A LIDEX scrap shear has just been started up at the GALLOO Group site in the Ardennes.

The machine is installed in GALLOO’s subsidiary in Hirson, bought by the Group in 2006, and which then moved to a new site in the same city in 2009. The team, managed by Benoit Hincelin, has developed the activity from 1,000 to 3,000 tons processed per month.

The old 800-ton shear was worn out and insufficient for those new production needs. It therefore was decided to invest in a new stationary scrap shear with the objective of processing 150 tons a day.

After investigating the market of European manufacturers, the GALLOO Group finally opted for LIDEX of 1,000 tones from COPEX, with a cutting width of 1,000 mm, a compression box of 8×2 m, and hydraulics of 4×110 kW.

This first order will soon be supplemented by a second LIDEX unit, almost identical to the one that has just been put into production, and will be installed in the autumn in Dunkirk.

John Hattie’s 10th Mindframe for Learning

This post was originally published on Finding Common Ground.

We all teach, lead, and learn under different Mindframes. They envelope our personal lives as well as into our professional conversations. John Hattie, someone I have worked with for the last year and a half as a Visible Learning trainer, has written extensively about the nine Mindframes our students need for learning (click here for his guest blog when there were 7). Those Mindframes are equally as important for teachers and school leaders as well.

Last week, as some of us presented with Hattie on his jam-packed presentation tour across the U.S., he announced a 10th mindframe, which is easy to discuss but less easy to put into practice. First and foremost, Hattie believes that in order to maximize learning we need to make sure that we embody the following 9 mindframes:

  • I am an evaluator-Evaluation isn’t just about the formal evaluation that comes down from the state education department and district offices. As educators we all have to evaluate whether our practices are bringing out the best learning in our students. After all, in Hattie’s words we have to “Know Thy Impact.”
  • I am a change agent– In these days of more accountability and more on the plates of teachers and leaders, it’s easy to feel as though we are victims to our present educational situations. Hattie believes we have to change our mindsets to understanding we are change agents. This is important, because research shows that when teachers have a low level of efficacy they feel as though they don’t have any impact on student learning, which doesn’t put them in the role of change agent at all. It’s important for leaders to establish a school climate that fosters an increased sense of teacher efficacy, so that they can build collective teacher efficacy as a staff, and help teachers realize they may be one of the only change agents in a child’s life.
  • I talk about learning and not about teaching– When we talk about teaching we are focusing on the adult in the room and very often forget about the students. The adult is important, but focusing on the student is more important. In the Politics of Distraction, Hattie wrote that school stakeholders, policymakers and politicians talk a great deal about the adult issues in school, such as unions, prep time and teacher evaluation, but not enough time discussing learning.
  • I see assessment as feedback to me– Ward et al wrote that schools are awash with data but very often the data that we all have access to is not used at the depth that it could be because data has been used as a “gotcha” instead of a tool that could lead to deeper conversations. What sort of formative assessment (click here for this guest blog by Shirley Clarke) are we doing to make sure that what we are doing in the classroom is actually working?
  • I engage in dialogue and not monologue– In these days of 24/7 communication tools I wonder if we really listen to one another any better than we did before we had access to those tools? Do we engage in dialogue where we listen to the thoughts of the person on the other side of the conversation, or do we use the conversation to merely get our own self-interests across? In the classroom with students, do teachers listen to students or just lecture and talk at students without giving them enough time to debate and discuss?
  • I enjoy challenge– Hattie believes we spend too much time giving students answers to questions that they struggle with in the classroom; instead of taking the opportunity to teach them that error is the best way to learn. It’s through error that they dig deep within themselves. This will work better, if at a young age, we teach students that learning is not always easy, which is one of the greatest parts of it.
  • I engage in positive relationships– In Hattie’s work he has shown that teacher-student relationships have an effect size of .72 which is nearly double the hinge point (.40) he found through his research that offers a year’s worth of growth for a year’s input. Positive relationships, whether through teacher-student relationships, or the relationships students have with peers, can have an enormous benefit.
  • I use the language of learning– The focus on learning is important, which is why we need to talk about it more than we talk about teaching. However, having common language around learning is the crucial next step. Schools that focus on learner dispositions and teach students how and when to use them can help change the mindset of school stakeholders.
  • I see learning as hard work– All of the above Mindframes come together in this mindframe. Engaging in dialogue, diving deeply into assessment data, teaching students about learning dispositions, and becoming change agents is no easy task, which is why learning is hard work.

The 10th mindframe that Hattie released last week is:

I Collaborate – Hattie not only has 10 mindframes but within his research he found 150 influences on learning, which continues to grow. I collaborate is crucial to the influence that is near the top spot, which is collective teacher efficacy. We, as adults, teach students about the importance of collaboration, and team sports have hopefully been focusing on that issue as well. Unfortunately, adults still don’t collaborate as grade levels and departments nearly as often as they should. It happens in pockets, but not always across schools.

In the End

The Mindframes of learning are important, and I’m not just saying that because I am a Visible Learning trainer and work with John Hattie. Adults go to counselors and invest a great deal of time and energy into practices that will help them shift their Mindframes at home. We need to do the same for our Mindframes that we carry to work with us every day.

Collaboration, which brings together diverse thinkers who engage in authentic conversation, can help shift our thinking which inspires us to grow as learners. It’s why Twitter is so popular with educators because they find professional and personal learning networks which help them think outside the box. Imagine how much better it would be if we didn’t always have to go to social networking for that and could find it within our own buildings as well.

Try These Helpful Tips for Aging Gracefully￼

seniors exercising
Image via GoDaddy

People are living longer today, and there are good reasons why. Many attribute it to having good genes. But more research shows a positive outlook and a sense of purpose make a big difference, too.

Experts in integrative medicine who counsel patients on the relationship between mental and physical health offer the following key tips for aging more gracefully:

  1. Make the most of each day by living in the moment
  2. Forgive yourself and others, and don’t dwell on the past
  3. Have a sense of humor, and don’t take yourself too seriously
  4. Stay curious, keep learning new things
  5. Focus on being flexible in both your mind and body
  6. Practice some form of meditation, be it prayer, gardening, or other pastimes
  7. Find a reason to be grateful each day and express your gratitude

Integrative physicians know that by embracing these principles seniors can build a better sense of purpose and find more reasons for living while enjoying better health. A good frame of mind also will help maintain positive, fulfilling relationships with others. You’re never too old to shape a rewarding life.

Be Mindful and Live for Today

As the old saying goes, “Age is only a number.” By doing simple things like being mindful, living in the present moment, and appreciating each and every day to the fullest, you can approach aging with an attitude of gratitude as opposed to dwelling on the passage of time. And by staying active, healthy, and fit, you might not be able to literally turn back the hands of time, but you can at least feel years younger than you actually are!

Whether you’re newly diagnosed with PTSD or have been living with it for some time, its physical effects can be confusing. People often assume that PTSD and other anxiety issues are “only in the head.” But PTSD and other anxiety disorders affect the entire person.

The brain and body create a feedback loop with each other. What happens in one gives feedback to the other. Automatic reactions—whether physical, cognitive, or emotional—happen simultaneously as a result of this cycle.

Fortunately, understanding the way PTSD’s physical effects work in your body can give you important insight into managing it.

On High Alert

Many of PTSD’s physical effects are a direct result of how PTSD makes you feel like you always have to be on high alert. This happens subconsciously, without you even having to think about it. This tendency can also be referred to as hypervigilance.

Why This Happens

Your body is primed to remain on high alert because of how your parasympathetic nervous system responds to fear and threats. This system causes the fight-or-flight reaction, which all humans have as a resource to protect themselves.

Unfortunately, trauma can cause people to get trapped in this fight-or-flight state. It’s a physical state where your body sends out hormones to make you ready to respond.

As a result of these hormones, your breathing becomes faster, blood rushes to your heart, and your muscles tense. You feel fear. Experiencing trauma makes it very difficult for most people to release the fear and return to equilibrium.

The Feedback Loop

As mentioned above, your body and brain are an interconnected system. When you experience something that makes you feel anxious, such as a reminder of your trauma, your brain sends the message to your body to prepare.

Likewise, you might feel short of breath after a workout, but your brain automatically interprets this as a sign of anxiety and creates emotions to go along with it.

What This Looks Like

Physical effects of PTSD often include the following symptoms, due to the physiological reactions in your body described above.

Muscle Aches

Our muscles aren’t designed to be tense and ready to spring to action constantly. They need a chance to relax. But when your mind thinks you need to be on constant alert, your body doesn’t have a chance to relax. This leads to all kinds of muscle aches and headaches.

Many people with anxiety disorders struggle with insomnia. When your brain is constantly alert and feels threatened, it’s naturally going to have a hard time letting you sleep.

Gastrointestinal Issues

The physiological symptoms of PTSD also include stomach upset, digestive issues, and changes in appetite. This is because the hormones in the fight-or-flight reaction divert energy and blood away from the G.I. system. They want these important resources to go toward a quick response to threat.

Being on constant alert is exhausting. Of course, insomnia can contribute to this. But when your body is always tense and your heart rate elevated, you’ll experience even more fatigue.

Emotional Effects

It’s impossible to talk about the physical effects of PTSD without mentioning the emotional effects. They feed into each other, after all. Unfortunately, fatigue, hypervigilance, and anxiety can cause you to withdraw from loved ones. They can distort your thinking and your perception of yourself.

As this happens, the physical effects can respond with even stronger reactions.

Getting Help

Despite the power PTSD has on your mind and body, it’s important for you to know that it’s entirely possible to find healing.

Therapy for PTSD can help you uncover your unconscious physical reactions that lead to symptoms. It can also help you reframe your thoughts and emotional reactions.

I am unsure what language single men speak these days; however, I was recently mystified once again.  A budding friendship had begun and things were light, fun and banter was at an all time high, even the tires had been more than kicked, so things were on an open-minded, even road…  But, despite the embryonic stages of learning who the hell this person is – I was stumped.  During what appeared to be another great evening I get hit with “I am not ready for a committed relationship.” This would be cool had I asked for one… it may have

Frame made with 2 by 4

Sharing helps others too!

Do you have pieces of 2 by 4 wood hanging around the garage?  Here’s a fun project that adds rustic decor.  A frame made with 2 by 4 wood. Old Farm Picture in 2 by 4 frame | Country Design Style |

Frame made with 2 by 4 boards leftover from the garden bench.

Warning, I might have a tear fall on my computer while writing this.

Most will be tears of endearment. 🙂

My final goal is to share with you how to make a picture frame made with 2 by 4 boards.

Frame made with 2 by 4

Old farmhouse painting in old frame | Country Design Style |

This is an oil painting of my grandparent’s farmhouse.  It was painted from a photo I took at 13 years old by a friend of my mom.  Mom has two paintings.  One of the farmhouse at a different angle and one of the old barn.  My grandparents were moving to town and leaving the old farm in “the Osage.”  My grandpa was ill and farming was becoming too hard.  At 13 years old, I knew I wanted pictures around the old farm.  I cherish each of those pictures…

but that frame!

It’s been painted every color from white to almost black.  Right now is a reddish brown.  Then the other day it hit me why I didn’t like the frame and was always changing the color.  The frame at any color does go with the details of the painting.  The frame is busy with details making everything too busy.

Old farmhouse painting | Country Design Style |

Usually, when I want to display the painting or take a photo for the website, I remove the frame.  The painting needs a simple frame.  A farmhouse frame.

This 4 room farmhouse was basic.  A wooden house with boards for trim around the windows and doors.  The front and back porch pillars were boards.  A bathroom was added in the early 60’s.  Inside there were smells of homemade bread, sounds of laughter, sights of basic farmhouse decorations, tastes of peach cobbler, and feelings of love and family.

My grandpa walked every inch of the 365 areas and walked into my heart.  He only lived two years in town.  Today, Groundhog day is the anniversary of his funeral.  An emotional day for me still.

But let’s set that aside and talk about making a frame with 2 by4 boards for any special picture.

Note: if you’re not into woodworking and just want to see the finished project scroll on down the page.

Here’s the list of supplies and tools to fit a 16 by 20 frame

1) 2 by 4 by 8′ plus a board around 28″
Router with 1/4″ rabbeting bit
Miter saw or box
Measuring tape
Wood glue
Dowel pins
Dowel pin markers
Drill and bit the size of your dowel pins

The Steps

Frame made from 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

Clamp the boards to your workbench and router along one edge.  This is the back edge the picture fits into.  You will use more wood for the frame, but it’s easier.  Since I have plenty of leftover wood from the garden bench, I chose easy.  If you wanted a more detailed frame, you could use different router bits along the other edges.

Frame made with 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

Cut the boards to size.  The measurement is from the routered indents.

Picture Frame Made with 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

Lay the board for the frame.  Notice 3 boards were cut from a rough-sided board and one from a smooth board.  Happens when you’re making projects from leftover wood.  I’ll work it out with paint.

laying out frame made with 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

Next, assemble the frame using an angle to mark along the 45-degree cuts.

How to make a frame using 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

Following the angle of the line drawn drill a hole slightly deeper than half the length of the dowel pin into the center of one end of each board.  I like to use paddle bits.  I’m more accurate using the point.

Rabbet bit | Country Design Style |

To easily find the spot for the connecting board, use dowel pin markers.  Select the correct size of the marker and insert into the hole.  Line up the frame pieces with the pencil line drawn above and tap the boards together.  This leaves a mark where you drill the other hole.  Pretty cool huh?  Above it, the rabbeting bit I used and I keep dowel pins in a mason jar with the dowel markers in a little zip bag and add to the jar.

Now add wood glue into the holes and along the angle.  Tap in the dowel pins and tap the boards together.  Use clamps to hold board firm until the glue dries.

You’re ready to paint.

Old paint technique on frame made with 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

Remember that board that was too smooth?  I dry brushed all the boards using white, soft green and gray chalk paints.  On all the boards I left clumps of thick paint like above.  Especially on that smooth board.

Finish on frame made with 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

Then I hand rubbed a homemade oil clear matte finish which darkened the wood peeking out from the dry brushed areas.  You can see the difference above.  My homemade finish is 1 part clear matte oil and 1 part mineral spirits.

inspired paint technique for frame made with 2 by 4 | Country Design Style |

An old spindle was my inspiration for this paint technique.

Old Farm Picture in 2 by 4 frame | Country Design Style |

Since this picture is an oil painting on stretched canvas, I used mirror clips to hold the painting in the frame.  This would work with glass too.  Hanging wire was used to hang.

Frame made with 2 by 4 Pin | Country Design Style |

I think my special painting has finally found a frame.

Now I’ll wipe the teardrops from my computer and enjoy some sweet memories.

      Hi Jeanette, I watched your video about the dowel pin markers. That is great advice. Thanks for sharing. How do you guarantee that you are drilling at the correct angle? Thanks

    2. Colleen Suchiu says

      I love your story because this art is a memory for you and your family will also grow up with this treasure in your home.

      I am a professional picture framer (25 years) and family history is a passion of mine. I am honored when people bring me their family heirlooms to frame so we can continue someones legacy and make them into a memory for future generations.

      Your framing was wonderful, I loved the rustic wood on your piece and because this is an original oil and the wood frame only touches the edges of your art this is fine. Show us more ideas for your frames! I helped someone use a barn window from their families old barn to put generations of wedding pictures in them.

      If anyone is thinking of framing valuables and anything paper you must use the right materials to keep them in an acid free surrounding to preserve them properly and never put your photos right against glass or they will become damaged. This is where a trusted framer is needed who has the experience in this area. Because of my love for preservation, It worries me when I hear of people framing their valuable art and treasures themselves. This is really a special skill that should be done by a professional if you want your items to last.

      Thanks Jeanette for your creative ideas. You make life fun and certainly inspiring! I love reading your posts.

      P.S. If you have any questions in the framing area, it would be my pleasure to help answer or give suggestions.

Boo! See Country Stars in Their 2022 Halloween Costumes

Trick or treat! The stars turned out in style for Halloween this year, and they’ve got the pictures to prove it.

Lots of country artists rocked couples costumes or themed family looks for the holiday, like Tyler Hubbard and his wife and kids, who rocked matching Peter Pan-themed outfits, complete with Hubbard as Captain Hook and his wife Hayley as Tinkerbell. Kane Brown and his wife Katelyn wore matching skeleton costumes, but it was their two daughters Kingsley and Kodi who stole the show as a cat and mouse, respectively.

Miranda Lambert and Brendan McLoughlin have set the couples costume bar high every year since they got married, and their 2022 Halloween looks didn’t disappoint: They went as a Morticia and Gomez from the Addams Family, even roping their dogs into the family costume fun.

Meanwhile, other stars decided to dress up as pop culture figures or characters from movies. Jason Aldean and his wife Brittany went for an elaborate Anchorman look complete with a “news segment” starring Aldean as Ron Burgundy and Brittany as his co-broadcaster Veronica Corningstone. Meanwhile, Kelsea Ballerini threw it back to 2004 with her costume, dressing up as Jennifer Coolidge’s character in A Cinderella Story. Maren Morris dressed up as Judy from The Righteous Gemstones, and her pals dressed up as other characters from the show.

Brian Kelley kept in in the country music family for his Halloween look: He dressed up as Alan Jackson circa 1992, from the “Chattahoochee” music video.

Were you twinning with any country stars’ costumes this Halloween? Keep scrolling to see all the epic costume looks!

Angular with Test Driven Development Udemy coupons

Angular with Test Driven Development

Learn Angular by applying test driven development (incl. routing, forms, karma, jasmine, jest, testing-library)

Created by Basar Buyukkahraman | 14 hours on-demand video course

Angular is one of the most popular library for the client application development. In this course we will be learning angular by creating a web application with it. Also we will apply test driven development (TDD) methodology from beginning to the end. We will have two separate test setups. One of them is coming with the default angular project. Testing with karma and jasmine. And the other one is, we will create custom setup with the most popular test libraries of javascript. jest and testing-library

This course is purely built on practice. Each code piece we write, will be for our actual application implementation. In each section we will gradually build our application. We will not jump ahead and add functionality not needed for that moment. We will implement one requirement at a time. Each implementation will bring the next requirement to us. And following this practice, will help you to get a solid foundation about overall web application requirements and how to implement one of them with angular by following test driven development methodology. After completing the course, you will be able to use Angular in your next project and you will experience the benefits of test driven development.

What you’ll learn

  • Build an application with Angular
  • Practice Test Driven Development in a complete project from beginning to the end
  • How to mock external dependencies in testing
  • Feel how the test driven development is giving confidence when refactoring your application
  • Not only learn karma & jasmine but also learn jest and testing-library

Lesson 1: Fundamentals of Monitoring with Boot

1. Module 8 Overview

This module is all about monitoring your API and tracking good, useful metrics from the start.

It's also a Spring Boot heavy lesson - mainly because the framework makes the Ops story a lot better and saves us time and effort in having to implement this low level support ourselves. And while this isn't a Spring Boot focused module, we do want to use the best tool for the job.

2. Goals

Learn how Spring Boot makes monitoring and tracking the metrics of a Spring API very easy.

3. Lesson Notes

The relevant module you need to import when you're starting with this lesson is: m8-lesson1-start
If you want to skip and see the complete implementation, feel free to jump ahead and import: m8-lesson1

We are going to use Spring Boot actuators to start tracking metrics and expose these via several endpoints:

  • /info
  • /health
  • /metrics

We are also going to configure these endpoints via application.properties:

- "endpoints.{endpointname}.{option}" - with the following options:

  • id
  • sensitive
  • enabled

- ex: endpoints.health.sensitive=false

The metrics endpoint is not enabled by default, so we need to add the property:

- other endpoint related options can be configured as well:
management.context-path = actuators
management.port = 8081

/info endpoint configuration

info.app.name = My App
info.build.version = @[email protected]

Note how we are using the @@ syntax here to get the value of the property from the pom of the parent (after maven runs package)

URLs for a local deployment

Note that the assumption here is that the deployment happens via Spring Boot (where the port is already configured to 8081 and the app will be deployed at the root). If deployment happens in a standard Tomcat server, then these URLs will be slightly different.

3.1. Upgrade Notes

With respect to Spring Boot 1, the actuators in Spring Boot 2 have undergone important changes and some of them are breaking. For example, Spring Boot 2 uses prefix management.* for the names of application properties that configure the actuators' endpoints. Similarly, the management.context-path property is now management.endpoints.web.base-path.

Additionally, the actuator endpoints are now located beneath the /actuator base path by default, so for example, if we don't provide the management.endpoints.web.base-path property in our application, our info endpoint will be located in /api/actuator/info.

Then, most actuators' endpoints by default are enabled but not exposed via the web. In order to be able to use an endpoint via the web, we should first enable it (which is the default for all endpoints except for shutdown) and make sure that it is exposed:

In addition, access to the actuators' endpoints is now integrated into the Spring Security. It means that we can now configure the access to them using the Spring Security of our application. For more details, check the links in the resource section.

Particularly for the /metrics endpoint, you'll notice it now returns just a list of metric names. Each of these can be further queried by browsing /metrics/{metric.name}. So, for example, in order to access HTTP Request metrics similar to the ones we explore in the video, we should send a request to the /metric/http.server.requests endpoint.

Case Growth & Vaccine Development Update

In previous notes we mentioned the possibility of a “Second Wave” of cases popping up as activity resumes and social distancing measures are relaxed. In the last week cases have begun to rise across the nation, particularly in states that until recently have not seen a huge case load from the virus. The increase itself was to be expected but the severity of new case growth is still alarming. On June 26th the United States reported a new record in daily COVID-19 cases, most of which came from southern and western states. The encouraging sign from recent data is that so far daily deaths have not kept up with the pace of new cases. This implies that treatments are improving dramatically and testing remains robust. Keep in mind new deaths tend to lag cases so we remain hopeful that the fatality rate continues to fall.

Also encouraging is that households have remained very resilient even with very weak macroeconomic/employment data. The majority of consumers (77%) continue to think their own finances will get better or stay the same over the next six months. A lot of this is most likely due to fiscal and monetary assistance which has been very supportive, but a second round of stimulus aide may need to be enacted after current ones run out.

A vaccine is still being touted as the cure for the COVID pandemic but the further along we get and the more people that get infected, herd immunity may take hold before a vaccine is finished. And although we don’t doubt the innovation abilities of large drug makers, we think expectations for a vaccine before the end of the year need to be hampered. Vaccines are being developed by companies all around the world with several already in the clinical trial phase which is very fast compared to typical timelines. But even with this fast tracked timeline, a vaccine before the end of the year would be very ambitious and the drug’s safety, effectiveness, and timeliness are not guaranteed.

We continue to monitor these developments and will keep you updated as new information becomes available. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or would like to discuss these matters further.

School Site Council General Information

School Site Meetings

The Council meets on bi-monthly basis, typically on the last Thursday of the month in the Staff Lounge from 3:15 PM.- 4:15 P.M. Please consult the school calendar for specific times and locations. All meetings are open to the public and participation is welcomed and appreciated. The Site Council reserves time for public comment at the end of each meeting. In consideration of the noticed agenda and time, public comments are recorded at the meeting and addressed by the Council at the following month's meeting.

Role of the School Site Council

The School Site Council (the Council) serves as the governing board of the Chalone Peaks Middle School (the “School”), which determines the focus of the School’s academic instructional programs and all related categorical resources. The Council is made up of teachers, parents, and other school personnel who work with the Principal to develop, review and evaluate school improvement programs, the School budget as well as school safety.

All members of the Council with the exception of the Principal, serve for a term of two years. Parent members of the Council are elected by the parents in the school community; teacher members of the Council are elected by their peers. Council members have an obligation to make decisions that best serve the school community.

Responsibilities of the School Site Council

Every year, the Council analyzes and evaluates the academic achievement of all students in the School. After reviewing the School’s academic performance and looking at the big picture of the School’s progress, the Council and the Principal create the School Plan. This plan, once developed, is submitted by the school to the district for approval.

This school Plan may include a new academic program or a staff member or parent outreach strategy. As the School budget is limited and many funds can only be spent under strict guidelines, the decisions are made taking into consideration the best overall interest of our school and students.

Over the course of a year, the Council works with the Principal to evaluate the school’s progress towards the goals included in the School Plan. To monitor performance, individuals who are responsible for programs in the School Plan are invited to make a presentation to the Council during its scheduled meetings. During these presentations, the Council seeks to understand the nature of the program, success to date, and opportunities for improvement.

Some Sample Topics Discussed at School Site Council Meetings

  • What are the academic goals and priorities of the school?

  • What data can be reviewed to ascertain whether the school is achieving the established goals?

  • Is the school achieving the goals that have been established?

  • Are there particular groups of students who are not doing as well as others?

  • What programs should be implemented to help students that are not meeting expectations?

  • How are these programs funded?

  • Are there certain programs that are not effective or do not support the academic goals?

  • How are programs measured for effectiveness?

What are the priorities for the site and how can we best support the implementation strategies for the priorities?

20 October 2022
We get many questions about how to get the most out of your NDIS. There’s always a desire to get more. Many of our members are nervous about tackling the NDIS and worry that they won’t get enough (or any) funding – but you shouldn’t be!

This month, CPSN sat down with our Support Coordinator, Brian, to discuss how our members can get the most out of their NDIS Plan. This article is a must-read for new NDIS participants and anyone with a review around the corner!

Tip #1 – Know your Price Catalogue

The NDIS Price Catalogue isn’t used nearly enough by NDIS participants. Most people don’t know that it’s out there. Brian explains that this guide offers a list of hundreds of services a person might be eligible to receive on their plan, including line items, costs, and support categories.

So how does this benefit you? It can provide a helpful guide to accessing therapies or consumables. Various treatments available under the NDIS go beyond physiotherapy and occupational therapy. Some examples of therapies include early childhood services, podiatry, psychology, exercise physiology and dieticians.

The Price Catalogue can also provide a guide for stretching your budget; for example, we recently hosted a webinar exploring the benefits of therapy assistants. Therapy assistants can be a more affordable alternative to physiotherapy and estimates of their costs can be found in the guide.

NDIS reviews can be stressful, but they present an excellent opportunity to maximise your funding and improve your support. This is a crucial time to sit down and look at the guide to find out what you’re entitled to receive.

You can learn more about the NDIS Support Catalogue here

Tip #2 – Don’t be afraid to be a squeaky wheel

Getting the most out of your plan requires persistence, so you must know when to make some noise.

During developing a new plan, it’s a good idea to stay connected with your Local Area Coordinator (LAC) and voice any concerns you have throughout the application or review process.

If you’re unhappy with the outcome of the Plan meeting, there are several avenues that you can go down.

You can provide formal feedback to feedback@ndis.gov.au. If you’re unhappy with the outcome of a decision handed down by the NDIA, you can call 1800 800 110. Brian explains, “If you’re still unhappy with the outcome, call 11800 800 110 AGAIN!  Persistence is the key.”

Tip #3 – Know what your ‘live plan’ looks like

Keeping track of how much funding you are spending and where the money is going is another critical step in ensuring you get the most out of your plan.

If you use a plan manager, you can view a live version of your plan through an online portal. This portal will provide a breakdown of how much of your funding you have used and will also hold copies of all your invoices and other vital information, like the persons who are authorised to receive payments.

Alternatively, you can access your NDIS information on the NDIS portal.

So, why does this matter? Looking at a live version of your plan is like keeping a bank app – it enables you to track what you’re spending and what you can spend before the end of the plan. Using your funding is essential because if you don’t, you might lose access to funds when it is time for a review.

Tip #4 – This is an "insurance company"

Although it isn’t profit-driven the way a traditional insurance company is, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) must be able to calculate risk and weigh up costs the way any insurance company does.

“If you want to get approved for something, you need to provide evidence that’s in your well-being to have it,” says Brian.

Consider what you are trying to add to your plan and how it mitigates risk and enhances your quality of life and safety. An example might be getting a new walking stick that provides more physical support, thus reducing your risk of falls.

Tip #5 – Stick to your goals and stay connected with your team

It is easy to get caught up in the financial aspects, but ultimately the NDIS is designed to help people with disabilities achieve their goals. Any time you establish a new plan, you will have a list of goals you aim to achieve.

Now, ask yourself, ‘Who do I need on my team to achieve that goal?’

For example, one of your goals might be to improve your health and lose weight. So, it might be helpful to include a dietician and exercise physiologist in your next plan.

Find out how much this might cost using your Price Catalogue and start a conversation with your support coordinator or LAC to get your goal moving.

Hopefully, these tips can help guide you. If you’re seeking more information, contact cpsn@cpsn.org.au or call 03 9478 1001

AM: Strength continues

By Jani Ziedins | Intraday Analysis

Apr 25
S&P500 daily at 12:58 EDT

S&P500 daily at 12:58 EDT

AM Update

Stocks continue the rebound as we approach recent highs.  Will the series of ups and downs continue, or is the market finally ready to march higher?

The expected pullback remains elusive.  Even bulls are cautious near all-time highs and that wariness on both sides is what keeps propping up this market.  No doubt there are chasers running in, but the majority is reluctant to fully embrace these highs because common sense tells us we’ve come too-far, too-fast.

People often look down on dumb money that impulsively rushes in and out, but many times smart money over analyzes the situation and misses the trade.  Smart money is taking profits here after such a long run, but we keep marching higher, what gives?  To figure this out we need to understand what other people think and how they are positioned.

Those that expect near-term weakness are taking profits and holding back on new purchases, but the market is unfazed by this selling and reduced demand.  Without a doubt the market will pullback at some point, but we have to acknowledge the strength in this face of this selling is impressive.  Cautious smart money will eventually be right, but making money in the market is all about timing and no matter how smart we are, if we get the timing wrong we lose money.

Many traders are light this market ahead of the expected pullback.  If they already sold, that selling pressure is removed from markets and makes it easier to head higher.  Big money is bullish on this market but hates buying new highs.  They often wait for the dips to stock up and that is why every dip finds a floor.  Swing-traders and dip-buyers do not have the resources to keep supporting this market for this long, meaning real money is standing behind this move.

Expected Outcome:
We can trade our opinions or we can trade the market and this market simply refuses to breakdown.  Without a doubt this market will selloff at some point, but it is not giving any signals the breakdown is imminent.  In fact it is far more resilient than most expected and that is extremely bullish in of itself.

I don’t feel comfortable with the rally, but the hardest trade is usually the right trade.  Without a doubt this rally is living on borrowed time and will breakdown at some point, but the trend remains higher and will likely continue for a while longer.

Alternate Outcome:
I’ve been bearish on this market for six-weeks and while its largely moved sideways in that period, the lack of a breakdown make the continuation more likely.  But “more likely” is not a guarantee and we need to continue watching for the inevitable selloff.  Markets have a habit of convincing us we are wrong just before proving us right.  Its taken me a while to come back around to the rally, and I very well could be changing my mind just the selloff begins.  But I’m okay with that because as a small trader I can reverse my position in a moments notice.  I don’t mind being wrong, but I can’t stand staying wrong.

Trading Plan:
The rally is intent on taking out 1,600 and that will continue the pattern of higher-highs.  It is possible buying stalls after new high as the up and down continues, but the rally is not in jeopardy until we break the 50dma at 1450.  I will be more cautious if the rebound stalls short of news highs at 1597.

AMZN daily at 12:58 EDT

AMZN daily at 12:58 EDT

AAPL is up modestly following Tuesday’s earnings.  It appears some buyers are encouraged by they lack of a selloff and feel more comfortable with a potential negative catalyst removed from the stock.  But they are ignoring the trend and are bottom-picking, something that hasn’t worked well for many AAPL bulls.  A popular definition of insanity applies here, doing something over and over yet expecting a different result.

AMZN is higher ahead of earnings.  Even though the valuation is sky-high, Bezos knows how to play the market and I give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to wooing shareholders.  If earnings disappoint,  there is a lot of air under this stock and plenty of time to get in on the short side with far less risk.

Lifecycle: maturing CRAN status Codecov test coverage R build status

This package provides an R client for the RStudio Connect Server API as well as helpful functions that utilize the client. The package is based on the rsconnnect package, but is publicly exported to be easier to use, is extensible via an R6 class, and is separated from the rsconnect package for easier support and maintenance.

Because many of these functions are experimental, it is advisable to be cautious about (1) upgrading the package, (2) upgrading RStudio Connect when you care about the reproducibility of workflows that use connectapi. As a result, we would advise:

Please pay careful attention to the lifecycle badges of the various functions and warnings present when you are using experimental features.

Also, please share feedback!! We love hearing how the RStudio Connect Server API is helpful and what additional endpoints would be useful!!

To install from CRAN:

To install the development version:

To create a client:

client <- connect(
  server = '',
  api_key = '<SUPER SECRET API KEY>'

You can also define the following environment variables (in a .Renviron file, for instance):

CONNECT_API_KEY = my-secret-api-key

These environment variable values will be used automatically if defined in your R session.

client <- connect()

Getting Started

Once a client is defined, you can use it to interact with RStudio Connect.

Exploring Data

You can use the get_ methods to retrieve data from the RStudio Connect server.

client <- connect()

# get data
users <- get_users(client)
groups <- get_groups(client)
usage_shiny <- get_usage_shiny(client)
usage_static <- get_usage_static(client)
some_content <- get_content(client)

# get all content
all_content <- get_content(client, limit = Inf)

The rsconnect package is usually used for deploying content to Connect. However, if you want to use programmatic deployment with the RStudio Connect Server API, then these connectapi helpers should be useful!

client <- connect()

# deploying content
# NOTE: a `manifest.json` should already exist from `rsconnect::writeManifest()`

bundle <- bundle_dir("./path/to/directory")
content <- client %>%
  deploy(bundle, name = "my-app-name") %>%

# set an image for content

content %>%

content %>%

# set image and a vanity URL

content %>%
  set_image_path("./my/local/image.png") %>%

# change access_type to "anyone"

content$update(access_type = "all")
# edit another piece of content

client %>%
  content_item("the-content-guid") %>%
# migrate content to another server

client_prod <- connect(
  server = "",
  api_key = "my-secret-key"

prod_bnd <- client %>%
  content_item("the-guid-to-promote") %>%

client_prod %>%
  deploy(prod_bnd, title = "Now in Production") %>%

# open a browser to the content item
client_prod %>% browse_dashboard()
client_prod %>% browse_solo()

# open a browser to the docs
client_prod %>% browse_api_docs()

Troubleshooting and FAQ

Access Denied Errors?

This is likely due to either (1) Connect$server or Connect$api_key being defined improperly or (2) you do not have access to the RStudio Connect cluster to do the operation in question

Constant warning about version numbers

This warning is intentionally chatty. While version number mismatches between RStudio Connect and connectapi can be benign, we want you to be clear that connectapi is tightly coupled to a version of RStudio Connect (because RStudio Connect’s APIs change over time).

We strive to:

These priorities are sometimes at odds, and sometimes they create inconsistencies between versions as a result. To mitigate this, we recommend:

Error - Need to update RStudio Connect

As a helpful clarification for users, we have added error messages to API requests when the version implemented in the package specifically introduces a backwards incompatible dependency on older versions of RStudio Connect.

If you get this error message, our recommendation would be:

Please feel free to open an Issue if you think there is a bug, or ask a free-form question on RStudio Community

Other ideas for FAQs or Common Issues?

Please submit a PR! We would love to have your contribution!

Code of Conduct

Please note that the connectapi project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct. By contributing to this project, you agree to abide by its terms.

What You Aren’t Being Told About Astronomy, Vol I Our Created Solar System and Our Created Stars and Galaxies | DVD Third Edition | Spike Psarris | CAM

(3 customer reviews)

ID: 696859053498

Now includes volumes 1 and 2

Volume 1: Our Created Solar System DVD

The best evolutionary models say that many of the planets in our solar system should not exist. Yet there they are. Did God create our Solar System less than 10,000 years ago, as the Bible says? Or did it form all by itself from a cloud of gas 4,6000,000,000 years ago, as secular astronomers claim? Which account of history is true? Recent discoveries in space have supported the Biblical account of astronomy. Each planet in our Solar System defies the evolutionary model in multiple ways. Many of the planets and moons appear to be young, not billions of years old. Plus, these objects show evidence of design, not random processes. In this video, you will tour our magnificent Solar System, and explore these wonders in the heavens. Along the way, you will visit each of the planets and many of their moons, through more than 230 breath-taking photographs and graphics from NASA and other sources. Evolutionary models say that many of the planets in our solar system should not exist. But here they are. Watch what you aren’t being told about astronomy.

Volume 2: Our Created Stars and Galaxies DVD

We live in a Universe of overwhelming size and beauty. It contains about 100 billion galaxies, each of which contains about 100 billion stars. Did you know that according to the secular model, none of them should exist? In this video you’ll see how recent discoveries contradict the naturalistic view of history. You’ll hear the words of secular astronomers, as they admit that their models fail to explain the contents of the universe. You’ll discover evidence for design in the heavenly bodies. And you’ll see over 130 breathtaking photographs, videos, and graphics from NASA and other sources, revealing some of the most beautiful objects in the Universe. The Bible tells us that God created the heavens for His own purposes. Viewing the Universe in the light of Scripture gives us tremendous insight into His majesty, His character, and what He has done for us. Discover how stars and galaxies proclaim the glory of the Creator!

3 reviews for What You Aren’t Being Told About Astronomy, Vol I Our Created Solar System and Our Created Stars and Galaxies | DVD Third Edition | Spike Psarris | CAM

  1. I am an engineer at Kennedy Space Center (KSC) and I was so impressed with the scientific and presentation quality that I ordered 4 more copies. This video is so professionally done that children through adults will enjoy learning how our solar system was formed. I have watched it at least 5 times. Out of the hundreds of DVDs and books I have on these subjects, this is the best astronomy DVD I have seen. My wife just watched it with me and she now wants to send a copy to our three grandkids in Michigan for their school work (7, 8, 9 years old). She is homeschooling our grandkids remotely from Florida.

    A link to this DVD needs to be added to the MiraculousBible.org website (The site answers: What would prove that the Bible is a miracle? Or what would be considered as evidence it could only be from God? Videos like this one are one of the many proofs.). I have discussed evolution’s many theories with many scientists at KSC. They want proof (scientific, historical, mathematical, logical, etc.) that the Bible is a reliable book. This video provides some of those proofs for the Bible and shows you some of the miracles required for evolution (solar system formation).

    Evolutionists hide the many miracles that would be required if evolution was true. But scientists and engineers like this (DVD’s Spike Psarris) will be attacked from every corner of the educational & media establishment because the evidence shown in the DVD is so compelling that anyone can understand that evolutionists are hiding evolution’s miracles.

    Scientists (& truth seekers) are supposed to follow the evidence, not popular opinion or emotional arguments. So notice the arguments made against this DVD. Notice their emotions and appeal to majority opinions. Then examine the evidences for yourself. Stop letting your family be led as sheep to the slaughter. The evidence speaks for itself. Again, see […] for even more proofs.

    Which miracles will you believe in? I will believe in the miracles that have the evidences to back them up.

  2. An extremely well done and up-to-date video narrated by a former NASA scientist. He explains complicated concepts in understandable terms to non-scientists. As the title states, there is a lot of misinformation in the media today about how the planets are formed. After seeing this video you will see the giant holes in many of the current theories, big bang and such, and probably won’t enjoy watching the Nova series as much. As an electrical engineer I appreciated the balanced approach to this topic backing things up with documented quotes from scientific literature. Regardless if you believe in creation or not, it’s important to become informed on the current state of scientific thinking is on this important topic.

  3. Vinnie Harned

    Recently I got my hands on what could possibly be the most awesome Creation Astronomy Dvd that I’ve ever watched. ‘What you aren’t Being told about Astronomy is a Dvd series by Spike Psarris. The first volume in the series covers the solar system*.
    Spke Psarris was previously an engineer in the United States’ military space program. He entered that program as an atheist and an evolutionist. He left it as a creationist and a Christian. This video shows some of what convinced him that creation was true.
    Spike does a good job in the video of not only showing the obscurity of the evolutionary world view, but also shows the evidence for the Biblical account of creation. Spike also points out that although we can find a lot of evidence for creation, science can never completely prove historical events. Even so, we can still see the evidence of God in the universe around us.
    After being guided through the entire solar system in the DVD, I feel much more informed (yes that’s right, I don’t know everything), and now I can’t wait to get my hands onto volume 2!

Improve Your Smile with Botox

Have you noticed some wrinkles forming around your mouth or eyes? Aging is such a natural process that we often don’t realize it’s happened until we look in the mirror one day and notice all the changes. As we age, our skin begins to thin out, causing wrinkles to form. These wrinkles can deepen, sometimes affecting the appearance of our smiles.

Luckily, there are modern-day solutions to this age-old problem. Crestview Family Dental is pleased to offer Botox injections and soft tissue fillers that will smooth out wrinkles and lift your smile.

How will Botox help my smile?

Botox, or Botulinum toxin, is commonly used to essentially stiffen and paralyze sagging skin. In dentistry, Botox injections are used to augment several treatments, such as high lip line.

Your lip line is where the lower part of your upper lip is when you smile. For some people, that line is higher up than normal. Botox injections can help relax that strained area for a more natural looking smile.

Botox is most commonly used to freeze areas of the skin prone to wrinkles. In addition, Botox can be used to help patients adjusting to dentures and for lip augmentation.

Talk with our office to see how we can enhance your smile today!

Last Thursday, 26 October, the region’s leading anti-fraud professionals gathered in Karachi, Pakistan, for CRI® Group’s Pakistan’s 1st ever Anti-Bribery Summit. CRI® Group took the initiative to organise the first Anti-Bribery Summit in Pakistan with the goal to redefine the anti-bribery culture within organisations in the country.

The Anti-Bribery Summit couldn’t have come at a more critical time, or have been held in a more relevant location – Pakistan is on the front lines of a struggle between those who wilfully engage in bribery and corruption, and those who endeavour to put a stop to it. But the problem of corruption is worldwide, affecting government, military and public sector organisations.

“The international nature of business today means that many companies operating in Pakistan and nearby countries are doing business across foreign borders, and in such cases find themselves subject to laws and regulations that aim to limit corruption and bribery on a global scale,” said Zafar Anjum, Chief Group Executive, CRI® Group. “That is why our Anti-Bribery Summit 2017 included sessions on compliance for the most significant international laws and regulations.”

The Anti-Bribery Summit 2017 included sessions on compliance for the most significant international laws and regulations, including a Q&A session with an expert on the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Attendees also learned about compliance pitfalls, and how to engage in proper third party due diligence to keep their organisations safe from unethical partners that could hurt the organisation’s reputation and bottom line.

“It was good to see international speakers from UN and OECD on the practices being used and available standards for comparing our policies and procedures,” said Riaz Nazarali Chunara, Director, State Bank Of Pakistan.

Experts share their message

The Anti-Bribery Summit brought together some of the greatest minds in the fight against corruption, with a lineup of expert speakers that shared their experiences, knowledge and best practices with an attentive audience .

Keynote speakers included Drago Kos, Chair of the OECD Working Group on Bribery in International Business Transactions and Co-Chair of the Defence Corruption Monitoring Committee in Ukraine and adviser to the Kosovo Anti-Corruption Agency (see an exclusive video interview with Drago Kos about the Summit); Jouhaida Hanano, Criminal Justice Advisor – Sub-Programme II, UNODC Pakistan; Shehzad Yousuf, Chief Internal Auditor at PTCL; Tariq Hussain, Former Director / HOD Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) – Supervision and Enforcement and Company Law Division; Ali Anwer Adil, Head of Internal Audit, Fraud Management and Revenue Assurance at Zong; and Ghulam Farooq, Director at The National Accountability Bureau.

“(It was) a wonderful conference on anti-bribery held by CRI® Group,” said Muhammad Nauman Ahmed, Head of Compliance at PEL. Ahmed said the “most amazing part” was that “OECD Anti-Bribery chairman Mr. Drago Kos and Director NAB, Sindh attended the conference.”

“SECP representatives were also present,” Ahmed said, calling it a “great event” for learning about the most current practices to counter bribery in Pakistan.

Featuring keynote addresses, Q&A sessions, trainings and a panel discussion, the Anti-Bribery Summit addressed topics critical to any organisation leader or executive in the region including anti-bribery compliance issues, strategies, the FCPA and UK Bribery Act, the corporate culture in Pakistan, conducting proper risk management and due diligence.

“It was a really good event, very well organized and an excellent learning experience,” said Yousuf Ali, Executive Manager, Assurance, EY Ford Rhodes. “My team and I at Ernst & Young thoroughly enjoyed it. Especially the presentation from Mr Shehzad Yousuf.”

“We are looking forward to other such events,” Ali said.

CRI® Group thanks all of the attendees, speakers and everyone involved in making the Anti-Bribery 2017 an unmatched success!

Rougement, Switzerland.

20Rougement, SwitzerlandRougemont is a municipality in the Pays-d’Enhaut of the canton of Vaud in Switzerland.Rougemont is first mentioned in 1115 as Rubeus Mons and Rogemot. The name of the village also appears in various forms in medieval chronicles: Rubeimontis, Rogemont, Rubeo monte, Rogo mons, and Rojomont. The name stems from the red rock outcroppings north of the village. The site was probably first settled by a religious order coming from Cluny in France, which had received the land in 1080 from the Count of Gruyère. In 1569, the priory was replaced by the château of Rougemont, which became the residence of the bailiffs of Bern, who succeeded the Count of Gruyère. The area became part of the canton of Vaud in 1798.

Novelis Breaks Ground For Aluminum Recycling Center In Ulsan

Innovation We’re driven to develop new solutions and relationships that aid make houses healthier, more sustainable and extra reflective of the people today who reside in them. 3003has exceptional corrosion resistance properties and withstands outdoor elements. It is uncomplicated to weld, operate, and fabricate into decorative trim, components, and tread plates. 1100is produced with soft, commercially pure aluminum and has a higher degree of thermal and electrical conductivity. Historically, aluminum has proven to be one particular of the most critical supplies in productive recycling applications.

Wrought iron is good for, say, fences, whereas cast aluminum can be utilized to make exceptional kitchen components, as nicely as automotive components used inside the vehicle. Wrought iron is utilized heavily in infrastructure and design and when turned into steel with the addition of carbon, can be discovered in each day tools, kitchenware, and safety solutions. Mainly, cast aluminum is noticed in automotive parts to improve the fuel-efficiency of cars.

Material Properties – Material properties of gases, fluids and solids – densities, certain heats, viscosities and more. Aluminum alloys are divided into the wrought and cast categories according to how they are developed. In case of reaction with Nitric acid, it reacts passively by forming a protective oxide layer on its surface of Aluminium Oxide. It is frequently protected by a layer of inert transparent Aluminium oxide that forms quickly in the air but is discovered to be hugely reactive in nature. Aluminium types amphoteric oxides, that is, it shows both acidic and simple character.

Nevertheless, the functionalities described herein are not to be limited for implementation into any particular hardware/software platform. This section of the sorting program may possibly be configured to separate and sort scrap pieces produced of copper, copper wire, and brass, which may well be deposited into 1 or a lot more bins. In accordance with certain embodiments of the present disclosure, every of the copper, copper wire, and brass scrap pieces might be individually sorted and deposited into separate bins for copper 3836c, copper wire 3837c, and brass 3838c. The remaining heterogeneous mixture of scrap pieces (plastic wood, rubber, PCB, and e-scrap) may perhaps other then be deposited into a receptacle or bin 3840, or may well be additional processed by an added sorting program as previously described. For instance, a sorting device might utilize air jets, with each of the air jets assigned to one particular or much more of the classifications. High speed air valves from Mac Industries may well be utilized, for example, to provide the air jets with an suitable air pressure configured to eject the scrap pieces 101 from the conveyor belt 103.

Recovery is shown to negligibly impact hardening price except at stresses close to yield . Recrystallization causes a substantial hardening rate reduction at continual tension. The subgrains in 5083-H116 sequentially evolve through recovery and recrystallization .

If the aluminium has impurities in it, the melting point is greater. There’s also a opportunity that it will differ more than a wide temperature range. If the aluminium is pure, the melting point variety varies within one particular or two degrees Celsius.

One particular sort of stacking fault, named a 9R phase, is specifically promising, Zhang says. Eliminates heat treat price and distortion, superior castability for shock towers, structural components, battery housings, and so forth. Every little thing has two sides, aluminium alloy also has some disadvantages as follows. This is an open access write-up distributed below the Inventive Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, supplied the original function is adequately cited. Chauhan, “Characterization of hybrid aluminum matrix composites for sophisticated applications – a critique,” Journal of Supplies Study and Technology, vol. Licensee could terminate this Agreement at any time by destroying all copies of the ASTM Documents and terminating all access to the ASTM Product.

Aluminium or aluminum is a chemical element with symbol Al and atomic number 13. It is a silvery-white, soft, nonmagnetic and ductile metal in the boron group. By mass, aluminium tends to make up about eight% of the Earth’s crust it is the third most abundant element just after oxygen and silicon and the most abundant metal in the crust, even though it is much less prevalent in the mantle beneath. Aluminium metal is so chemically reactive that native specimens are rare and limited to extreme minimizing environments. Heat and electrical energy conductivity is a home of all metals, aluminum, nevertheless, is a improved conductor than iron.

The smelting method is a continuous one particular, with a lot more alumina being added to the cryolite solution to replace the decomposed compound. The metallic element aluminum is the third most plentiful element in the earth’s crust, comprising 8% of the planet’s soil and rocks (oxygen and silicon make up 47% and 28%, respectively). In nature, aluminum is identified only in chemical compounds with other components such as sulphur, silicon, and oxygen.

In the period up to 1890, about 200 metric tonnes of aluminum was developed by Deville’s strategy. Gold and lead have been smelted more than 8000 years ago, and the Bronze Age of copper, tin, and zinc started more than 6000 years ago. Iron, which demands a lot larger temperatures, only became out there about 3000 years ago. Ahead of about 1850, it was far more worthwhile this page than gold simply because refining it was so tough. Aluminum is truly precious, and we truly want to value it extra. As customers, we want to appreciate it and not just throw it away.

Other studies reported Al concentrations in brewed tea ranging among 3-4 mg/L, these concentrations are 10 occasions greater than those identified in coffee . Aluminium levels can be discovered naturally in foods, but these levels can be larger due to the use of meals additives (sulphates, phosphates, silicates, etc.) and the use of cooking utensils made of aluminium . ICP-MS is an analytical strategy in a position to develop multi-elemental evaluation with a higher sensitivity .

The nature of these two processes signifies that cast aluminum is created up of larger percentages of the alloying elements. There are two significant sorts of aluminium alloys cast and wrought aluminium alloys. The essential difference in between cast and wrought aluminium alloys is that the cast aluminium alloys have lots of internal and external defects whereas the wrought aluminium alloys are typically free of charge of internal and external defects. The corrosion prices of wrought aluminium alloy coupons immersed in corrosion test environments with out heating show much better resistance to degradation by the test media when compared to these subjected to temperature above ambient .

A range of nations, such as France, Italy, Poland, Finland, Romania, Israel, and the former Yugoslavia, have issued coins struck in aluminium or aluminium-copper alloys. Substrate material of metal-core copper clad laminates utilized in high brightness LED lighting. Aluminium carbide is produced by heating a mixture of the components above 1,000Â Â°C (1,832Â Â°F). The pale yellow crystals consist of tetrahedral aluminium centres.

Shear strength is the ability of a material to resist becoming sheared by opposing forces along a plane, just as a scissor cuts by means of paper. As the two scissor blades close, their opposing forces act on the cross sectional plane of the paper and result in it to fail “in shear”. This value url is valuable in torsional applications (shafts, bars etc.), exactly where twisting can result in this sort of shearing stress on a material. The shear strength of 6061 aluminum alloy is 207 MPa , and these values are summarized in Table 1.
