Spurenelement (auch Mikroelement) wird allgemein ein chemisches Element genannt, das nur in geringer Konzentration oder Spuren vorkommt; bei äußerst geringer Konzentration wird auch von Ultra-Spurenelement gesprochen.

Die Häufigkeiten chemischer Elemente unterscheiden sich erheblich, betrachtet man ihr Vorkommen im Sonnensystem, im Planeten Erde, in Gesteinen der Erdkruste, im Wasser von Ozeanen oder beispielsweise im menschlichen Körper. Innerhalb der jeweiligen Häufigkeitsverteilung werden die häufigen Elemente als Mengenelemente von den seltenen Spurenelementen geschieden.

Während in der Geochemie Stoffanteile und Begleitelemente von Gesteinen und Mineralen in Konzentrationen unter 0,1 % bzw. 1000 ppm als Spurenelemente bezeichnet werden, bevorzugt die analytische Chemie meist einen Schwellenwert von 100 ppm bzw. 100 µg/g (= 100 mg/kg) oder 0,01 %. Davon zu unterscheiden ist der enger gefasste biologische Begriff:

Als essentielle Spurenelemente werden in der Biologie chemische Elemente bezeichnet, die für ein Lebewesen – umgangssprachlich meist auf den Menschen bezogen – (essentiell) nötig sind und in Massenanteilen von weniger als 50 mg/kg im Organismus vorkommen. Bei Konzentrationen von weniger als 1 µg/kg wird gelegentlich auch von Ultraspurenelementen gesprochen. Mikroelemente gehören zu den Mikronährstoffen.

Für den Menschen essentielle Spurenelemente

Eine zu geringe Menge oder gar das Fehlen essentieller Spurenelemente ruft in Lebewesen Mangelerkrankungen hervor. Durch solche Mangelerscheinungen – etwa einer Anämie bei Eisenmangel oder einer Schilddrüsenvergrößerung bzw. -unterfunktion bei Iodmangel – wird die Unentbehrlichkeit (Essentialität) eines Elementes offensichtlich. Andererseits können auch Spurenelemente – wie jeder Stoff ab einer gewissen Dosis – in zu hohen Mengen nachteilige Folgen haben.

Spurenelemente werden üblicherweise beim Essen und Trinken mit der Nahrung aufgenommen, die sie in Spuren enthält. Bei verminderter Aufnahme, vermehrter Ausscheidung oder erhöhtem Bedarf kann es zu einer Unterversorgung des Körpers mit Spurenelementen kommen. Mögliche Gründe dafür sind
 Ernährungsgewohnheiten – z. B. geringe Auswahl, einseitige Bevorzugung, besondere Zubereitungsformen bzw. abtrennende Aufbereitungsprozesse von Lebensmitteln
 Regionale Gegebenheiten – beispielsweise sehr geringes Vorkommen in Ackerboden oder Trinkwasser
 erhöhter Verlust, etwa durch Durchfallerkrankungen oder starkes Schwitzen
 veränderte Bedingungen für Aufnahme, Ausscheidung und Bedarf bei unterschiedlichen Stoffwechselerkrankungen

Medizinisch wird Eisen (Fe) wegen seiner Wirkungsweise den Spurenelementen zugeordnet, im Menschen ist es durchschnittlich mit etwa 60 mg/kg enthalten.

Fluor (F) zählt dagegen nicht zu den essentiellen Spurenelementen, allerdings hat Fluorid (F−) einen Karies vorbeugenden Effekt. Als angemessene Fluoridzufuhr für Erwachsene empfiehlt das Bundesinstitut für Risikobewertung (Jahr 2006) auch bei schwangeren und stillenden Müttern eine durchschnittliche Gesamtmenge von 3,1 mg pro Tag. Ein ähnlicher Wert von 0,05 mg/kg Körpergewicht für die tägliche Zufuhr wird von dem die EU-Kommission wissenschaftlich beratenden Ausschuss für Nahrungsmittelsicherheit empfohlen (Jahr 2013). Die tägliche Höchstmengenempfehlung (Tolerable Upper Intake Level, UL) beträgt 7 mg für Erwachsene bzw. 0,1 mg/kg Körpergewicht. Eine zu hohe Fluoridzufuhr kann zu einer Fluorose der Zähne (dentale Fluorose) und des Skeletts (ossäre Fluorose) führen.

Für eine Reihe von Spurenelementen sehr geringer Konzentration ist bis heute ungeklärt, ob sie nur als akzidenteller ("zufälliger") Bestandteil im Menschen vorkommen oder ob ihnen irgendeine physiologische Funktion zukommt. Diese werden als Ultra-Spurenelemente bezeichnet.

Auflistung von Spurenelementen

Für den Menschen essentielle Spurenelemente sind:

 Cobalt (Co), als Komponente von Vitamin B12
 Eisen (Fe)
 Iod (I), Aufnahme als Iodid (I−)
 Kupfer (Cu)
 Mangan (Mn)
 Molybdän (Mo)
 Selen (Se)
 Zink (Zn)

Für den Menschen möglicherweise essentielle Spurenelemente sind:

 Arsen (As)
 Bor (B)
 Chrom (Cr)
 Nickel (Ni)
 Rubidium (Rb)
 Silicium (Si)
 Vanadium (V)
 Zinn (Sn)

Position im Periodensystem der chemischen Elemente:

Ultra-Spurenelemente

In der Biochemie ist ein Ultra-Spurenelement definiert als ein chemisches Element, das normalerweise weniger als ein Mikrogramm pro Gramm (< 1 µg/g; unter 1 ppm bzw. 0,0001 Gewichtsprozent) eines bestimmten Organismus ausmacht und dennoch eine bedeutende Rolle in dessen Stoffwechsel spielt. Ultra-Spurenelemente beim Menschen sind neben Cobalt auch Nickel und Silicium sowie möglicherweise Vanadium, Chrom, Bor, Brom, Lithium, Arsen und Zinn.

Womöglich sind einige Ultra-Spurenelemente in der Ernährung wichtiger als derzeit anerkannt. Zum Beispiel gibt es Hinweise aus Studien am Menschen, dass Bor eine vorteilhafte Wirkung auf den Kalziumstoffwechsel, die Gehirnfunktion, den Energiestoffwechsel und möglicherweise auf Immunprozesse hat. Für Chrom wird eine bedeutsame Funktion bei der Potenzierung der Insulinwirkung im Metabolismus von Glucose und Lipiden bzw. eine vorteilhafte Wirkung bei Diabetes mellitus diskutiert.

Da bisher für keines dieser Elemente eine spezifische biochemische Funktion identifiziert wurde, ist ihre ernährungsphysiologischen Bedeutung noch nicht geklärt. Der vermutete Bedarf an Ultra-Spurenelementen hat jedoch das Interesse der Nahrungsergänzungsmittelindustrie geweckt.

Sonstige Bedeutung
Neben den oben genannten Aspekten sind Spurenelemente im Sinne von "chemischen Fingerabdrücken" u. a. auch bei archäologischen, archäometrischen, anthropologischen oder kriminaltechnischen Untersuchungen von Bedeutung. Durch deren Bestimmung können Rückschlüsse auf Herkunft, Lebensweise, Zeitraum oder Verunreinigung von Artefakten und Beweisstücken gewonnen werden.

A clinical condition resembling Asthma-like difficult breathing is commonly seen in Bronchitis. Bronchitis is an inflammation of the main air passages (bronchi) to lungs it is of 2 types acute and chronic. Both types cause a cough which can bring up yellow or green mucus, shortness of breath and chest tightness.
Asthma is defined as a common chronic disorder of the airways characterized by variable and recurring symptoms. When someone suffers from Asthma, certain triggers cause the muscle around the walls of the airways to tighten so that the airway becomes inflamed and starts to swell often with the production of sticky mucus or phlegm making breathing difficult.
Common asthma triggers include animals (pet hair or dander), dust, changes in weather (most often cold weather), chemicals in the air or in food, exercise, mold, pollen, Respiratory infections such as the common cold, strong emotions (stress), tobacco smoke.
Common symptoms of asthma in a steady-state may include any one or all of the following: Nighttime coughing, shortness of breath with exertion but no dyspnoea at rest, a chronic 'throat-clearing' a type cough and complaints of a tight feeling in the chest. A cough may sometimes produce clear sputum.
Take adequate rest. Steam inhalation helps decrease bronchial irritation.
Drink plenty of fluids to maintain proper hydration.
Fever can be lowered down by using cold sponging methods.
As a preventive measure avoid smoking and stay away from air pollutants.
Fever continuing beyond four to five days to rule out Pneumonia.
Coughing up blood, rust-colored sputum or an increased amount of green phlegm.
Incipient stages of breathlessness due to Respiratory affections can be countered by Dr. Bakshi's formulation for Asthmatic Condition. For persistence or worsening of symptoms take medical advice.
Indications: Helps relieve breathlessness and cough of Bronchitis & Asthma thus improving Airflow.
Children: 3 pills, 3 times a day.
Maintenance Dose: Once or twice daily for a minimum 16-20 weeks.

Is law on the side of schools 'that uphold biological reality'?
The attorney general for England has concluded that schools are not required to cater to the demands of gender confused students.
Suella Braverman said there are, in fact, no legal obligations to use a child's "preferred pronoun," to allow boys to wear girls' clothing or to compromise on access to single-sex toilets, according to a report from the Christian Institute.
The report said the chief legal adviser to the government also defended the policy of Girls' Day School Trust, introduced last year, to provide single-sex education for girls on the basis of biological sex only.
"Under-18s cannot get a gender recognition certificate, under-18s cannot legally change sex," Braverman reported.
So, "A male child who says in a school that they are a trans girl, that they want to be female, is legally still a boy or a male. And they can be treated as such under the law."
That means, the report explained, she said on the basis of the law schools are not required to say "OK, we're going to let you change your pronoun or let you wear a skirt or call yourself a girl's name."
"There's no duty on schools to compromise on single-sex spaces," she added.
"From a safeguarding point of view you can argue that there is a duty on schools to preserve single-sex spaces, and ensure spaces are for biological females. I would extend that to school uniforms personally, I think the law allows schools to do that."
It is the Times of London that reported Braverman told the publication in an interview that teachers need to take a "much firmer line" and no longer accept the gender dysphoria claims without question.
She endorsed the views of Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling, who has advocated for female-only spaces.
"Very brave, very courageous. I'm on her side," Braverman said.
The lawyer described a recent situation in which a female student was "bullied" out of school for questioning the transgender ideology points, a result she called "outrageous."
The report said it was just weeks ago that Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi announced parents must be informed if their child identifies as transgender at school.
Zahawi said "parents have to be front and center" when children are making drastic decisions about their futures.

How can you hide, disable or remove the Blogger Navbar, a navigation and search bar on top of all blogspot blogs on Blogger. Blogger navbar has several useful features and different colours, but sometimes it may not blend with your template, and give you an unprofessional design.
Many bloggers have asked me how to remove this Blogger navbar. Remember, Blogger Navbar can be disabled for users publishing via FTP as per Blogger Terms of service. For free Blogger users, not publishing via FTP, you cannot disable the Navbar. So it is best to confirm with Blogger support that you can indeed hide the Navbar before proceeding to do so. You do not want your blog banned by them for such a small issue. I take no responsibility for the same.
Now if you are publishing by FTP, some tips are available on other websites to which I point you.
Turn off the Blogger Navbar – the best and official way – Go to Template, and now a new option "OFF" appears in the drop down list of "Change the Blogger NavBar". Just select it and republish your blog.
For all other custom themes, the best way to hide the blogger navbar is add the following code to the HEAD section of your blog HTML.

The translation of asesoria is consultant or advisor.
The one I mentioned on the main "Law" page was the first one - fiscal. Advice on tax matters means that this particular asesor is what amounts to an accountant, or financial advisor. You can see that the third one on the list is also concerned with accounting, so you could choose either to deal with your accounts and to work out your tax.
Like everything else, you'd obviously prefer to deal with an asesor who can speak English. I've trawled the Internet and come up with the following.
Found in the Madrid Building, on Calle San Francisco de Paula in Santa Cruz. This is an asesoria fiscal y contable and languages spoken are Spanish and English.
Another asesoria fiscal y contable, based on Avenida La Salle, Santa Cruz, speaking both Spanish and English.
A German tax consultant, based in Puerto de La Cruz. Languages spoken, as well as German, are English and Spanish.
They are found in Centro Comercial La Cupula, on Calle Camelia.
An asesoria legal, fiscal, contable y laboral, this time based in the south, in Playa de Las Americas.
Found in Parque Santiago 2, this firm employs bilingual staff - Spanish and English.
This appears to be an asesoria de empresa, found on the Centro Comercial Apolo, just next to the bus station in Los Cristianos.
It has been established since 2002, is British owned and is run by bilingual management and staff.
There are probably more...leave it with me.

Anne Hathaway-backed Pact closes $36 million first tranche
A female-founded VC firm has closed the first tranche of its £30 million ($36 million) early-stage fund.
The Covenant aims to invest in startups that focus on financial access, health and improvement, and climate action.
Check out the 11-slide LP deck the London-based company used to raise the new funds.

An early-stage venture capital fund founded by three women has just closed the first tranche of its £30 million (about $36 million) fund.
Established in 2022, Pact wants to be the first institutional ticket in rounds with checks from £1m to £1.5m across 18 to 20 deals.
The London-based company is the brainchild of Monik Pham, former head and founding member of the Fuel Ventures team. investment banker and founder Tong Gu; and Reem Mobassaleh-Wyndham, former vice president of technology at sovereign wealth fund Mubadala.
Her investment thesis focuses on three themes, which the group refers to as the "ABCs": access to financial inclusion, improvement and well-being, and climate action and sustainability.
While the investments will span Europe, Pact will help its portfolio companies scale into regions underserved by traditional investors, Gu told Insider. Gu will support companies looking to enter Asia, while Pham and Mobassaleh-Wyndham will focus on EMEA, specifically Türkiye.
Britain has also piqued Gu's interest and is "specifically looking for deals that are overlooked by other investors".
There are "a lot of good talent companies in the UK's regional ecosystems" because of their proximity to good universities, Gu added. "That's where we want to spend more time, looking for interesting deals and supporting founders from those regions."
Campden Hill Capital is its flagship LP, with high-net-worth individuals and founders from past investments including Jeff Dean, head of AI at Google, Yeming Wang, former head of EMEA at Alibaba, Keith Teare, founder TechCrunch shareholder, and Academy Award-winning actress and United Nations Goodwill Ambassador Anne Hathaway, among others. It aims to secure a second fund close by early next year, Gu added.
Unlike other firms where LP relationships can be opaque, Pact plans to connect its investors in everything from due diligence to portfolio management. He sees this as a draw for potential portfolio companies that can then benefit from the network's expertise.
That's just one way Covenant hopes to set itself apart with its founder-friendly strategy. He also plans to give 1% of every ticket as a gift to the founders to spend on well-being and personal growth. To take advantage of the non-dilutive promise, founders must match it. The company also mandates an annual two-week management holiday.
"Great minds also need great rest," Gu said.
This was shaped in part by the three general partners (GPs) having and raising children for the first time during the fundraising, Gu said.
"We had to build the company to be inclusive by design, from day one, by necessity." The company also has a flexible yet high-performance work environment with a detailed childcare policy, she added.
"That's something we're really interested in, not only within the company, but it's also how we work with founders."
About 50% of the fund's current deal flow is based on women, although this came about organically rather than through a set quota, Gu added.

Q: Deploying a Magento Store from a live server to XAMPP/WAMP Hi so I need to make some drastic changes to my live site and it looks like I'll have to take it local to make these changes using XAMPP or WAMP.
So far I have taken all of the files from my server and got myself a database backup via the Magento admin.
I have now put all the files into a folder within my htdocs and i'm not sure what I do from here?
I am having trouble understanding the database, because I obviously need to add it to XAMPP to get all of my store running how it should however I have no idea how I assign the folder that contains my store the database.
Also what other steps are there?
I have taken a look around Google and I cant seem to find a way of taking a live site and making it local.
Could someone possibly describe the steps of doing this using XAMPP or WAMP?

A: This YouTube tutorial might help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOIzGpXCuT4
Once you've copied all the files to your local htdocs folder, I believe you'll need to migrate your MySQL database from your live to your local. Additionally, make sure to update the web/unsecure/base_url and 'web/secure/base_url' in the core_config_data table.

Lily Maopolski: "You Just Have to Put Yourself Out There and Good Things Come."
tags: american idol, busker, Lily Maopolski, summer 2016, taylor swift, the swiftees
Text and images by Brianna Spause.
"Student loans suck."
Written on a humble cardboard sign, the overwhelmingly relatable notion of crushing debt is her hook as Lily Maopolski, 21, performs on the corner of 13th and Walnut streets.
As herds of people pound the pavement through Center City, Maopolski greets the rush hour crowd with nothing but her warm, raspy vocals and acoustic guitar.
When Maopolski puts her talents out on display to the thousands of eyes that sweep the crowded streets, she gives a piece of herself to the city and finds a little bit of magic in human interaction in return.
Some stop and listen, others sing and dance along in stride and sometimes the stars align.
A cab driver stops in the middle of the street and leans admiringly out his window for a listen as Maopolski sings "Irreplaceable" by Beyoncé in the afternoon sun.
With a wink she sings the verse, "Baby drop them keys/ you better hurry up before your taxi leaves." Letting out a deep chuckle, the driver pulls off down 13th Street and on with his day.
Music has the ability to freeze a moment and, as her songs echo down crowded streets, Maopolski brings her constantly shifting audience into the present.
Not everyone passing the performance on the corner pays any mind. But presented with an unexpected excuse to connect with art, street performance allows people to stop and exist, even if only for a moment.
A year ago, Maopolski didn't even know what busking meant. Now, it encompasses her lifestyle.
She says busking has changed her life both personally and artistically, as she feels more confident when she connects with people through music.
"I put 100 percent of myself out there when I busk and I get that in return from the people passing me on the street, whether it be a smile, a quick compliment or a 15-minute conversation," Maopolski says. "Playing guitar and singing in the street alone in the city can be a vulnerable thing but I've received nothing but love."
It's been a whirlwind year for the young artist who plays cover songs on the streets of Philadelphia several times a week. Maopolski leaves her originals at home. She says people don't pay attention if they don't know the tune.
Maopolski started busking in earnest after quitting her job at Café Crema, a little cannoli shop next door to Geno's Steaks, where she had been reserved to busking on her lunch break.
"I was making more money in 15 minutes than in a seven-hour shift," Maopolski says.
Quickly, her passion turned into a non-traditional way to keep the lights on and those pesky student loans at bay.
"But it's not even about the money," Maopolski says as she starts packing up her guitar after about an hour playing in Center City.
She pushes aside today's haul to carefully make room – some singles, an overripe banana, two mixtapes and a business card for the Ritz Carlton Hotel with scrawled handwriting that reads, "We do live music in the lobby."
"I just want to perform, all the time," Maopolski says. "There's no rules to busking, which is the best part. Sometimes I'll get that pit in my stomach before I play. But then I'll think, why am I fucking stressed? I'm just going to have fun. Who cares?"
The freedom of the streets is appealing to Maopolski. She tried out the house show scene for a while with her indie rock band, Space Boner. But that was short-lived and more just about people coming together to jam.
When busking, Maopolski can show up where she wants, when she wants and without any expectations. She says it just jives better with her lifestyle.
Sophiya Sydoryak brought Maopolski out for her first busking experience. With Sydoryak on the hula hoop and Maopolski on the guitar, the pair made a dynamic busking duo.
Maopolski was hooked, and began going solo. Sydoryak says Maopolski's demeanor and laid-back attitude is what draws people in.
"She just busks because she wants to share art with the world," Sydoryak says. "There's something simple and untouched about that. I find that if you share your passion aimlessly, just because this is what you love to do, success finds you."
And for Maopolski, that seems to be a trend.
She was once belting the chorus to Radiohead's "Creep" outside of Café Crema and caught the attention of an American Idol producer.
"He was getting a cheesesteak from Geno's because he's a fucking tourist," Maopolski says, noting that the producer said he liked her style.
He invited her to film a brief appearance for the opening credits of Idol's final season. The next day, Maopolski was riding her skateboard and playing the guitar for a professional film crew.
Without ever auditioning for the show, Maopolski was featured performing for more than 10 million people who watched the season 15 premiere.
Then there was the time the Pope was in town and, while busking, she landed herself a part-time gig selling merchandise and recording parody videos like "Cray Cray for Tay Tay (Girl Craze)" with The Swiftees.
"They think I'm funny and energetic," Maopolski says. "If my dumb videos go viral, I can get some attention in the media and further my career in doing so."
It was fitting for the girl voted class clown in high school.
Whether it's on film or on the streets, Maopolski's energy is contagious. Especially when she's busking. Her sense of openness is key, Sydoryak says.
"Lily is light-hearted and never judgemental. That really shines through in her personality," she says. "People are drawn to her."
By sunset, Maopolski has made her way to Rittenhouse Square for a second session. Upon arrival, she finds her typical spot has already been taken by two young kids playing the cello.
Out of respect for the kids, Lily plays quietly. A thin, middle-aged man hops off his bike and onto the wall next to Lily for a listen, handing her a dollar folded into a paper airplane after listening intently to her rendition of Christina Perry's "Jar of Hearts."
Maopolski says donations could be as small as a smile or as large as the time in Old City, when a mysterious guy stopped his car, gave her a vintage guitar and drove away.
"People are so cool. That's what you learn out here," Maopolski says. "You don't see it every day. You just have to put yourself out there and good things come."
Those small interactions add up to a massive stage when Maopolski performs on the streets of Philadelphia. That's what really matters to her.
With no ticket sales, no tours and no rules, Maopolski says busking is special. No matter the street or the stage, it feels like where she belongs.
"It's a little piece of magic I found," she says.

Fiddle & Banjo
This workshop leads participants through an exploration of two instruments at the core of American string band tradition. After we trace the history of fiddle and banjo through American dance music of the 1800s, participants listen to live interpretations and recorded examples of African American duos such as Nathan Frazier & Frank Patterson. The evolution of this instrumental pairing is then discussed in terms of interpreting fiddle and banjo music for audiences today. Intermediate and advanced students are welcome to bring their instruments to learn a song or three to play as the workshop concludes.
Outcomes: Students learn terms such as "downbeat," "offbeat" and "fills" through observing the role of both the fiddle and banjo in jazz, old time, and bluegrass music. Students gain an appreciation for the diverse sounds that are possible on each instrument through bowing techniques for the fiddle and right hand styles of playing the banjo.
Ages: 10+ Duration: 45 - 90 minutes
Instructors: Ben Hunter & Joe Seamons


Both the universe and ourselves are regulated by universal principles.
Through understanding these we can move away from the continual pursuit of change and dissolve the barriers that prevent transformation.
We can find the inner poise, expand our consciousness and stop being at the mercy of circumstances and fate.
Five of these principles are located within the domain of space/time/matter and can be summed up as: gender, causation, correspondence, rhythm and polarity.
There are a further four outside the physical universe that can be described as: vibration, creative impulse, insight and communication.
Gaston Saint-Pierre has developed the metamorphic technique, an approach to creativity, healing, self-healing, growth and transformation that draws widely on Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Christianity and Western esoteric literature.
It is based on the fact that many of our life patterns, including illnesses and behaviour, appear to be implanted into our consciousness at the moment of conception.
Understanding these principles allows us to reform our lives. Practically, it involves touching specific areas of the feet, hands and head, allowing innate intelligence to guide life forces towards release of patterns and difficulties, ensuring the release of our potential.


The ring's the thing! A $39 knockoff of the ring that Prince William gave Kate Middleton went on sale over the weekend on QVC, and nearly 30,000 were sold!
"We wanted as close a replica as we could," said QVC.
The QVC ring looks just like Kate's 18-carat sapphire ring, surrounded by 14 diamonds.
Meanwhile, there are reports out of England that the pressure of becoming a Princess bride is already getting to Kate.
The London Daily Mail quotes a source close to the royal family as saying, "Kate is so nervous she is having counseling organized by the royal family to help her."
This is to thwart the problems that plagued Princess Diana, who felt depressed and isolated within months of her wedding to Prince Charles.
Prince William took time over the weekend to unwind at a soccer game with his buddies.
And Ann Hathaway hosted Saturday Night Live, portraying Kate Middleton as she meets her future in-laws. In the spoof, the Queen and her husband turn out to be quite rude and crude.
Chicago blogger Ana Fernatt was a classmate and friend of the couple when they were students at St. Andrews University where they met. She'll never forget bumping into William in a dormitory hallway. He was wearing nothing but a towel around his waist!
Fernatt told INSIDE EDITION, "Seeing the Prince like that sticks in your mind. He has an incredible upper body I must say."
INSIDE EDITION's Megan Alexander asked Fernat, "Did girls throw themselves at Prince William?"
"You can't deny it's every girl's dream is to beocme a Princess. Not only is he attrtactive, he also comes with a lot of power," said Fernatt.
To read Ana's account of Will and Kate's romance, see her post here.

One of the many benefits provided by Matrix Gemini's unique configuration tools is the ability of customers to access and use these tools to configure and update their system themselves.
The simplicity and power of the tools mean that users can make use of them at different levels – some handle the entire configuration, while others may just make small adjustments as circumstances in their laboratory change. The beauty of this approach is that it is without risk, since any configuration changes and additions made by users can be supported by Autoscribe as part of the standard Matrix support agreement. Configuration changes are subject to version control and copies of the changed configurations can be sent to the Autoscribe support department.
The Matrix configuration tools allow easy and safe configuration changes to be made. Matrix Gemini LIMS is supplied with 3 separate databases and each database can have its own independent design. Typically one database is the live system used on a day to day basis, another may be for archived samples and the third used as a sandbox for development and/or training purposes. These multiple databases allow users to develop any configuration changes and test them before they go live. In addition, the version control allows previous configurations to be loaded back into the live system if required. Users can, therefore, return to a previous version of the system should they want to. All configuration changes are tracked with user ID, date and time.
Self-configuration can benefit laboratories of any size. The configuration tools use an intuitive visual workflow screen editor that shows the screen being configured along with all the options and control properties associated with that screen. An unlimited number of screens can be created, modified and integrated into the system. This is done without custom coding or the use of esoteric, proprietary scripting tools and allows the building of workflows to suit any laboratory.
For single site organizations, there is complete flexibility to specify the initial set-up to reflect specific working practices. However there are also significant benefits for larger organizations. For global businesses, different user experiences and workflows can be optimized at each site to fit local requirements. People within the organization can be trained to a high level in the use of the configuration tools since no specific programming skills are required, and local configurations modified as required. This flexibility is not limited to use within global organizations. The same principles can be applied to deal with different departments within any organization. For example a pharmaceutical company could have different configurations for, say, QC/QA, R&D, clinical trials, biobanks, drug metabolism, stability study and pre-clinical pathology departments. Users trained in configuration can help to meet the varied needs of these departments.
The underlying software for all Matrix Gemini LIMS systems is the same for all customers irrespective of their configuration. Upgrading the software to the latest release is just a matter of loading the new software. Each customer's unique configuration is stored within their own system database and simply overlays the software without any need for modification. This makes software upgrades much less of an issue than with LIMS systems that hardcode their workflow screens, enabling customers to reap maximum benefit from new and improved features in the most up to date software releases. Since all customers use the same core code it also makes support a much easier task.
Autoscribe has a number of customers who handle their own configuration actions and some of these are highlighted in our many case studies. Take a look at examples such as: Allied Technical Centre, Cavendish Nuclear, Energy Innovation Centre at WMG, University of Warwick and Guy's & St. Thomas' Bioresource Centre, to see how they have utilized self-configuration.


As we all are subjected to work in a defined manner, there will be some events when things will not go our way, but that is expected as don't have any control over it. But when it's about our work space and technology to which most of us are following, each event happens for a reason. So if you are having trouble with your files then it is sure there must be some reason for it and that also means that there would be a possible solution for it. Well personally this is the best part of technology and computers that I like the most, the flexibility to reverse any action. It is very usual to find yourself in a situation where you are trying to delete a file and it is followed by an error message, or you try to move one of your file and it's just not happening and with effect of these events you start feeling that your computer does not obey you anymore. If that's the case then be assured and take breathe of relief your computer is not going crazy. Most of the time when you find yourself involved in such a problem you get startled and try to take the situation in control and in the wake of doing it, you end up something more complicated and serious. So it's better not to mess with things on which you are not sure. But that doesn't say that you quit, but in spite of that you can find a better solution, a good tech friend to help you and make your life whole lot easier with messed up files.
Long path tool is an application that has an expertise in solving any problem related to file management and handling. There are events when you get stuck when trying to open a locked file and you have no idea about it this is when you can use this tool to the best. The tool is capable of solving any possible file management problem then whether it be moving a file to a different location, deleting a file, renaming a file, finding error when trying to open a file, or some error related too Path too long, this software is capable of handling all these errors.
So now when you know what it does, you would be trying to figure out from where to get it? You can download this amazing application from www.longpathtool.com . As soon as you download this tool, half of your problems will be solved. Now what next? The next step would be to install it in your main drive. Always remember to have a desktop icon of the tool for the quick access. The Long Path Tool replaces the windows explorer and takes its role of managing and locating files. Now when you would be dealing with files with a very lengthy path or file name, all you have to do is to double click on the icon of the tool. The Long Path Tool will direct you to the window where you will see all your files and you will be able to carry out any operation with your file. Sometimes some files are tried to be misused by any third party and this conducts a sharing violation, and you wonder how to revert it back. Here is the catch you can always use your friendly Long Path tool to tackle the situation from your end and it will make it go right for you. The errors which you encounter while working with your files are due to two main reasons. The first possibility is that the file on which you are working is corrupt due to which it is not responding to your commands. The other is that any virus is controlling and infecting your files, and generally this is the main reason. In both of these cases what Long Path Tool does is that when you it keeps as eye on all the files of your system and whenever it detects any suspicious activity with your files, the tool blocks it, and this way your files are always safe.
The Long Path Tool is compatible with all the operating systems that are in use today. From ancient Windows 98 to the latest Windows 8, it works smooth with all of them. Now if you want to try this application before actually buying it, which are a very wise step, then you can easily download the trial version for free from the website. And after the trial period is over you can go ahead and claim your full version of the tool. The Long Path tool is actually a very useful thing to have as it will keep your work flow smooth and you will never feel the same difficulty in handling files.

Fremantle to Keynote at this year's MIPCOM
Posted by Rebecca Ash | Sep 6, 2022 | News |
RX France (formerly Reed MIDEM) has announced that Fremantle Group CEO Jennifer Mullin and Fremantle Group COO & CEO Continental Europe Andrea Scrosati, will give a keynote address at MIPCOM CANNES (17-20 October).
Taking to the stage on the market's second day, Mullin and Scrosati will provide insights into Fremantle's future strategy alongside their take on wider industry issues and trends in what has been an incredibly productive year for the global content powerhouse.
The session comes with 2022 having seen high-profile acquisitions of world-class production companies by Fremantle, including Element Pictures (Conversations With Friends, Normal People, The Favourite), Lux Vide (Medici, Devils), Dancing Ledge Productions (The Salisbury Poisonings, The Responder) and Eureka (Holey Moley, The Real Love Boat); this alongside talent partnerships with globally-renowned creatives including Angelina Jolie, Neil Cross, Paolo Sorrentino, Luca Guadagnino, Michael Winterbottom, Jimmy Fallon, Sir Kenneth Branagh, Simon Cowell, Penelope Cruz, Pablo and Juan De Dios Larrain and Cara Delevingne.
It also follows a prolific year for Fremantle's growing film business with a first Oscar nomination for The Hand of God; The Eight Mountains being awarded the Prix Du Jury Prize at the 75th Festival de Cannes, and most recently Bones and All, L'Immensità and The Eternal Daughter all being entered into competition at this year's Venice Film Festival – a total of 30 movies produced in 2022. With over 100 dramas to be delivered in 2022, Fremantle's slate has now three times more drama series coming from outside the US and UK than major US Studios.
Fremantle continues to be a global player in the non-scripted world producing iconic shows such as Idol, Got Talent, Family Feud alongside new shows for global streamers such as Too Hot To Handle (Netflix's "most popular competition series ever"). Fremantle has been named formats distributor of the year by K7 Media for three years in a row.
Mullin and Scrosati are the latest creative leaders to be added to the conference programme's agenda-setting Media Mastermind keynote series which features leading global executives and creatives from the tv industry speaking from the world-famous Palais des Festivals stage. The session will be hosted by Variety's Executive Editor of International and Senior Writer, Manori Ravindran.
Billed as "the mother of all entertainment content markets," the 38th edition of MIPCOM CANNES will gather more than 10,000 senior international television producers, buyers, commissioners and creatives from the industry's major studios and platforms worldwide. More than 250 exhibiting studios and distributors from 45 countries are confirmed for the annual International Co-Production and Entertainment Content Market.
Jennifer Mullin and Andrea Scrosati said: "MIPCOM CANNES has always been a central showcase of TV excellence & opportunity. We are delighted to be back once again to meet with the industry's finest and we are honoured to be taking to the stage to share Fremantle's growing vision to be the place creatives call home."
Lucy Smith, Director of MIPCOM CANNES and MIPJUNIOR said: "MIPCOM CANNES is THE place to hear from global creative leaders. It's a pleasure to welcome Jennifer and Andrea to the Cannes stage after such an eventful year for the company and for the industry to hear the thinking behind the strategy."
The week-long MIPCOM CANNES conference programme helps define the TV industry year, with world premieres of highly anticipated series and exclusive trend insight presentations also featuring alongside keynote sessions. Diverse, inclusive storytelling and mentoring remain at the heart of the MIP mission and will be elevated throughout the programme and the market.

New opportunities beyond newspaper printing
One of the most extensive investment projects in the European newspaper industry is currently heading into its final phase. Since 2017, Belgium's biggest newspaper printing plant, Coldset Printing Partners (CPP), has been renovating the printing section at its Paal-Beringen site. In future, there will be five production lines instead of four. CPP, a customer of Ferag for many years, has invested in equipment such as the tried-and-tested MultiSertDrum, MultiStack and StreamFold components.
In 2010, Coldset Printing Partners's newspaper printing plant in Paal-Beringen was set up as a joint production facility for media companies Corelio and Concentra. Today, newspapers such as De Standaard, Het Nieuwsblad, De Gentenaar, L'Avenir, Gazet van Antwerpen, Het Belang van Limburg, De Limburger and Metro are printed here, approximately 80 km to the east of the capital Brussels. CPP is the biggest coldset printing company in the country with an output of almost 600,000 newspapers per night. Following a merger in 2017, it is now part of the Mediahuis media group.
Under the direction of CEO Paul Huybrechts, optimizing production has become an ongoing focus for CPP. Between 2010 and 2013, for example, insertion technology which had been used for 20 years was replaced with three much more efficiently designed Ferag MSD inserting drums. This was also when the company invested in a StreamFold quarterfold line for the first time.
A wider variety of formats
In 2017, CPP set to work on another three-year renovation of its production technology. This would enable the printing plant to focus more on semi-commercial products and therefore offer more newspaper formats, a higher print quality and more postpress processing services in future.
The four KBA Commander printing lines in use up to that point, each of which featured three towers and a folder (for 96-page tabloids), were retrofitted and re-configured over the six phases of this project. Now only seven of the previous twelve towers remain, with two 64-page machines and one 96-page one. However, the Commander machines are being supplemented with two new KBA Cortina waterless offset newspaper rotation presses (each with two towers and a folder for 64-page tabloids). In future, CPP will boast five production lines with five folder deliveries and will therefore need an additional postpress processing line in the mailroom.
A second quarterfold line
Expanding opportunities in postpress processing is particularly important for enabling CPP to focus more on high-quality newspaper products. For this reason, a second Ferag StreamFold quarterfold line has been installed. Together with the variable web width of the Cortinas – from 1200 to 1620 mm, thus covering page heights in Nordisch, Rhenish and Berliner formats – this allows for a variety of product types right down to magazine format.
While one of the Commander machines has now been fitted with the pre-existing but refurbished ETR inserting drum (since it is mainly used for products which rarely have anything inserted), CPP is installing a newly acquired MultiSertDrum inserting drum behind the Cortinas. This is the fourth of its kind to be set up in the CPP mailroom. Besides this, the DiscPool for both Cortina production lines is being enhanced using state-of-the-art Ferag technology. More capacity has also been created in the bundling area, with two further MultiStack compensating stackers added to give the CPP postpress processing lines ten bundling lines in total.
Fifth mailroom line already in operation
CPP has traditionally tended to work offline (using Ferag MultiDisc winding machinery) in order to reach full printing press speed in the insertion area despite numerous changes of product. All the new Ferag components are therefore also in operation, along with all five postpress processing lines, although the second new newspaper printing press will not start production until early 2019. The entire project is being carried out while operations are ongoing and is scheduled to finish in June 2019.
Paul Huybrechts is completely satisfied with Ferag's project planning and management: "Since 2007, we have worked step-by-step with Ferag to update our postpress processing and to make it more efficient. This has always been very effective and the latest project has also gone very well."

Life in La'ie During World War II
La'ie, Hawaii, World War II
Prior to the coming of Nebeker and Hammond to purchase the land for the Church. My recollection of stories that were told to me by my great-grand Aunt who lived to be ninety - four, is that, ... some of you may have seen pictures of La'ie. La.'ie was sand dunes. My mother said when she was growing up you could stand at La.'ie school and see all the way down to Pounder's. There was no brush, no trees, no plants, just sand dunes. And so because of that the water being in the foot hills our families lived in the foothills on this side of the Temple were the Kanahele(s), the Kaio(s), the Kekauoha(s). On that side of the temple up in Po'ohaili, were the Apuakehau(s), the Nainoa(s) that came later, by my Great -great Grandfather, and the Pukahi(s) and the Kamauoha(s) on that side of La'ie. They raised their taro in the wetlands there, they grew their 'u 'ala which is the sweet potatoes, their bananas, their 'ulu and came down to fish from the ocean. This was their subsistence. They had a very hard life here in La.'ie.

Q: react-query: how to avoid race condition and ensure synchronization order of dependent mutations when returning from offline state? I have 2 mutations:

*

*Create a draft post.

*Submit a draft post.

They need to be executed in order - a draft must be created before final submit.
When I am in offline mode, I can execute the mutations locally, but they need to be later synchronized.
Once I am back online (without closing the app meanwhile), the mutations start to synchronize themselves automatically, sending backend calls at the same time. There is a chance that second mutation is handled by the backend before first finishes, resulting in an error.
How can I make second mutation wait for the first one to finish?
The problem does not exist when reopening the app and hydrating the state, because queryClient.resumePausedMutations function synchronizes mutations in order, meaning second mutation waits for the first.

A: The situation where 2 mutations fire at the same time is a bug which will be fixed in a future update.

Q: Why is this unreachable code? Got a practice question, and I have the below code:
while (false) { x=3; }

The x=3 is unreachable code, and I don't really understand why. There is a similar section of code:
if (false) { x=3; }

which is perfectly valid.
May be a bit of a noob question, or may be I'm just missing something, but if you could help me understand why that'd be great, thanks!
I am asking specifically about the difference between the if and while statement, because the same line of code changed to if, is valid and will compile.

A: Read below article it will answer your question:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-14.html#jls-14.21

while statement can complete normally iff at least one of the
  following is true:
o    The while statement is reachable and the condition expression is
  not a constant expression (§15.28) with value true.
o    There is a reachable break statement that exits the while
  statement.
The contained statement is reachable iff the while statement is
  reachable and the condition expression is not a constant expression
  whose value is false.

Am I the only one who enjoys and really likes Kirstie Alley?
I love Kirstie for all the reasons you have mentioned. Most importantly I respect her for those same reasons. LOL.
She is just way too cool to me.
I doubt you're alone, but I'm not one of them. I've always found her acting very one dimensional. She's pretty much played the same character in everything she's ever done. I may have thought differently had I seen her show much depth as an actor.
I like Kristy ally. She seems to have some issues with her weight but personally I find her very attractive. I think it is a disgrace how much emphsious is placed on apperance.
While I have not followed her career or really watched any of her shows or movies, I did see her on "Dancing with the Stars".
I watched her progress through the show and it was amazing to see her change from the proverbial "ugly duckling" to the "beautiful swan".
Her persistence, her ability to laugh at herself, to not give up no matter what, was truly inspiring. Not only did she make it to the finals, but she finally found her dancing feet, developed greater confidence in herself and lost tremendous weight in the process.
She is one heck of a woman and I truly admire her 'true grit'.
I have no doubt that she will keep off the weight this time.
I like her a lot even when she was heavy, she's down to earth and she keeps it real.
What is your motivation for writing?Some days it's hard to drag yourself out of bed, let alone write something that people will want to read. What is it that really motivates you to write?
