Windows 11 leaked yesterday, offering a closer look at some of the UI changes Microsoft is planning for its next version of Windows. The leak has also revealed what will likely become Microsoft’s default wallpaper for Windows 11, and a collection of new wallpapers that are bundled with the operating system. They’re Microsoft’s best Windows wallpapers yet.

The main default wallpaper includes light and dark mode versions, with what looks like a crumpled piece of fabric. It’s a big departure from the Windows logo that was used as the default in Windows 10, or the two daisy flowers in Windows 8.

You can download the full-size versions in the gallery above.

Microsoft has also included a collection of other wallpapers inside Windows 11. The “Captured Motion” set offer a more colorful option, and the “Flow” collection are a more subtle take on the default. “Glow” is a set of four colorful orbs that light up the Windows 11 backdrop, and the “Sunrise” collection are a clear nod to the Sun Valley codename for the Windows 11 UI work.

As this is an early and incomplete version of Windows 11, it’s not clear how many of these images will ship in the final version. These already look better than the flowers and scenic backgrounds included in Windows 10, and fit the overall UI changes to Windows 11. If you haven’t seen exactly what Microsoft is changing in Windows 11, check out our hands-on to see the new UI, Start menu, and more.

In-Person Classes, One Year After Temple Shutdown

Almost a year ago today, Temple University would change the way courses were taught and completely impact the normalcy of what a typical college day consists of. Virtual learning and courses have replaced what it feels like to be in a regular educational setting and many students were forced to quickly adjust to the new norm. A lot of Temple students felt it was a relearning process of what it is to be a college student. Participation and communication that was once face to face or partner to partner, was suddenly changed from black screens with student names that talk to one another mostly through chats. Spring 2020 first introduced the new wave of learning through screens pretty early, fast forwarding until today. Temple students have been virtual since the start of the spring 2021 semester.

To say the least it has been an exhausting change for many students, faculty, and teachers. Learning solely through technology has taken an undeniable toll on student’s physical activity, balanced mental and emotional health, and a more regulated social life.While some students are still completely virtual this semester, there are a number of students that have 1-2 in-person classes and are loving every minute of it. Although these in-person classes are in session, these courses are still operating under very strict COVID-19 guidelines. Students are required to follow the four public health pillars which include: face masks, physical distancing, hand hygiene, and staying home if sick.

Junior student Owen Glazer, felt Temple’s strict rules have helped keep in-person courses safe and enjoyable. His concerns were only related to students habits outside of campus. “We follow procedures, we wear our masks, and we social distance, Temple as a whole has done very, very well.” Owen, like others have felt safe and comfortable enough to share their experiences with in-person learning. Two freshmen brothers, Erin and Kieran Cunningham, felt that their experience with in-person classes was appreciated and needed in such hard times. “Having to be away from peers and distant from everyone you would normally be around seriously affected us, our mental health, and the college experience we looked forward to.”

Many Temple students are overjoyed this spring semester as it has brought back what class feels and looks like to a certain degree. It’s not nearly close to the same as how it used to be, of course, given the circumstances a lot of Temple students feel that this new process of getting classes in-person is a step in the right direction.

March 11, 2021 stands as a special day to reflect on how much has changed for students globally and how Temple University has prevailed throughout the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. However, Thursday expands far beyond Temple, it also stands as a “National Day of Observance” to honor everyone who we lost to the virus and to recognize the impact this global pandemic had on each and everyone of our lives.

Nashville Power Poll: Power poll respondents strongly oppose tax reduction referendums

But referendums could well pass

Nashville Power Poll members are overwhelmingly opposed to rolling back the city’s recent property tax hike. They also oppose amending the Metro Charter in a host of other areas, such as requiring elections if taxes are increased by more than 3%. Requiring such referendums would significantly weaken the mayor, and Metro Council, and turn us more into a direct—rather than representative—democracy. Think California.

While opposed personally to these measures, Power Poll members believe that if an anti-tax referendum ever actually gets on the ballot and is voted on, it’s anybody’s guess what will happen. Such a measure could very well pass.

Here are the specific questions and answers in this June Power Poll:

Question: A Nashville judge last week struck down an effort that would have asked voters in a July 27 election to roll back the city’s property taxes. It was the second such effort that has been quashed in the last year. The most recent effort would also have amended the Metro Charter to require voter referendums in a host of areas, such as land deals, government leases and more. An appeal is likely. Our question: if a similar measure ever appears in a local election, how would you vote?

For: 33 (10.2%)

Against: 273 (84.5%)

Don’t know: 17 (5.3%)

Question: Put on your prediction hat. If a measure similar to the one most recently struck down would have been put before voters, would it have passed?

Yes: 118 (36.5%)

No: 120 (37.1%)

Don’t know: 85 (26.3%)

The Power Poll is not a scientific poll. It does, however, offer up fascinating insights into what our civic leaders are thinking on various issues. Power Poll members include all of the city’s publicly elected officials at the local, state, and federal levels. It includes numerous CEO’s and other important business figures from the private sector. And it includes numerous non-profit heads, donors, activists, educators, and more. This Power Poll was emailed to 604 Nashvillians. 321 responded, for a response rate of 53.15%.

To hear our city leaders describe it, the Visigoths are at our gates, preparing to sack and plunder. Twice in the last year our courts have pushed them away. But one wonders how long our judicial system can hold the Visigoths back until they actually get it right.

Let’s be honest: one of these days, this might actually be voted on. And at that point, all bets are off. Just try convincing people NOT to pay lower taxes. That’s hard. And so, let us begin with a little context as to where we are.

In Fall 2020, all hell broke loose as local attorney Jim Roberts, acting as the apparent leader of a group called “4GoodGovernment,” and doing so in concert with an apparently growing conservative constituency that included the local chapter of Americans for Prosperity, a.k.a. The Koch Brothers, managed to get a petition signed by thousands of voters calling for a rollback in the city’s property tax increase.

The Davidson County Election Commission, one of the few offices in city government that is actually run by Republicans, pushed the measure forward with great gusto, seizing the opportunity to screw with the overwhelmingly Democratic Nashville surrounding them. The mayor and Metro Council temporarily freaked, painting a landscape of Nashville that would make Hieronymus Bosch proud. Rome in Ruins.

Behind-the-scenes, the Chamber and various top-shelf CEOs in the city were worried that Cooper would have zero political capital to run a campaign to defeat the referendum if it actually came to a vote. So they imported their own paid professional hatchet man and got to work figuring out how to stop Roberts.

The whole matter went before a judge, Davidson County Chancellor Ellen Hobbs Lyle, and she threw the proposed election out. Nobody has ever accused Roberts of being a James Madison, and she as much as told him that passage of his poorly written charter amendments would have introduced chaos and ambiguity into our Metro Charter. In response, after the ruling, he told WPLN, “The only question is, do the citizens have the right to vote on this.” True enough, and more on that later.

After Lyle’s ruling, the governing class down in the Metro Courthouse, and the local businessmen who care about having a decent enough level of services to lure still even more corporate headquarters to the city, were happy.

Jim Roberts (Photo: Facebook)
Jim Roberts (Photo: Facebook)

Fast forward a few weeks. Roberts did not sit still. Returning to his drawing board, he came up with six new and improved amendments to the Charter. Again, he was able to get the required number of signatures to place the measure on the ballot. This time around, he tried to correct the problems that popped up earlier. He called for rolling back the property tax rate to where it was before Cooper’s increase, which really wouldn’t have amounted to much—just about $50 million in revenue. But the really severe stuff in Roberts’ charter amendments called for limiting future revenue increases to no more than 3 percent unless voters approved any increase by special election. Truly, we were being asked to adopt a California-style referendum-heavy mode of governance.

Some of the other actions Roberts sought in his proposed Charter amendments would have reduced the number of signatures needed to hold a recall election to remove a Metro official, and require 31 Metro Council votes (out of 40) to give away Metro property. Voter referendums could also be held on land deals over $5 million. Health insurance for Council members and others would have been abolished. And so on. The Republican Metro Election Commission jubilantly set a date of July 27 for voters to either implement, or toss out, these changes.

A suit was filed to stop the election in its tracks. And last week, Davidson County Chancellor Russell Perkins threw out the election. Roberts and his group, Perkins said, had not followed correct procedures on petition ballot initiatives. Nashville’s leadership hierarchy was saved again. The hatchet man flew home. Cooper, who had won election to office arguing the city was mismanaging its finances, praised the judge’s decision.

Given recent American political history, none of this should be particularly surprising, although the stakes are rather alarming when it comes to what this would have done to Nashville’s public sector.

Ronald Reagan introduced, to the nation, two enormously popular political messages: Government is the problem; your taxes are going down. And so we rode that wagon for many decades. It would seem likely that these fiscally conservative messages would work their way down the federal-state-local stepladder. And now they are here.

While it is true that Roberts and 4GoodGovernment would clearly cause Metro to experience a financial hit by rolling back the property tax increase, it would not be a death-blow. The true death-blow would be requiring voters to approve, by referendum, actions currently in the wheelhouse of our elected mayor and Metro Council. Referendums of the magnitude he imagines would gum up the works to an incredible extent.

Back to Roberts’ quotation, the one I mentioned above: “The only question is, do the citizens have the right to vote on this.” Well, in fact, they kind of do. Blind pigs can find acorns too, and one of these days Roberts might actually write something that passes judicial review. And gets on the ballot. And has us all wondering what this will do if it passes. To some, it’s just a matter of time until that happens.

The municipal territory of Camaiore situated in Versilia, extends for 84,59 square kilometres occupying most part of the submontane basin and the pleasant slopes of the Tyrrhenian mountain sides of the Alpi Apuane.

The oldest documents relative to Camaiore go back to the VIII century and are mostly acts of donation of land to the Benedettino monastery of San Pietro, which was built on municipal territory. It then developed under the jurisdiction of Lucca. The village, surrounded by walls towards the middle of the XIV century, in 1429 underwent a ruthless sackage by the Fiorentine militia captained by Rinaldo degli Albizzi and again the following year by the troops of Milano led by Piccinino. It fell into the hands of the Visconti in 1436, and then again taken by the Fiorentini the following year, Camaiore passed definitively to Lucca in 1442, and subsequently followed their destiny. It was raised to City in XIX century by the interest of the Borboni. It is the birthplace of the musician Francesco Gasparini (1668-1727) and Ermenigildo Pistelli philologist and writer (1862-1927).

Places to visit:
Municipal Archaeological Museum, organised in the antique building Tori-Massoni, exhibiting finds from the area surrounding the city.

TGT Hungary Kft. – Pipe Protection, Pipe Packaging and Pipe Storage

TGT was founded in 1995 in the city of Uelzen, Germany. Since then the production takes place in Dorog, Hungary. The “TGT” brand has been well established and steadily expanded to become a world-famous brand in the oil and gas industry. TGT stands for reliability for over 20 years and exceptionally high quality in all matters around OCTG-Thread protection and pipe bundling systems for transport and storage of pipes.

In 2016, there was a restructuring including change of ownership. The company was renamed as TGT Hungary and integrated into the Hungarian DAL-TIM Group. The more than 20 years of “know-how”, all patents and trademark rights have been preserved. This guarantees furthermore an exceptionally high quality and customer satisfaction at competitive prices.

The company premises in Hungary comprises 3 hectares including approx.6,000 m² of workshops.

The current product portfolio includes OCTG thread protection for tubing and casing pipes, pipe bundle systems for the transport and storage of OCTG pipes, as well as bumper rings.

Premium Pipe Protection

One of the biggest problems in transporting the tubes needed for oil and gas production from the tube plant to the drilling site, is the corrosion of the valuable threads. When using old metal protectors, the protection of the threads from damage is not guaranteed.

The solution is a plastic protector, which can be reinforced with a metal shell, if required. Thus the corrosion protection properties of the plastic and the mechanical stability of the metal shells are combined. At this point, the “SNAP-in” system used by the company TGT offers, in contrast to the conventional “punching method”, an excellent and exceptionally stable connection between the plastic core and the metal shell. Loosened metal casings or steel reinforcements lost during transport are now a thing of the past and there is no longer any problem in screwing on or off the protectors. The risk potential of lost steel reinforcements on the transport route (train, road, etc.) is eliminated.

To further improve the corrosion protection of TGT’s metall reinforced thread-protectors, the steel shells are powder coated during the coloring process. This also makes an important contribution to the protection of the environment during the production process.

A uniform color of the complete protector according to customer requirements is also possible.

At the end of the 1990s, TGT recognized the growing need for a high quality, easy-to-use and secure way to transport and store pipes.

In cooperation with well-known companies like SHELL®, VALLOUREC® & Salzgitter Mannesmann Stainless Tubes®, TGT developed the worldwide patented TGT PREMIUM PPS®.

The unique wedge design of the single segments allows a very variable use. We are proud to present one of the world’s strongest and safest tube bundling systems.

The most significant benefits for the customers are also the use of equal segments for different (even non-standard) pipe diameters within a bundle (keynote: picking of drill strings) and the ability to load the finished tube bundles only with slings or with a forklift. Transport systems with “lifting eyes” are no longer necessary. This eliminates the immense costs of regular certification of the transport racks.

The TGT PREMIUM PPS® system has been successfully used worldwide for over two decades. Many satisfied customers can confirm the quality and efficiency.

Reliable Quality

EPC-jel 6925 MIR

Since the start of production in 1995, compliance with international quality standards has been a top priority at TGT.

Thus, TGT products have met the API 5CT annex I latest rev. specification for over 20 years. The ongoing increase in protector requirements by the API Panel has been in the past and will always be monitored by TGT’s QC management in the future, accompanied by product design enhancements, if necessary. This ensures that our customers always receive a product that meets the current quality requirements of the industry. This is confirmed by independent certification companies, such as TÜV Rheinland – Hungary during permanent testing and audits.

The current ISO 9001: 2015 certification can be found on our website.

Of course, TGT is also able to meet increased customer-specific quality guidelines. So, TGT has been approved in Saudi Aramco®.TGT products fulfill i.a. and the extended product specifications of the companies Vallourec®, ExxonMobil®, BP®, TOTAL®, TPS® and many other oil and gas industry giants.

TGT products are manufactured with the claim of excellent quality and exceptional longevity. This saves money and conserves valuable environmental resources.

TGT has voluntarily submitted to a “Code of Conduct” for quality assurance and combating corruption.

Machine Park of Many Opportunities

Our modern machine park in Hungary is developing, currently we are working with our following bigger machines used in the production:

  • CNC-extruder machine
  • Powder paint spraying booth Wagner 2
  • Strip steel cutting machine ABS
  • 4 welding machines
  • 3 plate bending machines
  • 7 eccentric presses
  • 3 CNC-turning lathe Moriseike
  • 5 CNC-Battenfeld-injection moulding machine

Breaking the Backs of America's Farmers, One Bankruptcy at a Time

When Trump launched his trade wars he didn't pay much attention to those Americans likely to become his collateral damage. Among those were America's farmers.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump's trade antics were the straw that broke the farmers' back, triggering a wave of bankruptcies across America's farm belt.
Bankruptcies in three regions covering major farm states last year rose to the highest level in at least 10 years. The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, which includes Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, had double the bankruptcies in 2018 compared with 2008. In the Eighth Circuit, which includes states from North Dakota to Arkansas, bankruptcies swelled 96%. The 10th Circuit, which covers Kansas and other states, last year had 59% more bankruptcies than a decade earlier.
States in those circuits accounted for nearly half of all sales of U.S. farm products in 2017, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data.
The rise in farm bankruptcies represents a reckoning for rural America, which has suffered a multiyear slump in prices for corn, soybeans and other farm commodities touched off by a world-wide glut, made worse by growing competition from agriculture powerhouses such as Russia and Brazil.
Trade disputes under the Trump administration with major buyers of U.S. farm goods, such as China and Mexico, have further roiled agricultural markets and pressured farmers’ incomes. Prices for soybeans and hogs plummeted after those countries retaliated against U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs by imposing duties on U.S. products like oilseeds and pork, slashing shipments to big buyers.
Low milk prices are driving dairy farmers out of business in a market that’s also struggling with retaliatory tariffs on U.S. cheese from Mexico and China. Tariffs on U.S. pork have helped contribute to a record buildup in U.S. meat supplies, leading to lower prices for beef and chicken.
...Agricultural lenders, bankruptcy attorneys and farm advisers warn further bankruptcies are in the offing as more farmers shed assets and get deeper in debt, and banks deny the funds needed to plant a crop this spring.
...Conversations with distressed farmers have become more frequent for Frank Friar, a retired agricultural lender who mans phones at the Wisconsin Farm Center. The organization advises dairy farmers and crop producers on financing options, bankruptcy and when to leave the farm behind. Last year, it received more than 2,300 calls, the most since 2010, and the center has hired more staff in the past two years.
About a dozen times a year, Mr. Friar and his colleagues talk with a farmer who seems to be contemplating suicide, he said. The center’s staff often calls family members or neighbors who can check on the farmers, and sometimes Mr. Friar drives out to farms himself. “The uncertainty, will they survive on the home farm, is [causing] more people to think negatively,” Mr. Friar said.

Most of these farmers are from Heartland states that Trump took in a landslide in 2016. I'm pretty sure they weren't expecting this is how he would make America great again.

Toby said...

Considering the threats from global warming and climate change Trump's agriculture policy (deliberate or not) is insane. There are going to be major disruptions in the corporate food chain; let's not make it worse.

The Mound of Sound said...

This reminds me of an article in today's Guardian about the rightwing morons who pushed Brexit with promises that it would all be milk and honey for the UK.

There's an impulsiveness today whether it's Trumps trade war follies, the UK Tories' Brexit foul up or the Trudeau government's fleecing by Kinder Morgan on the sale of the Trans Mountain pipeline. There's a decided lack of "sober second thought" in today's politics. We will pay dearly for that.

Karl Kolchak said...

It's amazing to read a blogger who argues so passionately against energy policies that increase global warming complaining about Trump's trade wars when the destruction of international trade for pure profit is a fantastic potential development for the environment. The closer agricultural products are consumed to where they are grown, the less fossil fuel will be burned getting them to market. There was a time not even a century ago when this was the NORM for 99% of humanity.

Purple library guy said...

And this is why it's so important that Canada give up on those nasty anti-trade supply management policies. Why would anyone ever want to arrange to, like, produce as much food as they need and guarantee farmers a fair price for it?

Trailblazer said...

I think the article is about small farmers and farms not the multinationals who will be salvinating at the opportunity to buy up farmland at basement prices.

This is a similar scenario to when we have real estate crashes.

Brexit has the potential to put Britains back back in the workhouses with similar bankruptcy scenarios,

the salamander said...

.. we've been seeing tiny snippets about this in MainstreamMedia ever since Trump was elected. The conference or 'rally' banner is interesting - and charged with irony via the grifter Trump at a lectern underneath.. 'Rebuilding Rural America' .. overtones of 'Great Again' .. the great lie .. would love to see a transcript of what garbage crossed his lips.. I may actually do a little searching.. even a video will do. As an Ontario farm boy somewhat growed up, I can summon a pretty fair level of hate & anger for frauds who destroy the lives of farm families and their communities

Anonymous said...

Mound, I'm not sure the farmers are collateral damage so much as intended victims. Big Ag has always benefited from turning land-owning farmers into sharecroppers. With big business lobbyists and champions in charge of most of this regime's cabinet portfolios, allowing Big Ag to acquire acres of land through foreclosure sales seems more like a feature than a bug.

The Mound of Sound said...

What amazes me, Karl, is how you distort what I posted. This isn't about US farmers and foreign markets. Those relationships weren't crafted by some farmer with 400 acres of land. That was the handiwork of their governments. It is about the precarious nature that American farmers (and others) are in due to trade policies engineered in Washington and New York and how neoliberals can ignore them when that suits their, not the farmers', purposes.

The Mound of Sound said...

PLG, I agree. Supply management, like every other government policy, can be vulnerable to manipulation. Quotas, after all, are valuable. But, properly managed, they do suit the country.

The Mound of Sound said...

Over the last few years there have been several articles focusing on how Big Agra with its industrial agriculture is accelerating the degradation of farmland. Monoculture and heavy reliance on agra-chems (fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides) is causing long-term damage. Agricultural run-off is devastating lakes and rivers with algae blooms and the waste ponds of pig farms is contaminating ground water. Oh well, that's the price of progress, eh?

bcwaterboy said...

IF anyone knows a thing or two about bankruptcy it's Donald Trump. The farmers have chosen good company when they cast their vote back in 2016.

Rob said...

It's perfect! The bank forecloses on the little guy, a section or two here and there. Corporate Agra moves in buying it up at a major discount. The bankers get their money back and Big Agra become Bigger Agra. The billionaires strike again. The same thing happened to my great grand parents in Alberta during the 30s. Some things never change.

When looking at the issue of the gender pay gap and the lack of women in boardrooms and top levels across the globe, a common focus is the expectations and actions of women themselves. We are often told that women are not playing up their strengths and asking for the pay they deserve in the ways that men are so confidently doing. Are women underselling themselves and their skills?

There is certainly some truth in this, but the advice does often come across as blaming the victim rather than addressing the cause for the behaviour. It’s important to recognise that there are several complex issues at play – a combination of systematic imbalance and institutional gender bias, subconscious gender bias, and internalised sexism that lead to women underselling themselves.

Individual vs System

There a sense that women should be more grateful for the rarer opportunities that present themselves, and with equality still a work in progress, we can’t have the same expectations as men and ask for the same rewards. So is that progress only slowed by us being slow to demand equal remuneration? Or is it easier to blame the individuals, rather than looking to the system that still offers less and treats employing women of a certain age as a risk rather than an investment?

We’ve probably all heard about, or even experienced ourselves, those moments that make us wonder whether it’s ability or unconscious bias that affects decisions.For example in an interview where two candidates, one male one female, are up against each other for a position. The man secures the role, with both candidates described as very skilled lawyers, but the employer wanted someone with “a little more experience and ability to be autonomous.” Was the female candidate suffering from unconscious bias? Did the male candidate just present himself more confidently?

Let’s focus on the latter question for now. Of course, we accept that sometimes you’ll be outperformed on the day by the better candidate irrespective of gender, we do however, think that there is something to be said for women and confidence and our ability to sell ourselves. How do we get over our inability to talk ourselves up when we clearly have the credentials to do so and how do we not feel shame or awkward about that kind of behaviour? Let’s face it, men are generally assumed to be ambitious in their chosen careers, whereas it is still remarked on for women. An ambitious confident woman can be seen as arrogant, pushy, and any other adjective which have negative connotations. And if we don’t feel naturally inclined or entitled to behave confidently any attempt to emulate that confidence may be seen as forced and inauthentic.

Staying Authentic in the Face of Bias

Christine Nixon, a mentor and consultant and Australia’s first female chief commissioner, has written on her website Women Leading Change about women expressing concerns that achieving seniority means they have to join a ‘boys club’, become hard-edged and reject their female identity and diminish their support of other women as a result. With all these issues at hand, it isn’t enough to state that we should be more assertive in our individual demands and presentation of ourselves and our talents.

What we can do is to collectively interrogate those biases. Recognise it occurring with others and in our own perceptions and actions. Write down achievements and abilities and keep them somewhere close as a constant reminder of what brought you where you are today, and what can take you even further.

Spending time in the company of ambitious and talented women also helps us to remind us that we are deserving of the rewards for hard work. Networking events, even just making time for getting together with like-minded female friends can provide the confidence and vindication needed to go after what you want.

Similarly, mentoring both formal and informal, helping each other up gives both sides extra confidence – visible role models are important not just for women in work but young generations coming through. Never underestimate the power of women with shared experience helping one another in their careers.

The Bottom Line

It’s up to everyone – women, as well as their colleagues, superiors and people in powerful positions regardless of gender – to interrogate our unconscious bias and traditional systems that continue to perpetuate gender inequality. After all, we cannot have a true meritocracy with the best talent in the right roles without tackling those issues first. It’s up to us individually, and organisations and society as a whole. Only then will asking for what we deserve pay off.

The First 5 Things I Do in Camp When Backpacking

By Michael Lanza I doubt that I had any typical routine when arriving at a campsite on my earliest backpacking trips; like many backpackers, I probably just dropped my pack, shucked off my boots, and kicked back until motivated to move by the urge to eat, drink, get warm, or go to the bathroom. Over the years, though, I’ve developed …

10 Tips For Keeping Kids Happy and Safe Outdoors

By Michael Lanza

Some people might say my wife and I are bad parents. We’ve repeatedly and deliberately placed our kids—at young ages—in risky situations. And I’m not talking about letting them ride their bikes without wearing helmets or frequently taking them to McDonald’s.

I’m talking about setting out with seven- and four-year-old kids to cross-country ski through a snowstorm for hours to a backcountry yurt. Tying a six-year-old into a rope and letting him or her rock climb a cliff. Rappelling into slot canyons. Backpacking into the remotest and most rugged wildernesses in the contiguous United States, from the Grand Canyon to the Tetons to Glacier National Park.

The 5 Best Backpacking Trips in Yosemite

By Michael Lanza After years of exploring all over Yosemite on numerous backpacking trips, I’ve learned two lessons about it: Few places inspire the same powerful sense of adventure. And Yosemite’s backcountry harbors such an abundance of soaring granite peaks, waterfalls, and shimmering alpine lakes—plus, over 700,000 acres of designated wilderness and 750 miles of trails—that you can take many …

Building a hygiene routine is important, but can be difficult for those who have trouble with consistency. With some simple tips, tricks, and actions you can create a routine that works for you. We all have different hygienic needs, so it is important to customize your hygiene routine based on yours. Let’s dive into five steps for creating a personal hygiene routine!

1. Decide what routine will work best for you

It’s important to remember that everyone is different, and will have different hygiene routine needs. While preparing the perfect routine for you, be sure to consider your individual hygiene goals and necessities. For example, maybe you add extra products to your skincare routine, or maybe you don’t need to wash your hair daily. This is normal, and it’s great to understand that there is no cookie-cutter routine that is perfect for everyone!

Make sure while creating your routine that you’re including everything in your hygienic needs. You may have health conditions, like incontinence or sensitive skin, that require specific activities or personal hygiene products in your routine. Make sure to do your research on what your routine needs to work for you. If you still need help with your routine, talk with your health providers about your hygienic necessities.

2. Make sure to set up timely reminders

Setting alarms, making lists, and writing down daily reminders are ways to ensure that your personal hygiene routine won’t be forgotten. Life can be busy sometimes, making it easy to forget some of the smallest tasks. Keeping yourself surrounded by reminders about your hygiene is a great way to build consistency and motivation in your routine!

Use an alarm clock, set reminders on your phone, or put sticky notes in relevant places. These are some great and simple ways of staying on track with your hygiene routine. With constant reminders around you, it’s easy to have your hygiene routine become a planned part of your daily life.

3. Create an atmosphere that makes you excited about doing your routine

Personal Hygiene Routine

Having a nice atmosphere to take care of routines is ideal, so why not create one for your personal hygiene routine? It always feels good to be in a nice atmosphere that encourages you to be the best version of yourself. Creating a pleasant atmosphere that invites you to your hygiene habits should help you keep a consistent routine.

Get products that excite you, adorn the area with aesthetically pleasing decorations, or simply make your washroom inviting for your routine. Turning your routine into something that excites you is a great way to build great habits. This will turn what can be a boring chore into something inspiring, pleasant, and exciting!

4. Log your progress in keeping up with your routine

Personal Hygiene Routine

You can never go wrong with logging successes, no matter how small! In your journey to build a routine, recording your progress will be helpful and encouraging. Logging your progress (and even your failures) will help you maintain a consistent and streamlined personal hygiene routine.

Logging every successful moment will help you be able to look back and notice how your routine evolved into something that fits your life. You can log your progress on a notebook, a spreadsheet, or your phone. This simple yet effective tip will make a large difference in your hygiene routine by reminding you of your routine successes. Solidify your good habits by staying consistent with all of your routines!

5. Make sure you have a consistent and healthy sleep schedule

Having a regular sleep schedule promotes a healthier and happier life, as well as keeping a consistent routine! Going to bed at the same time each night is crucial to solidifying your personal hygiene routine. Without a consistent sleep schedule, you may struggle to solidify any routines in general.

Work your hygiene routine into your nightly and morning routines, and eventually the routine will stick. Sleep is a crucial factor when it comes to being able to follow and stick with the structure and organization of your life. Set bedtime reminders and morning alarms to ensure you are keeping a healthy sleep schedule. If you have trouble sleeping, speak with your health care specialist to find advice that will help kickstart your consistent sleeping schedule.

Staying motivated and keeping your routine is hard. All it can take is one irregular part of your day to throw off your entire routine. However, with these five tips, we’re confident you’ll have a daily hygiene routine in no time!

Day two we were up bright and early – Ate breakfast at the hotel, eggs with ham, tomatoes, onions and mushrooms with assorted breads. And coffee! Thank goodness.

We decided to get a little history in and walked to Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas, an iconic fortress with an extensive tunnel system. It was built to keep out the Spanish, as most things were those days. Some of the tunnel walking was a bit scary! Most of them were lit up but not all and you weren’t sure who or what was lurking around the corner. They had a gift shop, of course, so we bought a few trinkets: bracelets for ourselves, a little wallet purse thing for me because I only had my backpack (PS this backpack by Kah & Kee is the BEST travel backpack! The design of it is amazing, you can get multiple books and a water bottle comfortably in it and because of the way the top folds in it doesn’t feel huge. It also has pockets all over and specifically a pocket against your back where you can keep your money and passport safe. Fits very nicely under the plane seat as well.) and a fish shaped music instrument for my nephew.

From the castle we headed to the Museo de Arte Moderno de Cartagena. It is small and had some great pieces. I was introduced to Colombian artist Enrique Grau (seen below), who I’d never heard of. He had a few different subject matters on display in the museum and some of them I liked a lot and some of them not at all. That was an interesting reaction to an artist that I’m not sure I’ve had before. Also! I saw a lady touch a painting! That was crazy. No security here.

Next, off to Abaco Bookstore which had been recommended by a friend. It was a charming, tiny, cramped place and it was hard to find any books. The area where I think Alice in Wonderland might have been was completely blocked by chairs and boxes. Maybe it was inventory day? Seemed like a good place to get a coffee and hang and not really to browse books.

On the way back to the hotel for our afternoon siesta, we popped into a place a few doors down from hotel. This restaurant was completely open like a courtyard and had musicians playing. We had some more limonade de coco, Colombia Club beers and fish arepas (YUM). We tried to order another round and found it quite difficult, so we headed out. After we’d been there for a bit, we realized we were at Restaurante Pavia, which had been highly recommended by one of Jennie’s friends.

After hitting the hotel pool for a bit and getting in some reading, we headed out for the night. We stopped for dinner at a place not too far from our hotel. The menu had an entrée with fish and coconut sauce that sounded pretty good so even though it was a bit expensive we decided to live by the ‘treat yourself’ manta. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the prices and this was a good lesson for us…stick to the street vendors! The food is better.

We walked over to El Arsenal: The Rum Box where we first got hugs from Alejandro, who I later found out Jennie thought was a pickpocket and did not realize he was with the restaurant. We were given samples of Dictador rum with a side of chocolate and a bowl of cooked peppers.  I ordered a vaporized shot – what a production! I had to inhale smoke out of a jar with a straw. Jennie ordered what basically ended up as a car bomb and we each ordered cocktails as well. Mine was rum, coconut and espresso and the coconut was formed into a frozen ball that acted as an ice cube. I also dream of this cocktail. From here we went to Alquimico for hip, trendy drinks and had some lobster with plantain chips. It was not our scene and we ended up back on the street with the empanada vendors, grabbing empanadas to eat on our way back to the hotel for the night.

During his lifetime John Bowlby, the founder of attachment theory, was unable to publish as he wished due to strong opposition to his ideas. Now, with the support of the Bowlby family, several complete and near-complete works from the John Bowlby Archive at the Wellcome Collection are published for the first time.

The collection spans Bowlby’s thinking from his early ideas to later reflections, and is split into four parts. Part 1 includes essays on the topic of loss, mourning and depression, outlining his thoughts on the role of defence mechanisms. Part 2 covers Bowlby’s ideas around anxiety, guilt and identification, including reflections on his observations of and work with evacuated children. Part 3 features three seminars on the subject of conflict, in which Bowlby relates clinical concepts to both political philosophy and psychoanalysis in innovative ways. Part 4 consists of Bowlby’s later reflections on trauma and loss, and on his own work as a therapist.

This remarkable collection not only clarifies Bowlby’s relationship with psychoanalysis but features his elaboration of key concepts in attachment theory and important moments of self-criticism.

It will be essential reading for clinicians, researchers, and others interested in human development, relationships and adversity.

Robbie Duschinsky is Senior University Lecturer in Social Sciences in the Primary Care Unit, University of Cambridge. He is also a Fellow and Director of Studies at Sidney Sussex College.

Kate White is an attachment-based psychoanalytic psychotherapist, supervisor and member of The Bowlby Centre, London.

Gold cuts losses after ADP jobs report disappoints

on – Gold prices came off the lowest levels of the session on Wednesday, after data showed that U.S. non-farm private employment rose less than expected in July, dampening optimism over the strength of the economy and fanning hopes that the Federal Reserve could delay raising interest rates until the very end of 2015

for December delivery on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange dipped $1.00, or 0.09%, to trade at $1,089.70 a troy ounce during U.S. morning hours after hitting a session low of $1,083.40 overnight.

A day earlier, gold inched up $1.30, or 0.12%, to close at $1,090.70. Futures fell to a five-and-a-half year low of $1,072.30 on July 24. Gold prices lost $79.50, or 6.72%, in July, the biggest monthly decline since June 2013.

Payroll processing firm ADP said earlier that rose by 185,000 last month, below expectations for an increase of 215,000. The economy created 229,000 jobs in June, whose figure was downwardly revised from a previously reported increase of 237,000.

While not viewed as a reliable guide for the government jobs report due on Friday, July 7, it does give guidance on private-sector hiring.

Later in the day, the ISM was to report on service sector activity. Market players were also waiting for Friday’s U.S. nonfarm payrolls report. The consensus forecast is that the report will show jobs growth of 223,000.

Gold has been under heavy selling pressure in recent months amid speculation the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates for the first time in nine years as soon as September.

The , which measures the greenback’s strength against a trade-weighted basket of six major currencies, turned lower following the disappointing jobs report.

The greenback has been boosted recently by expectations that the improving U.S. economy will prompt the Federal Reserve to raise short term interest rates as early as September.

Also on the Comex, for September delivery tacked on 1.8 cents, or 0.12%, to trade at $14.57 a troy ounce.

Elsewhere in metals trading, for September delivery declined 0.6 cents, or 0.24%, to trade at $2.356 a pound during morning hours in New York.

Data on Wednesday showing that activity in China’s services sector grew at its fastest pace in 11 months in July failed to ease concerns over the health of the nation’s economy.

The rose to 53.8 last month from June’s reading of 51.8, hitting the highest level since August 2014.

Copper tumbled to a six-year low of $2.321 earlier in the week, following the release of disappointing Chinese manufacturing activity data.

The Asian nation is the world’s largest copper consumer, accounting for almost 40% of world consumption last year.

How do you measure emissions in an open barn?

09 August 2021

Much effort is being made within the Dutch livestock sector to reduce ammonia and methane emissions. But, how do you measure these emissions? How do we know what the current concentrations are? And, even more to the point, how can you measure emissions in an open barn? Doesn’t everything just – litterally - evaporate into thin air?

Karin Groenestein starts grinning immediately when confronted with this question. “Ah yes! This question is dead-on!” Karin is a researcher at Wageningen Livestock Research and is, directly and indirectly, involved in many of the Integrated Approach (Integraal Aanpakken) projects, aimed to reduce ammonia and methane from the livestock sector: “To start off with, it is important to know what exactly emission is. To keep it simple, the rule of thumb is: emission = concentration x ventilation”, Karin says.

In order to calculate this, we need to know the concentration of ammonia or methane in a barn. In short: how much of these substances are in the barn? Moreover, we need to know about ventilation, which is the amount of air that flows through the barn. Because polluted air can only be expelled from the barn if fresh air is let in. Otherwise, the emission is zero.

Good sensors and a proper measuring method are the key to reliable data, the researcher explains. “As is the case in your private life: buy cheaply, pay dearly. Cheap sensors are generally less accurate, and accuracy is precisely what is needed. Particularly in naturally ventilated barns such as dairy cattle barns. We need to measure the difference between the air outside -which may also contain ammonia- and the air inside, which contains more ammonia. The difference is sometimes minimal, which makes using an accurate sensor essential.

Karin goes on to explain that each reading is taken twice. “The numbers tell the tale. So, if all goes well, both readings are the same. If so, the data is reliable.”

In addition to sensors, the researchers also measure the ammonia concentration by forcing barn air through a bottle containing an acid. This acid extracts the ammonia from the barn air. The ammonia content in the acid is then measured in the lab. Since they know how many litres of barn air has been 'bubbled' in the bottle, the researchers can calculate the concentration of ammonia in the barn.

Images: Researcher Hendrik Jan van Dooren seals the bottles used to measure ammonia.

Measuring greenhouse gasses such as nitrous oxide and methane is done slightly differently. The scientists use the so-called lung method: a large container with a vacuum bag inside. Karin: “When we open the valve in the bag, it will draw in barn air during 24 hours. We then analyse the air in the lab. There, we have expensive measuring equipment that can determine exactly how much methane and nitrous oxide the air contains.”

“Now we know the levels of ammonia, methane and nitrous oxide in the barn air. But this is not the same as emission. We need the second component for our calculation: ventilation. Knowing how much air leaves the barn is essential. In mechanically ventilated barns, this is simple enough. You just measure the volume of air that runs through the ventilation shaft”, Karin explains. “This is not an option in a dairy cattle barn, as these are often naturally ventilated, with open sides.”

“We had to think of a work-around. We know how much CO2 a cow exhales. So, if there are 100 heads of cattle in the barn, in this hypothetical case, there should be 5000 ppm of CO2 in the barn air if there was no ventilation at all. The barn is, however, ventilated, so we measure the concentration of CO2 in the barn. If this is, say, 500 ppm CO2, we know that the air has been diluted tenfold. This means that ten times the barn volume in fresh air has passed through the building. And with it, methane and ammonia.”

“Now, we have the two components we need for our calculation”, Karin says. “We know the concentration, and we know the ventilation. This allows us to calculate the emission. This is a slightly simplified explanation; reality is a bit more complicated. Aspects such as temperature, wind velocity, barn hygiene and concentration in the outside air all influence the concentration in the barn, and the airflow.

Measuring emissions is a rather precise job and essential for integrated solutions in cattle farming!”

Scottish Football, And In Particular Celtic, Has The Officials That It Deserves.

Image for Scottish Football, And In Particular Celtic, Has The Officials That It Deserves.

Last night, we saw the latest shocking incident involving Alfredo Morelos.

I use the word shocking loosely.

It was not a shock to see him viciously stamp on a rival player, although that kind of thing easily meets the textbook definition.

It was not a shock, either, to see the referee do nothing about it, because this was Morelos after and he seems to have immunity from red cards.

No the truly shocking thing about it was just how un-shocking the whole scenario was.

We are used to this now; it’s become a Trumpian type of thing where we now just shrug our shoulders and say “well it’s him, isn’t it?” followed by “and he gets away with murder.”

He went on to score the winning goal and was immediately wrapped in the cotton wool of deflect and deny by his manager, but really I don’t know why Gerrard bothers any longer with the charade.

He saw it and approves of it, that’s obvious or he’d do something about it.

He should just be brazen about it like the player himself, like the refs who waive away the protests.

Jack Ross went on the telly and the radio and moaned about how the decision had cost them, as we would have moaned, as Lennon did moan about the Bitton sending off, and other incidents down through the years.

Every club would have moaned.

Over the last decade, every club has moaned, repeatedly.

But none of them – and that includes us – has ever actually done a damned thing about it except blow off some steam in the aftermath of a bad decision or two.

Nobody ever actually seriously proposes reform.

Nobody ever actually demands that changes be made.

So all this moaning, it is tiresome and futile and I just wish they wouldn’t bother unless it’s backed up by serious action, and it never, ever is.

The media will continue to call these things “errors” and “mistakes”, like this will continue to highlight them, clubs will complain … and that’s the extent of it.

In five years we’ll be singing the same song, and in ten years all that’s changed will be the addition of some extra verses.

I see no evidence that the clubs are ever going to get real about it.

I mean, what exactly have they been waiting for up until now?

For things to improve on their own?

Try that if you have a medical condition which would usually require an operation.

See if it goes away by itself.

Is it because clubs are lazy or lack bottle?

It’s certainly not because we’re happy at the current standards, because nobody outside of Ibrox is.

It’s gone on this long, and gotten this bad, because the clubs have allowed it to and we’re the biggest culprits because we should have been leading the way.

It was just one of a number of things we didn’t do which would have made a huge difference to where we are.

The game in this country is a joke, and until we fix it the joke is on us and on teams like us who hope for a they are never going to get.

Apart from Morelos last night Hibs were denied a stonewall penalty, but that’s not a surprise either because the Ibrox club hasn’t had one awarded against them all season and I see no way that’ll change.

I have no sympathy for Hibs or any other club, including ours, which falls victim to the Honest Mistakes over and over again.

Why should I? Why should anybody?

As certain people will push you only up to the level of your tolerance, so too refs and the governing body will walk all over clubs only to the point where the clubs start pushing back.

Until that happens, Morelos can do as he likes, Ibrox never has to fear conceding penalties and people like Jack Ross are just pissing in the wind.

If club chairman had any balls they’d stop and actually do something about this instead of letting themselves and the whole game be cheated in this blatant fashion.
