And the soul is incredibly happy.
To be as the angels above.
And the golden bells gently ringing.
And in that place there shall be no night.
This our paradise we shall call.
I like the sound of music, birds, and the wind, but the sweetest sound I have ever heard is the sound of rain. I listen to the rain falling on the roof and it calms my troubled heart. It helps me to forget my failures, my fears, and my resentments in my moments of depression. In my moments of happiness the falling rain enhances my pleasure. In my moments of in between, which is generally, the rain lends itself to my melancholy pensive mood of sad happiness and happy sadness.
The rain is so cheerful and yet seemingly so sad. It does make everything so fresh, the air, the grass, the flowers, and the very world itself. And that wonderful, rich, harmonious sound the rain makes when it taps its sweet tones on everything around, the ground, an old tin bucket, a puddle of water, never ceases to delight me.
I listen to the rain with somewhat the same reverence I listen to a prayer being said, or a beautiful ancient songbeing sung. In the night especially the rain sings melodious songs to my soul. Contentment comes to me when I listen to the rain, though it is often mingled with a sad regret, or a sense of having lost something exquisite.
There is something romantic, mystical, serene, and beautiful about the falling rain. When the rain falls one becomes enraptured by the ageless sound.
Wafted by the rushing wind so fair.
And feel wonder at its awesome form.
the fresh, clean smell of the rain.
A glance at the trees, and then at the grass, a glance at the flowers in May and the bird of blue, and there is no beginning or end. Change stops at the edge of the woods. Modernization creeps no farther. They cannot stop the wild grape from twining, or rob the seasons of their charm.
The bulldozers crush and devastate, but the grass peeks through when they are gone. I walk beneath the old sun again as the twigs are all decked in their green finery, and the sky is a replendent blue. I feel the tender caresses of the wind, and hear the hum and silence as to my mind comes a flicker of happiness.
Labor improves the spirit. It wears us down and wrings us out until we haven't anything left that is vile or vicious. Hard work gives us humility rather than vanity, and honest pride rather than conceit. The person who gives himself to tiresome, arduous, and often monotonous labor becomes a little less selfish, for labor is a form of self-sacrifice.
A person must deny himself, his time, his energy, and his pleasures to perform that great oblation, work. The person who comes home at night weary, and gladly flops into bed has paid his debt to society and to himself.
Work heals our wounds, while idleness only aggravates them more. Productive hours pass smoothly, while unproductive hours clog and grind by. Labor is the key in the lock which opens all of life's doors, while for absence of labor all doors remain locked. It is in lifting our load, and tugging at our task where all the honor and happiness lies.
Time races far too fast to suit me. I like to contemplate, but while I am contemplating two or three years pass-a lifetime passes away. I contemplate about life, beauty, truth, goodness, God, the essence of being, wildflowers, kittens, or the sounds in a forgotten valley. I contemplate the stars, the wonders of the universe, the butterflies, the snowflakes, and suddenly I have grown older, much older. Why can't time stop a little while? Why can't time stop and rest awhile? Where is it going so fast? Why is our being locked in time's power?
I hear a blue jay in a nearby tree proclaiming loudly that he is there. The jay crows at the sun, and a happy fellow he seems bathed in the bright morning light. On and on he sings at the top of his lungs-sings, "'tis a glorious day". Across the sky he flies singing even then.
I hear the wind rising and falling, stirring the leaves, and gently flooding my brow with coolness. A momentary silence then, neither jay nor wind, as there is a pause like between heartbeats or between breaths. Now jay and wind both resound with new vigor as if refreshed by their respite.
It is a peaceful day of quiet and simple joys, a kind and gentle day in this place at this time. No ill wind blows this day, and no bird of prey is about for it is a day of innocence as love rules the hour. I wish all days were such as it would make living a simple task, and life seem blessed. The jay is singing once more in even more pleasant mood. His object no doubt is to grant me peaceful thoughts.
I surveyed the various patterns the sunlight made as it filtered through the treetops, and flickered here and there on the ferns and dead leaves that made up the forest floor. The air was damp, and smelled of decayed leaves and wood. It was pleasant there, though an unpleasant member of that realm, a mosquito buzzed about my face. A daddy-longlegs spider shuffled through the leaves at my feet, and then ventured to crawl up my pant's leg. After flicking him off with my finger, I leaned my head back against the rough bark of the tree.
I closed my eyes and listened to the soft whispering of the wind rustling the treetops, and listened to the faint, but steady hum of insects buzzing in those woods. I heard various birds singing in the distance. It waslate afternoon with white clouds hanging lazily in the sky, and though it was not yet fall, it was late summer and the leaves had already begun to fall.
Slowly it became darker in that deep valley as the sunlight shone only on the tops of the trees, and barely peeked from the hillside in front of me. I was witness to an ancient scene that generations of my ancestors before me had witnessed.


The Advanced MicroSystems and Circuits (AMSaC) group was formed at Michigan State University in 2001 by Dr. Andrew Mason. Since its founding, mission of this research group has been to develop innovative integrated circuit and microsystem approaches that enable a bridging between novel nano/micro-sensor technologies and high impact biomedical and environmental applications. While members of the AMSaC group typically develop expertise in solid-state devices, microelectronics, and microfabrication techniques, an inherent focus of the group is system-level integration of principles from multiple science/engineering/medicine disciplines across multiple design scales, from nano-technologies to software architectures, to address the challenges of autonomous wearable/implantable sensory microsystem. To that end, in recent years, we have greatly expanded our contributions in hardware efficient machine learning algorithms for embedded real-time signal processing of sensor and sensor array responses.
One area of major contribution for the AMSaC group is miniaturized electrochemical sensor arrays featuring nanostructured biological and chemical interfaces. From the development of electrochemical instrumentation circuits with a variety of high performance characteristics to pioneering lab-on-CMOS platforms for integration of sensor arrays with high density microfluidics, we continue to explore innovative approaches that enable electrochemical sensing techniques to resolve the growing demand for biological and chemical sensors in real-world applications.
Other areas of significant contribution include brain-machine-interface (BMI) and sensor technologies for biomedical research. Our work in the BMI field of has focused primarily on implantable neural recording and hardware-efficient spike sorting methods where we have pioneered approaches for massively high channel count recording arrays and recently directed efforts toward adaptive neurotechnologies. Our work in biosensor technologies has focused on development of instrumentation circuits and sensing platforms suitable to record the behavior of membrane protein arrays with many applications to biomedical research and new laboratory and clinical platforms to study and treat antibiotic resistance.
Research in the AMSaC group has historically focused on applications of human health and safety. While we continue this focus, we also strive to contribute to the environmental monitoring and related technologies that will help the world manage the impacts of climate change and adapt to a carbon-free future with energy-efficient smart sensor assistive devices.

In a remarkably civil, low-key, evening December meeting (lasting to near midnight) of the Adams Morgan Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC), proponents of an anti-pop-up, downzoning petition secured a unanimous vote of 7-0 from the ANC in support of a resolution recommending a change in the Lanier Heights zoning designation for that section of Adams Morgan's residential row houses from R-5-B to R-4 and to so inform the District's Zoning Commission and Office of Planning (OP) of that decision.
The circumstances necessitating such a change, which would reduce the allowable height of such Lanier Heights residential structures from 50 to 40 feet, limit the number of units in such structures, and tighten restrictions in the rules on floor to area ratios (FAR) for such structures, were outlined in the ANC's concisely written resolution.
Summary statements of two minutes or less from proponents and opponents of the resolution were allowed toward the end of this five-hour meeting, with the admonition that those who had spoken at the previous, well-attended — by both commissioners and residents — recent community forum held at the Festival Center not speak unless they had changed their minds from their earlier expressions of support or opposition to the Resolution. Those who spoke remained calm and almost dispassionate in stating their views.
The volatility of hot-button Adams Morgan issues appears to be mellowing, as was occasioned, by all accounts, by speakers at the recent Festival Center meeting on the downzoning issue.
In summing up the Commission's observations, Chairman Billy Simpson noted that the ANC had been a stalwart supporter of new apartment developments — this answering any assertion of the ANC being anti-growth — and had received overwhelming support for the downzoning from both residents and residential property owners in Lanier Heights. Long-time ANC Commissioner Wilson Reynolds observed that supporting the resolution was a "no-brainer," but warned that it was "not a perfect solution. . . . "We will still have problems with pop-ups," he predicted.
Editor's Note: We recently reported on the effort to garner neighborhood support in opposing any downzoning thereby allowing residential property owners to expand and convert their houses into condominium properties. See, "Growing Push to Increase Development In Lanier Heights Roils Neighborhood," InTowner, September 2014 issue pdf page 1; http://tinyurl.com/q82ezpt.
See, also, our follow-up report, "Belmont 'Tower' Controversy Argued Before the BZA; Final Ruling Likely to be Appealed," InTowner, July 2004 issue pdf page 10; http://tinyurl.com/l2hyjqg.


The thing about thread is that it is not a single strand, but rather several threads twisted together to create the desired gauge.
The thing about horns and antlers is that sometimes they are bone, sometimes hair: twisted.
The thing about formal dress is that it is all about the threads and how they hang on the individual…not a group uniform. So when Aunty Ester goes to sing in the Sunday choir dressed in her new periwinkle dress, she may stand out, or somehow strangely fit in.
Today, themes of interconnection appears to be prevalent. Seeing how things connect… all things… how the thread of sense we so desire to find is hot and twisted and leading to a place called our own.
To solve problems, take up a thread of sense which, like Ariadne's thread, will lead you through a complex matter.


Who is supremely great. The one and only being, whose existence is free of time, place and similarity to any of the creatures.
Allah's essence is the perfection of greatness. He incomparably great.
His greatness is beyond measure. His nature is Greatness.

A Profile of U.S. Children with Unauthorized Immigrant Parents
How did the U.S. border enforcement picture go in the span of two years from the lowest levels of illegal immigration since 1971 to a spiraling border security and humanitarian crisis? This report draws on enforcement and other data as well as analysis of changing migration trends and policies to tell this story. The authors outline key elements for a new strategy that can succeed over the long term.
With the children of immigrants a growing share of all U.S. children, and federal immigration enforcement and other policies undergoing significant change, some state and local child welfare agencies are developing new ways to improve how they work with immigrant families. This report examines key cultural, linguistic, and legal challenges, and how agencies are adjusting staffing, training, placement, and other policies to tackle them.
Promising Strategies for Reintegration of Migrants Returning to Mexico and Central America
This MPI webinar focuses on reception and reintegration services for returning migrants, along with the heightened pressure policymakers in Mexico and Central America are facing to design systems and programs that support both returnees and the communities in which they settle. Authors of a year-long study of reception and reintegration services in Mexico and the Northern Triangle discuss the findings of their fieldwork.
Reception and reintegration programs for deported and other returning migrants represent a long-term investment for migrant-origin and destination countries, holding the potential to reduce re-migration and permit communities of origin to benefit from the skills migrants learn abroad. This report offers recommendations to make reintegration programs more effective in Mexico and Central America.
Most recent U.S. legal permanent residents could have found themselves at risk of green-card denial had they been assessed under a proposed Trump administration public-charge rule that would apply a significantly expanded test to determine likelihood of future public-benefits use. This analysis finds the effects would fall most heavily on women, children, and the elderly, while potentially shifting legal immigration away from Latin America.
The Houston metro area, home to 1.6 million immigrants, is diverse and rapidly growing. This report sketches the area's immigrant population, examining top origin countries, key socioeconomic measures, and more. It also explores how Hurricane Harvey affected the immigrant population, and how national policy changes under the Trump administration are being felt locally, including by DACA recipients and asylum seekers.
The Trump administration has significantly cranked up the immigration enforcement machinery in the U.S. interior. Yet even as arrests and deportations are up in the early Trump months, they remain less than half their peaks. This report demonstrates how pushback from California and other "sanctuary" locations makes it quite unlikely that ICE will be able to match record enforcement levels.

How to Draw an Otter
Otter is a semi aquatic animal belonging to the Mustelidae (weasel) family. It is found in some parts of North America, Europe, Africa, and even Asia. Except for the sea otter, all otters live on land beside cold water. Their den is called Holt. They generally enter water for hunting or travelling purposes. They mainly eat fish (crayfish & shellfish), crabs, frogs, and even birds.
How to Draw a Kangaroo
Australian native, Kangaroo belongs to the Family Macropodidae. It is so closely identified with Australia that it has been adopted as the country's national symbol. Four of its subspecies are the most populous, viz. Western Grey Kangaroo, Eastern Grey Kangaroo, Antilopine Kangaroo, and Red Kangaroo. The Red kangaroo is the largest of all, reaching up to 2 meters in length, while the others fall in the range of 1.1 to 1.4 meters.
How to Draw a Fox
Fox is a relative of wolf, dog, jackal, etc. They are distinguished by a relatively longer muzzle, which is narrower than that of the other members. The length of an adult fox can be maximum 34 inches, including the tail. Owing to their small stature, foxes feed on small animals, like rabbits, rats, birds, insects etc.
How to Draw a Carnivorous Wolf
The wolf is a member of the biological family of carnivorous and omnivorous mammals. It is the largest among its fellow members and is a beast of the wild. It primarily inhabits the forest and snow covered regions of North America and Eurasia. They feed mainly on mammals, like sheep, deer, goat, etc. About 39 species of wolves have been identified so far, which differ within geography.

A fun, fresh, and cozy nursery for a baby boy with transitional fabrics, vintage furniture, and cottage elements in ocean blue and olive green.
This room was inspired by the fabrics used in the space. I found them, fell in love with them, and knew they had to be in the room. All of the other elements were selected to coordinate with the fabrics. The antique dresser and child sized rocking chair were custom painted to match the fabrics.
My style is vintage cottage. I love painted furniture, antiques, and cottage accessories. This room has all of these elements with a hint of contemporary style to keep it fresh and fun.
My favorite items in the room are the glider rocker (I absolutely love buffalo check fabrics!) and the artwork above the antique blue cabinet. The prints are young and fun and help the space to feel like a nursery.
Find inexpensive antique furniture at antique fairs or consignment shops and paint it to match the room colors to help create instant character in the room. Add contemporary elements in small doses, like the lighting, to keep the room fresh. Select a fabric that you love and run with it--build around this fabric for a pulled together look!
I love the custom made bedding and all the detail…..like the painted dresser. You should try to rotate your pictures….it is hard to look sideways. Five stars!
Was looking at your photos and trying to make sense of them… And it took a few moments for me to realize they were posted sideways. Anyway, it's a nice room, and I'd say it indeed looks warm and cozy.
Well, except for your photos giving me a stiff neck, I'd say your room is pretty nice. I love the changing table, and the wicker baskets, too.

The Beds (and Bucks) County Championships were held at Campbell Park, Milton Keynes on Saturday 5th January 2013.
Note The results are now final following some checks. We found two errors on the team results announced on the day and a minor individual error.
The U13 Boys and Senior/Vet women team results were both tied for first place. The software broke the tie by using the position of the first runner.
However it is generally accepted that the last scoring runner determines the first team home.
So the correct winners of the U13 Boys team award is Luton not Bedford and County.
The correct winners of the Senior/Vet womens' team award is Luton not Bedford Harriers.
We propose to award Gold medals to all tied teams i.e. we will not take the medals awarded yesterday back but will award Luton Gold medals as well in both cases.
However the Trophy will be now be awarded to Luton in both cases.
Should you find any other queries with the results then please advise the Honorary Secretary.
Winners of the Junior Age Groups will be selected to represent the East Region in the London Mini-marathon.

Which roof style is best for your outdoor space – gable, hip, flat or shed?
Archadeck of The Piedmont Triad proves that all roof styles are not created equal. What works for one outdoor structure doesn't always work for another. We can help you decide which roof style would work best for your individual circumstances.
This Greensboro, NC screen porch features a gable roof.
When you make the decision to add an outdoor living space that requires a roof, the style of roof you choose is an important decision. There are many factors that should go into choosing the roof that works best for your home. The first factor is whether the new roof will tie into the roof of your existing home. Another important factor is the location of your structure in conjunction with your existing home or other structures that are located on your property. In many cases, the roof style simply comes down to personal preference. No matter what your circumstances are, learning which roof style will work best for your outdoor space will ensure that your new addition looks like it was made to fit with your home.
This photo shows the interior of the same 3 season room as shown above. The vaulted ceiling gives the space an open feel.
The most commonly used roof styles in outdoor living design are the gable, shed, hip and flat roof. A gable roof is the one that looks like it triangle. A good deal of light enters your room when the gable (or triangle end) is open. This roof style creates an open and airy effect.
Hip roofs are also a popular choice among homeowners in the Piedmont Triad area. A hip roof has 3 or 4 sides that descent from one point. The popularity of hip roofs is in part because many of today's homes have hip roofs. Archadeck of the Piedmont Triad always reviews your home's roof style(s) in helping determine which roof style will work best on your outdoor space.
Another roof style which use makes sense in certain situations is a shed roof. A shed roof slopes downward from the house connection. Shed roofs are simple in nature and work great with a tie-in to one-story home needing a low roof connection. Having architectural elements and upstairs windows that won't allow a roof or certain roofs would cover or cause view obstructions also make great candidates for shed roofs. Flat roofs can also make a viable option where the situation calls for a roof style that will not intrude on structural or design elements.
Notice how this roof style makes the perfect fit for the architecture and window placement of the existing home.
One misconception we would like to address is the idea that a flat roof is just that – flat. Flat roof styles are not completely flat. Archadeck of the Piedmont Triad always designs a flat roof with a slight incline. The incline prevents pooling of water on the roof itself which can lead to structural problems in the future.
To see more examples of roof styles that will help you decide the perfect fit for your outdoor oasis visit our screened porch gallery, and our 3 and 4 season room gallery located on our website.

Sincere terms of endearment. Sweet words of vibrational goodness....may they be like honey; like nectar on the lips of the Divine in form. May we speak them to ourselves and others as loving encouragement and support. May we speak them to acknowledge, feel, and connect with the hearts of those around us.
"Oh honey bunny, I'm so sorry." "Oh sweetness, how wonderful." "Oh beautiful one, I hear you." "Hello, love."
How often I speak to my own heart this way, and to the beloveds who appear before me is showing life and the Universe how I wish to be loved and spoken to with heartfelt authenticity.
Nothing untrue or fabricated, just sweetness bursting forth from the lips of compassion and loving-kindness.

Zika Virus Information
What is the Zika Virus?
Zika is a disease caused by Zika virus that is spread to people primarily through the bite of an infected Aedes species mosquito. The most common symptoms of Zika are fever, rash, joint pain, and conjunctivitis (red eyes). The illness is usually mild with symptoms lasting for several days to a week. People usually don't get sick enough to go to the hospital, and they very rarely die of Zika. The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) maintains an updated page about the current state of Zika worldwide.
What are the symptoms of Zika?
About 1 in 5 people infected with Zika will get sick. For people who get sick, the illness is usually mild. For this reason, many people might not realize they have been infected. The most common symptoms of Zika virus disease are fever, rash, joint pain, or conjunctivitis (red eyes). Symptoms typically begin 2 to 7 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. (Source: CDC)
How is Zika transmitted?
Zika is primarily transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes, the same mosquitoes that spread Chikungunya and dengue. These mosquitoes are aggressive daytime biters and they can also bite at night. Mosquitoes become infected when they bite a person already infected with the virus. Infected mosquitoes can then spread the virus to other people through bites. It can also be transmitted from a pregnant mother to her baby during pregnancy or around the time of birth. The CDC is studying how some mothers can pass the virus to their babies. (Source: CDC)
Is Zika still a concern in Florida?
According to the CDC, "There is no current local transmission of Zika virus in the continental United States, including Florida and Texas, which reported local transmission of Zika virus by mosquitoes in 2016-17.
Health officials believe all of the past cases were from people who contracted the disease while traveling to affected countries. The most affected countries are: South and Central America, Africa, Southeast Asia and parts of the Caribbean. If you intend to travel outside of the United States, check the CDC website for a list of countries affected by the Zika virus. Pregnant women or women trying to become pregnant should be especially vigilant in avoiding mosquito bites. The Zika virus is linked to brain deformities in babies. There is concern that the Zika virus could be transmitted sexually and further research is being conducted.
Zika virus testing is only available through the appropriate County Health Departments. If you have traveled to affected countries and exhibit any of the above symptoms contact your health provider for further screening measures.

Citarizo () foi uma cidade e sé no braço sul do Eufrates, na província romana da Armênia III, identificada com a moderna Ceteriz. Situava-se em Astianena ou Balabitena, uma região entre Másio e Antitauro, ao norte de Comagena e Mesopotâmia. O único bispo residente da sé cujo nome é registrado foi Marciano, que frequentou o Concílio Quinissexto de 692. Não mais um bispado residencial, Citarizo é hoje listada pela Igreja Católica como uma sé titular.

Embora pequena, foi importante à defesa do Império Bizantino contra o Império Sassânida, e o imperador Justiniano  fez um castelo ali, no qual estacionou guarnição sob comando de um duque. Com as reformas justinianas, foi realocada na província de Armênia IV e esteve subordinada à sé de Mitilene. Em 613, foi tomada por Asócio, um general persa sob  .

Chucky TV Show Is Scary, Funny and Smart Says Producer
We are getting a Child's Play TV show next year in the form of Chucky, which is coming to Syfy and USA. Don Mancini, the screenwriter behind the original horror classic and the franchise's creator, is behind bringing the killer doll to the small screen. Now, producer Nick Antosca has shared his praise for the show, saying that it is scary, funny and smart.
Nick Antosca and Don Mancini previously worked together on the series Channel Zero. During a recent interview looking back at the horror anthology series, Antosca was asked about the status of Chucky, which revealed its first teaser trailer over the summer. Antosca was hesitant to dish specifics but here is what he had to say about it.
RELATED: Chucky Will Drop Tons of F-Bombs in Every Episode of the Child's Play TV Show
"Don wrote an awesome show. He's showrunning it, and he had a great writer's room. I'm cautious about talking details, but we're working on it every day. As a Chucky fan, I'll just say I'm over the moon that Brad Dourif is back as Chucky, as well as some other familiar characters, and that I think fans are going to love where Don is taking it, and new audiences as well. It's scary, it's really funny, and it's very smart. Nobody knows Chucky better than he does, and he's pushing the boundaries yet again. I can't wait for everyone to see it next year."
Brad Dourif will indeed be returning to voice the killer doll once more. Dourif has been a huge part of the franchise since the very beginning. The only time the actor didn't voice the character was in last year's Child's Play reboot, which featured Star Wars icon Mark Hamill in the role. The show will be taking place in the same continuity as the original movies and will be ignoring the reboot entirely. David Kirschner and Harley Peyton are executive producing the show alongside Mancini and Antosca. Mancini is also set to direct the first episode.
Chucky picks up after a vintage doll turns up at a suburban yard sale. The seemingly ideal American town is thrust into chaos as a series of horrific murders begin to expose the town's hypocrisies and secrets. At the same time, the arrival of enemies and allies from Chucky's past threatens to expose the truth behind the killings. The show will also dive into the killer doll's untold origins as a seemingly ordinary child who somehow became this notorious monster.
There is no word currently on casting, nor has it been revealed what characters from the franchise specifically will be turning up. To date, the series has produced seven movies in the main continuity, in addition to 2019's remake. The most recent entry in the main continuity was 2017's Cult of Chucky, which Don Mancini directed. The show will be picking up after those events. No firm release date has been set but Chucky is currently set to arrive sometime in 2021. We'll be sure to keep you posted as any further details are made available. This news comes to us via io9.

While rappers like Dream Warriors and K-os were underground upstarts in the 90s to early 2000s, no Canadian artist was able to achieve mainstream popularity until former child-actor-turned-rapper, Drake, put Canada on the hip-hop map – becoming one of the biggest-selling and influential rap stars in the world. From co-founding Canadian record label OVO (October's Very Own) Sound to coining the city's unofficial nickname, "The 6", Drake is Canada's biggest hypeman. Not only did he use the CN Tower for his Views album art, he even has a tattoo of the iconic Toronto landmark on his arm and helped to introduce fellow Canadian, The Weeknd, to the rest of the world.

The Governor General's Performing Arts Awards for Lifetime Artistic Achievement are the foremost honours presented for excellence in the performing arts, in the categories of dance, classical music, popular music, film, and radio and television broadcasting.[129] They were initiated in 1992 by then Governor General Ray Hnatyshyn, and winners receive $25,000 and a medal struck by the Royal Canadian Mint.[130]
With the migration of many Southern rural whites to industrial cities during the Great Depression and World War II, country music was carried into new areas and exposed to new influences, such as blues and gospel music. The nostalgic bias of country music, with its lyrics about grinding poverty, orphaned children, bereft lovers, and lonely workers far from home, held special appeal during a time of wide-scale population shifts.
Many traditional country artists are present in eastern and western Canada. They make common use of fiddle and pedal steel guitar styles. Some notable Canadian country artists include Shania Twain, Anne Murray, k.d. lang, Gordon Lightfoot, Buffy Sainte-Marie, George Canyon, Blue Rodeo, Tommy Hunter, Rita MacNeil, Stompin' Tom Connors, Stan Rogers, Ronnie Prophet, Carroll Baker, The Rankin Family, Ian Tyson, Johnny Reid, Paul Brandt, Jason McCoy, George Fox, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Hank Snow, Don Messer, Wilf Carter, Michelle Wright, Terri Clark, Prairie Oyster, Family Brown, Johnny Mooring, Marg Osburne, Lindsay Ell, Doc Walker, Emerson Drive, The Wilkinsons, Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans, Crystal Shawanda, Dean Brody, Shane Yellowbird, Gord Bamford, Chad Brownlee, The Road Hammers, Rowdy Spurs, Colter Wall and The Higgins.
In 2007, Canada joined the controversial Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement talks,[118] whose outcome will have a significant impact on the Canadian music industry.[117][119] In 2010 Canada introduced new copyright legislation.[120] The amended law makes hacking digital locks illegal, but enshrine into law the ability of purchasers to record and copy music from a CD to portable devices.[120]
There's a long tradition of African-Americans playing old-time music, from blues legends Blind Blake, the Reverend Gary Davis and Josh White to artists such as the Mississippi Mud Steppers and Howard "Louie Bluie" Armstrong, whose early ragtime outfit, the Tennessee Chocolate Drops, has provided a lasting influence—and this modern-day act with its name. The Carolina Chocolate Dropsformed in 2005 at the Black Banjo Gathering in Boone, N.C., and since then the young trio has been determined to prove that "black folk were a huge part of the stringband tradition." What they've also done is dust off a musical form seen today as either a novelty or the exclusive provenance of ethnomusicologists. To paraphrase Rakim's immortal words, these Drops ain't no joke: Their enthusiasm for the tradition is obvious even as the trio spans from traditional arrangements (the rollicking fiddle rave-ups "Trouble in Your Mind" and "Cindy Gal") to self-penned works (the particularly terrific "Kissin' and Cussin'") and stringband makeovers of modern-day works (a hip-hop influenced cover of Blu Cantrell's "Hit 'em Up Style (Oops!)" and Tom Waits' "Trampled Rose"). Several generations removed from the origins of their chosen idiom, the Carolina Chocolate Drops are nonetheless the genuine article.—Corey DuBrowa

Sometimes it takes an 'American Woman' to break into the US charts, and that's what Canadian powerhouse rock group, The Guess Who did in 1970, being the first Canadian group to have a US chart topper since 1954. Powered by the soulful vocals of Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman's driving guitar and sardonic songwriter, the Winnipeg-based band found international success throughout the 60s and 70s, until disbanding when Bachman left the group and went on to form the hugely successful, Bachman-Turner Overdrive, with their hit single 'You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet'.
Canadian artists and Canadian ensembles were generally forced to turn toward the United States to establish healthy long lasting careers during the 1960s.[85] Canada would produce some of the world's most influential singer-songwriters during this time.[86] Among the most notable is Winnipeg's Neil Young who has been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, Canada's Walk of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice.[87] Leonard Cohen has been inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame and is also a Companion of the Order of Canada.[88] Folk legend Joni Mitchell is an Alberta native, and has been inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Walt Grealis of Toronto started in the music business with Apex Records in 1960, the Ontario distributor for Compo Company. He later joined London Records, where he worked until February 1964, when he then established RPM weekly trade magazine. From the first issue of RPM Weekly on February 24, 1964 to its final issue on November 13, 2000, RPM was the defining charts in Canada.[89]
Just as Loretta Lynn sang about female empowerment in the 1960s, so did Tammy Wynette. The one-time hairdresser turned her marital strife into musical gold via such classics as "Apartment # 9," "D-I-V-O-R-C-E," and "Stand By Your Man" –- and that was before she married George Jones. No other female singer sang about heartbreak with as much conviction and power -- influencing generations to come in the process.
By the time of Canadian Confederation (1867), songwriting had become a favored means of personal expression across the land. In a society in which most middle-class families now owned a harmonium or piano, and standard education included at least the rudiments of music, the result was often an original song.[41] Such stirrings frequently occurred in response to noteworthy events, and few local or national excitements were allowed to pass without some musical comment.[42][43]
In what was then known as New France, the first formal ball was given by Louis-Théandre Chartier de Lotbinière (1612–1688) on 4 Feb. 1667.[19] Louis Jolliet (1645–1700) is on record as one of the first classically trained practicing musicians in New France, although history has recognized him more as an explorer, hydrographer and voyageur.[20] Jolliet is said to have played the organ, harpsichord, flute, and trumpet.[20] In 1700, under British rule at this time, an organ was installed in Notre-Dame Basilica in Montreal and military bands gave concerts on the Champ de Mars.[16] A French-born priest, René Ménard, composed motets around 1640, and a second Canadian-born priest, Charles-Amador Martin, is credited with the plainchant music for the Sacrae familiae felix spectaculum, in celebration of the Holy Family feast day in 1700.[7]
From within the UK, few country musicians achieved widespread mainstream success. Tom Jones, by this point near the end of his peak success as a pop singer, had a string of country hits in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The Bee Gees had some fleeting success in the genre, with one country hit as artists ("Rest Your Love on Me") and a major hit as songwriters ("Islands in the Stream"); Barry Gibb, the band's usual lead singer and last surviving member, acknowledged that country music was a major influence on the band's style.[124] Singer Engelbert Humperdinck, while charting only once in the U.S. country top 40 with "After the Lovin'," achieved widespread success on both the U.S. and UK pop charts with his faithful covers of Nashville country ballads such as "Release Me," "Am I That Easy to Forget" and "There Goes My Everything." The songwriting tandem of Roger Cook and Roger Greenaway wrote a number of country hits, in addition to their widespread success in pop songwriting; Cook is notable for being the only Briton to be inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler initially started her career making country albums and was even nominated for Top New Female Vocalist at the Academy of Country Music Awards before her huge crossover hit "Total Eclipse of the Heart" lead her towards more commercial pop and rock. In 2013, Tyler returned to her roots, blending the country elements of her early work with the rock of her successful material on her album Rocks and Honey which featured a duet with American country icon Vince Gill. Tyler subsequently announced that she was making a new country rock album in Nashville with John Carter Cash, son of country music legends Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash, slated for release in 2018.
Lucero is perfectly alt-country—half rock bombast, half country swagger. The Memphis band is a touring machine, amassing devoted fans wherever they go, and 2009's 1372 Overton Park helped capture that excitement in the studio thanks in large part to its horn section. Like that brassy homage to the band's hometown of Memphis, Lucero also named 1372 Overton Park after the address of its Memphis loft space.—Hilary Saunders
Robbie Fulks is an unlikely candidate for country insurgentista. Born in Pennsylvania and cutting his teeth at Gerde's Folk City, he landed in Chicago where he taught at the Old Town School of Folk Music. Along the way, the songwriting multi-instrumentalist fell under the sway of '50s country—and sought to distill the sounds coming from WSM-AM during the day—right down to the talk/jingle-evoking "The Scrapple Song." Working with the unlikely team of engineer Steve Albini, Buck Owens' Buckaroo Tom Bromley on steel guitar and Lou Whitney and the Skeletons, Country Love Songs moved from punk fatal ("She Took A Lot of Pills and Died") to the fiddle-reelin' ("Every Kind of Music (But Country)"), grief-immersed, steel-drenched and classic country-invoked salve ("The Buck Starts Here") to unrepentant sin-embracing ("We'll Burn Together"). Stately, clear and willing to cornpone without schticking it up, Fulks' rubber cement voices stretches like half truth three hours after curfew.—Holly Gleason
All controversy aside, the trio of Natalie Maines, Martie Maguire, and Emily Robison managed to create a musical sound that appealed to a mixture of traditional minded fans, as well as newcomers to the format. In a time period where many artists were starting to sound alike, the Dixie Chicks managed to stay true to their Texas sound –- giving the country format some of its' most outstanding music of the period.
Canada's first nationwide music awards began as a reader poll conducted by Canadian music industry trade magazine RPM Weekly in December 1964.[96] A similar balloting process continued until 1970 when the RPM Gold Leaf Awards, as they were then known, were changed to the Juno Awards.[96] The Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences held the first Juno Award ceremony in 1975.[97] This was in response to rectifying the same concerns about promotion of Canadian artists that the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission had.[96]
Alternative country, or alternative country rock[1] (sometimes alt-country,[2] insurgent country,[3] or Americana[4]) is a loosely defined subgenre of country music and rock music, which includes acts that differ significantly in style from mainstream country music and pop country music. Alternative country artists are often influenced by alternative rock. However, the term has been used to describe country music bands and artists that have incorporated influences from alternative rock, indie rock, roots rock, bluegrass, neotraditional country, punk rock, rockabilly, punkabilly, honky-tonk, outlaw country, folk rock, indie folk, folk revival, hard rock, R&B, country rock, heartland rock, and Southern rock.
In 1925, the Canadian Performing Rights Society was formed to administer public performance and royalties for composers and lyricists. It became known as the Composers, Authors and Publishers Association of Canada (CAPAC).[62] Toronto-born Murray Adaskin (1906–2002) was a violinist, composer, conductor and teacher at the University of Saskatchewan. From 1923 to 1936 he was an orchestral and chamber musician with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, he was later named head of music at the University of Saskatchewan.[63] He was a composer-in-residence at the University of Saskatchewan, the first appointment of this type in Canada.[64]
Drawing at the well alongside Randy Newman and Townes Van Zandt, the laconic, demure Lovett is a hard-luck romantic unopposed to good humor or the occasional murder ballad. Rarely eliciting emotional extremes, he's a superb magician nonetheless; with a quick turn of phrase listeners are transported into new skin. When Lovett sings, "put down that flyswatter, and pour me some ice water" on the five-star Joshua Judges Ruth, I'm rising early for carpenter's work on a hot July morning in southeast Texas. If alt-country takes traditional country songs and adds new elements, Lovett pulls the genre in a more soulful direction with his wry wit always on full display.—Jeff Elbel
There's nothing really flashy to say about the career of George Strait. He didn't really break any musical ground nor did he become a trend-setter in how his music was made or marketed. But, he proved that there has always been a market for knowing what you do –- and doing it well. To this day, he has had more singles top the charts than any other country performer, and his recent string of sell-outs in Las Vegas for 2016 shows prove that audiences are still clamoring for hits like "All My Ex's Live in Texas."
Country influences combined with Punk rock and alternative rock to forge the "cowpunk" scene in Southern California during the 1980s, which included bands such as The Long Ryders, Lone Justice and The Beat Farmers, as well as the established punk group X, whose music had begun to include country and rockabilly influences.[91] Simultaneously, a generation of diverse country artists outside of California emerged that rejected the perceived cultural and musical conservatism associated with Nashville's mainstream country musicians in favor of more countercultural outlaw country and the folk singer-songwriter traditions of artists such as Woody Guthrie, Gram Parsons and Bob Dylan.
The Tamworth Country Music Festival began in 1973 and now attracts up to 100,000 visitors annually. Held in Tamworth, New South Wales (country music capital of Australia), it celebrates the culture and heritage of Australian country music. During the festival the CMAA holds the Country Music Awards of Australia ceremony awarding the Golden Guitar trophies. Other significant country music festivals include the Whittlesea Country Music Festival (near Melbourne) and the Mildura Country Music Festival for "independent" performers during October, and the Canberra Country Music Festival held in the national capital during November. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYnfhM4KCyw


This tutorial is intended to present to you the basics (and common extras) of writing programs using the Win32 API. The language used is C, most C++ compilers will compile it as well. As a matter of fact, most of the information is applicable to any language that can access the API, inlcuding Java, Assembly and Visual Basic. I will not however present any code relating to these languages and you're on your own in that regard, but several people have previously used this document in said languages with quite a bit of success.
This tutorial will not teach you the C language, nor will it tell you how to run your particular compiler (Borland C++, Visual C++, LCC-Win32, etc...) I will however take a few moments in the appendix to provide some notes on using the compilers I have knowledge of.
If you don't know what a macro or a typedef are, or how a switch() statement works, then turn back now and read a good book or tutorial on the C language first.
The source provided in the example ZIP file is not optional! I don't include all the code in the text itself, only that which is relevant to whatever I'm currently discussing. In order to see how this code fits in with the rest of the program, you must take a look at the source provided in the ZIP file.
Read the whole thing! If you have a question during one section of the tutorial just have a little patience and it might just be answered later on. If you just can't stand the thought of not knowing, at least skim or search (yes computers can do that) the rest of the document before asking the nice folks on IRC or by email.
Another thing to remember is that a question you might have about subject A might end up being answered in a discussion of B or C, or maybe L. So just look around a little.
Ok I think that's all the ranting I have to do for the moment, lets try some actual code.
If you are a complete beginner lets make sure you are capable of compiling a basic windows application. Slap the following code into your compiler and if all goes well you should get one of the lamest programs ever written.
Remember to compile this as C, not C++. It probably doesn't matter, but since all the code here is C only, it makes sense to start off on the right track. In most cases, all this requires if you add your code to a .c file instead of a .cpp file. If all of this hurts your head, just call the file test.c and be done with it.
If that doesn't work, your first step is to read whatever errors you get and if you don't understand them, look them up in the help or whatever documents accompany your compiler. Make sure you have specified a Win32 GUI (NOT "Console") project/makefile/target, whatever applies to your compiler. Unfortunately I can't help much with this part either, as errors and how to fix them vary from compiler to compiler (and person to person).
Always NULL for Win32 programs.
The command line arguments as a single string. NOT including the program name.
An integer value which may be passed to ShowWindow(). We'll get to this later.
hInstance is used for things like loading resources and any other task which is performed on a per-module basis. A module is either the EXE or a DLL loaded into your program. For most (if not all) of this tutorial, there will only be one module to worry about, the EXE.
hPrevInstance used to be the handle to the previously run instance of your program (if any) in Win16. This no longer applies. In Win32 you ignore this parameter.
WINAPI specifies the calling convention and is defined as _stdcall. If you don't know what this means, don't worry about it as it will not really affect us for the scope of this tutorial. Just remember that it's needed here.
You will find that many of the normal keywords or types have windows specific definitions, UINT for unsigned int, LPSTR for char* etc... Which you choose is really up to you. If you are more comfortable using char* instead of LPSTR, feel free to do so. Just make sure that you know what a type is before you substitute something else.
Just remember a few things and they will be easy to interpret. An LP prefix stands for Long Pointer. In Win32 the Long part is obsolete so don't worry about it. And if you don't know what a pointer is, you can either 1) Go find a book or tutorial on C, or 2) just go ahead anyway and screw up a lot. I'd really recommend #1, but most people go with #2 (I would :). But don't say I didn't warn you.
Next thing is a C following a LP indicates a const pointer. LPCSTR indicates a pointer to a const string, one that can not or will not be modified. LPSTR on the other hand is not const and may be changed.
You might also see a T mixed in there. Don't worry about this for now, unless you are intentionally working with Unicode, it means nothing.

Q: Yet another difficult logarithmic integral This question is a follow-up to MSE#3142989.
Two seemingly innocent hypergeometric series ($\phantom{}_3 F_2$)
$$ \sum_{n\geq 0}\left[\frac{1}{4^n}\binom{2n}{n}\right]^2\frac{(-1)^n}{2n+1}\qquad \sum_{n\geq 0}\left[\frac{1}{4^n}\binom{2n}{n}\right]^2\frac{1}{2^n(2n+1)}$$
can be reduced to the logarithmic integrals
$$ \int_{0}^{1}\frac{\text{arctanh}(\sqrt{x})}{\sqrt{(1-x)(2-x)}}\,dx,\qquad\int_{0}^{1}\frac{\frac{1-x}{1+x}\log(x)}{\sqrt{x(1+x^2)}}\,dx\tag{A,B}$$
by FL-expansions and Fourier series, or directly by semi-integration by parts.
The issue is that neither (A) or (B) seem to be manageable through standard substitutions, the help of computer algebra systems or prayers to special deities, so I hope human beings are able to provide better insights. A promising substitution for (A) is $x=\frac{3-\cosh z}{2}$.

A: Long Comment: Notes on evaluating $I_A$:
I first found the equivalent integral
$$I_A=2 \int_0^1 \frac{\sinh ^{-1}(x)}{x \sqrt{1-x^2}} \, dx\tag{1}$$
Integrating (1) by parts I then found
$$I_A=2 \int_0^1 \frac{\log \left(\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}+1}{x}\right)}{\sqrt{x^2+1}} \, dx\tag{2}$$
Then since
$$\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+1}}=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n \binom{2 n}{n}}{4^n}\,  x^{2 n}$$
we obtain using (2)
$$I_A=2 \sum _{n=0}^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n \binom{2 n}{n}}{4^n}\, \int_0^1 x^{2 n}\log \left(\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}+1}{x}\right) \, dx $$
Then using Mathematica
$$\int_0^1 x^{2 n} \log \left(\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}+1}{x}\right) \, dx=\frac{\sqrt{\pi }\, \Gamma \left(n+\frac{3}{2}\right)}{(2 n+1)^2\, \Gamma (n+1)}$$
$$I_A=2 \sum _{n=0}^{\infty } \frac{(-1)^n \binom{2 n}{n}}{4^n}\,\frac{\sqrt{\pi }\, \Gamma \left(n+\frac{3}{2}\right)}{(2 n+1)^2\, \Gamma (n+1)}=\pi  \, _3F_2\left(\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2};1,\frac{3}{2};-1\right)$$

UPDATE 23/03/2019
In thinking about Jack D'Aurizio's comment below: I think the relationship between the integrals and Euler sums can perhaps be found by proving and then making use of (3) and (4)
$$\int_0^1 x^n \tanh ^{-1}\left(\sqrt{x}\right) \, dx=\frac{1}{n+1}\sum _{k=1}^{n+1} \frac{1}{2 k-1}\tag{3}$$
$$\int_0^1 x^{2n} \tanh ^{-1}\left(\sqrt{x}\right) \, dx=\frac{1}{2n+1}\sum _{k=1}^{2n+1} \frac{1}{2 k-1}\tag{4}$$
for Integrals A and B respectively.
In regard to integral A this looks difficult because it involves simplifying something like:
$$I_A=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \int_0^1  \left(\sum _{n=0}^{\infty } \binom{2 n}{n} \frac{x^n}{4^n}\right) \left(\sum _{n=0}^{\infty } \binom{2 n}{n} \frac{x^n}{8^n} \right) \tanh ^{-1}\left(\sqrt{x}\right) \,dx$$
I get stuck trying to simplify the Cauchy Product.
The proof may be easier in regard to integral B since
$$\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty } \binom{2 n}{n} \frac{x^{2 n}}  {4^n}  $$
giving
$$I_B=\sqrt{2} \int_0^1\frac{ \tanh ^{-1}\left(\sqrt{x}\right)}{\sqrt{(1-x) (x+1)}}\; dx =\sqrt{2}\; \sum _{n=0}^{\infty } \frac{\binom{2 n}{n} \sum _{k=1}^{2 n+1} \frac{1}{2 k-1}}{4^n (2 n+1)}$$

Walmart employee alleges firing over viral TikTok video
An employee's candid video of a 13-hour shift goes viral, leads to termination from Walmart
A Walmart employee in Florida is claiming that she was fired from her job after she created a TikTok video showcasing her day at work, which went viral. In the video, which has been viewed over 290,000 times, the worker takes viewers through a 13-hour shift during 'inventory day' when she and her coworkers go back and forth between shelves on the floor and the stockroom. The employee, named Steph, mentions that it's the worst inventory she's ever done in 20 years of working at Walmart, and that she's working on 3.5 hours of sleep, having worked 17 hours the previous day.
Though the former employee did not specify what about the TikTok led to her being fired, she mentioned in a later TikTok that the President of Walmart had reportedly viewed her videos. Some viewers of the video warned of the potential implications of using social media in the workplace. The former employee confirmed through other videos that she was at the company for 16 years and is currently filing for unemployment. This incident highlights the potential consequences of sharing information about a workplace on social media, as company policies may prohibit it, and it could lead to termination of employment.

Trump Silver Coin .9999 – The Truth Exposed
If you are a fan of President Donald Trump and wish to reveal your support, you may think about purchasing a Trump coin. Despite the fact that the president has actually not yet minted a brand-new coin, the US Mint is presently issuing $1 gold coins to honor the president.
It's possible that you're not knowledgeable about this reality, so let's have a look at some of the realities about Trump's presidential dollar coins.
1 NFT Launch
2 LGB
3 Presidential Gold Coins
NFT Launch
The previous first lady of the United States, Melania Trump, has announced the launch of a new non-fungible token (NFT) endeavor. This NFT platform will include a series of digital antiques. It will also feature physical artwork and a distinctive device.
According to a declaration provided by her office, the collection is created to highlight "iconic moments" from the administration of President Donald Trump. In addition to the collection of NFTs, the previous first lady stated the earnings will be used to help children aging out of foster care. She will donate an undefined amount to the initiative.
The NFT will be sold through a payment platform called MoonPay. Charge card payments will be accepted. Payments using the SOL cryptocurrency will likewise be accepted.
The collection will be cost a rate of $50 per token. Each NFT will feature an image of the former first lady's blue eyes. An audio recording of her voice will accompany the images. They will be readily available for purchase in between Dec. 16 and Dec. 31.
In December, the former first lady revealed that she would be selling NFTs on her brand-new platform. While the sale went efficiently, the job has actually faced criticism. Some have actually called it a rip-off while others questioned her intentions.
Melania Trump began her modeling career at age sixteen. She has appeared in many high-profile ad campaigns. Her most recent NFT venture is her first openly announced endeavor since leaving the White House.
She has stated that she was "motivated" by the American spirit. She believes that the NFT is a method to give back to children aging out of foster care. However, her press contact has not responded to questions about donations.
In addition to releasing NFTs on her website, the former first lady is also producing a series of advertising campaign. She mentions the Be Best initiative as the factor for producing her NFTs. As part of the campaign, she will be donating a part of the earnings to the National Foster Care Association.
Aside from her new NFT venture, the previous first lady has introduced a line of handcrafted Christmas accessories.
The LGBcoin has actually been in the news for a while now, however one of its most noteworthy champs is its magnate creator, Madison Cawthorn.
For all of his defects, Cawthorn has proven to be a gentleman of the highest order. He's been a good sport in the media and has reportedly even chanced on the task in the past.
Among his more noteworthy achievements is the truth that he's been called to your house of Representatives as one of the most eligible males in the land. That means, as the old stating goes, there's no telling what he'll be performing in the next 4 years.
If he's lucky, Cawthorn could be relegated to the minors for the remainder of the decade. Not a bad deal for a man with a studful of prizes to his name. Besides, a bit of hyphy is never a bad thing.
As for the rest of us, we're a little worried with the possibility of a lil ditty like Cawthorn in our middle. Thankfully for us, he's not the only dubious congressional alumno on the loose.
Presidential Gold Coins
The US Mint began providing Presidential $1 coins in 2007. This series honors previous United States presidents. They are golden colored and feature a picture of the former president on the obverse and a picture of the Statue of Liberty on the reverse. A slogan, "IN GOD WE TRUST", is engraved on the edge of these coins.
These coins are indicated to be used in vending makers, parking meters, and other locations where they can be acquired. The Federal Reserve Banks disperse the coins to their members, banks, and credit unions.
A group of authorities met with the United States Mint to talk about production, product packaging, distribution, and other issues. Based upon this feedback, the Federal Reserve developed methods for future issuance and management of the coins. In the past, celebratory circulating coin programs have actually experienced challenges. To prevent similar problems, the Federal Reserve has actually carried out marketing research and has met with the Mint to establish a program.
The Federal Reserve has actually incorporated feedback from other celebratory flowing coin programs into its technique for the Presidential $1 Coin Program. It has also implemented modifications to its distribution practices, that include automated messages for depository institutions. Eventually, the Federal Reserve will identify the level of demand for the coins before identifying how to handle them.
The very first coin to be provided under the Presidential $1 Coin Act was the George Washington coin. It was launched 2 weeks before the John Adams coin was provided.
This was the very first in a series of four one dollar coins to be provided each year. The designs on these coins have changed with time. Some of the previous coins have actually featured the motto, "IN GOD WE TRUST," on the obverse. Given that 2009, the slogan has actually been transferred to the obverse of all presidential dollar coins.
The Presidential $1 Coin Program has introduced a variety of promotional products. It has actually performed outreach to regional companies, schools, and consumer groups. There are free educational products readily available for anybody interested in the coins.
Nevertheless, it will be up to the Mint to deal with these organizations and schools to make sure that these brand-new coins receive the public attention and media protection that they should have.

Shape from focus is a method for the accurate measurement of the geometrical shape of objects. The measurement principle is the local focus search. Therefore, the method is suitable only for objects with a texture. The shape of the object is extracted from a series of 2D images. The 2D images are acquired while the distance of the measured object from the objective lens continuously changes. The longitudinal coordinate of the corresponding surface point is determined from the maximum of the focus measure function. The focus measure function expresses the quality of focus in a small image area and is calculated from the intensity values of individual pixels of a CCD camera by means of a focus measure operator. We present experimental results that demonstrate the capability of the proposed measurement method. The influence of illumination on the measurement uncertainty is studied. The comparison of the results for various focus measure operators and various light sources is presented.
