title: The boonshoft museum new exhibit is out of this world

text:
My kids got an up-close view at some out of this world item at the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery’s new exhibit Beyond Earth: the Exploration of Space that opened at the end of October. The museum is always a great way to spend a few hours, and Beyond Earth is worth the trip.
If you aren’t sure where to find the exhibit when you get to Boonshoft, just look for the giant 6-foot model of the moon on the second level of the museum. You can’t miss it, and my girls, ages 4 and 3, sure didn’t.
The exhibit is contained in a room near the Science on a Sphere theater, and it’s a stunner when you walk in. Huge telescopes dominate the center of the display, reaching way above my girls’ heads and even over mine. Glass cases contain rocks and minerals in all different textures and colors that are found in space.
There is a lot of information to take in but since my kids are little, they were drawn right to an area where you can dress up like an astronaut. NASA helmets, backpacks, gloves and lab coats are all available for the kids to try on. They loved playing with the mission control panel that is covered with dozens of buttons, switches and dials. The kids also can be scientists at a table with puzzles, blocks and more.
A table with space-themed books is great for kids of any age. And while most of the exhibit is behind glass, a 16-pound iron meteorite is just waiting to be touched.
In one corner of the room is the Yaskawa Motoman Dual-Arm Robot. You can watch the robot move blocks from one tray to another, which is way cooler than it sounds. The kids weren’t the only ones mesmerized by its smooth, precise movements.
Beyond Earth will be at the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery through August of next year. I’m glad it will have a long run because we’ll definitely check it out again next time we are there.
About the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery – Located at 2600 DeWeese Parkway, the Boonshoft Museum is open to the public 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Monday-Saturday, and 12 noon-5:00 p.m. on Sunday. Admission is $14.50 for adults, $12.50 for seniors (60+), and $11.50 for children (3-17). Children under 3 and members are free. (937) 275-7431. BoonshoftMuseum.org.

title: Sen sherrod brown to help ohio farmers union kick off 82nd convention

text:
Ohio’s senior U.S. Senator and U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee member, Sherrod Brown, will deliver remarks to the 82nd Annual Ohio Farmers Union Convention on Friday.
Brown is expected to meet and greet OFU members around 11:45 on the convention floor and he’ll speak at 12:20.
“Sherrod Brown has been a friend to Ohio family farmers through thick and thin,” said Ron Sylvester, OFU spokesman.
“His command of agricultural issues and help in our fights in Washington for items like a fair Farm Bill and Country of Origin Labeling are things for which our members appreciate Senator Brown,” Sylvester said.
This being OFU Convention time, the family farm organization that boasts 4,000 members statewide will also discuss and vote on public policy positions for 2016.
National Farmers Union President Roger Johnson will also attend OFU’s convention and address the gathering on national policy issues.
Sylvester said pre-convention policy work has already identified eight proposed “special orders of business” for the group for 2016. Topics include the encroachment of private-sector owned pipelines and rural landowners, agricultural property taxes, water quality and U.S. trade policy.
“Convention delegates will debate the issues and ultimately vote on whether OFU takes particular policy positions for the year. It’s also interesting to see what special orders may come up from the convention floor on the day one of the meeting,” Sylvester said.
In addition to the special orders, OFU will consider changes to state policy in manure and nutrient management as well as the addition of a sentence to policy that states, “Money is not speech and corporations are not people.”
Delegates and convention-goers will have a full slate of presentations regarding farming matters in Ohio including a talk on Edge of Field Research by Dr. Mark Williams of USDA, an overview of current national family farm issues from National Farmers Union President Roger Johnson and an explainer on proposed changes to agricultural property taxes (CAUV).

title: Tempsensor

text:
The DS18B20 is a digital temperature sensor that uses the 1-Wire protocol for communication. It provides accurate temperature readings from -55°C to +125°C with a resolution of 9 to 12 bits. The sensor has three pins: VCC (power), GND (ground), and DATA (signal). It works by converting temperature into a digital signal, which can be read by microcontrollers like Arduino, ESP32, or Raspberry Pi. Multiple DS18B20 sensors can be connected to a single data line, making it ideal for multi-point temperature monitoring in various applications.
How its conected
Each temperature sensor conects to its own port, each port has Ground, 5v and Signal inputs. The sensors have three wires that are usually black (Ground), Red (5v) and Yellow (Signal).
When making your conections ensure the sensor module has no power!
These should be connected to the Sensor module respectivly.
Checking the Code
Setting up the One wire Tempsensors requres inputing the unique Device id into the code, each device has it own ID and for each senor you will need to modify the code as described below. I recomend adding the sensors one by one and changing the code as you go, this way it is easier to know which sensor has which device ID.
Looking at the code below you will need to uncomment the sensors one by one and add the adresses as you go.
Start by leaving all the senosrs commented out with the # at the begining. leaving just the first three lines seen here.
Each sensor port has the following code lines here is an explanation:
Address : This is the unique address of the sensors that you will need to retrive from the logs and input here.
Name: This is the name you give the sensor, you can change it to whatever you like.
Update interval: This is how often a reading is taken, here set to 10 seconds.
Click on the ESP home add-on in the sidebar and you should see your sensor module device, Click on logs and you should see the log load up.... this can sometimes take a while to get the conection but once it loads you should see this.
Here you can see that it has found the sensors and the device IDs are listed here, copy them into the code.
In this example Two sensors are uncommented and active, at the bottom of the log you can see the readings they are giving.
The new ESP home sensors my not apear in your dashboard and nee to be added. To do this go to settings then devices and services.
You should see somewhere on that page the sensor module ESP home. Click on add and then follow the few steps needed to add the integration.
You will only need to do this once, if you already did this when adding another sensor then go directly to your dashboard.
In your dashboard you should now be able to add the cards for these new sensors.
Click on Edit then add card at the bottom right. You can then Select Gauge.
In the next window you can select the Entity if it isnt alread selected, you can give the card a name and change other options here too..
Connection to sensor module
DS18B20 Sensor in Aquarium
Here are a few links to where you can purchase your sensors, click the link depending on your location.
Worldwide link generally takes longer to be delivered but is a little cheaper. Better if you want to bulk order.
Me Personnaly I order most of my stuff from Aliexpress, it normally gets here fairly quickly and tends to be a little cheaper.
If I need something quick I order from amazon.
Full disclosure: some of these links are affiliate links, clicking them and purchasing though my links helps me support the project.

At some point, I am sure that most developers have had an interview were they have been given some sort of a coding challenge. The idea is this - a company wants to hire a new developer. They want said developer to demonstrate the skills necessary for the job. The skills listed on that developers CV are considered to be unverified and so, that company wants to check and see that the developer can actually do what they say they can do. All of this is good so far. With this thinking in mind, companies implement various coding challenges that potential hires need to complete. Some are good and some are bad. In this article, I just want to explore a little bit of the various types of tests that you might come across, and where their short comings are. Then, because I don't want this to just be a rant, I would like to propose a solution that I think best fits the need that interviewers face.

One of the things I've noticed about components is that we developers have a natural tendency of just make them work in the given immediate use case or context.

Siya Kolisi Shares His Journey to Becoming a Better Man and Father
Springboks captain Siya Kolisi has spoken out about the importance of men seeking therapy and opening up about their challenges.
SIYA KOLISI ON THE IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING THERAPY
Men have often been seen as strong figures in society, but they too experience pain and need therapy to cope with life’s challenges.
This perspective is shared by rugby player Siya Kolisi, who emphasised the significance of men addressing their mental health and seeking help when needed.
In an exclusive interview clip shared on X by @TimesSport, the father of four explained that the issue with men is that they face numerous struggles but tend to keep their feelings bottled up. In contrast, women are more open about their emotions.
“A lot of our problems stem from the fact that we, as men, are often messed up and don’t talk as much as women do. We don’t open up or speak out. We struggle to share those kinds of things,” he said.
KOLISI ON WANTING TO DO BETTER
Siya further explained that talking to a therapist is important for him as it allows him to ask meaningful questions.
“It helps me understand that I’m asking real questions because I want to be a better person. I want to be a better father. To do that, I need to know who I am,” he said.
🗣 “A lot of our problems are because we are so messed up as men and we don’t talk as much as women do. We don’t open and speak up. We don’t know how to share those kind of things”
— Times Sport (@TimesSport) January 17, 2025
SIYA AND RACHEL KOLISI’S DIVORCE DRAMA
Siya is going through a divorce, although he has not spoken openly about it. He often shares motivational messages and quotes from the Bible.
He and his wife, Rachel Kolisi, announced their separation in October 2024 through a statement.
“We wanted to share some important news with you. After much reflection and open conversations, we have mutually decided to end our marriage,” read the joint statement.
“This decision comes from a place of love, respect and understanding that this is the best path forward for both of us. While our relationship as a couple is changing, we remain great friends and committed partners in raising our children with the same love and care they’ve always known. We will continue working together on the foundation that means so much to us,” read the joint statement.

title: 2017 post 1760 teacher of the year

text:
Each year the VFW recognizes three exceptional teachers for their outstanding commitment to teaching Americanism and patriotism to their students with the Teacher of the Year competition. Mrs. Janna Radarian, 7th and 8th grade Social Studies teacher at Imagine East Mesa Middle School, was the selected winner for VFW Post 1760’s Smart/Maher VFW National Citizenship Education Teacher Award.
Mrs. Radarian was selected by Ms. Heather Yordy, a fellow 7th & 8th grade educator at Imagine East Mesa Middle School. Ms. Yordy submitted Mrs. Radarian’s name along with providing the following essay on Mrs. Radarian’s behalf:
“Mrs. Janna Radarian, our 7th and 8th grade Social Studies teacher, should be awarded the Smart/Maher VFW National Citizenship Education Teacher Award. I have been teaching for sixteen years and I can truly say that I know of no other educator more deserving of this award.
Mrs. Radarian lives exactly as the requirements for this award described. She cares deeply about our country and cares even more so for our students. She engages our students in deep thinking and discussion about the rich history of our country and the potential for the future. She infuses character education and team-building into her lessons that enable her to teach students about honor, integrity, justice, compassion, and learning from history so that we can make a better tomorrow. Whenever a concern arises with students, she encourages them to form a task force and handle the situation diplomatically. To further demonstrate her excellence as an educator, she has been selected as teacher of the year twice in her tenure at Imagine East Mesa.
In addition to all the amazing work she does inside the classroom, the main reason I believe she deserves this recognition is for her passion for the students to see history in action. This year will be the sixth year that Mrs. Radarian will take our 8th graders for a week-long trip to visit our nation’s capital. With Mrs. Radarian at the helm, we raise funds so that all students who desire to go have the opportunity. I had the privilege of attending the trip last year and it was life-changing for everyone who went. She carefully plans the trip and serves as the tour guide. Her knowledge of the history of our country and her desire to share that with all around her made the trip even more memorable.
There is no question that Mrs. Radarian is deserving of this award. I hope that the committee will take serious consideration into selecting her for this honor. I thank you for your time and your service to our country.”
The VFW Teacher of the Year award contest recognizes three exceptional teachers for their outstanding commitment to teaching Americanism and patriotism to their students.
Each year, a classroom elementary, junior high and high school teacher whose curriculum focuses on citizenship education topics can be nominated for the Smart/Maher VFW National Citizenship Education Teacher Award.

A professional team
Grand Safari is a team of bush guides with solid african hunting experience. All have been guiding foreign hunters for many years and are aware of client’s expectations. They are all qualified as big game professional hunters and can guide you to the most dangerous game Africa has to offer. In accordance with the laws of the country where you will be hunting, Grand Safari will conduct your rifle, bow, handgun, and/or black powder safari.
Christophe Beau is an official measurer for both SCI (Safari Club International) and Rowland Ward, so if you want to register any of your trophies, their official measurements are just a formality away with Grand Safari.
Rowland Ward has a long and prestigious history and tradition in the hunting world. It is now well over a century since the first book containing horn measurements was published. Rowland Ward’s objective was to start a record of trophies which led him to publish Horn Measurements and Weights of the Great Game of the World in 1892. It is this objective that has sustained this book over the years. This was the first work of its kind and remained the only one for many years. It was not designed to be a scientific work but was compiled for sportsmen as well as scientists who were interested in seeing comparable measurements at a glance. The measurements were naturally listed in order of size; this however was not intended to have any competitive connotation.
The Book, the name by which Rowland Ward ’s Records of Big Game is known to all hunters around the world, is the one universally accepted and objective source which establishes what a trophy animal really is, whether you are hunting in Australia or Austria, Brazil or Botswana, China or Czechoslovakia. Rowland Ward ’s Records of Big Game was established over 100 years ago to set down details of game animals as a matter of interest to the Sportsmen.
Safari Club International is the leader in protecting the freedom to hunt and in promoting wildlife conservation worldwide.That’s why SCI Membersare active in more than 100 countries, and why you’ll cherish your involvement with SCI. SCI fights tirelessly to protect the hunting heritage enjoyed by 15 million Americans and 45 million families around the globe. Together, we help every sportsman and sportswoman understand how and why SCI is truly “First for Hunters.” By joining SCI, you join the ranks of hunters spanning more than 100 countries who share the same passion for our hunting heritage and wildlife conservation as you.

Semi Open Cell EPDM Sponge Gaskets
Here at Advanced Seals & Gaskets Ltd we convert and supply a range of high-quality EPDM sponge gaskets, in various densities and grades. One of the EPDM sponges we can offer is a semi open Cell EPDM sponge, sometimes also called a semi closed cell sponge (used in semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets) or semi open cell foam. This material is manufactured in block form, which we can split down into sheets or join together and then split to produce continuous lengths or rolls of materials in thicknesses starting at just 1.5mm from which semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets can be cut.
Our semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets are produced on-site using drawings, samples or measurements provided by our customers, from a simple picture frame gasket to more complex shapes with cut-outs, notches or bolt-holes. Whether it’s a one-off sample or a multi-thousand batch run, we have a machine designed to quickly and accurately produce perfectly formed gaskets every time.
Our semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets can be supplied in a plain finish, laminated in layers to create other thicknesses, laminated to other materials or coated with a choice of self-adhesives and foils prior to the semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets being cut.
What are Semi Open Cell EPDM Sponge Gaskets?
Semi Open Cell EPDM is an extremely soft and flexible grade of EPDM sponge rubber, still manufactured from the chemical components Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), but using a different manufacturing process to create the mixture of open and closed cells throughout the material.
The cell structure of semi open cell EPDM is created in the manufacturing process by physically "bursting" the closed-cell structure in order to create a product that is softer and therefore easier to compress than the more traditional medium or firm grade EPDM sponge rubber, making them great for creating securely fitting semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets.
Semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets sometimes come in the form of a strip or pad but are generally an intricately cut shaped piece of material placed between two surfaces to create a low-pressure seal preventing the leakage of liquids or gas and to seal against the intrusion of dust and debris.

Why use Semi Open Cell EPDM Sponge Gaskets?
Semi-open cell EPDM sponge gaskets offer similar flexibility and compressibility to an open-cell foam, but under compression, they have excellent sealing capabilities more like a closed cell sponge, in order for a gasket to work effectively, it needs to compress and fill the entire space to create pressure and airtight protective seal.
Semi-open cell sponges are durable and offer the excellent ozone and weathering resistance of a standard EPDM, but with a slower and better recovery following compression which is suited to sealing applications.
Semi-Open cell EPDM sponge can be taken as complete sheet or roll form, or as pre-cut strips, suitable for use as a solution to indoor and outdoor sealing applications, providing protection against air, dust and moisture.
Benefits of using Semi Open Cell EPDM Sponge
- Resistance to ozone and UV light
- Soft and compressible
- Combination of open and closed cells
- Excellent acoustic performance
- Good compression set
- Seals against air, dust & moisture
- Converted onsite into a range of thicknesses and products including semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets
The Advantages of using Semi Open Cell EPDM Sponge Gaskets
Semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets are produced using semi open cell EPDM which has a super-soft nature, providing excellent sealing capabilities once compressed. Due to low compression load, the foam can compensate for dimensional deviations in substrates and can, therefore, be applied to both rough, smooth and low energy surfaces. The material offers resistance to Ozone and UV, has a wide working temperature range of -40 ˚C and 100˚C and can be used for sealing against water, dust and air.
Being such as soft and conformable material, semi open cell EPDM sponge gaskets can be used to fill gaps and irregularities between two surfaces and to provide a solution to unwanted rattles, noise, vibrations, to seal against air, gas, dust and liquids, and can also be used to cushion between moving parts to reduce friction and damage to components and equipment, they are often found used within HVAC systems, the automotive industry and as window seals, to name a few.
Grades of EPDM Sponge Available
ASG stock a variety of other grades and densities of EPDM sponge which can call be used to manufacture gaskets each suited to individual applications. These include firm grade, high temperature and semi-open cell varieties:
Medium Density EPDM is available in black or white colour options. EPDM sponge is a strong, synthetic material that has a closed-cell structure making it an ideal material for internal and external sealing applications where minimal compression is required for the material to work as an effective seal. Medium-density EPDM sponge has a density of 90 – 140kg/m3, an operating temperature range of -20°c to +85°c and is flammability tested to FMVSS 302.
High-Temperature EPDM Foam is closed cell and highly flexible even at low temperatures, with an amazing temperature range of -50°c to +128°c. High-Temperature EPDM foam has many excellent mechanical characteristics including thermal and insulation properties, making this material ideal for many industries and applications including HVAC, Refrigeration, Pipeline, Automotive, White goods and Building & construction, etc.
Firm Grade EPDM Foam is a more resilient material that will not compress as much as the standard grades under load, also this material benefits from increased tear strength and suits some of the more demanding applications such as Automotive, White Goods, Marine, Defence, Building and Construction, etc

title: Free home security systems are they really free

text:
With regards to, purported “FREE” home security frameworks region, I’m helped to remember the anecdote of the astute ruler who needed to provide his subjects with the insight of the ages. He called each of the researchers in his realm together and let them know he needed to assemble the insight of the ages. They labored for a year ordering an extraordinary work, volumes and volumes of the best insight the realm had. They introduced it to the ruler and he was intrigued, however he said it was too wireless security systems tremendous, that his subjects could always be unable to peruse everything and requested that they consolidate the insight. They worked and discussed lastly got the “astuteness for the ages” down to only one book. The lord, again was dazzled, yet said it was still excessively lengthy. They worked much harder and got the insight for the ages down to a section, and afterward to a page, a passage, lastly to only one sentence. The lord took a gander at that one sentence lastly announced, “You’ve made it happen! This is genuinely the insight of the ages.” That sentence; “a FREE lunch can’t actually exist!”
With regards to home security frameworks, disregarding what organizations guarantee, “There ain’t no such thing as a FREE lunch!” Sure they let you know that your home security framework is free,(and worth $850) however lets check current realities out. To begin with, what sort of value would you be able to truly hope to get for not exactly the cost of an iPod? What’s more, so far as that is concerned, what level of safety would you be able to get for your family for $100? We’re looking at safeguarding your home, and family and I’ve had clients in the Scranton region get a second statement on a $99 home security framework. Rather than taking a gander at the nature of the boards and the plan of the security framework, they were looking at costs on FREE-$99 frameworks. You need to consider what was his family was worth to him.
Before I go any additionally allowed me to add a disclaimer, and I tell this to my clients as a whole; “The home security framework you can bear is preferable all the time over the one you can’t manage.” That is to say, any home security framework is superior to none by any stretch of the imagination, on the grounds that a robber doesn’t have any idea what you have. On the off chance that you’re on a proper pay or cash is extra close, go for the $100 framework, simply ensure you own the framework and you’re not getting a section level board. Now that that is far removed lets investigate exactly the thing no doubt about it “FREE” or $99.
Whenever somebody is offering you a “FREE” home security framework you can count on it that it isn’t free, and you don’t claim it. In the first place, they normally stow away a $99 establishment charge so they can publicize the home security framework as “FREE”. The greatest mystery about alleged “FREE” security frameworks is that in 9 out of 10 offers you don’t possess the security framework. It is the thing is called, a rented framework. They don’t let you know it’s a rent, however inquire as to whether you own the board. Inquire, “Assuming I drop my checking will your organization eliminate or cripple my home security board?” The methodology behind a rented security framework is on the off chance that you attempt to drop your observing they will take steps to remove the framework from your home (leaving a major opening with wires hanging out). You might have burned through $1000.00 on extra gadgets to safeguard your home, yet when they take out your control board those security gadgets are useless. So your stayed with a security organization you don’t need and can’t bear.

How Saving Sadie Began
Sadie was found bleeding and alone in the mountains of Kentucky. She had been left to die after delivering a litter of puppies, with a bullet hole between her eyes and another in her back. After she was found, she was taken to a veterinarian and then transported to a no-kill shelter in Wisconsin by Starfish Animal Rescue.
Joal saw Sadie while donating blankets to the shelter, and before walking out, she realized she just had to know Sadie's story. A volunteer at the shelter expressed that they didn't think anyone would ever want her. It took no time for Joal to realize she wanted to help and took Sadie to the doctor. After her examination by the first doctor, it was recommended to get a support cart to help her walk because there was a presence of bullets and shrapnel within Sadie. The second doctor expressed that Sadie was incontinent and couldn't walk and that "the right thing should be done." Joal refused to give up and decided she was going to move forward with helping Sadie.
Years of love, therapy, medical treatment, and devotion made a huge difference for Sadie both physically and emotionally. The dog that nobody wanted, became a happy, healthy, and thriving dog who was able to "walk," hop, swim, and play!
Sadie was the inspiration and heart behind the start of Saving Sadie in 2012. It was later formed into a nonprofit to help other dogs with special needs just like Sadie.
Sadie was a dog they thought nobody wanted. They were wrong.

title: 1 criteria to evaluate before investing in web3 startups bugra ayan

text:
In the new episode of Meta<in>vest Podcast series, our community manager Aybars Dorman hosted Buğra Ayan, one of the pioneers of blockchain technology in Turkey. We had a valuable conversation with Ayan, who continues to serve as the founding chairman of the Web3 Technologies Association, on the parameters that should be considered before investing in Web3 startups.
So what exactly is Web3? What distinguishes Web3 investments from investments in traditional projects?
Web3 is a term that refers to the third generation of the internet with blockchain technology. This generation allows users to take full control of their data and activities on the internet. Whereas in previous web generations, data and activities were often controlled by service providers, with web3, users can control access rights to their own data and activities. In this way, users can increase data security and deliver customized experiences.
Web3 startups are projects that use blockchain technology to provide services in financial services, games, social media, online education, healthcare and other areas. For example, in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) projects, users can control their own money, invest and borrow. In this way, the accessibility and decentralization of financial services can become more fair and equal. NFT games, on the other hand, use blockchain technology to guarantee that the content of the games or the items owned by the player have real value and ensure portability between games. Blockchain-based social media platforms guarantee that users' data and activities are stored and controlled in a decentralized manner.
Before investing in Web3 startups, it is important to make sure that the project fulfills a real need. For example, it is necessary to investigate whether a project offers a solution to a real need and whether this solution can actually work. It is also important to make sure that the project's team and consultants have sufficient experience. It is also important to make sure that the project's technological infrastructure is strong. For example, it is important to check that the blockchain platform used by the project is reliable and has the performance to meet its needs. It is also important to make sure that the project has a realistic token economy model. The token economy model explains how the project works and how tokens can be used. It is also important to make sure that the project has a realistic exit strategy. For example, the project should have an exit strategy that explains how it will be marketed, how it will acquire users and how it will build a business model.
Finally, when investing, it is necessary to carefully assess the future potential and potential risks of the project. This requires a careful examination of factors such as the project's whitepaper, the team's past achievements, the project's token economy model and exit strategy. In addition, factors such as whether the project offers a solution to a real need, has a strong technological infrastructure, an experienced team and a realistic exit strategy should also be considered when investing.

title: Pretty storage for ribbon hoarders

text:
I have been stalking this huge glass jar for a while now. Isn't she lovely? I first saw one like this at Crate and Barrel, but didn't want to give up my first born to pay for it. But, a couple months back I happened to stumble upon the VERY same jar at, of all places, Wal-Mart. It was only $12.97, and still I begrudgingly passed it by. I have a rule that I cannot buy anything unless I know what I'm gonna use it for. Everything I bring into this house needs to serve a purpose, not just sit in a closet unused until I find somewhere for it. (p.s...that rule gets broken sometimes) But I digress. Sooooo, most of you know of my unhealthy addiction to ribbon. It started small, but soon got out of control. My ribbon collection was taking up an entire drawer in my kitchen buffet. Now, I have to be honest here...it was really fun to have my very own ribbon drawer...FULL of fabulous ribbon. Sometimes I would just open it up and adoringly look through my stash. I know...I'm weird. But that ribbon drawer's first intention was for some of my extra craft supplies, and they got kicked to the curb pretty quick and became homeless...(cluttering up my bedroom). I live in a smallish house with a family of 6...I have to be extremely creative in my storage solutions.
So my beautiful ribbon found a new home in this very large glass jar, that is basically just asking to be broken by my rough and rowdy children. I'm willing to take that risk...I'm living on the edge, I tell ya!
I still have more to put in the jar...shhhhhhh.
And for a toally random ending to this post...I got this lovely hand towel at Target today for $1.24. It is their Fieldcrest brand and the original price was $9.99. I thought the damask pattern was beautiful and the color matches my bathroom perfectly. I love it when that happens! Anyway, I'm off to bed...gotta get up early for the yard sales!!!
Y'all have a great weekend.

Reasons for Designation
Unenclosed hut circle settlements were the dwelling places of prehistoric
farmers. The hut circles take a variety of forms. Some are stone based and are
visible as low walls or banks enclosing a circular floor area. Others were
timber constructions and only the shallow groove in which the timber uprights
used in the wall construction stood can now be identified; this may survive as
a slight earthwork feature or may be visible on aerial photographs. Some can
only be identified by the artificial earthwork platforms created as level
stances for the houses. The number of houses in a settlement varies between
one and twelve. In areas where they were constructed on hillslopes the
platforms on which the houses stood are commonly arrayed in tiers along the
contour of the slope. Several settlements have been shown to be associated
with organised field plots, the fields being defined by low stony banks or
indicated by groups of clearance cairns.
Many unenclosed settlements have been shown to date to the Bronze Age but it
is also clear that they were still being constructed and used in the Early
Iron Age. They provide an important contrast to the various types of enclosed
and defended settlements which were also being constructed and used around the
same time. Their longevity of use and their relationship with other monument
types provides important information on the diversity of social organisation
and farming practices amongst prehistoric communities.
The unenclosed hut circle near High Carry House is well preserved and retains
significant archaeological deposits.
The monument includes the remains of a single unenclosed hut circle situated
on the flat crest of a ridge above the River North Tyne. The hut circle is
well defined and measures 12m in diameter within an outer wall of stone and
earth 2m wide and 0.3m high. There is a clear entrance on the western side of
the hut circle.
The site of the monument is shown on the attached map extract.
It includes a 2 metre boundary around the archaeological features,
considered to be essential for the monument's support and preservation.

From Our Bureau
NEW DELHI: A supreme Court bench on Monday issued a notice to the Centre on the pleas challenging the third extension granted to Enforcement Director Sanjay Kumar Mishra.
A bench of Justices B R Gavai and Vikram Nath issued notices to the Union of India, Central Vigilance Commission and the ED director on a plea filed by Madhya Pradesh Congress leader Jaya Thakur.
“Issue notice returnable in six weeks,” the bench said.
The plea accused the central government of destroying the “basic structure” of democracy by misusing the enforcement agencies against its political opponents.
“The impugned extension of tenure of Respondent No.2 (Mishra) is destroying the democratic process of our country, hence the present writ petition has been filed by the petitioner which may kindly be allowed in the interest of justice,” the plea said.
The Congress leader said the top court had passed a specific order that no further extension shall be granted to Mishra but the Centre gave him a second extension from November 17, 2021 to November 17, 2022 after which she filed a petition on which a notice was issued.
She said the government has no respect towards the rule of law as a one-year extension has been granted to Mishra from November 18, 2022 despigte pendency of her writ petition.
On November 18, Justice S K Kaul had recused himself from hearing the pleas challenging the amended law allowing extension of up to five years for the ED director, a day after Mishra was given a fresh one-year extension as the chief of the anti-money laundering agency.
A batch of petitions, including those filed by Congress leaders Randeep Singh Surjewala and Jaya Thakur, and TMC’s Mahua Moitra and Saket Gokhale, had come up for hearing before the bench.
The notification issued by the government said the 1984 batch IRS officer will be in office till November 18, 2023.
Mishra, 62, was first appointed the director of the ED for two years on November 19, 2018. Later, by an order dated November 13, 2020, the central government modified the appointment letter retrospectively and his two-year term was changed to three years.
The government promulgated an ordinance last year under which the tenure of the ED and CBI chiefs could be extended by up to three years after the mandated term of two years.
Congress leader Surjewala’s plea challenged the amendment made by the central government to the fundamental concept decided by the apex court in two judgements in the Vineet Narayan and the Common Cause cases on fixed tenure for such officials.
A batch of pleas have been filed on the issue, mostly challenging the Central Vigilance Commission (Amendment) Act, 2021 which provides for extension of the term of ED’s director up to five years.

I have been running a dual-boot system with Win XP and Fedora Core 2 now for some time, with windows installed on the first hard disk and Fedora on the second. My lovely parents were kind enough to buy me a 300GB SATA drive for xmas, so I have set about trying to install xp and fedora core 3 on it.
Note the word trying...
My first step was to install XP on the drive, using the windows xp diskpart program to create an 8GB partition for windows to install on (would be drive c: in windows). After windows was successfully installed on this partion, I then installed core 3, creating the extra partitions that were necessary during the installation using disk druid.
After the install, Fedora boots no problem, but when i try to boot into windows, I am treated with a brief glimpse of the splash screen, before I get a BSOD declaring: UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME.
Could anybody help me with this? One suggestion I have found online is to use the xp recovery console - I have tried booting of the XP CD and going into recovery mode. CHKDSK tells me the partition c: has unrecoverable errors and I cannot read anything from it. The FIXMBR tool also has no effect.
Could somebody please, please help me - I would be willing to undertake a complete re-install of the entire system if people think it would help. My partition scheme is as follows (sda1 is the only partition created by the win xp install prog):
/dev/sda1 - NTFS - 8GB - Windows C:
/dev/sda2 - EXT3 - 100MB - /boot
/dev/sda3 - EXT3 - 10GB - /
/dev/sda4 - Extended partition
/dev/sda5 - FAT32 - 50GB - Windows D: (I hope, haven't tried accessing from win yet)
/dev/sda6 - FAT32 - 15GB - Windows E: (I hope, haven't tried accessing from win yet)
/dev/sda7 - Linux swap - 2GB
/dev/sda8 - Linux LVM
If I recall correctly, when installing Linux and Windows on the same drive (I discourage this installation method; seperate drives works flawlessly), you have to install Linux first, and then install Windows. Otherwise, Windows won't play friendly.
The windows XP disk partition software does not seem to recognise any of the partitions that I have created on the disk, including sda1, which it created itself! Instead, there seems to be only one partition defined, which appears to be the size of the disk itself. The linux fdisk, however, still shows all the partitions correctly.
Should I perform a fresh install of linux, recreating the entire partition table? Or shall I try and install XP into the only space it can see? Won't I just be presented with the same problem once I get to the stage of installing XP again?
I'm just gonna try installing XP anyway, if it don't work, I'll start wiv a fresh install of Fedora, leaving an NTFS partition at sda1 for windows to use for installation. Is it best to create an NTFS partition with the XP diskpart? or is it all good to use the linux fdisk?
If I was in your situation, then I would re-create the whole partition table and just start over, with linux first; that way, you can put XP on the drive as an 'addon' , and Windows should play nicely that way; Windows is not a big fan of change (or so I hear!)
and also remember that window wouldn't boot if you don't set it as the first partition of that drive
i don't know why all of you are saying install linux first, then window
but that might still work as long as the partition for window is the first partition.
Exactly. Windows needs to be the first partition, but installing it first (as seen above) has bad affects. Windows is stubborn, and you have to beat around the bush with it to get it work properly with another OS.
Another thing you might want to note, though, is that there was (and maybe still is) a bug in the Fedora installation that can affect how windows boots after the FC install. I still say install Linux first, even though it wont be on the starting partition.
1. Boot off the XP disk into the recovery console and use diskpart to create an 8GB partition at the beginning of the drive.
2. Boot the Fedora Rescue CD and add the other partitions - final partition table looks like:
/dev/sda1 - 8GB - NTFS
/dev/sda2 - 100MB - /boot
/dev/sda3 - 10GB - /
/dev/sda4 - Win 95 Extended Partition (LBA) (I thought, it might help XP if the extended partition had this ID)
/dev/sda5 - 50GB - FAT32 LBA
/dev/sda6 - 15GB - FAT32 LBA
/dev/sda7 - 2GB - Linux swap
/dev/sda8 - Rest of drive - Linux LVM
3. Installed Fedora Core 3 using the above partition scheme - this works fine.
4. Begin XP install...
And that's where I'm stuck; Windows XP cannot see the partition scheme as above, rather it just sees one partition, which occupies the entire disk and is of an unknown type.
This is practically where I was last night, with a working Fedora install and a non-working XP install, when I tried to re-install XP it showed the same thing, one giant, unknown, partition. When I tried to install to this, it formats the entire drive and corrupts the partition table so it cannot reboot into the next stage of the install - nice.
Looks like I'm either gonna have to go back to using one of my older hard drives, or buying another SATA drive (obviously it won't have to be a 300GB, but it's still an annoyance).
Thanks to everyone for their help so far.
It really shouldn't be this difficult to get two OSes to share a HDD.
i never heard of install linux then window thing before
Did they change something in Fedora comparing to Red Hat Linux?
i thought by installing window first, grub will automatically pickup window header and add a selection in grub.
i am still using red hat linux 9.0, would it work if i just upgrade it using fedora 3 's installation disc?
lol.. i am starting to ask questions now
If grub doesn't pick up the windows header, its no big deal, because you can add this yourself anyhow. Also, I've always been told to install Linux first before installing Windows. I chickened out at installing on the same HDD, so I got two different ones...as I've said, this plan is almost failsafe (as long as you select the drive to install to!)
I'm sorry that this installation isn't going right for you...I wish there was some information I could provide, but it seems that it doesn't work for you either way (Windows first, or Linux first), and this just baffles me!
Oh, and Tricky, don't rush on that FC3 upgrade . . .
Only do that upgrade if you have proper backups ... I've seen lots of reports of hairy problems when doing upgrades, mostly in the #fedora support IRC channel. I don't think all the bugs have been worked out of Fedora Core 3, and by the time they are, Fedora Core 4 will be under development.
Thanks for all the help willie , this whole thing has me baffled too. Think I'm just gonna take the chicken route, and get another hdd tomorrow. Like you say, it seems the easiest way for the two OSes to coexist is for them to be on seperate drives.
If it wasn't for my love of games, I wouldn't need Windows at all!

Is It Possible to Get Implant Treatment in One Day?
Yes, it is possible to receive dental implant treatment in one day in Turkey.
This is called “one–day dental implantation” or “immediate implant loading”. This procedure includes same-day placement of dental implants and temporary crowns, allowing patients to walk away with a new smile in just a few hours.
One-Day Dental Implant Treatment in Turkey: What Is It?
Same-day dental implants is a treatment in which dental implants and temporary crowns are installed immediately after tooth extraction.
This allows patients to get new teeth after just one visit to the dentist.

How Is Same Day Implant Treatment Performed in Turkey?
The dentist examines the patient’s mouth, evaluates the condition of bones and dentition, and discusses treatment options.
The specialist makes an incision and inserts the implants into the jawbone using special instruments. The dentist attaches temporary crowns to them.
Implants take time to integrate with the jawbone in a process known as osseointegration. The dentist will fabricate and place permanent crowns.
One-Day Dental Implant Treatment Benefits in Turkey
Immediate dental implant treatment at VK Smile Studio has the following advantages over traditional method:
Implant Treatment Healing
There may be some discomfort, swelling and bleeding immediately following the procedure, which can be controlled.
During the first week, swelling and discomfort gradually decrease. After two to four weeks, the swelling should completely disappear. Next comes osseointegration, when the implants fuse with the jawbone.
In general, healing after dental implantation takes from several weeks to several months.

Implant treatment in one day usually takes 3 to 6 hours per appointment. However, the total time depends on the number of implants that need to be placed and the surgery complexity.
No, not everyone is suitable for the same-day dental treatment. To be an eligible candidate, patients must meet the following criteria:
- good oral health;
- sufficient volume and density of the jawbone;
- absence of serious systemic diseases;
- non-smokers or ready to quit smoking;
- realistic expectations.
The cost of cosmetic dental treatments in Turkey is cheaper than in the UK, making them more accessible to patients from all over the world.
Patients can combine cosmetic dental treatment with relaxation and sightseeing in Turkey, which is known for its historical and cultural attractions, as well as beautiful natural landscapes.
Immediate dental treatment is usually performed under local anaesthesia, which means the patient is awake, but the area around the implant is numbed.
The lifespan of dental implants placed in one day depends on the patient’s oral health, care of the implants and overall health.
Overall, with proper care and regular checkups, immediate implants can last more than 20 years.
It is important to note that dental implants are not a permanent solution and can fail in some cases, such as due to injury, overuse, or neglect of oral hygiene.

A Gene May Influence How Much Cats Purr and Meow
SUNDAY, June 8, 2025 (HealthDay News) — Why does your cat purr when you pet it — or meow when dinner’s late?
A new study from the Wildlife Research Center at Kyoto University in Japan suggests the answer could be in its genes.
Researchers looked at the androgen receptor gene in 280 spayed or neutered mixed-breed cats.
They compared the DNA to behavior reports from cat owners and then examined how this gene appears in other cat species.
They found that cats with a shorter version of the gene were more likely to purr and meow, especially male cats.
Female cats with the short-type gene, however, showed more aggression toward strangers.
"When we called for participants, we were moved to receive responses from 265 cat owners from across Japan in just a single day, and received kind messages. This reminded us of the strong public interest in cat research," lead author Yume Okamoto, a doctoral student, said in a news release.
Researchers noted that many of the mixed-breed cats in the study were rescued strays. That may explain their increased meowing. Purebred cats, however, are more likely to have the long version of the gene, which may mean less meowing.
The findings also suggest that domestication and selective breeding have influenced how cats communicate with people.
The short version of the gene was found in two wild cat species closely related to domestic cats — the leopard cat and the fishing cat. But only house cats had longer versions of the gene.
The team plans to expand its research to include other wild cat species.
"Through our research, we hope to deepen our understanding of cats and contribute to building happier relationships between cats and humans," Okamoto concluded.
The findings were published May 28 in PLOS One.

With each new contract, Simons demonstrates his commitment to the game and his desire to grow as a footballer.
The signing of the contract was a result of Xavi’s impressive performances in the previous season. His consistent games and high results attracted the attention of the club’s management, which could not miss the opportunity to extend cooperation with such a talented player.
