MANDALAY — After struggling with criticism of its name, a new political party formed by prominent activists during the 1988 student uprising finally received the green light from the Union Election Commission (UEC) on Friday to be registered.
The UEC announced on Friday in state-run newspapers that the registration of 'The People's Party,' has been granted in accordance with the law for the registration of new political parties.
Initially, the party was named 'The Four Eights People's Party' and received criticism over the use of four eight digits (8888) which refer to the historical nationwide pro-democracy uprising against the Ne Win dictatorship that began, led by students, in Yangon on Aug. 8, 1988.
The registration of this new political party had been stalled as the UEC told the party founder to change its name after a series of complaints and rejections were reportedly sent to the UEC.
In early July, the party founder changed the party name to 'The People's Party,' dropping the 'Four Eights,' and then reapplied for party registration with the UEC.
Since their party is now registered as a new political party, they will submit lists naming their central committee members and party members within 90 days, according to the rules and regulations stated by UEC.
"We are now officially able to use our party name, logo and flag so we will begin recruiting party members," said U Ko Ko Gyi, one of the party founders.
"After that, we will have an election within the party to elect the central committee members and will submit the lists to the UEC," he added.
Although it is expected that U Ko Ko Gyi will be the party's chairman, he refused the suggestion saying that the party will announce the list of their central committee members only after their party elections.
On the other hand, due to the delays in their registration processes, the new party will be unable to participate in the upcoming country-wide by-election.
"Although we were late for the by-election, we have many things to prepare step-by-step for the upcoming election in 2020. We will first explain the ambitions of our party to the public and will accept those who want to be our party members," said U Ko Ko Gyi, who was one of the most prominent student leaders during the 1988 student uprising.
He said that The People's Party will become an alternative choice for the voter and that the party's aim was to foster the development of political pluralism so that people have many choices.
He also said that the party will work to provide services that improve people's daily lives; for the rehabilitation of former political prisoners and their families; and to allow former political activists who have returned from exile to be involved in the country's transition.
Early in 2017, U Ko Ko Gyi and his counterparts who were among the student leaders in the 1988 student uprising, started laying the foundations of the new political party. They first attempted to register the party in December 2017.
As their new political party has been successfully registered at UEC, The People's Party has become the first political party to be founded and run by student activists of the country's historic student-led uprising in 1988.

Ye Olde Societae

In the so-called mundane world (what some would call reality), they're everyday folks -- teachers, artists, computer experts, librarians. As members of the Society for Creative Anachronism, they take on another name, another persona -- a character who would be at home in the Middle Ages.
The Society for Creative Anachronism, with several active groups in South Florida, is a decades-old international organization geared to studying and re-creating pre-17th-century Europe. Broward County's group, the Shire of Sangre del Sol (part of the Kingdom of Trimaris), boasts about 55 members who re-create bits and pieces of the Middle Ages (spanning the 600s to the 1600s) through workshops such as weaving and beer brewing, arts and sciences competitions, weekend camping trips, and weaponry tournaments.
Participating in the society is a hands-on education in history, enthusiasts say.
"We learn about the Middle Ages by actually doing and participating," says Lord Michel de Laraque, a 14th-century Frenchman, also known as Michael Harvey, a Fort Lauderdale graphics artist. "We're history nuts. Harmless history nuts."
Which activities one chooses and how strictly one adheres to authenticity depends upon the member. Some are into sewing period clothing or cooking or brewing beer. Others participate in singing, dancing, and other forms of entertainment, such as juggling. Harvey is among those who are interested in the styles and techniques of using a sword and shield -- something that he maintains is akin to studying martial arts.
For SCA camping trips, some wear carefully researched, hand-sewn clothing and sit on seats they've concocted of two planks. Others keep their laptop computers and other features of modern-day life discreetly concealed in their tents. Harvey, as Deputy Successor Seneschal (vice president of the Broward group), conceals his digital organizer in a satchel on his belt. If someone brings along a portable phone, others sometimes refer to it as a carrier pigeon.
"Within the site, we ask that you make the attempt at playing the role," Harvey says. However, the word creative is in the title of the society, and that word allows for some liberties. During feasts, Maeve Firehair has been known to include Pez dispensers as part of her table setting, Harvey confides. She might sip on a Coke, but she'll pour it first into a goblet. Firehair is sometimes called Jill Faubert, a third-grade teacher from Deerfield Beach.
The Broward group, she says, is a friendly bunch of partiers. What draws some folks is the emphasis on being part of a society within mainstream society. Faubert says those traits carry over into the everyday world. "You'll find yourself opening doors for people," she says. "Chivalry and courtesy -- it's very much alive."

Who is Lucie?
Lucie Coutaz was instrumental in the birth of the Emmaus movement. For Abbé Pierre she was "the one, without whom, nothing would have been possible."
Lucie Coutaz was born in Grenoble in 1899. After five years of paralysis, she recovered in Lourdes in 1921. A union leader for the French Confederation of Christian workers, she was recommended to Abbé Pierre in 1942, and joined the French Resistance with him during the Second World War. Abbé Pierre appealed to her again in 1945 and she became his parliamentary secretary.
Lucie was appreciated for her sense of action, availability, her discretion, leadership and efficiency. The true co-founder of the Emmaus movement alongside Abbé Pierre, she supported him with all of his work until she died on 16 May 1982. Even though Lucie worked behind the scenes, she became a pillar of strength and stability, not only to Abbé Pierre and the Emmaus community, but also to the local community. She was widely known as Mother Coutaz.
When it came to naming the new Emmaus Mossley café in 2015, our community members and supporters voted for the café to be named after Lucie. This will hopefully act as a lasting tribute and recognition for someone who played a vital role to early life of Emmaus.

ISELIN, N.J. — McDonald's USA is making nutrition choices fun and easy for families in New York City tri-state with the introduction of a fresh, whole fruit side in kids' meals — Cuties California Clementines®.
Starting in December at McDonald's restaurants in New York City tri-state and across the country, kid-sized Sun Pacific Cuties will join McDonald's lineup of Happy Meal and Mighty Kids Meal side choices that currently includes apple slices and Go-GURT® low fat Strawberry Yogurt.
Cuties, grown in California, will be available for a limited time during their peak season through March 2015.
The addition of Cuties supports McDonald's ongoing dedication to children's nutrition and well-being.
Fresh Cuties offer an excellent source of Vitamin C and provide about one-quarter cup of fruit.
They can also be purchased a la carte.
Before introducing them to restaurants nationwide, McDonald's tested Cuties in approximately 70 restaurants around Austin, Texas.
The company is also testing smaller-sized "junior" bananas at restaurants in the Austin and Southern Colorado areas.
"Our partnership with McDonald's allows us to share our sweet, easy-to-peel Cuties with even more people across the nation," said Victoria Nuevo-Celeste, vice president of marketing at Sun Pacific.
The introduction of Cuties supports McDonald's partnership with the Alliance for a Healthier Generation, an organization founded by the American Heart Association and Clinton Foundation, to increase access to fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy and to help families make informed choices.
McDonald's has also made significant progress on its nutrition journey since introducing its "Commitments to Offer Improved Nutrition Choices" in 2011.
In March 2012, McDonald's started automatically including apple slices in every kids' meal.
Since then, more than 1.2 billion bags of apple slices have been served.
Since its introduction, McDonald's has served more than 50 million Go-GURT low-fat yogurt tubes in kids' meals.
* Go-GURT® at McDonald's has 6g of sugar per 2.25oz.
The leading kids' yogurt has 9g of sugar per 2.25oz.
Back in the early 2000s, Sun Pacific pioneered California grown mandarins.
Today, Sun Pacific farms more than 30 thousand acres of fresh fruit and is the exclusive grower and distributor of Cuties® Clementines and Mandarins.

This Christmas Pizza is the perfect way to use up any leftovers from the big Christmas lunch.
Super fast recipe for the days in between. After the big Christmas lunch there are always so many leftovers and the question is what to do with them. Nobody wants to chuck any of those lovely roasted veggies or the beautiful beef or turkey that they made, so I came up with a superb idea to make use of most of your leftovers and please the whole family as well.
Make a leftover Christmas pizza with the help of your Thermomix. This one is particularly tasty and you can vary your toppings however you like. I have given you some options in the method. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas!!!
Place the water, yeast and olive oil in the mixing bowl. Warm 2 Min. / 37°C / Speed 2. Add the strong white bread flour and sea salt flakes and knead 2 Min. / Kneading Function.
Leave to prove in the mixing bowl for 1-2 hours until doubled in size. Tip the dough onto a floured surface, shape into a large rectangle and transfer onto a large baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Prick with a fork a few times and leave for 10 minutes to relax while preparing the toppings. Instead of making a large sharing pizza, you can also make smaller round pizzas. Simply divide the dough into 300g balls and roll them out into 1cm thick circles.
You can use any leftovers but this version makes use of some leftover cheese, roast ham or turkey and combines it with some leftover veggies. If you prefer to use up some roast beef, you can do that as well or if you have quite bit of roast veggies to use up, just leave out the cranberry sauce and use chopped, tinned tomatoes instead of sour cream as the pizza base.
Spread the sour cream over the pizza, leaving a bit of a border for the crust. Season with the salt and pepper and decorate with the sliced leftover meat. Then evenly distribute the Brussel sprouts on top and dot some red onions, brie and cranberry sauce here ant there until the pizza is nicely topped.
Preheat the oven to 250°C / 230°C Fan / Gas Mark 9. Once hot, place the pizza in the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes until golden brown. Serve immediately with some leftover gravy to dip the crust. Enjoy!
omg.. really looking so yummy… thanks for sharing.

In my last post I talked about manifestation and committed to a 2+ minute daily practice. Each day I would visualize and deeply feel my future excellent life unfold. Today I'm back to report on my progress. It's a mixed bag.
Week one was a big success. Both because I genuinely felt more optimistic and also I noticed actual changes. I think I was experiencing endorphins as a result of my heart swelling visualizations! Amazing right?! Which meant my personal vibe actually increased. At least I think that is how I best explain what happened. What happened was more of the type of opportunities needed to live into my dreams appearing before my eyes. People, invitations, informations. That sort of thing.


It's exciting to be involved in the Sunsuper Appian Digital Transformation project. Sunsuper is one of Australia's largest superannuation funds with more than $45 billion in funds managed for over 1 million customers.
Procensol, a Trusted Appian Partner, has been engaged by Sunsuper to support their major transformation and digitisation program. The program aims to change the way Sunsuper manages customer records, processes and transactions.
As can be seen in this video interview from Appian the customer is at the heart of everything that Sunsuper does and so having a low-code, rapid transformation application such as Appian is important to ensure they maintain excellence in customer experience whilst undergoing major digital change.
As Sunsuper say themselves, "there is almost nothing Appian can't do". When embarking on this project the goal was to keep up with changing customer and employee demands for digital services, and to undertake the transformation to its business quickly…all without disrupting the existing customer experience. For Sunsuper it was all about quality, capability, ease of use, customer excellence and rapid time to market with the transformation.
And they are already achieving this. The first manual process to be tackled was digitised in just under eight weeks – a tremendous result for all involved. The outcome being a completely automated, paperless process.

Feature Content, Interview
Interview Series: Wes Wright and Andy Wilcox of Imprivata
Digital identity experts, Imprivata, recently joined us for the latest edition of HTN Now – to offer their expertise and experience in a webinar alongside Andy Kinnear, Partnership Director at Ethical Healthcare.
HTN spoke to Andy Wilcox, Imprivata's Senior Product Marketing Manager, and Wes Wright, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) for the company, just before the live event – to find out even more about digital identity, as well as what else they're currently working on.
Hi Andy and Wes, tell us about your roles at Imprivata
Andy: I'm the Senior Product Marketing Manager for International Markets. My role is really to work very closely with our customers to understand how our products are used, how they fit it into the market, what kind of activity they support, what kind of benefits they bring. And then to be able to relate that internally, to also be able to align our products beyond individual user requirements to things like national requirements, legislation, regulation and accreditation – and ensure that we're positioning our solutions correctly in the market.
Wes: I'm the Chief Technology Officer. It's two major roles, actually. [The first is] I try and take a look from the customer side. I try to maintain most of my customer relationships that I had when I was one of them and try to talk to them as much as possible, to try and discern where they're going, what they need from an Imprivata perspective and using my background to anticipate what they'll need – so, product strategic direction.
[The second part of the role is] corporate strategic direction – the digital identity framework. I spend quite a bit of time just talking with the customers to help our sales folks understand what resonates with our customers. It's a very strong customer-facing role, which is kind of unique for a CTO position.
What projects are you working on at the moment?
Andy: One of the key things that Wes and I are quite involved with at the moment is our digital identity framework, which we introduced last year. We've been in the industry for what must be coming up to 20 years now – healthcare, IT security, identity and access management – and we've learnt a lot from the customers and partners we've worked with, about how important identity has always been but is also increasingly becoming within the technology space in general and in healthcare.
It's about how we encapsulate all of these different areas that identity touches within an organisation and helping those organisations to view identity in a much more unified manner. And to be able to communicate and guide internally a direction that says, 'identity is a fundamental part of what we do: for us to be successful with technology in the organisation, identity needs to be a lynchpin of that strategy'.
The framework is a kind of map to that, the guide to an organisation. So that's one of the really critical things we're working on at the moment. We're working on a maturity model for it as well – rather than just being a framework you look at, it's a tool to evaluate where you are in terms of how you look at identity within a particular category. And then use that as a driver to build a roadmap for addressing any of those challenges that exist, or any improvements to increase maturity. That's probably the most important piece of work that I'm doing at the moment.
Wes: Andy and I actually are – from an international perspective – hand-in-glove on the digital identity framework. There are some other things outside of that – we've made a couple of acquisitions over the years. One of the things for me – using my background of 25 years on the health delivery side – is to figure out where those product integrations will bring the most value to our customers.
How will the digital identity framework help organisations?
Wes: It's aimed at healthcare IT workers, for them to build a strategy or roadmap for their digital identity strategy. It's one of those foundational things. The better digital identity strategy they have, the better and more efficient and IT-transparent the digital identity interactions will be for the clinicians. Really, it's a building block to get to clinician satisfaction.
We like to call it 'the lock and key to the front door' of healthcare. The easier we can make opening that door for the clinician, the less burdensome it is to them and the more transparent. Hopefully it helps with the burnout problem we're experiencing.
Andy: I would absolutely agree. Just drilling into the micro-detail of a clinician, think what the implications of access to multiple systems and devices are. We all acknowledge that we can't just leave a computer open or an application open with confidential information accessible through it.
We have to provide some kind of barrier to that. The easiest and simplest way is a username and password – we've all grown up with that over the last 30 years or so. But that's not feasible for a clinician who's on the back of a 10-hour shift, who's just trying to access a patient record, to record a prescription or add a note or some observations. Asking them to enter a 15-character password, which is a combination of uppercase and lowercase characters and numbers – there's that human factor of frustration.
What you need to do is make sure clinicians can have access to the tools they need to give high-quality care, and with the right levels of information governance and information security but making it as seamless and efficient as possible. Having that broader strategy is about ensuring clinicians can come and deliver the highest possible care they can, which technology facilitates – but without any of the barriers to accessing it. [A digital identity framework] is the keys to the kingdom, in a way.
We worked with Royal Surrey NHS FT last year on a new project, where they wanted to give clinicians access to communicate on COVID wards with the team who were in the non-infection areas, using mobile devices. Imagine a clinician trying to log into a mobile device with a keypad and tiny text, while fully gowned up in PPE and masks. Being able to take a badge and tap on the device was fundamental. That's what having a very forward-thinking view on identity gives you.
Another example was in Bolton NHS FT, where they wanted to deliver a shift from a paper-based observations process to an electronic one – and they wanted to deliver that on Samsung tablets. The clinicians said no because it was too clunky and disruptive. The only way they would do it was when we introduced the ability to tap their badge to access a device and then single sign-on to the applications. It's key there that identity is actually an enabler to digitising processes that are perceived to be simpler in manual form.
Wes: By increasing your security you actually make the workflow easier for the clinician. That's what Andy is talking about. By introducing the Imprivata tap-and-go solution, you've actually made it easier for the clinician and more secure. It's a neat thing to be able to say, frankly.
Andy: I'll give you an example of a hospital I went to – I won't name names. We were shadowing a nurse and he was called away from his workstation to go and see a patient. To lock the workstation, he switched the monitor off. That was such a stark example of someone perceiving themselves to be secure. But actually, all he'd done was switch the monitor off, and someone could come along and switch it on and have full access to his account and ability to access the records.
It's really important. Security is more than just a log in. It's about behaviour, as much as anything. You've got to find ways to encourage good behaviour and not let people find workarounds or simple ways to address complex problems – like sellotaping passwords to the back of a keyboard. It's about increasing security, but in a way that fits in with the environment you're trying to deliver into.
What does Imprivata offer from a cyber-attack perspective?
Wes: From a single product perspective, our 'confirm ID for remote access' makes you re-verify your ID. If you looked at it from a single product, that's the one that helps from a cyber-attack perspective. Anyone coming in from outside the organisation has a double authentication process.
But really, going back to the digital identity framework, at Imprivata we think that identity is actually the number one control nexus for everything that happens within the network.
It's not just a piece or a product within your digital identity strategy that provides the defence for cyber security – it's really the holistic solution. There are probably about 20 different products you could buy standalone and cobble together a digital identity strategy, but then you're looking at 20 different places trying to find something that's anomalous. When you have a unified system that talks throughout that spectrum of digital identity, it's easier to find anomalous behaviour.
We think that digital identity is the primary methodology from which you can defeat some of the cyber-attacks that are going on. But it has to be done properly. That's why we developed the framework. If done in this manner, it provides that cyber defence without interfering with those clinical workloads. That's Imprivata's contribution.
Andy: The human factor – removing the need to remember passwords or removing the need for clinicians to use passwords all the time means you can implement things like stronger password security. We have multi-factor authentication solutions which can give you that 'two-factors to access' levels of security. Moving people away from generic accounts, simple passwords and poor behaviour is a critical element. That's where the framework is crucial – in helping organisations to instil good behaviour.
Do the same ideas apply for 'insider threat'?
Andy: I've been working with a trust in the UK very recently and this exact topic has come up. They were talking about changing culture internally and they used one of our recent acquisitions – a product called FairWarning – which looks at privacy protection intelligence and record access.
That's not going to solve insider threat directly – it will give you the warnings and indicators but to some degree that may be closing the stable door after the horse has bolted. What you need to do with that is use it as a tool to help change behaviour. Having a tool that says, 'look if you do something that you shouldn't, we are going to pick you up, so let's get to a place where everyone behaves correctly and understands this is private information you shouldn't be accessing unless you have a legitimate reason'. That takes time to instil. Once staff knew there were tools in place to pick it up, they were actually proactively phoning the IT team up and saying, 'we accessed this record, this was the reason'.
Wes: One of the sayings we have is that wherever there's a digital identity event in healthcare, we'll be there. We think we can make that event less intrusive to the clinical practice. We want to get a 360-degree view of what's happening. Bringing FairWarning in [meant] all of a sudden, we got visibility of what's happening with that digital ID – from access to authentication, to what you access inside of that record. We think that is a super powerful story around that insider threat. When folks know you can see everything, then they behave more properly.
Do you expect remote healthcare delivery to continue?
Andy: From the NHS we've seen some real benefits to delivering care remotely. Are we delivering the best possible care for patients? If the answer to that – through a blended working environment or service delivery – is yes, then we should absolutely continue to support and deliver it. If at any point the answer to that is maybe or no, then we need to question whether we're doing it correctly.
Wes: That huge shift to telehealth – I hope we'll continue to see that. I think there's a lot of healthcare that can, and frankly, sometimes should be delivered via virtual methodologies. From a work from home perspective, I've been a huge proponent for many years. I think that is something that is going to be here to stay.
If there's a silver-lining from the pandemic, they're the two that I would call out – the absolute increase in virtual care and the demonstration that working from home you can still be as, if not more, productive.
What else is coming up for Imprivata in the next few months?
Wes: We're really excited about the digital identity framework and how that can help our customers. And at getting the word out that digital identity shouldn't be a point solution – that you buy pieces and parts from different vendors and then try to cobble it together yourself. With the pandemic, our customers have seen where digital identity has helped them and where digital identity has gotten in the way of their care for patients.
Andy: On an operational tactical level, we've got some exciting stuff coming up with Microsoft. We're shortly going to be making our solutions available in the Azure Marketplace. We're excited that FairWarning is coming to our fold and that's going to be a key solution under the Imprivata banner for the rest of this year.
We're also doing a really exciting project with Bolton NHS FT around our solution called Identity Governance. It's a solution that manages the Joiner-Mover-Leaver process, which is a key challenge for the NHS.
What about government funding for Single Sign On Implementations – is there a business case for organisations?
Andy: Absolutely. It was announced before the pandemic and it got forgotten about a little bit. The point Matt Hancock raised at the time about why the funding was being brought forward, the challenges and problems it was there to address haven't gone away. When you think about the pressure the health service has been under in the past 12 months, we need to be finding ways to make things easier for our clinicians to deliver care. And we need to be removing barriers, so there's absolutely a prime business case for this.

According to the NY Times, a Santa Monica jury has awarded $440,000 in punitive damages against a hotel and its owner for violations of California's civil rights laws. The jury had previously awarded $1.2 million in compensatory damages, as reported by the LA Times.
The plaintiffs are 18 individuals who belonged to a group called the Friends of the Israeli Defense Forces. They were holding a poolside event at the Hotel Shangri-La in 2010 when, according to their lawsuit, the owner of the hotel found out the nature of the event and ordered them to remove their literature and banners and get out of the pool. The jury found the hotel liable for violating the Unruh Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of religion. The hotel's chief business development officer (who is Jewish) says the hotel will appeal.

The complete moment tensors of seismic sources in homogeneous or vertically inhomogeneous isotropic structures cannot be retrieved using receivers deployed in one vertical borehole. The complete moment tensors can be retrieved from amplitudes of P waves, provided receivers are deployed in three boreholes at least. Using amplitudes of P and S waves, two boreholes are, in principle, sufficient. The similar rules apply also to transversely isotropic media with a vertical axis of symmetry.
In the case of limited observations, the inversion can be stabilized by imposing the zero-trace constraint on the moment tensors. However, this constraint is legitimate only if applied to observations of shear faulting on planar faults in isotropic media, which produces double-couple (DC) mechanisms. For shear faulting on non-planar faults, for tensile faulting, and for shear faulting in anisotropic media, the zero-trace constraint is no longer valid and can distort the retrieved moment tensor and bias the fault plane solution.
Numerical modelling simulating the inversion of the DC mechanism from real data reveals that the errors in the DC and non-DC percentages of the moment tensors rapidly decrease with increasing the number of boreholes used. For noisy P and S amplitudes with noise of 15% of the top amplitude at each channel and for a velocity model biased by 10%, the errors in the DC percentage attain 25, 13 and 6% when inverting for the DC mechanism from one, two and three boreholes.

Application and Selection Process
Every year, a scientific review panel appointed by the Council is responsible for evaluating the numerous applications by young scientists from all over the globe who aspire to participate in a Lindau Meeting.
Find an application process overview here
Who may participate?
Undergraduates, PhD students, and post-doc researchers from all over the world are basically eligible to seek participation in the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings. All details are stipulated in the official selection criteria. The main requirements are: Participants need to be below 35 years of age, should have an excellent academic track record and at least one letter of recommendation, need to speak English fluently, and may not have participated before.
Selection Criteria for the 70th Lindau Meeting (Interdisciplinary)
Selection Criteria for the 7th Lindau Meeting on Economic Sciences
There are currently two ways (for three different situations) to participate in the official evaluation and selection process:
Young scientists studying or performing research in a country where the meetings have one or more official academic partners have to be nominated by one of these partners. They may request from an academic partner to be nominated, however, no academic partner is obliged to respond to such a request, and it is the sole decision of an academic partner how to proceed with such a request.
Young scientists studying or performing research in a country where the meetings have one or more official academic partners and who cannot get nominated because of their nationality (so-called ex-pats) may apply via "Open Application".
Young scientists studying or performing research in a country where the meetings have no official academic partners may also apply via "Open Application".
The full nomination, application and review process of is conducted online. See "When do I apply?" for further information about the timeframe for nominations and applications.
When do I apply?
Every year in September/October, the meeting's academic partners nominate their candidates for participation. Young scientists who wish to be nominated should therefore contact the respective academic partner before September. Some academic partners also perform complex and/or nation-wide pre-selection processes, which require an even earlier application.
Open application is usually open at the same time, i.e., from September to October.
Once a participant has been nominated, he or she has about five weeks to fill in the online database profile. The data provided here is used for the evaluation.
How are the participants selected?
A scientific review panel appointed by the Council for the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings is responsible for selecting the participants of each meeting. The reviewers closely examine all submitted applications. The applicants' academic and research achievements, their motivation and dedication, their recommendations as well as extracurricular activities are some of the decisive details.
When can I expect the results?
Every year in mid-February to March, the results of the application process for young scientists are published. All applicants are informed individually whether they have passed the selection process and will be invited to attend the up-coming Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting.
Where do I find more information after I've been accepted?
Accepted applicants will receive detailed information about regarding the participation from the Executive Secretariat via email. Please be sure to check your inbox – and the spam filter – regularly.
The opportunity to join the annual gathering of Nobel Laureates at Lindau is provided exclusively to outstanding young scientists aged up to 35 – undergraduates, PhD students, and post-doc researchers. In order to participate in a meeting, they have to pass a multi-step application and selection process.
Applicants who have successfully mastered the application process undoubtedly represent the emerging generation of leading scientists and researchers. Apart from taking the one-time chance to participate in a Lindau Meeting, these young scientists become part of a special community – a network of excellence. As alumni of the Lindau Meetings, former participants stay connected with each other and become ambassadors of the scientific dialogue fostered by the Lindau Meetings.
The application and selection process is administered with the web-based system NAPERS.
Log-in to NAPERS
(for registered applicants or participants)
Log-in to the Lindau Alumni Network
(for current and former participants)
The commitment of Nobel Laureates to foster the exchange among scientists has been the mainstay of the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings ever since their beginnings in 1951. To this day, more than 430 recipients of the Nobel Prize have followed the annual invitation to meet the next generation of leading scientists at Lindau.
For many Nobel Laureates, the Lindau Meetings have become an integral part of their yearly schedule. More than 300 Nobel Laureates have joined the foundation's Founders Assembly in the endeavour to support the Lindau Meetings and their outreach projects.
For young scientists at the beginning of their careers, it is a valuable opportunity to meet these role models and mentors, to seek their advice, to exchange thoughts and views, and to discuss current developments in science and beyond.
At the Lindau Meetings, the Nobel Laureates shape the scientific programme with their topical preferences. As a result, the Lindau Meetings provide the unique opportunity to experience both the professional and the personal side of Nobel Laureates.

The Nobel Prize is an international award administered by the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm, Sweden. Its founder, the Swedish scientist, inventor, entrepreneur, author and pacifist Alfred Nobel, had laid down in his will that much of his wealth should be used to establish the prize. It consists of a medal, a personal diploma, and a cash award.
Every year since 1901, the Nobel Prize has been awarded to those men and women who have "conferred the greatest benefit to mankind" (from the will of Alfred Nobel) through ground-breaking discoveries, inventions or improvements in physics, chemistry, and physiology or medicine, through outstanding literature and through their commitment for peace.
In 1968, Sweden's national bank Sveriges Riksbank established The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences.

Following the Liikanen report made public in 2012, the Commission's future regulation is expected to be presented in January 2014. However, the reforms carried out in Europe have already considerably reinforced the solidity of the European financial sector, notably through increased capital requirements, but also through the implementation as from 1 January, 2015 of the short-term liquidity ratio. The separation of activities is not an operational solution.
Moreover, the adoption of the single supervisory system is a further guarantee for the stability of banks in Europe. The resolution authorities will have control over any separation of banking activities under the directive on the resolution of banking crises adopted in December 2013. National legislations have already put in place the necessary measures, as is the case with the French banking law of 26 July, 2013. This is why a European legislative proposal is not necessary: it could on the other hand be detrimental to the financing of the European economy, especially if it imposed the spinning off into a subsidiary of market making activities, which are essential for companies and governments.
French banks request at the very least that any new European regulation is inspired by national solutions that have been adopted recently and duly calibrated.


Barelang is one of most famous tourist areas in Batam which attracted many tourists. Barelang is famous for its natural beauty and beaches. The beaches are clean with white sand and clear sea water. Barelang also famous for its breathtaking underwater scenery such as Abang Island and Dedap island which is only about 20 minutes away from the end of Trans Barelang road at Galang Baru island, Barelang.
One spot which attract tourist to come to Batam especially Barelang is Barelang 1st bridge or also well-known as the icon of Batam. This 1st bridge originally named Tengku Fisabilillah bridge but people usually called it by Barelang Bridge only.
Barelang Bridge is a series of bridges connecting the islands in Barelang, such as Rempang island, Galang island, and Galang Baru island. More information you need to know about Barelang Bridge can be read here.
Recently, about a few months ago, there was a new resort built near the Barelang bridge, named HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam. Building a resort here is really a brilliant idea because it is one of the most crowded tourist spots in Batam.
And now, with the presence of HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam, will certainly add and attract the number of tourists to come to Batam, especially in tourist areas in Barelang.
Distance always be the reason why most of the people especially foreigner doesn't have more time to esplore Barelang. From Batam Center to 1st Barelang take approximately 30 minutes in normal traffic. Then how about to explore further? It will takes more time.
With the presence of HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam, starting point to explore Barelang is getting closer, so tourists can be more satisfied and can explore more tourist areas in Barelang, such as historical attractions Ex-camp Vietnam in Galang, or beaches like Vio- vio and Melayu beach. Save time!
HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam is the newest resort in Batam under Tauzia Hotel Management, as well as HARRIS Resort Waterfront and HARRIS Hotel Batam Center. The concept of this resort is for business and leisure at the mid-market level. The goal is to provide something more than just a hotel and resort, but also a lifestyle.
This resort located right before the 1st bridge of Barelang, on the right side of the road. At its entrance gate written HARRIS Resort Barelang with an elegant blend of white and green. It is quite big so you won't missed it.
HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam has an overall area of about 10 hectares with a capacity of 173 rooms divided into several categories based on its view. The rooms are divided into rooms with views towards the sea with total 68 rooms, 16 rooms facing towards the pool, 81 rooms overlooking the garden, 6 suites, and 2 villas.
When viewed from bird view, the landscape of these rooms looks like a U shape with a blend of orange blue and green like aerial photo shot below.
From the entrance gate, we will be treated to the magnificent views of the first barelang bridge, Tengku Fisabilillah on the left side, complete with a green garden that spread all the way to the resort.
About 200 meters from the entrance gate, you will enter the second entrance just before the multipurpose building or function hall of HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam. After that, the journey continues towards the main building as well as lobby resort which looks very slick and of course, instagrammable.
The lobby is very large and spacious with direct views towards the resort and the sea. From here you can see almost all the resort facilities, including the beach. Just one floor below the lobby is a restaurant. Down one floor, then you will immediately move to a wide open space and green where all the exciting activities at HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam begins.
Set foot out of the main building, there is 24 Feet Cafe where the café provides food and beverages aka snack to relax and enjoy the resort and the sea. Price? Quite affordable and varied. Beside of the building on the right and left side is a lounge with open and relaxed concept. I guaranteed, you'll feel at home hanging out and have a long chit-chat over here.
Not far from the main building, there is large children's pool. And at this resort, there are not only 1 or 2 swimming pools, but there are 3! Children pool plus a water playground and Dyno Kids Club is located at level 1, then adult pool at level 2 and infinity pool plus at level 3 just right beside adult pool, a bit downward facing directly to the beach.
Final destination, there is a wide beach for relaxing and sunbathing. Then, what about other activities Well, there are also other facilities for activity or exercise, sport and watersport. There is ATVs, jogging tracks and bicycles. Bicycles are provided near the Dyno Kids Club.
For those who want to hold meetings, incentives, conventions, exhibitions and other events, HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam also provides function hall with capacity of 500 people with 8 rooms.
A while time ago we got a chance to stay at this resort. It was cloudy afternoon when we reach HARRIS Resort Barelang Batam, but we are still very excited to come to enjoy HARRIS experience in this new resort by Tauzia Hotels.
Our room was in room 207 which is located on the left of the main building. Quite far also when to go on foot, especially when carrying a lot of goods, like us.
But don't worry, HARRIS really understand how to pamper his guest. Buggy cars has been provided in the lobby courtyard to take guests to their rooms, assisted by friendly staff. Yes, HARRIS is famous for its super friendly staff and ready to help anytime. Their service is top!
The rooms at this HARRIS are in terraced mode. Our room in room number 207 was on the second level overlooking the pool and garden view.
Entering our room, we were greeted by a very spacious and clean room decorated with orange-colored HARRIS accents. Do not miss the HARRIS bolsters who always asking for a hug. And yes! We pleased to give it a hug all night long. All rooms in this resort is a non-smoking room so that the freshness of the room is well-maintained, especially someone like us who is non-smokers and bring kids.
Short video showing our room at HARRIS Resort Barelang.
Then how about who smokes? No worry. Each room has a balcony or terrace if your room is on first floor. You can smokes outside.
The surroundings rooms are so beautiful with green and shady trees. In-room amenities just like most resorts, such as the 42-inch IP Smart TV with cable television and international satellite channels, IDD telephone, sofa, safe, self-controlled air conditioning, mini bar, coffee & tea maker, and most importantly: high speed internet.
The place for breakfast is right under the lobby, one level below. The atmosphere is cool with warm ambiance. The restaurant is half-open with the main stairway that overlooks the resort and the glass wall around the room so that you can enjoy directly to the scenery.
HARRIS carries the theme and concept of "Healthy Life". So, for the food and drinks served in this restaurant all healthy without MSG. Many food and beverage options are available at the restaurant, such as rice and a variety of side dishes, bread, salads, breads and cakes, live cooking noodles and meatballs, fresh cut fruit, porridge, herbs, rounds, juices, and much more!
After breakfast, time for activities. For those who bring families and children, like us, swimming pools are the main event. Like, you know, kids loves to play with water. As soon as we returned from the restaurant, we dropped by our room to change.
Kids pool is indeed exciting. Not only the swimming pool is spacious and textured ramps, right beside it there is a fun water playground so we can play water shoot, next to it also available playground and Dyno Kids Club, place to learn and play (non-wet). Our children did not quickly get bored because they can move to those three spots to play.
So excited, we as parents also get excited playing with our children. Really quality time, right? So excited, we have not even had time to stop by the beach. Hihihi.
Time flies so fast, the sun is rising and check out time is near. While waiting for our check-out time, play drone first. Here is a short video that has been uploaded in our social media account showing the surrounding of Harris Resort Barelang Batam from sky.

In truth, in case you do follow all of the factors above it's protected to say your wireless connection could be safer than most individuals's wired ones. A wi-fi router should come with a password and it is best to add one if there is not one. There's one other one who lives in a city dwelling right next to me. Actually I consider they are on my side.
Nonetheless, having stated that, although wired has a clear edge, that does not mean to say that wireless is either insecure, or sluggish. Teksavvy really presents a wireless service at 10Mbps and limitless but only in Chatham-Kent region. The MDR-IF240RK wireless stereo headphone system features 30mm drive models for deep bass, as much as 30 hours of battery life on a single charge, and a transmission vary up to 24 ft.
Newer versions of firmware can right pace and operation issues of the wi-fi router and can usually end in added functionality as properly. If your wi-fi router is configured to broadcast the SSID as is often the case, the consumer only wants a legitimate password.

Q: Get previous item in 2 dimensional array How do I get the previous (and next) item in a 2 dimensional array easily?
I know you can iterate using:
 for (byte x = 0; x < grid.GetLength(0); x++)
 {
   for (byte y = 0; y < grid.GetLength(1); y++)
   {
        //Here I should get previous item if certain bool returns false
   }
 }

I could do y--. But what if y is the first element in the x row? Then y = (getLength(1) -1) and x--. Which looks kinda complex to me :s
Since my array has elements of custom type 'Field', I tried to make a previousField property using this code:
    Field previousField = null;
    foreach (Field field in this.Grid)
    {
        field.PreviousField = previousField;

        previousField = field;
    }

However, this does not work with the 'for' loop iteration. Since I'm iterating on 2 totally different ways now ><. I do not know how to create a nexField property.
So, How do I create a nextField property? If not possible, how can I iterate back and forward through my array? I do need an array since I need to use indexing in other parts of the code.
EDIT: Example;
I'm making a sudoku, using the backtrack algorithm. The 2D array represents the grid (9x9 for example). So I iterate through the array, inserting random digits (making use of optimistic, 'this should be fine', otherwise, we will go  back and change).
When inserting a digit, I validate if the digit is correct (unique in block, row and column). I try all possible digits (1-9). If there are no correct digits, then I probably made a fault in the previous cell (so I backtrack). If there are no valid digits there, then go to the previous field again. If a valid digit is found, then I go to the next digit again.

A: If you only really need your previous field for this iteration, you can just track it in your loop. Something like this:
Field previous = null;
for (byte x = 0; x < grid.GetLength(0); x++)
{
    for (byte y = 0; y < grid.GetLength(1); y++)
    {
         //Here I should get previous item if certain bool returns false
         // ....
         previous = grid[x,y];
    }
}

Diego Maradona's famous pre-match warm-up routine from 1989 will be broadcast in Italian stadiums this weekend as part of Serie A's tribute to the former Napoli player who died on Wednesday in his native Argentina.
All players will take the field wearing a black armband, and a minute's silence will be observed before the kickoff of each game, with players lined up around the centre circle, the league announced on Friday.
During the minute's silence, an image of Maradona will be projected on stadium screens, and the message ``ciao Diego'' will be shown on the stands – which will be empty because of coronavirus restrictions.
At the 10th minute of each match, the image of Maradona will be projected again, in honour of his jersey number.
During the teams' warmups, the video of Maradona's warmup before Napoli's game against Bayern Munich in 1989 will be broadcast on stadium screens.
Maradona led Napoli to its only two Serie A titles in 1987 and 1990 and is considered a god-like figure in the southern city.
The Argentine died of a heart attack at age 60, two weeks after being released from a hospital in Buenos Aires following brain surgery.
Thousands of Napoli supporters made a pilgrimage to San Paolo Stadium on Thursday to light a candle, leave a scarf or a shirt and shed some tears in memory of their hero. Inside, Napoli beat Croatian side Rijeka 2-0 in a Europa League match.
Napoli hosts Roma on Sunday.
Naples Mayor Luigi De Magistris has announced he has begun the formal process to rename San Paolo the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.

Cool, thanks. Some guy offered me 215$ (250 canadian) and I didn't really know if it was too low. Looks like it's spot on then :) Cheers!


Best Buy is warning that some of its customers' payment information may have been compromised in a data breach.
The retailer is the latest company, along with Delta Air Lines and Sears, to report the cyber attack last fall against a third-party operator of its chat services. Best Buy says a "small fraction" of its online customer population may have been affected, whether or not chat services were used.
The software company, (24)7.ai, says it discovered and fixed the breach in October. The attack may have exposed customers' names, addresses, credit card numbers, card security codes and expiration dates.

This church served as the focus for religious, educational and cultural life of African Americans in the Green Grove community during the late 19th century and well into the 20th century. Deacons Perry Hudson, Isaac Shorter and Lewis Cherry held the first church assembly under a brush arbor in 1886. The first church building was destroyed by a tornado c. 1919 and the second house of worship was consumed by a fire c. 1924. The congregation then moved the church to the present site, which is three miles south of the original location.


Once you've maxed out upgrading your hardware, there's always new ways to make your PC look different and better. You can light the lights with extra RGB strips, but you've got a nice ROG Graphics Cards with RGB lighting and you want to show them off. Well, you want to vertically mount your GPU to do so.
Because I have the Cooler Master H500P White it made sense for me to use a Cooler Master Vertical Mounting set but you can use this bracket with other cases as well, it's only a small bit of kit and it comes with the bracket and a riser cable to connect your GPU to the board.

Our unbeaten run in the Championship on home turf in 2016 stretches into a fourth month – Nottingham Forest become the latest visiting team to try to end that spell.
The East Midlands outfit will also be trying to recover from a poor result on their patch at the weekend; a 3-0 defeat at the City Ground to Brentford took the West London club level on points with Forest in the mid-table scramble. Indeed, that result took Forest's run to seven defeats in the previous nine outings.
Interim Forest manager Paul Williams is also without the services of Eric Lichaj in midweek, after he picked up a pair of yellows against the Bees and took an early bath.
For the Royals, back-to-back wins could push Reading back into the top half of the standings as we approach the final month of the 2015/16 campaign.
**Matchday prices take effect three hours before kick off on the day of the game.
For full ticketing information for this fixture against Forest, click here.
Following our discussions with supporters who raised their concerns over confusion caused by operating two bus services (F2 Shinfield Park and the Mereoak Park and Ride) from the same bus stop, the club have taken a decision to change the bus stop positions at Madejski Stadium for the Shinfield Park F2 and Stagecoach 951 – 954 bus services. The Shinfield Park bus stop will be situated on the opposite side of the road to the Mereoak Park & Ride stop going forward, while the Stagecoach 951 – 954 bus services will now be positioned further down Hurst Way just before the roundabout with Biscuit Way. All other services, including the Mereoak Park & Ride will remain as normal. Please see the map below for the up-to-date bus stop sites.
Dean Whitestone is the referee this midweek – it is the first time in almost two years that he has overseen one of our fixtures. The last time came in March 2014 when a brace from Jobi McAnuff earned Reading a 2-1 win at St Andrew's at the expense of Birmingham. His most recent game involving Nottingham Forest was on October 2014, when former Reading Academy product Michail Antonio netted twice for the East Midlands club on their visit to Watford; Matej Vydra netted a penalty for the Hornets in a 2-2 draw that day.
In 33 games to date this season, Whitestone has brandished the yellow card 106 times, but the red just twice – they came in the same fixture, as Jose Baxter and Kieran Wallace were each dismissed late on for Sheffield United in their League Cup trip to Fulham.
Assisting Whitestone will be linesmen Alan Young and Matthew Buonassisi, with Tim Robinson on duty to man the fourth official's board.
Football League title partners Sky Bet have Reading down as favourites and priced at Evens for this fixture, while Nottingham Forest are 3/1 for the win and the draw is available at 9/4.
After netting at the Macron Stadium at the weekend, Ola John is 7/2 to follow up with another goal at any time against the Reds. Meanwhile 11/2 is the price on Matej Vydra to be the game's first goalscorer.
Thanks to our Official Pouring Rights Partner, Heineken, Royals fans can enjoy a beverage at the 'Royals Rendezvous' before the game. Located outside the East Stand, it is an ideal place to catch up and enjoy a drink with fellow fans before the action kicks off!

Russian interpreter found for Hedley fatal crash trial
The accused is charged with dangerous driving causing death for the 2019 crash
Monique Tamminga
Nov. 29, 2021 12:30 p.m.
The trial of a man charged in a fatal crash near Hedley that killed a young mother was delayed briefly Monday morning because no one had organized a Russian interpreter for the accused.
Andrey Malyshev is charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death related to a crash that occurred on Highway 3 west of Keremeos on March 22, 2019.
His trial was supposed to get underway Monday in Penticton Provincial Court. Malyshev has pleaded not guilty to the charge.
His defence then said his client was in need of a Russian interpreter to proceed with the trial. Crown counsel seemed to be aware of this but no one had organized an interpreter beforehand.
The judge stood down the court while they looked into where to find a Russian interpreter to either appear in person or over the phone.
An interpreter was located and the trial is proceeding but has gone into voir dire, which is a trial within a trial and all information in a voir dire can't be publicized.
The woman killed in the crash had been previously identified as Alanna Dunn, 27, who was on her way to work at Copper Mountain mine at about 4:30 a.m. when her SUV came into a collision with a commercial vehicle that overturned on a curve. Highway 3 was closed for 10 hours as RCMP investigated.
Friends have said that family was everything to the young mother.

Maclean's recently came up with a ranking of Canada's Best Places To Live by mixing together a bunch of numbers and throwing them into a formula. New Westminster placed 136th, which led some to bemoan how New West is a wasteland of bridal shops and hair salons.
There's a couple of ways you could respond to this, and I'm going to respond both ways.
First, the study looked at nine different criteria and weighed them all equally. But what if you personally rank them differently? Feel free to hit up that survey and weight things differently. I did, ranking "transit friendly", "health accessibility", and "arts & community" higher and "low crime", "high wealth & incomes", and "nice weather" lower. New West ended up 33rd for me.
But secondly and most importantly, a city isn't defined by its numbers. It's defined by its people. You can't distill down a community into nine numbers. Where on those numbers do you put Steel & Oak's awesome community-building efforts? How does Tenth To The Fraser slot in there? Or PechaKucha New West? How about last night's super-successful Music By The River, or tonight's sure-to-be-super-successful Fridays On Front? Or how the city's credit unions came together to help form a rent bank?
Where's the slider for "number of high fives given to friends walking down the street"? Or "too many volunteers came out so we had to hope that the fire marshal didn't show up for our volunteer meet-and-greet dinner"? Or "number of mayors who turn their parking spot into bike parking and then into a parklet"?
Sure, go on about how New Westminster came 136th on some arbitrary measurement. But if you truly believe that New Westminster is the 136th best place to live in Canada, then obviously you're missing out on the awesome community we have here, because there's no way that New West has the 136th best community in Canada. Top ten, definitely.

Magnetism facts for kids
Magnetic lines of force of a bar magnet shown by iron filings on paper
In physics, magnetism is a force that can attract (pull closer) or repel (push away) objects that have a magnetic material like iron inside them (magnetic objects). In simpler words it is a property of certain substances which pull closer or repel other objects.
Magnetic domains
Uses of magnets
Electromagnets and electromagnetism
Earth's magnetic poles
North magnetic pole
Reversals of Earth's magnetic field
Magnetism can be made by a permanent magnet, or by electricity in a wire. This is called an electromagnet. When magnets are put near magnetic objects, the magnet and the object are pulled toward each other. This is called magnetic attraction. Magnets can also repel (push away) other magnets. Most objects that are attracted to magnets have iron in them. Most other metals, such as aluminium, are not attracted to magnets.
Magnets have an unseen area around them called a "magnetic field". Magnetic objects inside this unseen field are attracted to the magnet. Magnetic things outside the magnetic field are not attracted to the magnet. This is why a magnet must be close to an object to attract it.
The poles of two magnets repel or attract each other. Different poles attract each other. For example, if the south pole of one magnet is put near the south pole of another magnet, the magnets will repel each other. This will also happen with two north poles that are put near each other. If a north pole is put near a south pole, the magnets will attract each other until they stick to each other and can be hard to pull apart.
Magnetism is caused by electrons (the negative particles in atoms that are also electric charges) spinning. The more a group of electrons spin in the same direction, the stronger the magnetic force. In a magnet, many electrons are spinning in the same direction.
We can magnetize a small piece of iron by 'rubbing' it with a magnet. The electrons in the iron get 'spun' by the passing magnet just like a basketball player spinning a basketball.
Magnets have many uses. One of them was found long ago when explorers found that a magnet could be used as a compass to show the direction of north & south.
Electromagnets are another kind of magnet. They only work when electricity is running through them. An electric current makes a magnetic field. If you wrap the wire into a coil, the electrons spin around the coil and make a stronger magnetic domain.
Often, these magnets work by using a coil of wire that makes a magnetic field when there is a current in it. In addition to this coil of wire, a large piece of metal, usually iron, is placed inside the coil to increase the magnetic field made. Though most large electromagnets employ many solenoids to lift heavy objects, smaller solenoids are used in everyday electronics. For example, they are used to change voltage in a transformer.
Electromagnets are used to make many things work like computers, televisions and radios and also doorbells.
Electromagnetic radiation including radio waves and light waves are used for communication including broadcasting and optical fiber, and for many other purposes.
The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's northern hemisphere where the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards. There is only one place where this occurs, near to (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole.
Its southern hemisphere counterpart is the South Magnetic Pole. Since the Earth's magnetic field is not exactly symmetrical, a line drawn from one to the other does not pass through the geometric centre of the Earth.
The North Magnetic Pole moves over time due to magnetic changes in the Earth's core. In 2001, it was near Ellesmere Island in northern Canada at 81°18′N 110°48′W / 81.3°N 110.8°W / 81.3; -110.8 (Magnetic North Pole 2001). As of 2015, the pole is thought to have moved east beyond the Canadian Arctic territorial claim to 86°18′N 160°00′W / 86.3°N 160.0°W / 86.3; -160.0 (Magnetic North Pole 2012 est).
Geomagnetic polarity during the late Cainozoic era. Dark areas denote periods where the polarity matches today's polarity, light areas denote periods where that polarity is reversed
Earth does change its magnetic poles every million years (plus or minus 200,000 years). Before a change of magnetic field, the Earth's magnetic field becomes weaker and moves around, like a spinning top would before it falls. The Earth has already had hundreds of changes (flip flops). Scientists know this as a result of studies of magnetism on the sea floor, near the mid-Atlantic ridge. The lava slowly moves out of this crevasse (gap in the sea floor) and then it cools with its iron oxide molecules all pointing in the new direction of the Earth's magnetic field. We can look at the history of this magnetic field today to look back at the many flips in the past.
Reversals occur at intervals from less than 0.1 million years to as much as 50 million years. The most recent geomagnetic reversal, called the Brunhes–Matuyama reversal, occurred about 780,000 years ago. Another global reversal of the Earth's field, called the Laschamp event, occurred during the last ice age (41,000 years ago). However, because of its brief duration it is called an "excursion".
Lodestone, a natural magnet, attracting iron nails. Ancient humans discovered the property of magnetism from lodestone.
An illustration from Gilbert's 1600 De Magnete showing one of the earliest methods of making a magnet. A blacksmith holds a piece of red-hot iron in a north-south direction and hammers it as it cools. The magnetic field of the Earth aligns the domains, leaving the iron a weak magnet.
Tip of permanent magnet with coins demonstrating ferromagnetism
An electromagnet attracts paper clips when current is applied creating a magnetic field. The electromagnet loses them when current and magnetic field are removed.
