relish and fries'. Both of us who ordered burgers were very pleased. The cooking was spot on, still pink inside and the meat was clearly good quality with plenty of flavour. The chips were good too, crispy and fluffy. My only comment, is that thinking back, I don't really remember tasting relish. Mayo and gherkin yes, relish no.
One thing that sprang to mind, which is also something I recently experienced at The Meating Place, was the discrepancy in portion sizes. I had asked about accompaniments for each of the mains (these are bizarrely missing from the menu) The burgers, pizza and spit roast chicken were all there or thereabouts, but my friend who ordered lamb rump was crestfallen and immediately ordered a side of vegetables which were very good if brought suspiciously quickly.
...we were quickly told that our time allocation for the table was up.
This policy wasn't made clear when I booked. I have seen this on other websites (London mainly) but not on this one.
I'm not sure how I felt about this, it certainly wasn't well handled by the restaurant, although it was clearly very busy, it was handled brusquely and left a sour taste in my mouth.
Would I visit The Corner House again? Maybe. Not for a special occasion, but if you are catching up with friends in town where you are paying more attention to the conversation than the food it is a solid option.
If there is nothing offensive about The Corner House, there is equally nothing exciting. Everything was fine and I am sure it will make money but it is crying out for some of the personality it had in it's previous incarnation.
It struck me the other day that I hadn't really talked about takeaways at all on this blog which is surprising because I do have takeaways a couple of times a month. So why haven't I?
I suppose it is because, unlike with restaurants, I tend to stick to the same couple of places. Local, reasonable, reliable. I am not as adventurous when bringing food home. Takeaways tend to be reserved for those occasions when I have arrived home too late, or I am too tired to be bothered with cooking rather than seen as a treat.
Generally most takeaways have uninspiring menus. Low quality ingredients, poor value and full of MSG.
The other option is to look at restaurants which also offer takeaway, or even better, a delivery service. One upshot of the current economy is that restaurants looking to increase their revenue are starting to see this as a viable additional service where previously it was seen as taking their food down-market (a bit like when film actors decided, post Keifer Sutherland on 24, that TV wasn't so bad after all).
So, I was very excited to find out that .cn, a restaurant reviewed and praised by food bloggers in recent months had started offering not only takeaway, but a delivery service. Utopia!
The website describes the food as 'influenced from the Northern provinces of China' although with a strong presence of chilli and Sichuan pepper on the menu the food reminded me more of my brief visit to Guilin in the south.
Ingredients for the adventurous (shredded pig maw, beef tripe and chicken gizzard) sit alongside the more usual but no less tasty options (lamb breast, meatballs, sea bass). What is immediately obvious is that this is no ordinary menu sanitised for Western tastes.
This is the second order from .cn that we have had. The first (Sichuan chicken, crispy pork in Peking sauce with pancakes and guotie) was so good we went back for more the following week.
The guotie last time were a revelation so this time we ordered a stuffed steamed bun each. The bun was fluffy and the filling of pork, leek and spring onion was savoury and moreish. I smiled like a loon with every mouthful.
The mains were pork in Sichuan pepper and chilli sauce (left) and crispy lamb breast with ground chilli.
The lamb was delicious, the layer of fat was soft and full of flavour, although the dish had maybe been compromised a bit by the necessity of transporting the meat in a plastic container. This had the unfortunate effect of steaming something that should be crispy. I can only assume that is what happened since I haven't been to the restaurant yet and it's hard to see how they could avoid this happening.
The thought that has gone into a varied and challenging menu, the care that is taken over the ingredients, the high quality cooking all results in an impressive all round experience and you still get a strong sense of the personality of the place when eating this food at home.
I'm already planning my next order!
When it comes to food I am easily influenced. Like that cheese advert that sees a string of people seeing and then eating cheese on toast, someone only has to mention a particular food to me and I will immediately start craving and obsessing until I get some.
A few weeks ago we went to The Promised Land for lunch because I'd been craving faggots and peas and they are one of the few places that have them on the menu. One of us ordered the traditional Cawl and when it came it looked very similar to the recipe that I use and so I've been craving that ever since (you can see how this goes).
Cawl is a traditional dish which varies according to the region, season and personal taste, there is no right and wrong (although obviously I am right) so I thought I would share my traditional Cawl recipe with you because it is easy, tasty, cheap. It freezes very well so I always make a huge pan of and freeze into portions for lazy cooking days when I don't want to resort to the chippie!
This is my generic recipe but it can be changed according to what looks good and what you like and can be doubled easily. You can also substitute lamb for beef and add bacon if you want. Make your cawl the day before you want to eat it if you can.
Lamb shoulder, breast, neck on the bone (1kg) get extra bones if you can!
Put the lamb and the bones if you can get them into a pan and cover with cold water. Add the onion in wedges along with 1 of the carrots in chunks, a couple of bay leaves and some peppercorns.
Bring slowly to the boil, simmer for about 2 hours giving the stock the occasional skim, until the meat is falling apart.
Remove the meat and vegetables from the stock which now needs to be strained (I do it through a cloth) and skim the fat. If you have time you can chill the stock and the fat will solidify into a disk which can just be lifted off. Chunk up the meat which should just slide off the bone.
Melt a slice of butter and start softening whatever veg you are using, adding them to the pan starting with the hardest first and softest (the leeks) last. Then return the stock and add your chunks of lamb and simmer gently for about an hour until the veg is tender. Check for seasoning and you can always add a lamb stock cube if you fancy.
Then leave it for 24 hours and serve hot with crusty bread and a piece of very mature cheddar. As we say in Wales, 'Lush'!

Q: Accessing managed object in a c# callback passed to a native dll I'm trying to pass a C# callback function to a native dll. It works fine, but I couldn't find a way to access the parent object of the callback method. Here's a code which demonstrates what I want to do:
class MyForm: Form {
  public delegate void CallbackDelegate(IntPtr thisPtr);

  [DllImport("mylib.dll", CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
  public static extern void Test(CallbackDelegate callback);

  int Field;

  static void Callback(IntPtr thisPtr)
  {
      // I need to reference class field Field here.
      MyForm thisObject = ?MagicMethod?(thisPtr);

      thisObject.Field = 10;
  }

  void CallExternalMethod()
  {
      Test(Callback);
  }
}

I tried getting the pointer of this but I got the following exception: "Object contains non-primitive or non-blittable data.". I should probably mention that the parent object is a WindowsForms form.
UPDATE
The dll is written in Delphi and the signature of the Test function is the following:
type
  TCallback = procedure of object; stdcall;

procedure Test(Callback: TCallback); stdcall;

I received the above error message when I tried to get the pointer to the class with the following code:
var ptr = GCHandle.Alloc(this, GCHandleType.Pinned).AddrOfPinnedObject();

A: You are over thinking this. The C# marshalling will create a thunk around your delegate. You must not attempt to do so.
On the Delphi side write it like this:
type
  TCallback = procedure; stdcall;

Simply remove the of object.
On the C# side your delegate is:
public delegate void CallbackDelegate();

The method that you use for your delegate looks like this:
void Callback()
{
    // an instance method, so *this* is available
}

And then you call into the native code like this:
void CallExternalMethod()
{
    Test(Callback);
}

So, let's put it all together. On the Delphi side you can write:
library MyLib;

type
  TCallback = procedure; stdcall;

procedure Test(Callback: TCallback); stdcall;
begin
  Callback;
end;

exports
  Test;

begin
end.

And on the C# side:
class MyForm: Form {
    public delegate void CallbackDelegate();

    [DllImport("mylib.dll")]
    public static extern void Test(CallbackDelegate callback);

    int Field;

    static void Callback()
    {
        Field = 10;
    }

    void CallExternalMethod()
    {
        Field = 0;
        Test(Callback);
        Debug.Assert(Field == 10);
    }
}

A: You're supposed to use the System.Runtime.InteropServices.GCHandle class, its MSDN documentation has examples. It involves using its static methods to convert from C# reference to and from an unmanaged value.
I have no quick way to check, but something like this should work:

static void Callback(IntPtr thisPtr)
{
    MyForm thisObject = (MyForm)GCHandle.FromIntPtr(thisPtr).Target;

    thisObject.Field = 10;
}

The IntPtr should be obtained like this:
IntPtr thisPtr = GCHandle.ToIntPtr(GCHandle.Alloc(thisObject)));

PS: Note that at some point you have to free the handle, either in the callee or in the caller.

1954: Adrian Burk Throws 7 TD Passes as Eagles Beat Redskins
The Philadelphia Eagles were off to a 3-0 start in 1954 as they traveled to Washington to take on the Redskins on October 17 at Griffith Stadium. Since taking over as head coach in 1953, Jim Trimble had split the duties at quarterback between Adrian Burk and Bobby Thomason. That was the case again in '54 and each threw at least one touchdown in each of the three wins. Washington, under first-year Head Coach Joe Kuharich (who would later coach the Eagles as well), was 0-3 and had been beaten badly in each instance.
Washington's defensive backfield was inexperienced and the Eagles capitalized. On their second possession midway through the first quarter, Burk tossed his first (and longest) touchdown pass of the game, connecting with end Bobby Walston for 26 yards.
QB Al Dorow led the Redskins on a 35-yard drive that ended with a 14-yard touchdown pass to end Ed Barker. But Burk hit star end Pete Pihos twice for touchdowns in the second quarter, covering 18 and 19 yards, and the Eagles held a 21-7 lead at the half.
Burk's fourth touchdown pass of the game came in the third quarter, finding Walston in the end zone from five yards out. The Redskins made it interesting when rookie FB Dale Atkeson returned the ensuing kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown, which at the time set a team record. But Burk tossed two more TD passes to pull the Eagles away - to Walston for a third time for four yards and to HB Toy Ledbetter from nine yards out.
The Redskins made another big play, although it was too-little, too-late, as QB Jack Scarbath threw a pass to end Hugh Taylor that covered 60 yards. Scarbath then connected with Taylor again for a five-yard touchdown.
Up 42-21, Burk was relieved by Thomason. But when Philadelphia's publicity director realized that Burk was just one short of Sid Luckman's NFL single-game record of seven touchdown passes, Trimble reinserted him into the contest. In the final seconds, he threw the record-tying seventh touchdown pass to Pihos. Characteristically, it was short, covering three yards, and the Eagles won, 49-21.
Adrian Burk completed 19 of 27 passes for 232 yards with the 7 touchdowns against just one interception. Pete Pihos was the top receiver with 9 catches for 132 yards and three of the TDs. Bobby Walston scored three as well, in addition to the one by Ledbetter.
Burk, the team's regular punter, also had an outstanding game punting the ball. On three occasions he managed to angle kicks out of bounds inside the Washington 10 yard line (at the two, three, and nine yard lines, to be exact).
Overall, the Eagles outgained Washington with 432 yards to 115 and compiled 30 first downs to 9 for the Redskins. In addition to 289 passing yards, Philadelphia rolled up 172 yards on the ground, while the defense held the Redskins to just 28 yards on 20 carries. The Redskins further hurt their cause by turning the ball over seven times, against two committed by the Eagles.
Philadelphia failed to maintain its winning momentum, losing the next two games and four of five on the way to a 7-4-1 record and second place finish in the Eastern Conference. Washington ended up in fifth with a 3-9 tally.
Burk had another big performance later in the season when the Redskins came to Philadelphia, throwing for more yards (345) as well as five more TD passes. Not surprisingly, it was the best year of his seven-season career as he led the NFL in touchdown passes (23) and percentage of TD passes (10.0) and was selected to the Pro Bowl. He also had career highs in passing yards (1740) and completion percentage (53.2). Of course, the two games against Washington certainly fueled his success, as he threw for a combined 577 yards and 12 touchdowns.
With 60 catches, Pete Pihos (pictured at left) tied for the league lead with San Francisco's Billy Wilson. His 872 yards and 10 touchdowns ranked third. In the last three seasons of his Hall of Fame career (1953-54-55), Pihos led the NFL in pass receiving in each and in receiving yards twice.
Bobby Walston was leading the league with 45 points heading into the game and helped his cause by adding another 25 to give him 70 after just four contests. The team's placekicker as well as a starting end, he went on to lead the NFL in scoring with 114 points. In addition to 11 touchdowns scored (all on pass receptions), he booted 36 extra points and four field goals.
The record of seven TD passes in a game has been tied three more times (George Blanda of the Oilers in the AFL in 1961, Y.A. Tittle of the Giants in '62, and Joe Kapp of the Vikings in 1969) – Burk's yardage total remains the lowest of any of the seven-TD performances (the others, including Luckman, were all over 400, and Tittle passed for 505).
Coincidentally, Burk, who went on to become an NFL official (as well as a successful lawyer in his hometown of Houston) following his retirement as a player, was a member of the officiating crew when Kapp had his seven-TD game. He also was the back judge who signaled touchdown when RB Franco Harris of the Steelers scored the "Immaculate Reception" TD in the 1972 postseason against Oakland.

Harris to Supply New F-35 Core Processor
By Nick Zazulia | September 27, 2018

Lockheed Martin will use Harris-built integrated core processors for the next wave of F-35s (Harris)
The Lockheed Martin F-35 will run on a Harris-built integrated core processor (ICP) beginning in 2023, the two companies revealed Thursday.
The new ICP, the "brains" of the advanced fighter, promises 25 times the processing power at one-fourth the cost, according to Harris, and is built on an open-system architecture to enable easier future additions or upgrades, which fits in with Lockheed's and the U.S. Defense Department's goals.
"The new F-35 ICP will pave the way for system scalability well into the future," said Ed Zoiss, president of Harris Electronic Systems, in a statement. "Open systems are the future of avionics and Harris has invested substantial R&D to deliver more affordable and higher-performance solutions than would have been possible using proprietary technology."
The additional power is important as the ICP processes data for the F-35's communications, sensors, electronic warfare, guidance and control, cockpit and helmet displays so the aircraft systems can help the pilot synthesize all of that data to inform decisions and actions.
"When you look at the amount of information being processed, it provides a lot higher reliability of that data coming to the pilot as well as flexibility in the pilot's ability to get that information through the system," said Bryant Henson, Harris Electronic Systems' VP and general manager for avionics, in a phone conversation. "As capability increases on the aircraft, with this architecture, what we're providing is the ability to scale with the capability needs and capability growth of the aircraft itself and the weapon systems."
Henson said that the open architecture would not only enable future upgrades, but was also key to enabling the level of performance today at the attractive price point.
"The aim was really to reduce engineering development costs, simplify integration, really increase electronics density to facilitate those upgrades," he said. "We've dramatically increased component standardization in the design. We've enabled our suppliers and technology partners to design and innovate within what I'll call a set of defined interfaces and also put in place an architecture that's dramatically increased the use of commercial off-the-shelf components — and that ultimately reduces long-term costs."

The ICP will be integrated starting with 2023's Lot 15 F-35s, the same time as the switchover to Raytheon's distributed aperture system. The ICP will be part of what Lockheed Martin is calling the joint strike fighter's "technology refresh 3." Additional elements in the tech refresh include the panoramic cockpit display electronic unit and aircraft memory system, which Harris was also awarded in recompetes last year.
Up to this point, and through Lot 14, ICPs have been provided by Lockheed Martin Rotary and Missions Systems. A spokesman for the company said there were several bids for the new contract, but would not reveal the companies. Lockheed Martin has consistently said all partners and suppliers are vulnerable to replacement in recompetes to keep prices as low as possible on the trillion-dollar jet.
"We are aggressively pursuing cost reduction across the F-35 enterprise and, after conducting a thorough review and robust competition, we're confident the next-generation integrated core processor will reduce costs and deliver transformational capabilities for the warfighter," said Greg Ulmer, Lockheed Martin VP and general manager of the F-35 program.
In addition to recompetes, Lockheed Martin is transitioning several F-35 suppliers to longer-term "performance-based logistics" contracts to enhance parts availability and reduce sustainment costs. The new five-year contracts allow each supplier to longer-term investments and actions to reduce costs and improve efficiencies, the company said.
Harris recently delivered its millionth product to the F-35 program at over a 99.95% reliability and Henson said being chosen for this contract is an affirmation of the company's performance and its decisions on where to invest. He said the company has increased its manufacturing footprint four-fold to ensure it would have no trouble continuing to deliver on-time products to the F-35 as production ramps up in the 2020s.

Students at Cambridge- South Dorchester High School were involved in a hands on Tech Ed activity involving toothpicks and marshmallows! Each student was given an instruction sheet and were encouraged to produce what was pictured or make their own design! Students involved enjoyed this fun activity but how could you not when you're able to eat marshmallows too!
The activity was to go in part of our architect class which we are supplementing for tech ed. The first two chapters were leaning about basic design, foundations, and structure. After two classes of lecture, I thought it would be a neat hands on activity to have the students build structures from toothpicks and marshmallows to show how important foundations and support hold up a house or building. With the weight changing through out the design, the students were able to see how the support and foundation are one of the most important techniques in building ( height, weight, support, and beams). The tallest tower built was 6 stories tall but all the toothpicks were tripled at the bottom showing how the student adapted to the weight to hold it up. It was a great and educational activity and of course who wouldn't want a little marshmallow snack !


We can provide advice and support with placement breakdown and risk of fixed or permanent exclusion.
Please see our information explaining fixed term and permanent exclusion. There is also guidance for exclusions with an Education Health and Care Plan.
Here is some guidance on what to do if your child is excluded from school.
Schools must have regard to the SEND Code of Practice and the Equality Act 2010 (part 6 relates to schools), and the Head Teacher should consider whether assessment is required to identify any SEN, and that the appropriate provision is in place. See our information about support in schools.
An exclusion can only be on disciplinary grounds, for example it would be unlawful to exclude a pupil simply because they have additional needs or a disability that the school feels it is unable to meet (see DfE Exclusions guidance).
In exceptional cases, where additional evidence has come to light, a fixed-term exclusion may be extended or converted to a Permanent exclusion.
Exclusions may only be given by the Head Teacher who has a duty to notify parents in writing and include the reason for the exclusion, the period of exclusion, parents rights to make representations to the governing body and how, and should also include links to sources of impartial advice and information.
The Head Teacher must immediately inform the governing body and the local authority of: a permanent exclusion; more than 15 days fixed-term exclusions in a term or where an exclusion results in a child missing an examination or national curriculum test.
Where a pupil has received multiple exclusions or is approaching the legal limit of 45 school days of fixed-period exclusion in an academic year, the head teacher should consider whether exclusion is providing an effective sanction.
(section 20 of the Department for Education Exclusions guidance).
Read the government guidance around Alternative Provision.
You can also contact the local authority directly with any questions or concerns relating to exclusions, and alternative provision.
Permanent exclusions should be a last resort particularly for children with Special Educational Needs and in other vulnerable groups.
The head teacher should, as far as possible, avoid permanently excluding any pupil with an EHC plan or a 'looked after child.' (Department for Education Exclusions Statutory Guidance, section 23).
For a child with ongoing behavioural difficulties, you will be able to discuss at the Annual Review how things are going for your child, request changes to the EHC plan about the support in place, and can request with the local authority where you believe further assessment or advice is needed.
You do not have to wait until the Annual Review if you are concerned about provision or the progress being made. You can contact the local authority to ask that they bring the Annual Review forward and include your reasons for the request.
This means that following a permanent exclusion for a child with an EHC plan, the local authority must review the plan. When deciding to amend an EHC plan following annual review, the local authority must send you a copy of the proposed amendments and advise you of your right to request a particular school.


Giving a great presentation begins with knowing how to properly project your voice.
How you stand can affect your breathing and challenge your ability to project. Make sure you stand in a neutral position, feet shoulder-width apart. Keep your shoulders back and avoid slouching. This posture helps you take deep breaths and helps your diaphragm control the speed and power at which your air is released as you speak.
Your breathing can affect the way your voice projects. Shallow breaths between words limit the power you can generate in your voice. Instead, be mindful of your breathing. Take deep breaths using your diaphragm to pull as much air into your lungs as possible. The air you breathe generates power in your voice, allowing you to broadcast the sound farther without straining your vocal cords or causing throat irritation.
Staying in shape helps you develop the breathing skills necessary to have a robust and resounding voice. Cardiovascular exercises ensure proper oxygenation to the muscles and force your body to stretch your lungs and use your diaphragm. This trains your body to breathe more effectively and use air more efficiently. With regular exercise, taking deep breaths will become second nature. You won't have to focus on breathing to project sound. It will begin to come more naturally.
Proper pronunciation helps to ensure audience members can understand what you are saying, even in the back of the room. Words typically misheard are those in the past tense and those ending in an "ing." Be sure to articulate every syllable in a word to avoid sounding like you're mumbling. Emphasize your words with energy as you speak. This will help each word sound clear and audible.
Even the best presentations can be lost on audiences when poorly delivered. Speaking too quietly or quickly makes the audience work too hard to understand you. Concentrate on speaking clearly. Avoid filler words such as "uh" and "um." These sounds can easily blend in with your speech, making the words you want to say sound garbled.
Another way to discover opportunities to improve is by recording yourself speaking. You can do this in a meeting, presentation or as you practice in preparation on your smartphone. Immediately watch the playback and carefully observe your posture, your breathing, enunciation and voice projection. Take notes and mindfully work on those areas. If you're recording yourself in preparation for a presentation, continue to fine-tune each skill, record yourself and watch the playback. Don't stop until you see skills become a habit.
Mentors, voice coaches and trustworthy peers can help you identify areas of improvement and hold you accountable to ongoing practice. Find someone who can help you focus specifically on presentation skills, including voice projection. Voice coaches are ideal to help you learn proper skills for breathing, vocal-cord strengthening, enunciation and more. If a voice coach isn't readily available, mentors and peers can provide continual feedback. They can point out bad habits and observe changes as you practice.
The ability to influence others isn't something you're born with but a learned trait that requires focus, dedication and practice. Implement these six tips to help your message resonate with your audience in a more powerful, impactful way.

The DC-6 departed Las Palmas on a three-engine ferry flight to Copenhagen, Denmark via Barcelona, Spain. The airplane took off after refueling at Barcelona at 22:24 GMT.
On short final to Copenhagen, probably immediately before passing the first approach lights, the pilot-in-command ordered full flaps. The speed was then 110-130 knots and the height rather low. The aircraft showed a tendency to bank which was counteracted by applying aileron control. At 100-200 m before the runway threshold, the pilot-in-command realized that he no longer had sufficient control to make a safe landing and decided to abandon the landing. When speed was around 100 knots full power was added, the gear was selected up and flaps were ordered to 20. Upon power application, the aircraft banked violently to the right. The wingtip struck the ground 200 m beyond the threshold and 80 m right of the centreline. The outer portion of the wing disintegrated and the aircraft crashed.
PROBABLE CAUSE: "During the approach to runway 04 with the starboard outer engine inoperative, the speed of the aircraft decreased to a value critical for safe manoeuvring. Because of this, the pilot-in-command attempted an overshoot. In the course thereof he lost control of the aircraft which, in a heavy bank, went into an uncontrolled right-hand turn, its starboard wing hit the ground, and the aircraft crashed. That the aircraft got into the above-mentioned critical situation must, to an essential degree, be attributed to the fact that the pilot-in-command selected full flaps at a time when the altitude and speed of the aircraft in relation to the distance from the runway threshold did not justify such disposition."
Distance from Las Palmas-Airport de Gran Canaria to København-Kastrup Airport as the crow flies is 3781 km (2363 miles).

Scrolling is a widespread pattern in the way we interact with websites. It determines how smooth and responsive we experience them during the process of finding our way to complete our intended tasks. Very few web pages are free from scrolling by design, so we can't avoid the reflows that scrollbars cause and their effect on user's behavior. A common discussion point in the past was what the immediately visible top area of the site should contain and we tried to put the most important content there. But as time passed and page lengths became infinite, we somehow lost this discussion. We no longer even know what our most important content is. As a result our users scroll up and down without finding any peace. During this scrolling all kinds of things can happen and the viewport gets constantly repainted. Everything that is bound to the scroll event gets executed and if these computations are heavy, they can slow down the page significantly. As the user scrolls, hover effects on all kinds of elements are randomly activated, which—in case of a table with too many elements—can slow down the experience without any visible reason. All this leads to less than 60fps.
But scrolling isn't always initiated by the user. This leaves room for interpretation how it should be done. We can put an anchor on a link that sends the user immediately to the element with the same id. There is nothing wrong with this approach: it is very fast and happens immediately, probably even on a slow mobile device. It shows exactly what the user expects to see. We could probably explain this as a "scroll-to" behavior. But lately we have also introduced the very similar "scroll-through" pattern and the difference is so subtle that it justifies further discussion. When a user clicks on a link or button, he "travels" to the right place with the scrolling itself being animated. This allows him to get a better feeling of what the page contains before he sees the related content. Depending on how fast the animation is, he could see more or less. If he sees more, he arrives slower at his destination; if he sees almost nothing (with a one-second animation), he arrives faster. Here we are animating something the user didn't ask for, something unrelated to what he was trying to achieve. Even if this looks great, it isn't very useful to someone who isn't interested in extra details. Problematic is also that the effect happens after the action and the user has no control over it for its entire duration. Normally, we see effects before taking action and when done right, they give us hints of what we could expect. But this isn't the case with scroll-through. I think that whether animations should happen after the user's action should be open for discussion, because right now we don't seem to have interface elements that clearly suggest animated scrolling. At least I think of links in terms of leading somewhere and of buttons as having two states, one of which activates something important.
Scroll-through, when widespread, could motivate making web pages even longer, when people could jump up and down everywhere with a single click. Then we'll no longer talk about user experience, but about scroll experience. Unfortunately, this will have further consequences for our ability to focus and will make finding content even harder. It's probably best if we leave scrolling for users to do it themselves.
We can see that the sites with the most traffic are concentrated in being around 1000px tall or less. (The mean is 1822px, the median—1179px.) This is contrary to the widespread perception that more content is better. But there are also many sites in the range of 2000-4000px. One is even above 7000px high. If we assume that the viewport has a height of 700px, this would mean that the user needs to scroll through ten screens. It's hard to imagine how many dpi the his mouse needs to be to do this in a reasonable time. The need for more scrolling is thus a bad design decision we should strive to avoid.

Q: How does sound data look like? I read how sounds represented with numbers in computer here.
And I figured out that usual representation is that, we get 44,100 numbers between [-32767, 32767] per second.
Then to my imagination, there's got to be a big one-column matrix, right?
I'm a R user, so speaking in R, sound data of 3 seconds would be,
s <- 3
sound <- matrix(0, ncol = 1, nrow = 44100 * s)
nrow(sound)
#> [1] 132300

one-column matrix with 132,300 rows.
Is this really the case?
I want some analogous picture in my head, say, in case of a picture with 256 * 256,
if we RGB that picture, we get 3 matrices each with 256 * 256.
And in the case of sounds, we get a long long column? As I think about this again, it's not even a matrix after all. It's a column.
Am I right? I can't find any similar dataset searching Internet.
Any advices will be welcomed. Thanks.

A: The raw format that is created early in that linked question could look a lot like a single dimension array.  And probably the signal that is sent to the speaker to make the sound could be represented similarly.
But you're unlikely to find a file on your computer that looks like that for several reasons:

*

*Sound can be stored at different bit depth - that is how many bits for each 'number' CD Audio tracks have a 16 bit depth, but you could have 8 or 32 bits etc. In a straight stream of these numbers you need some how to know how far to read to the next number, so that information needs to be safed somewhere.

*Sample rate can vary. If you've got a sequence of numbers representing an audio signal, then you need to know how long each number lasts for.

*mostly sounds are more complex. Instead of a single source, you have stereo, or 5 channel, or whatever, so the system needs to be able to store / decode multiple pieces of information for the sounds you want to hear at a particular time

*much of sound is repetitive, and so can often benefit from compression.

So most sounds are stored in a compressed format that includes wrapper information about how to decode it. The wrapper information includes how to decode the different audio channels, what sort of compression was used etc.
The closest you're likely to find are a .wav file (Windows) or .aiff (Mac). But even these include some metadata (sample rate and bit depth to start).

U.S. health officials urge people to stop vaping as third death reported
By Emily Walters
A third vaping-related, severe lung injury death has been confirmed in IN by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on September 06, 2019.
The first death was reported in IL in late August. Officials say the likely cause is "chemical exposure", although they haven't identified what exactly that chemical is. As a result, the FDA issued a warning in July 2009 on the health risks posed by vaping and, like the WHO, called for clinical studies to help determine whether e-cigarettes are safe for their intended use. So far, no device, product, or substance has been tied to all of the cases.
New York's health department said laboratory test results showed very high levels of vitamin E oil in cannabis cartridges used by all 34 people in the state who had fallen ill after using e-cigarettes, and as a result was focusing its investigation in that direction.
The FDA said on Friday numerous samples tested by the states or by the agency as part of the investigation contain tetrahydrocannabinol (or THC), the psychoactive component of cannabis.
Just a few hours earlier, the CDC held a briefing on the rise of severe lung illnesses connected to e-cigarette use, and said that the number of reported cases had more than doubled in the last week to 450, from just over 200.
An article on 53 illnesses in IL and Wisconsin noted almost one-fifth of cases were people who said they vaped nicotine alone, and nothing containing marijuana oils.
Juul warned by FDA over marketing practices
An editorial in the NEJM by David Christiani, a professor of medicine at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, echoed the CDC's recent push to discourage people from using e-cigarettes.
"At least one Vitamin E acetate containing vape product has been linked to each patient who submitted a product for testing", the New York State Department of Health said in a statement. The health researchers of the Government are trying to find out whether an oil derived from Vitamin E- found in marijuana vaping products from patients throughout the nation who got sick, maybe the reason behind the illness. The agency says that officials are still looking for a common factor linking all of the cases.
At this time, officials are not clear on what is causing the outbreak.
Officials cautioned, however, that respiratory illnesses have been diagnosed where the vaping product did not contain marijuana.
The federal health organization urged Americans to stop using e-cigarettes while it - along with the Food and Drug Administration and state officials - investigate the respiratory problems that have impacted residents in 33 states and one jurisdiction.

Cher Talks New Album, Dating, and Miley
By Zach Seemayer 4:30 AM PDT, September 24, 2013
Music legend Cher is returning to the scene with her twenty-sixth album Closer To The Truth, her first since her 2001 album Living Proof, and she sat down with ET's Rob Marciano to talk about the most important things in life: Music, love, and art.
"For you it's been twelve years, twelve long years of your fans waiting, why did it take so long for you to get back in the studio again?" Rob asked the soft-spoken singer.
PICS: Star Sightings
"I guess because my manager didn't start yelling at me until then," Cher said, explaining the hiatus. "I've said this, and I think people find this a little hard to believe, I just didn't think about it. I forgot."
Cher also spoke candidly about modern pop stars who are pushing limits, including Miley Cyrus, who recently released a music video for her song Wrecking Ball, in which she appears naked.
"Art is art, and it's meant to be controversial. And you can like it or not. If someone puts their art out there, you get to like it or not," Cher said. "When I was doing my stuff when I was younger people went 'she's almost naked!' I wasn't almost naked, ever, but things have just progressed. I kind of opened the door a little way and these girls kind of crashed it down."
RELATED: Cher Opens Up About Turning Down Russian Olympics
"Art is art," Cher reiterated. "You don't have to like it, you can think it's awful, you can love it, but you don't get to stop it."
When asked if performers like Cyrus have gone too far, Cher said, "It's not my job to be the judge of that."
Check out the video for more from Cher about her new album, what musicians she looking forward to working with in the future, and what dating is like for someone like her.
Cher's new album Closer To The Truth, her first in 12 years, will be coming out September 24.

Anavex®Life Sciences Issued New U.S. Patent for Composition of Matter Covering ANAVEX®2-73
NEW YORK – September 5, 2017
Anavex® Life Sciences Corp. ("Anavex" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: AVXL) today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office has issued U.S. Patent Number 9,750,746 entitled "ANAVEX® 2-73 and certain anticholinesterase inhibitors composition and method for neuroprotection." This patent provides the Company with intellectual property protection covering composition of matter for ANAVEX® 2-73 directed to a novel and synergistic neuroprotective compound combined with donepezil. The issued patent offers protection through 2033.
"This newly issued patent expands the proprietary position of ANAVEX® 2-73," said Christopher U. Missling, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Anavex. "This new patent is a continuation of Anavex's vigorous pursuit of intellectual property protection for our neuroprotective therapeutics and we look forward to continued progress, including advancing ANAVEX® 2-73 in clinical studies this year."
ANAVEX® 2-73 is an orally available, small-molecule activator of the sigma-1 receptor which, data suggest, is pivotal to restoring neural cell homeostasis and promoting neuroplasticity.[1] Donepezil is currently the leading compound for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease in more than 50 countries and is postulated to exert a therapeutic effect by enhancing cholinergic function. ANAVEX® 2-73 is to advance this year into a Phase 2/3 clinical trial for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, as well as other neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental CNS indications, including the orphan designation Rett syndrome.
About Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive, irreversible neurological disease and the most common cause of dementia. In the U.S., there are over five million individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and an estimated 50 million people live with dementia worldwide. Today, there are no commercially available therapies to address the underlying cause of Alzheimer's. According to the World Alzheimer Report 2016, the global cost of dementia was $818 billion in 2015 and is expected to become a trillion-dollar disease by 2018.
Anavex Life Sciences Corp. (Nasdaq: AVXL) is a publicly traded biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development of differentiated therapeutics for the treatment of neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental diseases including Alzheimer's disease, other central nervous system (CNS) diseases, pain and various types of cancer. Anavex's lead drug candidate, ANAVEX® 2-73, recently completed successfully a Phase 2a clinical trial for Alzheimer's disease. ANAVEX® 2-73 is an orally available drug candidate that restores cellular homeostasis by targeting sigma-1 and muscarinic receptors. Preclinical studies demonstrated its potential to halt and/or reverse the course of Alzheimer's disease. It has also exhibited anticonvulsant, anti-amnesic, neuroprotective and anti-depressant properties in animal models, indicating its potential to treat additional CNS disorders, including epilepsy. The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research has awarded Anavex a research grant to develop ANAVEX® 2-73 for the treatment of Parkinson's disease to fully fund a preclinical study, which could justify moving ANAVEX® 2-73 into a Parkinson's disease clinical trial. ANAVEX® 3-71, also targeting sigma-1 and M1 muscarinic receptors, is a promising preclinical drug candidate demonstrating disease modifications against the major Alzheimer's hallmarks in transgenic (3xTg-AD) mice, including cognitive deficits, amyloid and tau pathologies, and also with beneficial effects on neuroinflammation and mitochondrial dysfunctions.

Carrow Road, Norwich City Football Club.
In 2001 the owners of Norwich City Football Club, Delia Smith and Michael Wynn-Jones, asked an FSA representative, a member of the Shareholders Association and Mike Reynolds to attend the inaugural Supporters Direct (SD) Conference at Birkbeck College.
Within a month SD chaired a meeting of a variety of NCFC fans groups where it was agreed to try to establish a Supporters Trust at Norwich City and later that month, at the invitation of the Club, a presentation was made to the NCFC AGM, which received popular support from the NCFC Board and the shareholders present. This was followed by an open meeting, post-match, at Carrow Road to hear a presentation from SD and the NCFC Chairman. There was a degree of scepticism from many fans present but enough were in favour of setting up a Trust that in the following January it was agreed to formally launch the Trust with an open-meeting in July.
In the summer, needing to raise funds, the Club announced a share issue and asked the Trust if it would delay the launch to maximise the uptake on the shares before the Trust got involved in fan share purchase. In return, they offered the Trust the opportunity to hold the launch meeting at Norwich Castle adjacent to the NCFC Centenary Exhibition and most importantly the ability to continue to purchase Ordinary shares at any time and to fund raise at Club events.
Prior to this open-meeting a fan loaned the new Trust £500 to make its first share purchase and the Trust was under way and in subsequent years a close relationship was forged with the Club and a programme of share purchase on behalf of the fans was put into action.
As a celebration of the first ten years of the Trust, Supporters Direct helped the Trust arrange the first informal "twinning" with an overseas fans group, "A la nantaise", the first democratic fans group of FC Nantes, a Ligue Un team which has the same colours and same nickname as Norwich City.
To formalize the partnership, we signed a common text expressing our common vision of football, our belief in community ownership and good governance in football.
Over the years the Trust has continued to use its funds from subscriptions and events to purchase shares from the Club on behalf of fans but in 2011 the club increased the price of an Ordinary share from £30 to £100. Two years later the Trust was informed that the Club would no longer make ordinary shares available to the Trust but suggested that it might like to purchase shares from individuals seeking to sell their shares back to the Club.
The Trust Board had negotiations with the Chief Executive to explain the Trust's constitutional position regarding subscriptions and share purchase. The outcome was that the Trust could continue submitting future applications in £2,000 blocks but with the caveat that each application would now require the agreement of the NCFC Board of Directors.
To retain access to NCFC shares the Trust agreed to assist the Club with the numerous enquiries from individuals regarding share sales and purchases by allowing the Club to re-direct individuals to the Trust website. The site would hold a list of those individuals seeking to buy or sell shares and the Club would deal with all the legalities of any share transfers.
The new price of shares duly led the Trust to change its policy to include share purchase from those individuals wishing to sell shares on the website and the Trust has now made "The Fans" the 14th largest shareholder in Norwich City Football Club.
In 2015 to coincide with a new Chairman and a closer relationship with the Football Supporters Federation, the AGM agreed to rename the Norwich City Supporters Trust as the Canaries Trust and undertake a change in approach to make the workings of the Trust more transparent.
The following year it was decided that the Trust should reach out to other supporter groups and offer each a place on the Trust board so that they could observe and have input to the Trust's work while retaining their own independent identities. As a result Forces2Canaries, Proud Canaries and Barclay End Norwich joined the Trust board.
On 1st February 2018 the Trust signed its historic Memorandum of Understanding with the Club, only the second British trust to do so.


What Are The Best Methods To Find Cheap Essay On The Web?
Students who cannot compose good essays often look for people to complete their assignments instead of them. If you're in a similar situation and you want to get a cheap essay, you may start your search on the Internet. The web is full of different sources that won't require large payment for writing your paper.
If you want to buy a paper for a very cheap price, there is no sense in approaching professionals. However, some uneducated but talented writers may agree to complete your order for small money. You may use social networks or visit academic forums to find them. Keep in mind, however, that you should examine an essay written by an amateur very carefully before you submit it to your teacher. You might need to make little changes in it and correct some mistakes.
If you want to be sure in the quality of an ordered paper, you should make a deal with a qualified specialist. Their prices are rather high of course, but it's still possible to find professional essay writers with the comparatively low cost of services. Visit large job boards and look for contact details and pricing information of different freelancers. It's very likely that some of them will have fairly reasonable prices.
This option should be interesting for people who want to order different types of academic papers regularly. The prices of online agencies aren't cheap but they have discounts for regular clients. Also, the staff of such a company consists of many writers with different qualifications, so you won't have to search for another source if you need not an essay but a physics term paper, for example. If you've never seen this sort of agencies, look closer to this site.
You don't necessarily need to look for writers on the web. You may find them in your local area too. The cheapest method is to ask a classmate to compose your essay. Make sure to select a student who usually gets excellent grades for their own academic assignments. If you're lucky, they won't ask for any payment at all.
It's also possible to find professional academic writers in your town. Spread the word among your friends, visit academic centers, and look through newspaper ads. The advantage of working with local specialists is that they aren't likely to be scammers because you can easily find them if they provide you with low-quality services.


The Diorshow Maximizer 3D mascara base and the Diorshow Mono palette have been reworked by Peter Philips as a customizable makeup inspired by the professional techniques drawn from backstage at the shows.
Behind the scenes at the shows, Peter Philips, Creative and Image Director of Dior Makeup, takes his inspiration from the House's couture creations to give structure to the models' eyes. Influenced by these innovative techniques, the Dior research laboratories offer a new formula enriched with Diorshow Maximizer 3D. This three-in-one mascara base deep-down revitalizes and heightens the eyelids' natural dimensions through the addition of a regenerating care product. When combined with Diorshow mascara, the intensity of its color is revealed as it simultaneously triples lash volume. The Pro Liner, available in four new colors, gives eyes a devastatingly feminine allure.
To further enhance the eyes, the Diorshow Mono palette has been reinvented with thirty new shades to tint eyelids with dazzling colors that boast long-lasting hold. Translating the look of the House's fabrics into makeup, it comes in four new couture effects: satin, matte, pearlized and lamé. To lend that all-important final touch, All-in-Brow 3D eyeshadow highlights the eyebrows through high-definition contouring.
