"Right Action" is a music video that incorporates static and kinetic typography from Scottish alternative rock band Franz Ferdinand. In the video, as the band performs the song, the music video progressively shows the viewer the lyrics to the song, every time with a different variation as to the form of how the word is written out. Aside from the typography, the music video also contains various images that appear to associate themselves one way or another with the lyrics of the song. When the band is shown in the video they are blended into the background while the images that cover both the background and the foreground of the video have brilliant colors, attracting more attention to the images and typography than the band itself. The blend of typography, color schemes, and almost subliminal messages through its images makes the video keep the viewer ever so attentive.
The video's hyper dynamic display of what appear to be graphs, dissections, charts, maps, diagrams and just overall collage of images manage to take away the conventional meaning behind each of the images that it presents. With the visual implementation of the lyrics into the video, the words displayed manage to give a wholly different meaning to the images that are being shown to the viewer. The images and the words displayed along each other manage to break the mold for the definition of both words and images and manages to create its own universe of meaning where even then band, although playing mostly in the background, are present and are able to interact with them. It is through this action that the band also manages to become part of the "breaking of the mold" that the words in the song are doing with the images.
In the end, the band manages to create a meaning to what they consider to be "Right thoughts, right words, right action" in the form a a highly animated text book, where the typical conventions of words are only taken for granted and the real meaning of both, image and word is only determined by the synergy that the band creates between the both of them. Franz Ferdinand are never shy of creating "arty" musical videos, but when it comes to this particular one, they managed to blend in language and play with it, making the video an enjoyable and intriguing one.

Video games and consoles have been a hot ticket item the last few days and the Black Friday weekend brought some amazing deals. One console that didn't see too much in the way of savings was the Nintendo Switch. We know Nintendo is pretty strict when it comes ot pricing so it isn't too surprising, but one stellar deal that just came up at Walmart applies to the limited Mario Edition Nintendo Switch. It's available for $299, which is the usual price of just the console alone but the sale bundle snags you a carrying case as well as a $20 Nintendo eShop credit thrown in at no extra cost. If you're more of a PlayStation fan, this PS4 Slim + extra controller bundle is down to $249 which basically gets you the controller for free.
Headphones were also a popular buy during the main Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping events, but some great deals still remain. The Bose SoundSport true wireless earbuds are still $30 off at $169 which is about as low as they go outside of huge sales events. The Powerbeats3 are at $99 in a couple of colorways too, saving you around half off their non-sale price. There are also a whole bunch of TVs still on sale with prices to suit all budgets.
Otuside of techie buys, the Instant Pot has been a hit. Walmart has the Instant Pot DUO60 multicooker at $49 right now which matches an amazing offer that Amazon had before it promptly sold out. That's one to snap up if you've been eyeing up an Instant Pot but haven't pulled the trigger just yet. The Dyson V7 Motorhead is also $100 off at Walmart which likely won't last long either. On the other hand, there's a smart alternative in the form of the iRobot Roomba 670 at $197. It can vacuum your floors for you on an automated schedule, navigating your home with its sensor array. You can also voice control it with your Echo devices. It usually goes for nearer $300 when not on sale.
As the name suggests, Walmart's Cyber Week sale is limited in time so you don't have forever to ponder the deals. We suggest that you grab what you need or want while supplies last and prices remain low. You can also check out this guide to the 8 best Cyber Monday deals that are still available for yet more ways to save.

You may think the match is over. Stand firm. It isn't.
You may feel like the bad things in your life are winning. Stand firm. They aren't. You may feel like it's too late for you. Stand firm. It isn't. You may feel weak. Stand firm, you are stronger than you think. You may feel like a nobody. Stand firm. You aren't. You may feel useless. Stand firm. You aren't. You may think you're powerless. Stand firm. You're not. You may think you've been knocked out for good. Stand firm. You haven't been. You may be ready to throw in the towel. Stand firm! You may want to tap out. Stand firm. You may think the match is over. Stand firm. It isn't. You may feel like it is a TKO. Stand firm. It isn't. The TKO happened when Jesus died and rose again and delivered the knock out blow to the devil. Jesus has won this fight and He is in your corner. He is the undisputed heavyweight champion of life and our role is to stand firm in the fight, stand firm in what Jesus has done for you. Stand firm in your forgiveness, stand firm in the hope of eternal life. Stand firm in your faith that with God all things are possible. Stand firm in your belief that God is working in your life. Stand firm in the faith that God can change hearts. Stand firm in your faith that He can bring about forgiveness. Stand firm in the belief that God will help you face that addiction. Stand firm in the belief that God has incredibly great power for those who believe! Stand firm in faith when you want to stand down. You can be knocked down, but never knocked out. You have to fight, but Jesus will never lose the fight and He will not lose you. Don't throw in the towel, throw on the armor.

Develop Job Skills Without Getting Another Degree
In 2014, Derek Attig graduated with a Ph.D. in History from the University of Illinois. Attig is a born communicator. As a high school student, he was editor of his school's newspaper. In college, he wrote press releases and did graphic design for several clubs on campus.
It wasn't a stretch, then, that he wanted to be a historian, a job that requires you to breathe new life into sometimes very old (and sometimes very dull--lookin' at you, 100 Years War) stories. Attig (left) graduated with several awards for writing and teaching under his belt, and a dissertation made up of 109,947 of what he loved best: words. (His dissertation is on bookmobiles in early twentieth-century America; you guessed it, he wrote that many words about how people moved words around the country.)
After graduation, Attig wanted to combine his communication skills with his passion for helping people who were still alive. He took a job in communications and everything was great.
Until the website had to be redone.
"As a graduate student, I learned how to write a lot very quickly," Attig says. "From my training as a historian, I knew how to write content and how to work with a team to determine what we needed out of a website. But I didn't know for sure how to make the site look exactly the way we wanted."
So he went back to school for a four-year web design degree.
So he quit his job to apprentice at a design firm.
So he hired a design firm to make the site for a gazillion dollars.
"I used Lynda.com to help me adapt the skills I learned in graduate school to the new context of web design," Attig says.
Lynda.com is an online learning company. It offers thousands of video tutorials on just about any subject you'd like to learn, like how to create websites or build an app or become a better public speaker. Even better, these tutorials are offered for every skill level, from beginner to expert.
And thanks to Technology Services, Lynda.com is free--like, absolutely, mind-bogglingly free--for all students, faculty, and staff at Illinois. A basic subscription to Lynda.com usually starts at $245 per year.
Attig discovered he could teach himself the specific skills he needed by watching a few clips and then trying his own hand at doing what he'd just learned. Rinse and repeat.
"With the lessons broken down into short videos, I could pick and choose what I needed," he says.
The website was a success. So when Attig joined the Graduate College Career Development Office and started helping graduate students develop the skills they need to get the jobs they want, he introduced them to his old friend Lynda.com.
There are approximately 2,000,000 graduate students enrolled in the U.S. Over 10,000 of them are right here at Illinois.
What do people do with advanced degrees? The real question is, what don't they do.
"People who get advanced degrees have an enormous range of options available to them," Attig says. "This includes faculty careers, staff positions, industry, government, non-profit, you name it, grad students can do it."
In his role as the Assistant Director for Student Outreach, Attig helps a lot of grad students think carefully about what they already know how to do and what they want to do. Then he helps them create a plan to bridge the gap.
The Career Development Office sees over 100 graduate students per month each semester. They use a mix of in-person appointments, all-campus workshops, and tools like Lynda.com to help graduate students develop the skills they need. Between 10-70 people attend each workshop.
Thanks to their time in grad school, grad students already have most of the skills they need to get many kinds of jobs. The top-rated skills that many employers look for include critical thinking, reading, and writing abilities, the ability to conduct research, and technical skills.
"The experience of getting an advanced degree equips a grad student to pursue any number of exciting, interesting career paths. We've worked with students who've become consultants, statisticians for the census bureau, educational technologists, non-profit development specialists, employees at NGOs, research and development experts at pharmaceutical companies, and data scientists. I've also helped grad students and postdocs who have editorial positions in publishing, marketing, and communications jobs," Attig says.
But no one grad program covers all the skills each student needs in order to take any job, of course.
After setting goals and identifying skills, students have to make a concrete plan to develop in particular areas, whether that be programming in R or in public speaking.
That's where Lynda.com comes in.
Students have different needs when it comes to what and how they learn. Online education helps support these diverse needs, but so does traditional higher education.
This is especially true when it comes to graduate education.
Attig says that grad students are particularly well-equipped to use Lynda.com to develp skills because a lot of grad school is already independent and self-directed.
"Because grad students already have the drive and ability to learn on their own, Lynda.com is perfect for them," he says.
In this way, Lynda.com is like other online learning environments like Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). Studies show that online learning works best for students who can motivate themselves to learn in a non-traditional environment.
Students who use Lynda.com are both student and teacher at the same time. They have to decide what they want to learn and then find the best course or courses to teach them. And, of course, they have to make themselves practice.
"With Lynda.com, and in concert with other resources, the student is in charge of their own development. There's no one size fits all answer; instead, there are a lot of tutorials to choose from based upon what the student wants to do," Attig says.
Using Lynda.com for the first time might feel like being a kid let loose in candy store with a Black Card clutched in one sweaty hand.
But Attig says the Career Development Office staff work hard to help students not feel overwhelmed by their choices--or by learning something new.
By the time they're introduced to Lynda.com, grad students have thought carefully about their career goals by meeting with staff or going through career development workshops like GradMAP (logo on left). GradMAP is a ninety-minute interactive workshop that helps grad students set goals, identify skills, and make plans to connect with campus resources to get those skills. For more information, see grad.illinois.edu/careers/GradMAP.
This means that students come to Lynda.com knowing what they want to do, and how courses offered by the site will help them get to where they want to be.
And they often rely on the recommendations of their advisors, all of whom, like Attig, were grad students once themselves. Many of the humanities and arts students Attig works with, for instance, want to go into communications-heavy fields. For these students, he often recommends Lynda.com courses on Adobe InDesign and CSS.
"I recommend those because those were the ones I used when I transitioned from grad school to my first post-Ph.D. job in marketing and communications. I remember those courses well so I'm quick to pass them on to others," Attig says.

The Casino Star Theatre opened on January 13, 1913, as the "Casino Theatre," an unfinished but functional "amusement hall" and movie theatre. Within six months, entrepreneur S. M. Duggins had installed chandeliers inside and terra cotta rosettes on the arched façade, but the Casino reached its full visual glory in July 1915, when its ornate Beaux-Arts façade, featuring Ionic columns and statuary, arrived from Philadelphia.
The Casino's performance space was improved with a rear addition in 1918-19, including a partial basement, which provided enhanced stage facilities and dressing rooms for live performances.
In the Gunnison Valley News of July 23, 1936, C. E. Huish, who managed the theatre from 1936-40, announced a number of physical changes to the building, including the addition of restrooms and a triangular marquee. Huish also gave it the name it carried for seventy-five years: the "Star Theater."
Except for a short period in the early 1970's, the Star operated continuously as a movie theatre with occasional live performances. Still, over the years, with paint peeling and stucco crumbling, the building's original charm had declined.
With the goal of restoring the building to its former beauty and reintroducing it as a cultural center, the Casino Star Theatre Foundation acquired the building on November 1, 2004. The new name, Casino Star, recognizes the theater's entire history as an entertainment center for Gunnison Valley.

Combatant Commands in an era of multi-domain battle
By Lauren Fish
The U.S. military is currently adapting to a new era of conflict. Senior military leaders, including Army Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Milley, have focused heavily on improving readiness, and Deputy Secretary of Defense Bob Work has led the charge in developing the capabilities and recruiting the personnel necessary to maintain an advantage during rapid change. The multi-domain battle concept articulates future combined arms operations. In doing so, it prepares forces for the increased jointness required to achieve effects across multiple domains, including new ones such as cyber. Doctrinal innovation also often galvanizes organizational innovation. The philosophical underpinnings of multi-domain battle should be used to design a new combatant command structure.
Advanced technology is rapidly changing the operating environment. Technology breaks down traditional barriers and extends range: cyberattacks and electronic warfare have physical impact. Previously unchallenged domains, such as air, are now vulnerable to short-range threats from the ground, as well as advanced anti-access/area denial equipment. Multi-domain battle creates opportunity in one domain using the capabilities of others, including nontraditional domains such as cyber and space. The vision has been embraced by Pacific Command Commander Adm. Harry Harris, who has sought to operationalize its interdisciplinary and creative thinking.
By coordinating cross-domain capabilities against a clearly defined problem set, Pacific Command demonstrates how the U.S. military should fight in the future. Through a mission-oriented combatant command structure, the U.S. military can apply this thinking more broadly.

Arabic Translation and Translators in Early Modern Spain
by Claire M. Gilbert
The century that followed the fall of Granada at the end of 1491 and the subsequent consolidation of Christian power over the Iberian Peninsula was marked by the introduction of anti-Arabic legislation and the development of hostile cultural norms affecting Arabic speakers. Yet as Spanish institutions of power first restricted and then eliminated Arabic language use, marginalizing Arabic-speaking communities, officially sanctioned translation to and from Arabic played an increasingly crucial role in brokering the administration of the growing Spanish empire and its overseas territories. The move on the peninsula from a regime of legal pluralism to one of religious and legal orthodoxy created new needs and institutions for Arabic translation, which simultaneously reflected, subverted, and ultimately reaffirmed the normative anti-Arabic language politics.
In Good Faith examines the administrative functions and practices of the individual translators who walked the knife's edge, as the task of the Arabic-Spanish translator became both more perilous and more coveted during a volatile historical period. Despite the myriad personal and political risks run by Arabic speakers, Claire M. Gilbert argues that Arabic translation was at the core of early modern Spanish culture and society and that translators played pivotal roles in the administrative, institutional, and ideological development of Spain and its relationships, both domestic and international. Using materials from state, local, and religious archives, Gilbert develops the notion of "fiduciary translation" and uses it to paint a vivid picture of the techniques by which translators attempted to demonstrate their expertise and trustworthiness—thereby to help protect themselves, their families, and even their communities from the Inquisition and other authorities. By emphasizing the practices and networks of the individual translators themselves, Gilbert's social history of Arabic translation deepens our understanding of religious minorities, international relations, and statecraft in early modern Spain.
Introduction. The Arabic Voices of Imperial Spain
Chapter 1. The Foundations of Fiduciary Translation in Morisco Spain
Chapter 2. Families in Translation: Spanish Presidios and Mediterranean Information Networks
Chapter 3. Translating Empires: Spain, Morocco, and the Atlantic Mediterranean
Chapter 4. Faiths in Translation: Mission and Inquisition
Chapter 5. The Legacies of Fiduciary Translation: Arabic Legal
and Historical Sources in Golden Age Spain
Epilogue. Imagining Fiduciary Translation at the End of Imperial Spain
""[A]s Claire Gilbert shows in this rich book, both Arabic and its translators were foundational for the Spanish State, with a continuing—although evolving—role in the development of legal, political, diplomatic and historical thought…Gilbert comprehensively argues that, although its meanings shifted significantly between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries, Arabic never lost its vital role in the political, cultural, and legal construction of early modern Spain and its position within the world." —Bulletin of Spanish Studies
"In Good Faith makes important arguments regarding the role of Arabic to Spanish and Spanish to Arabic translation in early modern Iberian governance. Claire M. Gilbert's accounts of translators and their networks, dynasties, and struggles to create and preserve authority are fascinating; the exploration, throughout, of the paradoxes of translation is excellent; and the archival research is impressive." —Thomas Burman, University of Notre Dame

Canadiens' Max Domi admits: "It doesn't look good in slow motion"
"But hockey is not played in slow motion," he adds about sucker-punching Panthers' Aaron Ekblad. "It's something that happened very quickly."

The Canadiens' Max Domi spoke with the media for the first time Friday since being suspended for five preseason games for a sucker-punch on Florida defenceman Aaron Ekblad during Wednesday night's 5-2 loss to the Panthers at the Bell Centre.
"It doesn't look good in slow motion, obviously," Domi said after practising with his teammates in Brossard. "But hockey is not played in slow motion. It's something that happened very quickly. Obviously, I'm an emotional player. I definitely play hard and try and play with as much respect out there as possible. I respect Aaron as a player and as a person, too. I didn't want to react that way, but sometimes you jump the gun a little bit. It doesn't really matter, but I thought we were going to fight and I reacted that way. It's too bad. Like I said, I hope he's OK. You don't want to see that stuff happen, but that is what it is."
On Friday, Ekblad told reporters in Florida he suffered a broken nose from the punch and added the five-game suspension from the NHL was "kind of a gift" to Domi.
"It's not good, it's not fun," Domi, who was acquired from the Arizona Coyotes this summer in exchange for Alex Galchenyuk, said about being suspended. "It's not the first impression you want to give, but it's part of the game. You make mistakes and you got to learn from it.
"Of course, I'm sorry," Domi added. "I didn't want to hurt the guy. But sometimes your emotions get the best of you and that was a mistake. I probably shouldn't have done it. There's better ways of handling a situation like that. Like I said, I got to live with the consequences right now and I'm fully prepared to do that. It's behind us now and after today I think it's time to move on and not let this be a distraction to anyone else."
Domi and Ekblad have been playing against each other since their minor-hockey days growing up in the Toronto area. Domi's London Knights beat Ekblad's Barrie Colts in seven games to win the 2013 Robertson Cup OHL championship. Domi was selected in the first round (13th overall) by the Arizona Coyotes at the 2013 NHL Draft, while Ekblad was the No. 1 overall pick the the Panthers the following year.
"I'm not best friends by any means, but he's a friend of mine," Domi said about Ekblad. "I've spent lots of time with him away from the rink and, obviously, played against him. We've had some real tough battles in the OHL, we went to the OHL final against each other. He was a big part of that Barrie Colts team. Obviously, in the NHL when you're playing against him he's on their top D pairing so you're seeing that guy a lot and he plays hard. He's a good hockey player."
When asked if Ekblad had done something specific to upset him during Wednesday's game, Domi said: "I got a lot of respect for Aaron as a player. That's a great hockey team over there and he's a big, big part of that. I respect that and, obviously, I was not trying to hurt him and wasn't trying to cheap shot him by any means. But emotions got the best of me and kind of jumped the gun on it. We were just playing hard, battling down low and, obviously, the rest sort of happened."
.@FlaPanthers Aaron Ekblad broke nose off Max Domi suckerpunch...calls Domi's preseason suspension 'a gift. It's wrong and that's life' ... 'I think he's stupid for doing it. Scores will be settled at a later date' pic.twitter.com/dMqHzOJxCC
— George Richards (@GeorgeRichards) September 21, 2018
Ekblad suggested Friday that there could be retaliation from the Panthers the next time they meet the Canadiens, which will be Dec. 28 in Florida.
"It's dumb," Ekblad said on the Panthers' website about Domi's sucker-punch. "I think he's stupid for doing it. In the end it's hockey. That's the way it goes. Scores will get settled at a later date."
When Domi was asked about possible retribution from the Panthers, he said: "It's part of the game. It is what it is. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, so that's hockey and we'll cross that bridge when we get there."
Domi's father, Tie, was in the stands at the Bell Centre for Wednesday's game. Tie Domi accumulated 3,515 penalty minutes in 1,020 NHL regular-season games — mostly with the Toronto Maple Leafs — to rank third on the all-time list behind Tiger Williams (3,971) and Dale Hunter (3,565).
When asked if he spoke with his father after Wednesday's game, Domi said: "I can't really comment on that."

André de Resende (1498, Évora - 1573) fou dominic historiador, teòleg i arqueòleg portuguès.

Biografia
Passà molts anys viatjant per Espanya, França i els Països Baixos, on es cartejà amb Erasme de Rotterdam i altres homes intel·lectuals. També fou amic proper del rei Joan III de Portugal i dels seus fills, i feu de tutor de l'infant D. Duarte. Està enterrat a la capella del creuer dret de la catedral d'Évora, a Portugal.

Resende gaudí d'una fama considerable al llarg de la seva vida, però la historiografia moderna ha assenyalat que no era gaire escrupolós ni precís en les seves obres.

Oslo's Royal Palace. A large amount of the buildings in this city seemed to painted in various shades of yellow. Almost neutral, but bright enough to give the city such life.
The Palace leads directly into Karl Johans Gate, as seen in part one, if you can be bothered making that rather long walk. Most of it was closed due to the marathon, although we planned to head up to Vigeland Park anyway.
It appears many can be!
The grounds are covered in beautiful greenery, and a few small features along the way.
Many messages were left hanging from this tree, in languages that trace back to all the corners of Earth.
Not too shabby for the royal family to have in their garden. At home we have a small patch of grass and in my new house we have a roof to sit on, but not garden. So obviously the royal's are jealous of me and my roof when all they have is this.
Espresso House is a Scandinavian coffee chain that I never ended up trying in Norway, however I did get a Christmas filter coffee in Stockholm Arlanda airport, Espresso House earns it's name. It was a cup of damn good coffee.
Almost everything in Oslo is walkable. These are a few shots taken during our walk from the Royal Palace to Vigeland Sculpture Park, one of Oslo's main attractions.
Vigeland Park is located in Frogner, it's a bit of a walk from the Palace, and there isn't a whole lot of other attractions in the area, however we stopped at a good few shops on our way up to the park, so you can grab yourself some clothes from great Scandinavian stores like Moods of Norway, or bits of quirky homeware from Tiger.
The main monolith in the distance. We'll come to it in due time.
The park can get pretty crowded, and it is, or was, a hotspot for Pokemon Go. I had a great time hauling in Squirtles, however a stampede of children nearly killed us. And all it was for was a Squirtle! I thought it was going to be a Dragonite!
Vigeland park houses the many, many sculptures of Gustav Vigeland.
All of humans, often in interesting and compromising situations- take the above for example. The wheel of life (Livshjulet).
This one is the Babykicker.
I think that title explains enough.
It was a Saturday afternoon during an unusually warm September, meaning the park was completely packed.
It was absolutely boiling this day, I expected mild weather, but it was scorching. Lots of suncream required for the gingers on tour.
There it is, the monolith itself.
The monolith is on it's own plateau, on which 36 other statues lie. There are 8 separate entry gates around the monolith, it's the true centre of the park!
Ok some are a little creepy.
Countless 'us in the club' jokes were made with reference to certain statues.
Now prepare yourself for another spam of beautiful Scandinavian buildings.
To finish the day, we stopped for a pretty lush burger and chips.
This restaurant was called Grill's Ville, in terms of how nice it was, it felt comparable to Nandos here in the U.K. You ordered at the desk, it has a classic chain restaurant feel, and whilst pleasant, doesn't have the personality an independent restaurant does.
Just to give an examples of the prices you will pay in Norway, this meal including drink was about £18. This is a lot higher than you'd pay in the UK, so be prepared for prices like this. Especially as this was considerably cheaper than other restaurants.
We walked back via Karl Johans Gate and found a little Alfred Nobel, and there I leave you.
For we resume on part 3!

PATRICK KLUIVERT believes Louis van Gaal deserves more respect than Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola.
Van Gaal has been under pressure at Manchester United this year and latest reports indicate Mourinho is on his way to take over next season.
Guardiola will succeed Manuel Pellegrini at Manchester City at the end of the season as the Premier League continues to attract the world's best managers.
Kluivert worked with Van Gaal at Ajax before reuniting at Barcelona, that saw the striker also playing in the presence of Mourinho and Guardiola, with the latter his captain.
And Kluivert believes the Dutch boss deserves more respect than his two counterparts.
"Van Gaal deserves to be respected the same as Jose and Pep, maybe even more," he told the Daily Mail.
"He started in the game before them and he has helped make them big, as players and coaches. They both owe Van Gaal their thanks. He was there for them at the start.
The former Barcelona forward made his Eredivisie debut at the age of 17 for Ajax under Van Gaal, and later went on to score the winner in the Champions League final against AC Milan that season.
"He [Van Gaal] took me from the youth team and gave me a chance to express myself in the highest competition," Kluivert recalled.
"He gave me confidence, self-belief. He taught me tactically.
"I remember him telling me that a striker needed to go to the near post eight times out of 10, not only to get the ball but also to make space for the second striker.

Lancashire APA Laboratory involved in successful prosecution of Carnforth takeaway
Lancashire APA Laboratory involved in successful prosecution of Carnforth takeaway ordered to pay £6,370 in a fine and costs after being found guilty of breaching food hygiene regulations, having serving a naan bread contaminated with a cigarette filter tip wrapper.
Lancashire APA laboratory plays it's part in securing a successful prosecution of takeway owner.
A Lancaster takeaway has been fined £15,000 for breaching food hygiene regulations after a customer found a 3cm long screw inside an onion bhaji. By examination of the bhaji using low power microscopy, Bharatha Reddy, Public Analyst for Lancashire County Scientific Services, was able to observe a tapered screw which was clearly visible and presented securely lodged into the side of the bhaji. Further microscopical examination identified slithers of cooked onion epithelium tightly twisted around the thread of the screw and that the contents of the cross head consisted mostly of partially cooked gram flour batter. The imprint left in the bhaji perfectly matched the size and dimensions of the screw. From this, Bharathi was able to conclude that the screw became associated with the bhaji during the production process and more specifically at the mixing bowl stage.
Food Standards Scotland looks at Laboratories
At its Board meeting on the 20th November, the Board of Food Standards Scotland (FSS) received an information and discussion paper on the future capacity and capability of official food and feed control laboratories. This follows the publication of summaries of a review and paper that was considered by the Food Standards Agency Board in September.
If you have been listening to the radio in Aberdeen in 1924 you might have tuned into the 2BD Aberdeen Station. On the afternoon of 10th October you would have heard Aberdeen's Public Analyst and Agricultural Analyst Dr J F Tocher speaking on a fairly dry subject, that of the law relating to the sale of fertilizers and feeding stuffs.
FSA Board to consider a Vision for Food and Feed Laboratories
The Food Standards Agency Board is to consider a report on a recent review at its meeting in Belfast on Wednesday. The Paper acknowledges that the Agency "is responsible for ensuring the UK has sufficient laboratory capacity and capability to deliver official controls on feed and food safety and standards". The Board is asked to endorse the evidence-based vision for a future, more integrated and sustainable UK official food and feed laboratory system and provide strategic direction on the proposed approach to address the key issues identified and move towards implementation of a new UK official food and feed laboratory system.

ARCA rookie Justin Fontaine set to take on Lucas Oil Raceway
CLERMONT, Ind. – For the seventh time this season, ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards newcomer Justin Fontaine (@driverFontaine) is set to tackle a new track as the series makes it annual stop at Lucas Oil Raceway Park (LORP), site of Friday night's Sioux Chief PowerPEX 200.
For Fontaine with the support of AM Racing and their development team Win-Tron Racing, they head to Lucas Oil Raceway looking to bounce back from a disappointing finish at Iowa Speedway where a mechanical failure robbed them of a top-10 finish.
At Iowa, Fontaine showed that he had a car capable of earning him his career-best finish in his sixth race, but 65 laps into the Fans with Benefits 150, a gear failure sent him to the garage and out of the race.
Still, Fontaine and crew chief Bill Henderson were encouraged by their performance.
"We're going in the right direction," said Fontaine. "I can't thank the AM Racing, Win-Tron Racing and ProMATIC team enough for giving me good race cars. It's unfortunate that we had a mechanical failure, but we've put that behind us and we're focused on Lucas Oil Friday night and Pocono next weekend."
Despite the Iowa finish, comfortable seems to be the norm for Fontaine, a native of Asheville, N.C.
In the past three races, the driver of the No. 33 ProMATIC Toyota has improved his qualifying game earning his best career-start of eighth two weeks ago at Iowa Speedway. Previously, it was a 10th at Madison International Speedway. Before then, it was a 12th at Michigan International Speedway.
"Our qualifying efforts have been solid," added Fontaine. "I think we still have some work to do to get better – but we're making progress every week and we're able to find more speed from practice. Now, we just need to complete the circle."
Even though Fontaine has never been to Lucas Oil Raceway, the 19-year-old is relying on his prior short track experience to play dividends.
"Yeah, I've never been to Lucas Oil, but I've been studying the track by watching old races and looking at photos and film" Fontaine added. "Gus (Dean), my teammate has been to Lucas Oil before so I'm hoping if I have any questions – I can pick his brain and see if there's something he can help me with."
No matter what Friday night brings, Fontaine hopes the outcome brings him momentum he can carry in the second half of the ARCA season
"You know after the Daytona crash that kept me out for a couple months, I'm just blessed to be able to go to the track and race every weekend," he said. "I go to the race track every weekend thinking we have a chance to have a good finish. Under the right circumstances and a good handling No. 33 ProMATIC Toyota, I think we can win. We just have to keep digging."
Currently 14th in the series standings (+2 positions from Iowa), Fontaine has a career best finish of 11th twice at Elko (Minn.) Speedway and Madison (Wisc.) international Speedway respectively.
While sticking with a heavy ARCA schedule for now, Fontaine's focus is expected to turn towards the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series where he'll compete in a limited schedule this summer in an AM Racing entry.
The Sioux Chief PowerPEX 200 (200 laps / 137 miles) is the 11th of 20 races on the 2017 ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards schedule. Practice begins Fri., July 21 with an hour and forty-five-minute practice session planned from 12:15 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. General Tire pole qualifying is set for later in the day at 5:00 p.m. The race is set to take the green flag later shortly after 9:00 p.m. The event will be broadcasted live on FOX Sports 1 (FS1), while ARCARacing.com will stream live timing and scoring throughout the week's activities.

Iowa Speedway Post-Race Recap
Justin Fontaine to pull double duty at Pocono Raceway


My step-mother Lyllis was a caterer in New York. I have used a lot of her recipes over the years. This easy to make salad was always a hit when she catered. I now use it when we have cookouts and have friends who ask me to make sure its on my menu.
I buy baby organic spinach leaves which makes this salad even easier to prepare.
Combine the above ingredients and shake well. (I use a small jar). Pour 1/4 of the dressing over the spinach and strawberries just before serving. Dressing keeps 2-3 days in fridge.
*Some people like to add thinly sliced red onions or/and English cucumbers to this salad.


I'm visiting your great NW from Boston, looking for partners for the entire period of April 29th to May 3 or selected days within this period depending on people's schedules. I fly to Portland and will try St Helens and maybe something else with my son and daughter-in-law but then they had to leave and I'm left with the rest of the week to myself. My greatest desire is to spend several days on Shasta but I'm open to other objectives as well depending on the weather and partners schedules and preferences.
Some info on me: I'm not young but somehow not slow yet (2K gain/hour skinning in a resort) and can go fairly long distances. Not a super skilled skier, prefer moderate lines. Done a number of easier 14ers and 13ers in CO, Baker, Adams, Muir, Shasta... Routes similar to Adams SW chutes (did that last year) are close to the top of my skiing abilities. I'm a fairly experienced mountaineer with a few big mountains under my belt.


You've been diagnosed with mesothelioma. Now what do you do? Although most people will recommend that you hire a lawyer to represent your best interests many people do not do so, often because of shame and embarrassment. Whether or not you hire a lawyer can have a big impact on your case so you may want to think carefully before making a decision. If you do decide to hire a MESOTHELIOMA lawyer there are several things to consider so that you find the best lawyer possible to represent you.
Because MESOTHELIOMA laws vary among each state (www.mesotheliomaslawyer.com/statemesotheliomalaws), hire a lawyer that has expertise with the laws in the state where you were arrested. Also, hire a lawyer that specializes in MESOTHELIOMA cases. Depending on where you live you may not be able to find a good lawyer that practices MESOTHELIOMA law exclusively, but look for a lawyer who spends at least half of his or her time handling MESOTHELIOMA cases. It may be tempting to hire your local lawyer who deals with a veritable buffet of issues such as MESOTHELIOMA's, divorce, wills, and bankruptcy, etc. but MESOTHELIOMA law is extensive and continually changing so you will likely be much better hiring a specialist in mesothelioma lawyer.
Before you hire a mesothelioma lawyer, or any other type of lawyer, meet with him or her first. Most lawyers will not charge you to meet with them while you're looking for someone to handle your case. Having a face to face meeting with your lawyer before hiring him or her is good for both the client and the attorney. You'll want to hire someone you feel comfortable working with. A face to face meeting helps you determine whether or not you feel comfortable. It also helps the lawyer decide if he or she feels comfortable working with you and wants to take on your case.
Before going to any consultations with lawyers (and you should consult with at least two lawyers before making a decision) do some research. The yellow pages is a good place to look for a lawyer but remember that the mesothelioma lawyer with the biggest ad is not necessarily the best lawyer for you to hire. He or she is just the person with the biggest ad. You want a lawyer with MESOTHELIOMA expertise and experience.The library is another good place to do research. Your local library should have a copy of the Martindale Hubbell law directory. The directory does its best to list every lawyer in the United States along with his or her area(s) of speciality. You can search the directory by either location or area of law each lawyer deals with. The directory is also available online. People you know can also be a good source of information regarding a good lawyer.Create a list of questions you want to ask each lawyer during the consultation so you can compare each lawyer equally before deciding who you would like to hire to represent you.
3) What costs besides attorney fees will I be responsible for? (In addition to lawyer fees you may be responsible for things like court costs and filing fees).
These are just a few of the questions you'll likely want to ask before deciding which mesothelioma lawyer you want to hire.


This morning we had our first breakfast from the Kitchen Crew. They made us scrambled eggs, bacon, and fruit. It was a great way to start off what was going to be a long day. After breakfast we had our quiet time. I wanted to do my bible study because I was almost done Exodus, but I really did not want to fall behind on my journaling. Towards the end of quiet time I loaded my backpack with mine and Alex's work gear and then we were in the vans and on our way to the site.
When we arrived it was a very humbling sight to see. It was literally a dump. There was trash all around us and other than a small concrete patio (hence us being the "patio site") there were piles of broken wood, plastic, and concrete. Despite not really knowing what to do, we got right in there breaking things apart and clearing them. Our goal for the day was to clear and level the site as well as lay wooden 2x4s to create a frame for concrete day tomorrow. The beginning of the day was a lot of pulling, breaking, and sorting through materials we could and could not use.
While clearing we found a toilet broken down, but still full of poop. Drew picked up the toilet without hesitation and threw it to where the other trash was laying. It was impressive that he just went and did something no one else wanted to do without a second thought.
As we got closer and closer to lunch time, some of the leaders on our team began laying the wooden frame and tying rope between stakes to figure how much fill we would need to get our site level. Right around 11:30 we encountered a problem (our first of many on the trip). With where our strings currently were we would need a bunch of fill that we did not have. In order to fix the problem we would need to go deeper and break through a decent amount of concrete. Lucky for us, the other team was ahead of schedule so they sent some guys over to help us tear up our concrete.
My highlight of the work day was when everyone was gone filling up wheelbarrows and there was a random sledge-hammer lying around. I had been eying it and I guess Chris and Dave noticed because they looked at me and said, "See that concrete slab over there… go for it." There's about a thirty-second video of me just taking out any frustration I could have had on the slab. It was probably one of the most satisfying things I have ever done.
I had been walking around with socks on and I was going to run up the five flights of stairs to grab shoes before we started playing, but I was told that I'd probably be fine, so I decided to conserve energy for the game. It was working pretty well until I jumped up to grab a rebound and came down fully on the right side of my right foot. My first instinct was to say that I was fine (clearly my pride coming out), but when I went to walk off the court I realized I was in more pain than expected. Dylan carried me upstairs and we quickly had my foot iced and propped up.
Dinner was beans, chicken tenders, fruit, and salad– a hit with the entire team. Katie grabbed me food and Drew got me a drink, but the whole not being able to do things for myself thing was very frustrating. In between dinner and chapel Nikki looked at my foot and gave me her opinion that it was just badly bruised. This helped because it is a lot easier to power through a bruise than a sprain or a break.
During chapel the groups had a chance to share parts of their day, with the focus being on where we could see God. When it god to the word of the day, I chose "humbling" as mine. Obviously the site was humbling, this family is literally living directly next to a dump and get they are so excited to just have a nice place to call their own. Even beyond that, my injured foot was humbling. When Katie offered to get me food, or Rachel offered to carry me, my initial reaction was to say no, but I had to push my pride aside and accept help.
The end of the day once again consisted of first playing cards, tonight Exploding Kittens, and then talking to the girls downstairs until we finally went to sleep.

Google Pixel 6 officially only supports 21W fast charging — not the 30W we were promised
By Tom Pritchard published 18 November 21
Google admits the Pixel 6 series doesn't charge as fast as we were led to believe
Update: It's since been revealed that the Pixel 6 may not work with generic chargers, particularly slow-charging USB-A cables and bricks. So if you're having trouble recharging, this might be the case
The launch of the Google Pixel 6 series also came with the news that both phones would support 30W fast charging. Unfortunately testing showed that didn't seem to be the case, with speeds clocking in around the 22W range. Now Google has admitted it.
In a community blog post, Google has revealed that the Pixel 6 can only draw 21W of power from a wired charger. Meanwhile, the Pixel 6 Pro can pull in 23W speeds, which is a little better but still a far cry from the 30W speeds we were promised.
We originally heard this news after Android Authority did a deep dive into the Pixel 6 and discovered it maxed out at 22W speeds. Meanwhile, the Pixel 5 supported up to 18W speeds, which isn't that much lower; it's just 3 watts less than the Pixel 6's maximum power draw.
Google still maintains that the Pixel 6 will regain 50% of its charge in 30 minutes, and 80% after a full hour. Unfortunately, our own Pixel 6 charging tests also found that the phone was recharging slower than the competition — going from zero to 29% in 30 minutes.
The Pixel 6 Pro fared a little better, hitting 40% after half an hour, but that's still a distance from the promised 50%.
Meanwhile the Samsung Galaxy S21 hit 55% in the same testing conditions, while the OnePlus 9's 65W charger meant it was almost fully charged in the same amount of time. Now we know why this was the case.
So why invest in a 30W charger when the old 18W charger isn't much worse off? According to Google this new brick supports the new USB PD 3.0 PPS standard, which offers more efficient charging. But whether that's worth the cost of a new brick is your decision to make.
Google also notes that The Pixel 6 can optimize charging speeds, meaning it will charge faster at low battery levels and slows down when you get closer to full. It should be pointed out that this is not unique to Google Pixels.
All lithium ion batteries charge faster initially and slow down when they get closer to a full charge. It doesn't matter whether it's a smartphone battery measured in milliamp hours (mAh) or an electric car that's measured in kilowatt hours.
What's interesting about this is that the new $79 Pixel Stand also offers a 23W maximum charging speed. Not only is that the same as the Pixel 6 Pro's maximum power draw, Google makes a point of advertising that fact.
The Pixel Stand's pre-order page promises that it lets you "wirelessly charge your device with the same power you'd expect from a wireless charger." While that originally could have been construed as a slight against slower wireless chargers (and there are a lot of them), it seems that the statement is completely literal.
The Pixel Stand costs $79, and is available to pre-order now ahead of a mid-December delivery. It also comes with the $25 30W USB charging brick, should any Pixel 6 owners not already have one.
In any case this is worth thinking about before you go out and buy a Pixel 6. It's definitely worth remembering before adding the 30W charger to your purchase. As someone who paid extra for the faster charging speeds, despite having an 18W Pixel charger lying around, I can tell you that I am pretty ticked off.

Diversity & Inclusion (D&I)
Indigenous Canadian renewable energy projects

Sometimes the unsung heroes of the Canadian renewable energy sector, the nation's indigenous peoples have been actively making major contributions.
Corporate Knights recently reported that the Tahltan Nation in British Columbia had purchased 5% of three Northwest British Columbia Hydro Electric Facilities. Although a significant investment, it is by no means the only example.
Part of a global shift that recognises the value in renewable energy projects, Canadian Aboriginals are proving integral to the development of the industry's infrastructure and have been engaging in several rewarding 'green energy' partnerships with energy companies.
Better days ahead
A recent venture backed by the Henvey Inlet First Nation in partnership with energy company Nigig Power Corporation resulted in a facility representing the largest of its kind in Ontario: 87 Vestas turbines generating 3.45MW each, cutting 450,000 tonnes of carbon per year.
"New infrastructure is underway in the First Nation as a result of this new facility, and we see better days ahead," said Chief Wayne McQuabbie of the Henvey Inlet First Nation in an article with T&D World.

"As Anishinabek, we are proud to contribute to a green economy and are proactively moving forward in a time of climate change."
"It's an honour to partner with Henvey Inlet First Nation on this historic project," said Greg Newton, CEO of Nigig Power Corporation.
"Renewables are helping to reduce the impact on our environment caused by climate change, and this new facility is now generating clean, homegrown energy for 100,000 homes each year without any harmful emissions."
Similarly, the T'Sou-ke First Nation from Vancouver Island collaborated with project manager Andrew Moore to deliver a 440-pannel, 75KW solar installation. Envisioned not just as an eco-friendly venture but also a step towards self-sufficiency, it has allowed the T'Sou-ke Nation to live independently and sustainably.
"It's a demonstration project. It shows these things are possible," said Chief Gordon Planes to HeroX. "You have to look at ways of being creative and educating everyone to try and fix what's wrong with Mother Earth. This project is just one piece of it."

Le Marshall JCM-800 est une série d'amplificateurs commercialisée par Marshall Amplification entre 1981 et 1989.

Histoire
Les JCM-800 ont été distribués pour la première fois en , peu après la fin de la relation entre Jim Marshall et son distributeur Rose-Morris.
Anticipant la fin du contrat avec Rose-Morris, Jim Marshall a travaillé à partir du milieu des années 1970 au développement d'une nouvelle série d'amplificateurs pour guitares électriques. Les châssis 50 et 100 Watts de la série "Master Volume amps", introduite en 1975, constituaient la base des JCM-800.

Le nom JCM-800 provient de la plaque d'immatriculation de la voiture de Jim Marshall à l'époque qui correspondait à ses initiales (James Charles Marshall) et le chiffre 800 (qui coïncidait bien avec les années 80).

La série JCM-800 a été arrêté en 1989, juste avant le début de la commercialisation des JCM-900 en 1990, puis réintroduite à partir de 2002 pour sa déclinaison tête 100w '2203'.

Déclinaisons
Sous le nom JCM-800, un numéro permet d'identifier un modèle, sauf les versions têtes qui gardèrent leurs numéros originaux. Ainsi les modèles 2000 sont les têtes tout lampe, 3000 sont les têtes hybrides ou transistors, 4000 sont les combos tout lampe ou hybrides, et les 5000 sont 100 % transistors.
À noter que les deux versions hybrides (4203 pour le combo et 3203 pour la tête) ont la particularité, à l'inverse de ce que l'on constate souvent, d'avoir le préampli transistor (avec quand même une lampe 12ax7) et la section puissance tout lampe.

Amplis pour guitare
La série JCM-800 a connu plusieurs déclinaisons pour guitare électrique : 50 ou 100 watts, version tête ou combo, 1 ou 2 canaux de préamplification (à partir de 1982) :

TOUT LAMPE :
 1959 JCM800 Super Lead, 100W tête
 1987 JCM800 Lead, 50W tête
 2203 JCM800 Master Volume Lead, 100W tête
 2204 JCM800 Master Volume Lead, 50W tête
 2205 JCM800 Split Channel Reverb, 50W tête
 2210 JCM800 Split Channel Reverb, 100W tête
 4001 Studio 15, 15W 1x12" combo
 4010 JCM800, 50W 1x12" combo

HYBRIDE :
 3203 JCM800 Artist 30W tête
 4203 JCM800 Artist 30W combo

Amplis pour basse
Les modèles pour basses ont été les amplis les plus puissants construits par Marshall Amplification. Ces amplis ont été commercialisés à partir d'. L'appartenance à la série JCM-800 n'est par clairement établie, leur conception est proche des JCM-800 et suggère cette appartenance mais ils n'ont jamais été estampillés JCM-800.
Ils sont :
 2000 Lead, 250W head
 2001 Bass, 375W head

Amplis hybrides et transistor
La réputation des JCM-800 provient des modèles ci-dessus, mais des déclinaisons à base de transistor ont été produites à cette période et faisaient partie du catalogue JCM-800 :
 3005 Lead 12 Micro Stack, 12W tête
 3210 Lead 100 MOSFET, 100W tête
 3310 MOSFET, 100W tête
 3315, 150W tête
