Women's Writing Before Woold: A Social Reference/Mihoko Suzuki (2)

= Mihoko Suzuki (1953-) = Mihoko Suzuki (16 December 1953-) is a professor and well established English academic from the University of Miami, USA. She has authored, edited, and co-authored several notable articles, journals, and books, often detailing her specialty in the study of early modern England.

Biography
Suzuki began academic achievements at Cornell University, achieving her bachelor’s degree in both history and literature through the college scholar program. She would then proceed to earn a PhD in Comparative Literature at Yale University in 1982. For ten years, Suzuki established herself at the University of Miami, taking on multiple esteemed positions including the Director of the Program in Women's Studies as well as the Director for Graduate Studies in the Department of English (1). Later in 2008, Suzuki became the President for the Society for the Study of Early Modern Women and Gender and then, in the following year, she would serve as the inaugural director of the Centre for the Humanities at Miami University (1). Additionally, from 2012 through to 2013, Mihoko Suzuki was a council member of the 16th Century Society and Conference – which again took a scholarly interest in the early modern era (6).

From 2016-2017, Professor Mihoko Suzuki accepted a new role at Smith College North Hampton, as the Ruth and Clarence Kennedy Professor in Renaissance Studies. During this appointment she co-designed and co-taught a popular upper-level seminar titled “Women and Gender in Early Modern Europe: The Art of Self-Fashioning” (2). This cross-discipline course with a focus upon writings by women in Italy, France, England, and Spain was co-designed alongside fellow academic Anne J. Cruz, whom she had met at the University of Miami (3).

Suzuki has also recently published and contributed to the following essay collections, cementing her academic authority;

·      Routledge History of Women in Early Modern Europe (2021)

·      A Companion to the Global Renaissance (2021)

·      Historicizing Life Writing and Ego-Documents in Early Modern Europe (2022)

·      Margaret Cavendish: An Interdisciplinary Perspective (2022)

·      The Oxford Handbook of Early Modern Women’s Writing in English, 1540–1680 (2022).

As of the writing of this article, Suzuki currently works as the President of the International Margaret Cavendish Society, which is dedicated to promoting the works of Margaret Cavendish, a seventeenth-century writer. These academic appointments serve to highlight her interest and studies on the Renaissance era, and early modern literature, with a particular focus upon gender studies and authorship (2). Suzuki herself notes that much of her research into early modern Europe focuses upon civil wars and upheaval within the political and social hierarchies of the period (4).

Books
==== Antigone's Example: Early Modern Women's Political Writing in Times of Civil War from Christine de Pizan to Helen Maria Williams (June, 2022) ==== The most recent of Suzuki’s published works, this book investigates early modern women’s interventions in politics during periods of civil war in both England and France. Immediately popular within academic circles, Antigone’s Example is known for illuminating a rich set of women writers’ views of themselves as political beings. It examines how these women would utilise literary skills in order to evade censorship and empower their own political perspectives (5). It ultimately aims to “revise the history of political thought, which has heretofore focused almost exclusively on formal treatises” (1).

==== Subordinate Subjects: Gender, the Political Nation, and Literary Form in England, 1588–1688 (Women and Gender in the Early Modern World) (2003) ==== Here Professor Suzuki discusses the political lead up to the English Revolution. In her discussion of these tumultuous years, she demonstrates the importance of the contributions of non-aristocratic men and women to the political spheres. She discusses the use of discursive and literary forms for the purpose of political advancement within the seventeenth century. The book makes use of “post-Marxist theory and psychoanalysis to discuss the early modern construction of the political subject” (8). Subordinate Subjects is distinct in its contributions to early modern English literature due to its interdisciplinary focus, weaving literary scholarship with social history, gender studies, and cultural studies.

The Rule of Women in Early Modern Europe (July, 2009)
Co-written with Anne J. Cruz, this collection of essays details and examines multiple instances of powerful women throughout the medieval and early modern period in Europe. From this, a variety of timelines, female rulers, courts, families, and representations of women’s writings are analysed, starting as early as the medieval French author Cristine de Piazan (3). Suzuki’s passion for gender studies (2) aligns with that of Cruz, as the essays utilise a distinctly feminist perspective, discussing the oppositions women in power often faced.

Metamorphoses of Helen: Authority, Difference, and the Epic (September, 1989)
Metamorphoses of Helen examines Helen of Troy as a figure of political authority (1). Suzuki highlights the literary tradition that holds prominent women and their descendants responsible for socio-political conflicts, more so on a mass scale. The book suggests the woman’s perspective is an alternative source of poetic and political power, as the epic genre has often been a hypermasculine one. Of particular note is her discussion of both the Illiad and Odyssey, noting that even in the eyes of the poetic authors, the role of women is marked by a “undecidability of function”.

Women's Literacies and Social Hierarchy in Early Modern England (November, 2015)
Co-authored with Margaret Ferguson, this article argues for an expansive, historicized notion of literacy that encompasses a broader range of textualities and authorial practices. The articles argue that common standards of literacy imposed on the past, including signatures as evidence of writing ability, are biased against women and poor men, and therefore obscure a large range of writing and reading practices. The authors call for attention to dedications and addresses to women, as well as pseudonymously, anonymously and collectively written works, as evidence for an expanded realm of women's writing and reading, and not signature alone.

What's Political in Seventeenth‐Century Women's Political Writing? (May, 2009)
This article argues for an expanded awareness of women's political writings. Here, Suzuki contextualises Anne Bradstreet's "The Four Monarchies" within a wider network of contemporaneous and earlier political works by women, challenging Bradstreet's privileged position in contemporary scholarship on 'women's political writing' and radically extending understandings of what constitutes 'political'.

Gender, Class, and the Social Order in Late Elizabethan Drama (March, 1992)
In this article, Suzuki broadens ideas of social mobility in Elizabethan England by considering a convergence of anxieties about instability in gender relations with class relations. This convergence is examined through the lens of Elizabethan plays that explore cultural anxieties about domestic and gender relations, including Twelfth Night (1601), Arden of Faversham (1591) and A Warning for Fair Women (1599).

Reputation/Legacy
Suzuki is held in high esteem amongst her academic peers, with a reputable number of contributions to the academic study of early modern and Renaissance English and European literature. Her many appointments at the University of Miami, as well as fellowships from the Folger Shakespeare Library, and the New York Public Library (2) have both earned her respect and left an impressive academic legacy.

Suzuki's books, including Metamorphoses of Helen: Authority, Difference, and the Epic and Subordinate Subjects: Gender, the Political Nation, and Literary Form in England, 1588–1688, have greatly contributed to scholarship on women's writing. Her third book, Antigone's Example: Early Modern Women's Political Writing in Times of Civil War from Christine de Pizan to Helen Maria Williams, achieved particular critical acclaim, with Margaret W. Ferguson declaring it “deeply researched, strikingly illustrated and cogently argued” (7). In addition to these books, Suzuki has helped shape the field of women's writing and early modern studies through editing and co-editing six books, covering subjects such as gender in the early modern period and contemporary feminist criticism (1).

Predefined functions
All over the Wikibook, code examples are given. Usually, they show their results somewhere in the browser. This is done via methods that are aligned with Web API interfaces and implemented in browsers.

The function  creates a modal window showing the given text.

The function  writes the message to the console of the browser. The console is a window of the browser that is normally not opened. In most browsers, you can open the console via the function key.

The function  opens the print dialog to print the current document.

The function  opens a modal window and reads the user input.

The use of  is strongly discouraged.

Coding style
Our code examples mostly contain the line  before any other statement. This advises the compiler to perform additional lexical checks. He especially detects the use of variable names which are not been declared before they receive a value.

Without the  statement the compiler would generate a second variable with the misspelled name instead of generating an error message.

Faulty visualization in some code examples
Due to a minor fault in the Wikibook template quiz, you will see  instead of   in some examples. The two slashes at the end are only shown to overcome this problem; they are not necessary.

How to Program a TI-83 Plus/Intro

= Introduction to TI-BASIC = This page will introduce you to the concept of TI-BASIC, as well as how to start your first program.

What is TI-BASIC?
TI-BASIC, to put it briefly, is the language made by Texas Instruments for their graphing calculators. Despite this, it can do quite a bit in terms of calculations and games.

To make a program in TI-BASIC, you need to follow these steps:
 * 1) Turn on your calculator.
 * 2) Press the PRGM button.
 * 3) Press the right arrow twice to go to the NEW menu.
 * 4) Press enter.
 * 5) Name your program.
 * 6) Start programming.

Great job! Now, you're in the right place to begin typing code, so let's learn our first piece of code!

This is how you display "Hello World" in TI-BASIC, and this is what it looks like when you run it. We can make this fairly easily. Start by making a program named "INTRO". In this program, press the PRGM button again. This will send you to a menu with many commands that you can put into the source code. Press the right arrow and then the 3 key. This will input the command "Disp"—which is short for "Display"—into the program. From there, you can use ALPHA to type '"HELLO WORLD"' into the program. Make sure to surround it with double quotes. You may now go to the home screen by pressing 2ND and then the MODE button.

You can run your program by going into the PRGM menu from the home screen and selecting your program in the "EXEC" portion of the menu. Then, press ENTER on the home screen to run the program.

Congratulations! You've made your first program! You can swap out the text that says "HELLO WORLD" in the source code by going into the PRGM menu and pressing the right arrow to go to the EDIT portion, or you can leave it like it is.

How to Program a TI-83 Plus/Displaying Text

In this page, you will learn the many ways to display a string of text using TI-BASIC.

Mastering the Disp Function
If you've read the previous page, you already know about the Disp function. It lets you display text on the screen using the home menu. You can use it to display a string of 16 or fewer characters.

You can also use it to display multiple strings of under 16 characters, separated by commas, which you can use to display long messages.

In fact, you can even display numbers using the Disp function.

However, there is one drawback to using Disp; it acts as if it's a regular equation typed into the terminal, and it will always display below the line that starts the program, which can provide clutter on the screen. One way we can avoid this, however, is with the ClrHome function.

Using the ClrHome function
The ClrHome function is incredibly simple; it just clears the screen for the code you're about to run.

:Disp "JAWS IS HERE","HERE IS JAWS"

This will make it so that the text will always start at the top line of the screen, because the screen will be 100% clear for the Disp function.

Now, there is one more drawback to using the Disp function; it always starts at the left side of the screen. And while you can use the space key to start further right, there is a better solution. The Output function.

Using the Output function
The Output function is similar to the Disp function in that it displays text on the home screen, but different in that the text displayed by it is always in a defined location. For example, take these two pieces of source code.

The code using Disp will appear below the message to execute the program, but the one using Output will always have the text start in the upper left corner. You can make a piece of text appear anywhere on the screen. For example:

This piece of text will appear in the bottom right corner as the first character ("B") starts in the 8th row out of 8 and the 13th column out of 16, with the last character in the 16th column.

You may look at this and think that the Disp function is useless, as Output can do many things better than Disp, however, there are a few situations in which Disp is far better.

Disp vs. Output
One downside to Output is that it doesn't support multiple arguments. For example, the code below is invalid.

In that case, Disp would be far better.

Another use for Disp is saving storage, as it only needs the string and not the location parameters.

:Output(1,1,"HELLO") (12 bytes)

4 bytes may seem puny, but this is a calculator with only 24 kilobytes of readily accessible storage, so the 4 bytes you save may add up in the long run.

Aside from those 2 points, Output is almost always better, as text can be placed anywhere you'd like on the screen. So, use Disp when you can/need to use multiple arguments, and Output everywhere else.

Using the Pause function
To end this page, let's look at the Pause function.

Pause is somewhat similar to Disp, but there are a few differences. To start, just saying Pause on its own is a valid line of code.

Secondly, Pause, well, pauses the program until you press ENTER.

:Pause :Disp "HERE IS JAWS

Pause can also be used like Disp, but it still pauses the program and it also only supports a single argument

:Pause "HERE IS PAUSE" :Pause "IT IS A COMMAND" :Pause "WITHOUT A CAUSE"

Aside from that, Pause isn't an incredibly useful command, but it is fun to use.

Conclusion
Displaying plain text is one of the most basic forms of TI-BASIC, but it still provides a lot of fun. However, if you want to interact with a program further than pressing ENTER, you'll need to learn how to input information.

How to Program a TI-83 Plus/Inputs

Using the Prompt function
Let's start with a fairly primitive command. Prompt is a basic function that prompts you to input a value into one of the 27 possible variables (the 26 letters of the alphabet + theta (θ)). You can find it as the 2nd command in the "I/O" section.

:Disp "YOU CHOSE",θ

This can be made to make some simple math programs, for example:

This is a small program that can do the Pythagorean theorem. See if you can make a program for something else math-related, like the area of a shape!

The Prompt function is great, but what if you want to say a message when asking someone for a variable?

Using the Input function
Input is a more complex command, but still very easy to learn. It works like this:

That's it! That's all you need to do to use input. There's also one other thing you can do with the Input function; strings.

Note: String variables
''If you press the VARS button, you'll be met with a menu. If you go down to the bottom, you'll be met with the string variables. These can be used to store strings, which normal variables can't. Back to the Input function now! ''

If you ask a Prompt command to use a string variable, it won't be able to, but Input will use it just like it would any other variable.

:Disp "YOU SAID",Str1,"AND WE SAY NO!"

Conclusion
Input and Prompt are the ways to make your programs truly interactive.

Infrastructure Past, Present, and Future Casebook/Brightline Rail System

Infrastructure Past, Present, and Future Casebook/Brightline Rail System
Brightline Rail System

This casebook is a case study on the Brightline Rail System by Adam Alamin, Zachary Robinson, Fahad Saad, Rodrigo Salas, and Mireen Yabut as part of the Infrastructure Past, Present and Future: GOVT 490-004 (Synthesis Seminar for Policy & Government) / CEIE 499-001 (Special Topics in Civil Engineering) Fall 2022 course at George Mason University's Schar School of Policy and Government and the Volgenau School of Engineering Sid and Reva Dewberry Department of Civil, Environmental, and Infrastructure Engineering. Modeled after the Transportation Systems Casebook. Under the instruction of Prof. Jonathan Gifford.

Summary
Brightline Rail is a high-speed train that operated under “All Aboard Florida” in its early development stages. In March 2012, Florida East Coastal Industries officially announced the project launch, which would connect Miami to Orlando. After multiple agreements, foreign investments, and funding efforts, Brightline officially began service in 2018. In 2019, the second phase of construction started in order to connect West Palm Beach to Orlando. Phase 3 is the final planned phase, and it is set to link Tampa to Orlando International Airport.

Three main challenges during the first two construction phases were faced by the companies involved: the struggle to find funding, easement acquisition resistance, and accidents. When the project was first launched, it was the only entirely privately funded railway system in the nation, but government subsidies were later provided. Brightline is currently estimated to cost $6 billion, as opposed to the original estimate of $3 billion. Current funding is centered around tax-exempt private activity bonds and, while Brightline still receives private funding, the Florida state government and the federal government are heavily involved.

This grant, an extension of the U.S. Department of Transportation's Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) program39, is planned to include 33 miles of fencing at hotspot trespassing locations along with other extensive improvements at all 333 crossings along the corridor, which will span from Miami to Orlando.

Part of these funds will also go towards installing an additional 150 warning signs and 170 additional suicide crisis hotline signs to reach out to individuals considering suicide.

Project Description
In 2012, All Aboard Florida, a wholly owned subsidiary of Florida East Coast Industries, announced the plan to operate a passenger rail service between Orlando and Miami (Railway Gazette). This new express service offers an alternative mode of transportation for 50 million passengers, who currently travel by air or road between Orlando and South Florida. Being an infrastructure project of such a large scale, the Brightline Railway system has been in the works for the past decade and will not be fully completed for years to come. Nevertheless, the project was broken down into 3 phases. Phase 1 connects Miami with West Palm Beach through Fort Lauderdale. Phase 2 of the Brightline high-speed rail project extends the railway from West Palm Beach to Orlando. Phase 3 will include a rail line between Orlando International Airport and Tampa.

Project Construction
Due to the magnitude of the project and its various locations, multiple general contractors were hired at different phases for distinct portions of the work involved.

Suffolk Construction was contracted by All Aboard Miami for the pre-construction and as the general contractor for the nine-acre multimodal station built in downtown Miami. Work on the Miami-West Palm Beach section began in mid-2014 with the laying of new tracks and temporary surface lot closures in Government Center, Downtown Miami. Site clearing and demolition began in late 2014.

Moss & Associates, was the general contractor for the West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale stations. Work on the Fort Lauderdale station also began in late 2014 with the demolition of existing structures on site.

Construction work on Phase 2, between West Palm Beach and Orlando, was officially underway in June of 2019, following a groundbreaking ceremony at Orlando International Airport. Preliminary work on the corridor began in September of 2019 and began path clearing for construction of the Orlando–Cocoa portion in October of the same year.

The contractors involved in phase 2 are Wharton-Smith, The Middlesex Corporation, Hubbard Construction Company, Granite, and HSR Constructors. These five contractors are responsible for the development of 170 miles of new track into the completed state-of-the-art intermodal facility located in the new South Terminal at Orlando International Airport. Herzog is the managing partner for the HSR Constructors joint venture constructing the express intercity passenger rail system expansion project.

Phase 1 launched on January 8th of 2018, currently running 16 daily round trips. Phase 2, after several launch date setbacks, is scheduled for launch in early 2023. While passenger trains are not yet running, Brightline began to test trains in October of 2022 at 110 mph.

In 2014, All Aboard Florida placed a contract for five train sets with Siemens USA. The first train set was delivered in December 2016, while the last was received in December 2017.

Cummins won the contract to supply the QSK95 engines for the locomotives, while the interiors of the train sets were designed by the Rockwell Group. GE Transportation was contracted to provide a signaling system for the high-speed rail service.

Florida Power & Light Company and Brightline partnered for the supply of clean biodiesel to fuel the trains. Florida Power & Light agreed to supply more than two million gallons of biodiesel-blended fuel per year under the two-year contract.

Future Development
Brightline proposes to construct a high-speed passenger rail system between Tampa and Orlando, Florida; this project is recognized as phase 3 of the Brightline Railway System. Current passenger mobility is primarily provided by highways, particularly Interstate-4 (FDOT). The Federal Department of Transportation states that projected transportation demand and travel growth, as prompted by social demand and economic development and compared to existing and future roadway capacity, show a serious deficit in available capacity. In addition, increasing population, employment, and tourism rates continue to elevate travel demand.

New stations along Brightline’s original Phase 1 and 2 routes are also programmed for future expansion under Phase 3. While the Aventura station between Miami and Fort Lauderdale is currently under construction, Brightline intends to connect its railway system 3 new stations: Port Miami on the southeastern archipelago of the Florida peninsula, Boca Raton between Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach, and the Disney Springs station located on the outskirts of Orlando heading towards Tampa. Phase 3 is programmed to begin construction in 2025 with a completion date slated for July 1st, 2028.

Funding Structure
The Brightline rail system is unique because it was initially America’s only railway system that was completely privately funded. While the government does provide substantial funding to the project, the rail system is still the only privately owned and operated railway in the United States. Florida East Coast Industries, which is a fully owned subsidiary of Fortress Investment Group, owns Brightline and is responsible for its operation. The initial cost for constructing Brightline was estimated at $3 billion but current estimates have the project costing $6 billion.

In its initial construction, Brightline received heavy investment from private entities. One of those was Virgin Group which had announced in 2018 that it would become a minority investor in the project. This deal allowed Virgin Group to rename the railway to Virgin Rail but was forced to pull back due to not upholding its financial promises.

The Brightline rail system still receives private funding, however, both the federal and Florida governments have begun to invest heavily in the project. Florida officials announced in June 2022 that Brightline rail will be receiving a grant award of up to $15,875,000 in federal funding from the U.S. DOT’s Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) Grant Program. The grant’s primary purpose is to fund preliminary engineering activities and environmental approvals.

Financing Structure
Brightline’s financial structure revolves around the selling of tax-exempt private activity bonds (PABs). These bonds are issued by Florida Development Finance Group and are valued at $2.15 billion. These bonds are primarily used to help open new routes such as its Miami-Orlando train line, and expand the service to Tampa. Due to the pandemic, ridership and revenue numbers were below projections. It had a ridership of 180,000 and a revenue of just $6 million and had to suspend the service until November 2021. In 2022, ridership has increased by 22% and revenue has increased by 66%.

Budget Allocation
In 2017, Fortress Investment Group applied for $600 million in tax-exempt bonds to construct Phase 1 of the Brightline rail. In 2019, with Phase 1 being complete, $1.75 billion tax-exempt bonds were issued to build Phase 2 and Fortress Investment Group injected $150 million equity into the project. In 2020, $950 million in tax-exempt bonds was issued to aid in the construction of Phase 2 which was 35% complete. Finally, in 2021, the project received $400 million in taxable debt to build Phase 2 which was 65% complete.

In short, Phase 1 cost $1.2 billion, and Phase 2 cost 2.1 billion. Other expenses include capacity expansion and inline station at $400 million, land and contributed assets at $800 million, pre-funded interest and debt service reserve at $800 million, and development, ramp-up, and financing costs at $700 million for a total project cost of $6 billion.

Challenges
The three main challenges that arose during both the first and second phases of construction were the battle for funding, easement acquisition resistance, and the number of accidents that occurred upon Phase 1’s completion. Easement acquisition resistance is especially apparent in the second phase as the line must now construct a completely new alignment.

For example, when acquiring funds for the second phase of construction, All Aboard Florida originally applied for $1.75 billion in tax-exempt bonds by the USDOT but after a lawsuit by Martin County, All Aboard Florida was forced to withdraw. They then lowered their application amount to $600 million. This was preceded by a similar lawsuit from Indian River County.

Unlike Phase 1, where the alignment was based on existing and repurposed freight rail lines, Phase 2 requires a lot of acquisition of new easements through existing counties. As with the example of the lawsuits with Martin County and Indian River County, resistance arises when a noisy interruption to private property is constructed in built in people's backyards.

There is also the glaring issue of the high rate of accidents linked to the line since its short operation time. Dubbed the “deadliest train in the nation” or “death train” the first phase is linked to more than 60 dead and hundreds of injuries. The theory is that this is a high-speed rail line going through relatively slow-moving residential areas.

Key Takeaways/Lessons Learned
Complexity of Planning

Both hard and soft planning for Brightline has proven to be difficult processes. For example, many aspects of planning this project were based on projections that ended up either over-estimating or under-estimating costs such as those pertaining to construction and contracting. This leads to the need to re-organize the funding structure. While originally fully privately funded, Brightline eventually began receiving heavy investment from the federal government and the Florida state government.

While map layouts of Brightline’s railways offer many incentives such as creating a high-speed train with minimum stops with easy accessibility to tourists and travelers, the train also cuts through downtown areas and coastal cities of Florida. Despite these promising plans, it is evident that Brightline has failed to account for the safety aspect such as the number of reckless drivers and individuals such as homeless people seeking shelter near the train tracks.

With the ongoing construction of Phase 2 and Phase 3, these safety issues must be addressed and kept in mind to prevent more deaths and life-threatening incidents from happening.

Economic Impacts

Brightline has been a huge economic investment for both private entities and the government who have poured billions into the project. The good news is that Brightline has aided the economy significantly. So far, Brightline has added $3.5 billion to Florida's GDP. The rail line is also responsible for $2.4 billion in labor income and $653 million in federal, state, and local tax revenue. More than 10,000 jobs are created per year through rail-line construction and more than 2,000 jobs are created post-rail-line construction.

Discussion Questions
1) Considering the three phases of Brightline’s railway construction and how only one of them is complete, is this a project worth investing $6 billion in?

2) Dubbed the “deadliest train in the nation” the first phase of the Brightline railway is linked to 60 deaths and hundreds of injuries. What are some plausible solutions to the high rate of accidents linked to the Brightline railway?

3) Considering the current track that the Brightline railway is on, what do you think the future of high-speed rail in Florida will be like? Is there a chance that it will be successful in easing the flow of traffic?

Basics of fine-art photography/Hitchhiking across Sudan

Hitchhiking across Sudan — the 11th personal exhibition of traveler and photographer Viktor Pinchuk, held at the Museum of Simferopol History, located on the main street of the Crimean capital, from 8 to 29 July 2014.

Backstory
The three-month itinerary, which included six African countries, was full of events, adventures, overnight stays in abandoned buildings, in a flophouses, at the police stations, and other unusual places. The trip coincided with a period of turmoil with clashes between rebels and Sudanese government troops. During less than a month of his stay in the Muslim country, the author of the future exhibition had time to visit several localities, but not everything he planned could be realized. On December 25, 2010, while making his way to the Nuba Mountains, two weeks before the six-day referendum that marked the beginning of Sudan's division into two countries, he was detained by the intelligence services of Sudan in Kadugli and sent to Khartoum.

Possible sock
On my local talkpage, sent a message with a fake username of "Goku". A user with that name was made around the same time, and Wikivuyo was blocked from wikipedia a few months ago for making socks. Wikivuyo, please explain your reasoning for this. It might save you from being blocked [if the Wikipedia issue makes anybody suspicious] if checkuser results say you are the same person as the Goku account, but a "please don't block me I am only twelve" isn't gonna cut it, since you could be 16, 18 or anything else, and you can't prove that claim. Feel free to do whatever based on this. I don't want it to be true, but would rather report this sooner rather than later. -- L10nM4st3r / Roar at me 14:50, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

Fractalshades by Geoffroy Billotey

=instalation=

pip install pip setuptools --upgrade pip install fractalshades

Where ?

For interactive exploration, a GUI is implemented under PyQt6.

=Projections = A Projection defines a mapping acting on the screen-pixels $$ z_{pix} = (x_{pix}, y_{pix}) $$ before iteration.

Projections
 * doc
 * file projections.py

exponential
An exponential projection will map :$$z_{pix}$$ as follows:

 * $$ \bar{z}_{pix} = f(z_{pix}) = \exp(h_{moy}) \cdot \exp(dh \cdot z_{pix})$$

where:
 * $$ h_{moy} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot (h_{min} + h_{max}) $$
 * $$dh = h_{max} - h_{min}$$

The `xy_ratio` of the zoom will be adjusted (during run time) to ensure that: $$\bar{y}_{pix}$$ extends from $$-\pi$$ to $$\pi$$

This class can be used with arbitrary-precision deep zooms.

Parameters
 * hmin: str or float or mpmath.mpf
 * scaling at the lower end of the x-axis
 * hmax: str or float or mpmath.mpf
 * scaling at the higher end of the x-axis
 * rotates_df: bool. If ``True``, the derivative will be scaled but also rotated according to the mapping. Otherwise, only the scaling will be taken into account. A rule of thumb is this value shall be set to ``True`` for a standalone picture, and to ``False`` if used as input for a movie making tool

It is defined in class

class Expmap(Projection): def __init__(self, hmin, hmax, rotates_df=True, orientation="horizontal"):

Examples projection = fs.projection.Expmap(-1.3, np.log(1.e7) + 0.3)
 * P01-feigenbaum_expmap.html
 * P04-deep_expmap

so
 * hmin = -1.3
 * hmax = log(1.e7) + 0.3 = 10000000.3

Cookbook:Cuisine of the Bahamas

The cuisine of the Bahamas covers a wide range of traditional and local meals, related or originating from the Bahamas. Often many of the dishes have a twist from other countries' meals. The cuisine of the Bahamas dates back many years and the meals that have come out are popular and must-haves.

Influences
Because the indigenous population of the Bahamas was decimated by the arrival of the Spanish in the 15th century, the nation's cuisine is primarily an amalgamation of the cuisines from later settler populations and neighboring regions. These influences include Western African slaves, British settlers and loyalists, the Southern United States, other Caribbean nations, and more.

Characteristics
As an island nation, the Bahamas widely incorporates seafood into its cuisine. This includes the popular mollusc called conch, as well as other fish and shellfish. Guava are native to the region, and other tropical and new-world fruits and vegetables can feature in the cuisine.

Common dishes
Many of the following dishes can be found in popular tourist and local places in the Bahamas:
 * Conch salad: a fresh salad with conch meat
 * Cracked conch: battered and fried conch pieces
 * Conch stew/soup: a tomato-based soup made with stewed conch meat and other vegetables
 * Grits: a dish of cooked cornmeal imported from the American South
 * Chicken in da bag: spiced and fried chicken

Cookbook:Matzo Meal

Matzo meal, sometimes spelled matzah meal, is a variety of breadcrumbs made by finely grinding matzah.

Characteristics
Matzo meal is typically very dry and fairly flavorless. There are two main types—standard matzo meal looks much like standard breadcrumbs, with a relatively coarse crumb, while matzo cake meal is much finer and closer to the consistency of flour.

Use
Matzo meal is used in a variety of applications, from breading to binder to a kosher-for-Passover flour substitute. It can also be used as a filler in casseroles or to make dumplings.

Assyrian Neo-Aramaic

Introduction
Assyrian Neo-Aramaic (or just Assyrian) is a language spoken mainly in the Middle East by the Assyrian people, a mainly Christian ethnic group. It is a dialect of Syriac, which itself is a dialect of Aramaic, where Hebrew comes from. There are 22 letters in the Assyrian alphabet. It has its own script, but I will show the Latin equivalents to make it a little bit easier. Each one will be listed here below, as follows:

Section 2: Greeting
This is a greeting conversation in Assyrian:

Note that if you say hello to a female, it would be "Šlāmā ʿlāḥ", to a male, it would be, "Šlāmā ʿlōḥ", and, to a whole group of people, you would say, "Šlāmā ʿlōḥōn".

Section 3: Word tones
In Assyrian, if you add "my" to a word, you would add an "ī" (sounds like ea in beat) at the end. But if something if you add "your", you would add "ōḥ"to it: These are examples:

Introduction
The foundation of the modern global economy is a simple metal box measuring 40 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 8.5 feet tall. Twenty Foot Equivalent Units,” the TEU, referring to the original baseline 20 foot container, is the basic unit of international trade flow statistics. A fleet of 5,500 ships with a consolidated capacity of 25 million TEUs carries 80 percent of all trade goods in the world. Moving freight in this manner first emerged in the 1950s, proved itself on a global scale on the back of Department of Defense contracts in the 1960s, and solidified as a fully integrated road, rail, and sea system in the 1970s. Containerization exploded in the 1990s and fundamentally altered the nature of the global economy. Companies throughout the world began sourcing materials and finished goods at much larger distances than in the past. Rather than redevelop busy traditional ports, terminals grew rapidly at new facilities built at then-smaller ports, like Savannah, or formerly commodity driven ports, like Los Angeles. As part of the endless desire for increased throughput in ever more congested ports, automation is frequently seen as an avenue to improved efficiency, longer working times, and reduced costs.

Compared with evolving or entirely new areas of technological innovation, like autonomous aerial systems, automation here is almost fully mature, widely deployed, and reaching the point of diminished areas of improvement. When the ECT Delta Terminal opened at Rotterdam in 1993, every aspect of the intra-port movement of containers was fully automated. Only the arrival at the terminal, either waterside or landside, was a manual process. Nearly 30 years later, there are almost 60 semi- or fully automated container terminals in the world. Just seven of these are in the US.

While there are other automation technologies available for other types of port operations, they tend to fall into two categories: shipboard systems that tend to be software driven systems to stabilize a tanker during the loading process or automated loading and unloading of bulk commodities, like automated discharge systems for coal or iron ore. Automation in container handling is a growing deployment of a variety of wholly new types of equipment in a largely labor-intensive process.

Additionally, these technologies fall into a different range than other emerging transportation technologies. They do not operate among the general public, being restricted to a constrained area that is occupied only by authorized vehicles and professional, skilled operators. As such, their safety regulation and safety thresholds are very different than a vehicle operating on the open road. The U.S. Maritime Administration has largely kept out of the regulatory arena and left matters up to the cities and states that operate the ports.

Despite the availability and deployment of automated systems, there is limited evidence that there are cost savings or efficiency improvements, particularly in terms of container handling. Role of a given port appears to be more relevant than the technologies involved.

Container Handling Technologies
Container handling is split into three phases: quayside, yard, and landside. There is some variation in how these are arranged, particularly yard operations, but these three operational areas form the basic pattern.

An inbound container is lifted off of the ship, loaded onto a horizontal vehicle. The horizontal vehicle moves the container to the storage yard, where lifting vehicles sort containers between different storage blocks consisting of dozens or hundreds of containers. Lifting vehicles then pull containers for the horizontal vehicles that move containers to landside road and rail terminals. Lift vehicles place containers on road chassis or on railcars for movement out of the port. The process is reversed for outbound shipments.

Horizontal vehicles and lifting vehicles are categories of different vehicles performing similar roles. These, together with the cranes, afford a variety of opportunities to introduce autonomous technologies.

Ship-to-Shore Quay Cranes
These are the very large cranes easily visible at any major container terminal in the world. They are typically 150 feet tall with a gantry reach of 130 feet and built in groups. Automating these machines has proven difficult. The ship itself is moving in multiple directions at once relative to the crane. Automated systems have not yet been able to match the skills that human operators bring to the process. There are no fully automated STS cranes anywhere in the world. Remotely piloted STS cranes, however, are common.

Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) & Automated Lifting Vehicles (ALVs)
AGVs/ALVs are basic wheeled vehicles designed to carry 2 20-foot containers or 1 40 or 45 foot container. They can be either diesel or battery powered. Navigation systems are variable, depending on customer preference and include embedded guide wires in the pavement, transponder-based reference grids, and satellite guidance. Despite the name, an ALV is considered a horizontal vehicle capable of lifting the container it carries into a storage rack. The only deployment of an AGV or ALV in the United States are the 50 Konecranes Gottwald AGVs at Long Beach. These AGVs use a transponder-based navigation, with a supplemental GPS-based geofenced safety system. Automated Straddle Carriers (Auto-SCs) & Automated Shuttle Carriers (AShC)

Auto-SCs and AShCs are rubber-tired gantry cranes. Like the ALVs, they are horizontal vehicles capable of lifting a container. They are similar machines, with the main difference being size. Auto-SCs are limited to stacking containers two high. AShCs can reach to four containers high. These machines place containers for larger cranes to stack in the storage blocks or to retrieve single containers pulled from the block for movement to the quayside or landside.

Two facilities in Los Angeles, TraPac and APMT, and Long Beach use the Kalmar Autostrad. Navigation can be either magnetic or a radar-based. The magnetic system registers positional data derived from magnets embedded in the pavement alongside an inertial measurement unit. Laser rangefinders assist with obstacle detection and avoidance. Other models can be equipped with a radar system, which navigates by pinging beacons on fixed locations (lighting masts, fence posts, etc.).

Automated Stacking Cranes (ASC)
The ASCs are much larger versions of the Auto-SCs and AShCs. ASCs come in two variants: Automated Rubber Tired Gantries (ARTGs) and Automated Rail Mounted Gantries (ARMGs). An ASC may span as many as 12 rows stacked 5 containers high. Maneuverability is limited because of their size and, as a result, only move forward and backwards on as many as 16 rubber tires or rails. These cranes receive containers from the horizontal vehicles to add to the storage blocks, sort containers in the blocks, and pull containers from storage blocks to transfer to horizontal vehicles.

All seven American automated terminals use ARMGs. For example, New York/New Jersey’s GCT Bayonne operates 20 Konecrane ARMGs to handle their truck terminal and the Port of Virginia has 116 ARMGs working at the Norfolk International and Virginia International Terminals

Horizontal Vehicles
Auto-SCs and AShCs can be used to load and unload containers that have arrived or departed via trucks. There are other types of vehicles that are used, such as large forklift-like reach stackers, but these are not automated.

Rail Gantries
These gantry cranes are the second only to the STS cranes in size. They are used to load containers onto trains and are themselves mounted on tracks running the full length of the railroad terminal. Shorter in height than similarly operating ARMGs, they are much wider to span numerous truck lanes, railroad tracks, and parking spots. Common deployments put them in teams to maximize the throughput in the rail terminal, with one gantry handling the unloading of an inbound train and another handling the loading of an outbond train.

These cranes are not automated, but remote operation is available. Terminals have been reluctant to explore automating these cranes. The process of loading and unloading railcars requires hands-on intervention to lock and unlock the mechanism that secures the containers to each other and to the railcar. Placing a human being between the railcar and an automated machine presents a safety issue that does not emerge in other phases of movement.

The gantries, due to their size and relatively small numbers, are custom built to the terminal’s layout. To compare, TraPac operates two rail gantries spanning eight railroad tracks, four road lanes, and a single row parking lot perpendicular to the tracks. The Mason ICTF gantries at Savannah cover nine tracks, two road lanes, and a single row parking lot perpendicular to the tracks.

Automated Gate Operations
Gate operations can be equipped with systems to automatically direct arriving trucks to the proper location for a pick-up or drop-off. Optical character recognition (OCR) or RFID systems identify an inbound truck or container. Lighted signs direct the driver to the appropriate unloading or loading spot without having to leave the truck or interact with any terminal personnel. Mis-scanned trucks are directed to humans for manual sorting. These scanners can also be deployed to track incoming railroad moves as well. Systems like these are commonly deployed at otherwise manual terminals too.

Positioning inside the loading bay is measured by lasers, indicating the exact position and orientation of the truck, allowing for accurate placement of the container on an empty trailer chassis or removing a container from the chassis by the ASC. This technology is ubiquitous and is even found in terminals where the horizontal vehicles are manually operated.

Lentis/The PFAS Controversy

Introduction
Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are used in many consumer goods, including electronics, personal care products, and kitchenware. They reduce friction and repel water, dirt and oil, making them desirable for industrial applications such as firefighting foams, medical devices, and pesticides. They also contain extremely stable carbon-fluorine bonds, making them incredibly persistent in the environment, with studies estimating PFAS lifetimes of over a thousand years. They concentrate within certain areas of the environment, with higher concentrations of PFAS being found in plants grown near contaminated water or soil, and bioaccumulate in the food chain, so that high level predators such as whales or bald eagles are exposed to a higher concentration of PFAS.

Recent studies have shown PFAS exposure in humans leads to kidney cancer, elevated cholesterol, decreased fertility, changes to the immune system, and development effects. The US Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) found that PFAS suppress antibodies in the immune system, leading to decreased vaccine response, especially in children. Animal testing has shown that short chain PFAS produce the same negative health effects as long chain PFAS; contrary to previous PFAS manufacturers' claims that short chain PFAS are safer. Short chain PFAS accumulate more easily than long chain PFAS, and are more mobile in the environment.

Due to concerns raised over the health and environmental risks associated with PFAS, many countries have tried to regulate their use in manufacturing. Current air and water filters are unable to capture PFAS released from industrial processes, and no methods exist to safety dispose of PFAS, as hazardous byproducts are released during disposal. Many countries have passed regulations to limit PFAS to "essential uses," which would incentivize the production of safer alternatives to PFAS, while the United States is currently banning PFAS use only in certain industries, such as paper production and firefighting foam. Both the European Commission and the United States' Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have set a limit on the PFAS concentration allowed in drinking water. However, the EPA does not regulate or provide recommended standards to monitor the use of PFAS in private wells, instead leaving the responsibility of determining their PFAS contamination to the public. This chapter will examine the social implications of unregulated PFAS content in drinking water in the US, and delve deeper into the health risks and corporate role of releasing PFAS into the environment.

3M & Mississippi River
3M is headquartered in Maplewood, Minnesota with a factory in the nearby town Cottage Grove, a small town in Washington County, Minnesota, that’s been in operation since 1947. 3M has a long history of developing PFAS dating back all the way to the 1950s, where they began to use the newly developed processes to manufacture various PFAS, including PFOA and PFOS. During this time, they launched several products based on PFAS, including Scotchgard. Due to the success of Scotchgard and other products, thousands of gallons of wet waste were produced. Some of the waste got into the Mississippi River while others went to nearby disposal sites. These sites were near water wells. From the dumping, pollution spread throughout the Mississippi River, nearby lakes, and four drinking aquifers, creating a 100 square mile underground plume.

For several years, Cottage Grove Myron Bailey had known about the contamination of the water, and in 2017 declared an emergency regarding the situation. Bailey created a plan to install filters in the town’s wells. He approached 3M for help, but the company refused and claimed they were not responsible for the chemicals in the water, citing a plastics fire from 15 years earlier and runoff from the firefighter foam used to extinguish it. Regarding 3M’s response, Cottage Grove’s fire chief Rick Redenius said, “The foam they were saying we used, we don’t carry.” The filters were later installed without the help of 3M.

In November 2017, Minnesota Attorney General Lori Swanson came forth with a case she had been building against 3M, claiming those in the Cottage Grove area are at higher risk of cancer, including childhood cancer, and lower fertility. Swanson demanded $5 billion plus damages to take care of the contamination. Initially, Minnesota’s health department issued a press release saying that the risks Swanson was mentioning should not be ignored, but that no “unusual differences” in cancer rates were found. Despite the claims of the health department, underlying data showed that from 1999 to 2013 Washington County had 28% more cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia than any other county in Minnesota. Breast cancer rates from 1988 to 2012 were also 7% higher. In addition, PFOA and PFOS contents ranged from 6 parts per trillion to 489 ppt, affecting over 150,000 residents. Death records show a child who died in Oakdale, the town in Washington County most affected by the contamination, was 171% more likely to have had cancer than a child outside the contaminated area.

On the eve of the trial, 3M settled for $850 million. They did not admit any wrongdoing. To date, it was the third largest natural-resource damage claim behind the Deepwater Horizon and Exxon Valdez oil spills. The settlement will help pay for water filters in the affected areas.

Since the settlement, Bailey says 3M has been more generous. He, however, wants more than their money and generosity going forward. The filters are only a temporary solution, and as more PFAS in the surrounding areas are discovered, the situation will only get worse. “To this day they have said they don’t believe anything is wrong,” he said. “If you are a business or individual who has done something wrong, I believe you can be accountable, and say you did it.”

NASA Wallops
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has had a facility at Wallops Island, Virginia since 1945. NASA Wallops operates both on the island and a separate main base on the eastern shore, both having runways, launchpads, and other supporting facilities. Fire containment exercises run at NASA Wallops' airstrips throughout the 70’s and 80’s used various fire retardants (AFFF) containing PFAS compounds. Crash sites in 1974 and 1998 also required such chemicals.

The EPA Health Advisory limit sparked a 2016 investigation discovering PFAS compounds in a variety of water sources. Concentrations of PFOS (a subcategory of PFAS), was measured in groundwater at 24,000ng/L, and in four out of seven drinking wells for the Town of Chincoteague with concentrations as high as 610 ng/L. An affected well is located within an easement on Wallops main base property. NASA's 2019 published preliminary assessment, lists ten suspected contamination sources of PFAS chemicals with seven of them related to the use of AFFF. Records show that for around 30 years, its likely residents of Chincoteague had been exposed between 5-10 times the federal recommendation.

Distrust grew between affected individuals and NASA Wallops and the Chincoteague Town Council. The American Federation of Government Employees Local Union in 2017 requested an epidemiological study and biomonitoring of residents to gauge the impact PFAS had on locals. This request was denied due to a lack of PFAS contamination in surrounding wells. Richard Hooks, a NASA employee, is among the union members who sent a whistleblower letter about the contamination. "The town and NASA have not really been honest with people that there's a possibility they've been exposed to these chemicals" said Hooks. NASA Union members were denied participation in meetings that discussed the contamination. When the Accomack County Board of Supervisors was informed of the PFAS levels, Supervisor Chesser asked if residents would be notified of findings and was met with "That's a NASA question". When pressing further, Chesser mentioned that "It would be a courtesy to the people around there to give them a heads up".

A plan was put in place to pump in excess drinking water for the town as NASA Wallops cleans the wells. A carbon treatment system installed by NASA allowed for Chincoteague to resume well usage in 2021. Construction on a new pipeline and well from Wallops main base to Chincoteague began in early 2022.

Access to public information is a problem to the PFAS crisis in Chincoteague. While possibly not the only public outreach event, the most recent was in August of 2022 to discuss their wastewater treatment plant. In 2018, the Chincoteague drinking water quality report failed to inform residences about PFAS contamination despite being aware. The current 2021 report mentions PFAS however does not mention current contaminant levels. Links were provided to NASA Wallops page where users have to search through arduous PDFs to find data. The use of complicated jargon in reports published by Wallops makes information difficult to understand. In their 207 page publication NASA uses over 60 acronyms, many of which are similar. Their website is similar with lots of information however not user friendly. First-hand information published by NASA Wallops or the town of Chincoteague relating to the contaminated wells is also difficult to find online. Broken links to PDF files containing further information are riddled across older news sources. For those without internet access, this may be even more difficult. 37% of the residents of Chincoteague are 65 or older, putting them at a disadvantage of finding information as they prefer traditional mass media.

Conclusion
Due to their extremely stable carbon-fluorine bonds, PFAS pose a significant threat to humans and to the environment. Both short and long chain PFAS are incredibly persistent and environmentally mobile, and can lead to cancer and suppressed immune system response in humans, especially children. Case studies involving 3M and NASA Wallops prove that PFAS are simply not just a future threat, they have been impacting real people for decades.

Future additions to this casebook chapter could include a more detailed study of the laws governing PFAS exposure in the US, especially as this legislation continues to develop. The perspectives of legislators and companies currently using PFAS in production, any new scientific research found about the dangers of PFAS, or more case studies of communities impacted by PFAS would also be welcome and appreciated.

The dash diet is mainly based on fruits, Vegetables, low–fat or fat-free dairy, whole grains, fish, poultry, and nuts. It recommends reducing sodium intake, sweets, and red meat. It limits saturated and trans-saturated fat. In diet potassium, magnesium, protein, fiber, and nutrients are thought to help control blood pressure. Following this diet requires some planning and cooking. To ease this, list of healthy recipes. There is some conflicting data about the need for, low–fat foods.

Some people may at first experience gas and bloating due to the high fiber content of plant foods such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. This can be partially alleviated by limiting high-fiber foods intake to 1 or 2 per week progressively increasing. This may also be substituting high protein sources or fiber, with high carbohydrate sources or fiber, like whole grains. Dash in addition to a reduction of sodium intake is associated with a reduction of blood pressure in both individuals with and without hypertension.

What is the dash diet?

The Dash Diet is a weight loss plan. Mosley combines three distinct phases of eating from the Standard American Diet with a healthy dash of behavioral changes to prevent overheating and overload. It is a crash diet where you eat nothing but water for a few days, eating only certain foods for a certain period of time.

The Dash Diet consists of four phases:

Restrict calories for 1-2 weeks, move your body through fat-burning metabolic cycles, crave the foods that you need to succeed at losing weight again, and lastly have pleasure from food again by eating in moderation and enjoying the rest of your life.

Why is the dash diet beneficial?

The Dash Diet is designed to help you lose weight by reducing carbohydrates, and replacing them with protein and moderate fats. Its approach to dieting is simple: eating a balanced diet of whole foods will provide optimal nutrition to rule out any potential side effects while eating less and exercising more than you normally do will allow your body to automatically regulate weight instead of making health decisions for you.

How can you follow the dash diet?

The DASH is a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy, and that includes lean meats, fish, and poultry. The DASH diet is designed to lower blood pressure, and it has been shown to be effective in reducing blood pressure in people with hypertension. The DASH diet is also generally healthy and can help promote weight loss and prevent chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. You should eat a variety of DASH-friendly foods and limit your intake of salt, saturated fat, and added sugars.

What are some potential drawbacks of the dash diet?

The Dash Diet is a diet that promises users to lose weight quickly and easily, without any struggle. It is said to be scientifically proven so it really works for everyone! The Dash Diet does claim to be a healthy diet because it focuses on fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

However, there are some drawbacks of the dash diet, such as high calories, processed foods and fat consumption. Another potential downfall of the Dash Diet is that it's very expensive compared to other diets as they're not reimbursed by insurance companies, so if you don't have insurance coverage you may end up paying out-of-pocket for this diet plan.

Dash diet provides a sample plan with a number of servings based on 1600, 2000, calories per day. Here is the sample plan for 2000 calories daily.

Listing this dash diet.

1:- Servings of grains. 2:- Servings of fruits 3:- Servings of vegetables 4:- Servings of low-fat dairy foods 5:- Servings of fats and oils 6:- Servings Meat, poultry, or fish.

'''Diet Foods List

The ketogenic diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet. It’s called “keto” because it makes the body produce ketones in the liver, which are then used for energy. This process produces fewer free radicals and reduces inflammation. Keto foods:

Meat, eggs, fish, shellfish poultry (chicken and turkey), bacon, sausage, ham (pork), beef jerky, sticks, bacon bits. Non-starchy vegetables:

salad greens (lettuce and spinach), asparagus, broccoli, and cauliflower. Non-starchy fruits: berries (strawberries and raspberries) Nuts and seeds: almonds, walnuts

Conclusion The dash diet is a healthy way to eat that has many benefits. It is recommended for people with heart disease, hypertension and diabetes because it lowers blood pressure and cholesterol levels. The Dash diet is also effective in lowering body weight and fat while increasing lean muscle mass. Since a balanced Dash meal plan includes most of the nutrients found in real foods, it’s easy. The DASH-Sodium study was systolic blood pressure. The secondary outcome was diastolic blood pressure. The DASH-Sodium study found that reductions in sodium intake produced significantly lower systolic blood pressures in both the control and DASH diets. The control diet of sodium blood pressure. The control diet of sodium intake produced significantly.

The DASH diet control diet at the lower salt levels was successful in lowering blood pressure, but the largest reductions in blood pressure obtained by eating a combination of these two (Lower version of the DASH diet). The effect of this combination at a sodium level of 1,500 mg/day was average blood pressure. DASH-sodium results indicate that low sodium levels correlated with the largest reductions in blood pressure for participants at hypertensive levels, with the hypertensive participants showing the greatest reductions in blood pressure overall..
