Auto encoders are neural networks that compress data into a smaller "code," enabling dimensionality reduction, data cleaning, and lossy compression by reconstructing original inputs from this code. Advanced auto encoder types, such as denoising, sparse, and variational auto encoders, extend these concepts for applications in generative modeling, interpretability, and synthetic data generation.
At inference, large language models use in-context learning with zero-, one-, or few-shot examples to perform new tasks without weight updates, and can be grounded with Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) by embedding documents into vector databases for real-time factual lookup using cosine similarity. LLM agents autonomously plan, act, and use external tools via orchestrated loops with persistent memory, while recent benchmarks like GPQA (STEM reasoning), SWE Bench (agentic coding), and MMMU (multimodal college-level tasks) test performance alongside prompt engineering techniques such as chain-of-thought reasoning, structured few-shot prompts, positive instruction framing, and iterative self-correction.
Explains language models (LLMs) advancements. Scaling laws - the relationships among model size, data size, and compute - and how emergent abilities such as in-context learning, multi-step reasoning, and instruction following arise once certain scaling thresholds are crossed. The evolution of the transformer architecture with Mixture of Experts (MoE), describes the three-phase training process culminating in Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) for model alignment, and explores advanced reasoning techniques such as chain-of-thought prompting which significantly improve complex task performance.
Tool use in code AI agents allows for both in-editor code completion and agent-driven file and command actions, while the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standardizes how these agents communicate with external and internal tools. MCP integration broadens the automation capabilities for developers and machine learning engineers by enabling access to a wide variety of local and cloud-based tools directly within their coding environments.
Gemini 2.5 Pro currently leads in both accuracy and cost-effectiveness among code-focused large language models, with Claude 3.7 and a DeepSeek R1/Claude 3.5 combination also performing well in specific modes. Using local open source models via tools like Ollama offers enhanced privacy but trades off model performance, and advanced workflows like custom modes and fine-tuning can further optimize development processes.
Vibe coding is using large language models within IDEs or plugins to generate, edit, and review code, and has recently become a prominent and evolving technique in software and machine learning engineering. The episode outlines a comparison of current code AI tools - such as Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Cline, Roo Code, and Aider - explaining their architectures, capabilities, agentic features, pricing, and practical recommendations for integrating them into development workflows.
Databricks is a cloud-based platform for data analytics and machine learning operations, integrating features such as a hosted Spark cluster, Python notebook execution, Delta Lake for data management, and seamless IDE connectivity. Raybeam utilizes Databricks and other ML Ops tools according to client infrastructure, scaling needs, and project goals, favoring Databricks for its balanced feature set, ease of use, and support for both startups and enterprises.
Machine learning pipeline orchestration tools, such as SageMaker and Kubeflow, streamline the end-to-end process of data ingestion, model training, deployment, and monitoring, with Kubeflow providing an open-source, cross-cloud platform built atop Kubernetes. Organizations typically choose between cloud-native managed services and open-source solutions based on required flexibility, scalability, integration with existing cloud environments, and vendor lock-in considerations.
The deployment of machine learning models for real-world use involves a sequence of cloud services and architectural choices, where machine learning expertise must be complemented by DevOps and architecture skills, often requiring collaboration with professionals. Key concepts discussed include infrastructure as code, cloud container orchestration, and the distinction between DevOps and architecture, as well as practical advice for machine learning engineers wanting to deploy products securely and efficiently.
AWS development environments for local and cloud deployment can differ significantly, leading to extra complexity and setup during cloud migration. By developing directly within AWS environments, using tools such as Lambda, Cloud9, SageMaker Studio, client VPN connections, or LocalStack, developers can streamline transitions to production and leverage AWS-managed services from the start. This episode outlines three primary strategies for treating AWS as your development environment, details the benefits and tradeoffs of each, and explains the role of infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform and CDK in maintaining replicable, trackable cloud infrastructure.
SageMaker streamlines machine learning workflows by enabling integrated model training, tuning, deployment, monitoring, and pipeline automation within the AWS ecosystem, offering scalable compute options and flexible development environments. Cloud-native AWS machine learning services such as Comprehend and Poly provide off-the-shelf solutions for NLP, time series, recommendations, and more, reducing the need for custom model implementation and deployment.
SageMaker is an end-to-end machine learning platform on AWS that covers every stage of the ML lifecycle, including data ingestion, preparation, training, deployment, monitoring, and bias detection. The platform offers integrated tools such as Data Wrangler, Feature Store, Ground Truth, Clarify, Autopilot, and distributed training to enable scalable, automated, and accessible machine learning operations for both tabular and large data sets.
Machine learning model deployment on the cloud is typically handled with solutions like AWS SageMaker for end-to-end training and inference as a REST endpoint, AWS Batch for cost-effective on-demand batch jobs using Docker containers, and AWS Lambda for low-usage, serverless inference without GPU support. Storage and infrastructure options such as AWS EFS are essential for managing large model artifacts, while new tools like Cortex offer open source alternatives with features like cost savings and scale-to-zero for resource management.
Primary technology recommendations for building a customer-facing machine learning product include React and React Native for the front end, serverless platforms like AWS Amplify or GCP Firebase for authentication and basic server/database needs, and Postgres as the relational database of choice. Serverless approaches are encouraged for scalability and security, with traditional server frameworks and containerization recommended only for advanced custom backend requirements. When serverless options are inadequate, use Node.js with Express or FastAPI in Docker containers, and consider adding Redis for in-memory sessions and RabbitMQ or SQS for job queues, though many of these functions can be handled by Postgres. The machine learning server itself, including deployment strategies, will be discussed separately.
Docker enables efficient, consistent machine learning environment setup across local development and cloud deployment, avoiding many pitfalls of virtual machines and manual dependency management. It streamlines system reproduction, resource allocation, and GPU access, supporting portability and simplified collaboration for ML projects. Machine learning engineers benefit from using pre-built Docker images tailored for ML, allowing seamless project switching, host OS flexibility, and straightforward deployment to cloud platforms like AWS ECS and Batch, resulting in reproducible and maintainable workflows.
Primary clustering tools for practical applications include K-means using scikit-learn or Faiss, agglomerative clustering leveraging cosine similarity with scikit-learn, and density-based methods like DBSCAN or HDBSCAN. For determining the optimal number of clusters, silhouette score is generally preferred over inertia-based visual heuristics, and it natively supports pre-computed distance matrices.
The landscape of Python natural language processing tools has evolved from broad libraries like NLTK toward more specialized packages such as Gensim for topic modeling, SpaCy for linguistic analysis, and Hugging Face Transformers for advanced tasks, with Sentence Transformers extending transformer models to enable efficient semantic search and clustering. Each library occupies a distinct place in the NLP workflow, from fundamental text preprocessing to semantic document comparison and large-scale language understanding.

Studio manager of Rasunda was relegated to Vilhelm Bryde during 1923. Author Forsyth Hardy Gaines an account, "His influence was most clearly seen in 'Damen med Kamelioarna', a static, theatrical adaptation of the Camille theme, directed by Olof Molander. The film derived some distinction from the delicately composed interiors...a reversion to a theatrical style of filmmaking quite foreign to the Sjostrom-Stiller."
For those familiar with the history of Danish Silent Film Lady of the Camellias, (Kameliadamen, Camille) adapted from the novel by Dumas, was filmed by Viggo Larsen, who starred in front of the camera as well as creating from behind it, as he was often won't to do, the film also starring Oda Alstrup, Robert Storm Petersen and Helga Tonnesen. It was produced by Nordisk Film and Ole Olsen and it's cinematographer was Axel Graatkjaer Sorensen.
The Divine Bernhardt that was immortalized as a model for Alphonse Mucha exists, the plays that Louis Mercanton adapted for the screen, Jeanne Dore (1915, three reels), starring Madame Tissot with actress Sarah Bernhardt and shown in the United States by Bluebird Photoplays, and Adrienne Lecouvveur (1913, two/three reels), do not, and belong to the province of Film Preservation, if not Lost Films, Found Magazines, a vital part of From Stage to Screen, the transition of the proscenium arc to visual planes achieved by film editing and composition having been relegated to desuetude. By all accounts there still is a copy of Sarah Bernhardt performing Camille on film.
Camille (J. Gordon Edwards, 1917, five reels) starring Theda Bara is, like The Divine Woman (Victor Seastrom), a lost silent film, there being no surviving copies of it. Motography not I coincidentally revealed, "Theda Bara in a sumptuous picturization of Camille is the latest announcement of William Fox to the public...Theda Bara as the unhappy Parisian girl who sacrifices herself on the altar of convention, has surpassed all her previous work. This production...Parisian life is followed in every detail so that the atmosphere of the story fits admirably with the acting in it." Surepetitiously, Motion Picture News used the exact same wording, it concluding with, The tears it caused were genuine and the emotions it stirred were deep." J. Gordon Edwars directed Theda Bara in several films for the Fox Film Corporation during 1917 which are now lost, with no surviving copies, including the films "Cleopatra" (ten reels), "Heart and Soul" (five reels), "Her Greatest Lobe" (five reels) and "The Rose Blood" (six reels), as well as the lost films "Under the Yoke" (five reels), "When a Woman Sins" (seven reels) and "The Forbidden Path" from 1918.
Most significant may be that the script to Poor Violetta (Arme Violetta, 1920) was written by Hans Kraly, who later emigrated to Hollywood; directed by Paul L. Stein, it was released by Paramount as The Red Peacock, with the alternate title Camille, purportedly only loosely an adaptation of the novel by Dumas. The film is thought to be lost, with no surviving copies. in her autobiography Memories of a Star, actress Pola Negri describes filming in Europe, "Even before Hemmingway and Fitzgerald made The Lost Generation internationally famous, it was a city intent on losing itself. Jazz was beginning to become a rage in all the little chic clubs.... When production began on Camille, I was ready for it. Nightlife had served its purpose. The mixture of wild gaiety and sense of loss which had been so much part of the last few weeks gave me fresh insights into the character I was to portray. Certainly, the doomed tubercular Marguerite Gautier would not have felt out of place in Berlin at the dawn of the twenties. My sojourn among those people who lived on the opposite side of the clock had been a useful and pleasant interlude, but it was now over." Negri, who would leave for Warsaw after filming Camille had been writing about a city that would soon embrace Expressionism and where Asta Nielsen that year had been filming an adaption of Hamlet as a Silent Film.
In the United States The Film Daily during 1922 reviewed the film by claiming it had "No Visible Drawing Power in this Except for Sensation". While giving a brief synopsis it wrote, "as for the story, it is certain to offend the decency of some and practically everyone with any sense of refinement. There isn't anything very tasteful or entertaining in this depiction of a series of liaisons even though you can hardly blame the girl for running away from her drunken step father...Another matter which you will do well to consider in connection with this picture is the type of patron you cater to." Their sentiment was echoed by Exhibitor's Herald magazine, who saw Pola Ngeri in the film as depicting a woman who was " that of the tennis-ball tossed lightly from one gentleman's racquet to another" to which it appended, " This is made abroad and their standards are not ours."
Using a still where the two lovers were in embrace on a couch, reminiscent of John Gilbert and Greta Garboin Flesh and the Devil, captioned with "Armand pours out his love to the adored Camille, Picture Play magazine during 1927 introduced the nine reel film starring Norma Talmadge and Gilbert Roland as "the latest screen version of the Dumas' masterpiece." MPotion Picture magazine noted that it was a film in which Norma Talmadge would wear her hair bobbed, the studio having reported to the magazine that it would be an adaptation located in the then present day Paris of Gerturde Stien, Fitzgerald and Hemmingway and that the cast of the film would also include Lilyan Tashman. Photoplay reviewed the film with,"Norma Talmadge shifted the background to the present day. This change seems to have affected the story itself but slightly. 'Camille has one fault. it is too long...Rather actory but worth IT. Super-sexy stuff this." Amateur Movie Makers magazine looked at Niblo's camerawork during 1927, noting that the film as having a Titleless Start. "Eliminating the usual series of opening titles, 'Camille' opens with a series of swift dissolves which move from the general to the specific, from a shot down to a mass of moving umbrellas, to a salient bit of portraiture of the auctioneer hawking Camille's effects."
The 1915 screen version of Camille was scripted by Frances Marion. the five reel film starred Clara Kimbal Young under the direction of Albert Cappellani. There is thought to be a lost film from 1912 starring actress Gertrude Shipman that was based on Dumas' work possibly one reel in legnth.

SCIENCE AND EXPLORATION
Space activities rely strongly on an innovation component, pushing to be at the edge of scientific and technological development.
Space sciences and space exploration are hard to separate, as they share a symbiotic relationship where one pushes the other to evolve, and through which we can discover more about our planet, the universe around us and increase our quality of life.
The need to discover and understand the surrounding environment is inherent to human nature. Since the beginning of times, Humanity looks to the sky to find answers to fundamental questions, about where we come from and where we are going. Today it is still no different: space represents a great unknown that asks to be unveiled.
Space Science and Exploration inspire the younger generations to follow STE(A)M related fields, contributing to motivating the future active members of society for highly qualified jobs. This includes future scientists, engineers, physicists, lawyers, architects, and others, thus helping to build human capital and enriching society in the long term. Through the dimension of Space Science, Portugal wishes to strengthen the collaboration of the Portuguese scientific community within itself, with international partners and with industry, to promote advances in the understanding of the universe, in Earth Sciences and Space Exploration.
In November 2019, during Space19+, Portugal contributed 47.4 M Euro to the Mandatory Activities of ESA, which include the Basic Activities and the Scientific Programme., Portugal also subscribed 3M Euro to PRODEX, intending to foster and support Portuguese participation in ESA scientific missions, such as PLATO (Planetary Transits and Oscillation of Stars) and ARIEL (Atmospheric Remote-sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large-survey).
During Space19+ Portugal also contributed 1.5M Euro to the European Exploration Envelope Programme, intending to foster Portuguese industrial participation in the development technical equipment and above all foster the exploitation of microgravity research for non-space sector R&D and product developments.
Indeed, Scientific and Space Exploration activities with an immediate impact on the quality of life on Earth is the use of microgravity for the development of pharma products or specialised manufacturing process. Some of the microgravity commercialisation activities that are already being studied and where interest is increasing among different sectors are molecular biology, gravitational biology, fluid physics, human physiology and fundamental physics, between others.
With this in mind, during Space19+, Portugal also subscribed 1M Euro for the Space Rider Programme, intending to nurture the exploitation of the orbital spaceplane by promoting R&D of products under microgravity conditions.
Space exploration relies strongly on robotics and autonomy. Rovers used for exploration missions can now be independent of constant instructions sent from Earth and are capable of advanced navigation, localisation and navigating in challenging environments, also increasingly relying on Artificial Intelligence to complete necessary tasks.
The intensification of the exploration and exploitation of space in Low Earth Orbit and beyond raises the need for sustainability, drawing the attention to the management of resources in space, namely recycling, manufacture and utilisation of in-situ resources, which promise to be some of the next technological challenges in space and open up new markets.
Given the limited capacity to lead large exploration missions, Portugal must grasp opportunities to strengthen acquired competences; but complemented with:
- invest in in-situ resource utilisation and in-space manufacturing opportunities
- strengthening of the scientific “mining” of exploration activities;
- stimulating commercial activities built on synergies between space and non-space sectors such as sea/deep-sea sectors or Earth mining sectors;
- raising awareness of commercial opportunities for end-users and facilitate their entrance in the space landscape;
Research in space science and exploration (as well as other space-related subjects) is supported by Portugal Space and can be conducted through PhD scholarships. Portugal Space will be launching a call for PhD scholarships funded by FCT where students can apply to develop their space-related research projects, including Space Science, Exploration Sustainability and in-situ resource utilisation.
SciSpacE (Science in Space Environment) and ExPeRT (Exploration Preparation, Research and Technology) are transversal programmatic lines within ESA European Exploration Envelope Programme 2 (E3P2) of interest to Portugal, as these allow to perform scientific research in simulated and real space environments (e.g. microgravity research) as well as the preparation and development of new technologies for future missions. These activities are essential for the four cornerstone mission campaigns of E3P2: Humans in LEO (Low Orbit Earth), Humans beyond LEO, Lunar robotic exploration and Mars robotic exploration.

First blog entry from the planned series describing how fun it was to prepare my last POUG Workshop 2020 session.
Interesting example of using Jupiter Notebook to visualize performance data gathered from Solaris operating system. In this particular case (real scenario) it allowed us to confirm the issue we were suspecting was related to Solaris scheduler interfering with processor pools and Solaris zones.
I find Jupyter Notebook useful to process, analyze and visualize performance data from operating system, database or any other source. Hopefully my time allows showing some examples of it soon. For now I’m describing how to prepare environment for such analysis – and it involves docker again.
My next post about YUM on Exadata is about creation of local ULN mirror containing Exadata baseline repositories together with generic Oracle Linux channel.
I cover a case when there is no Oracle Linux machine in the environment – so such mirror needs to be created on non-Oracle machine. Specifically I show possibility to use docker image for this purpose.
In the second post I install and upgrade some packages using Oracle public YUM repository.
As a result my database node is no longer consistent with baseline of my firmware.
Let’s find out what will happen when I attempt to install new firmware on it.
First post of the series about usage of YUM on Exadata.
Does Exadata run standard Oracle Linux and therefore one can use YUM generic repositories?
How to do this safely without breaking dependencies or risking problems during next patching window.

Strengthening Bonds: 5 Signs Your Family Could Benefit from Therapy
Family is meant to be a source of support, love, and security. However, even the strongest families can face challenges that strain relationships and hinder emotional well-being. Recognizing when to seek professional help is crucial for restoring harmony and fostering a healthier family environment.
1. Persistent Communication Breakdowns
Effective communication is the cornerstone of any strong relationship. When family members frequently misunderstand each other, engage in constant arguments, or avoid conversations altogether, it can create a toxic environment. Family therapy provides a safe space to develop healthier communication patterns, enabling members to express themselves openly and listen actively to one another.
2. Escalating Conflicts and Resentment
Ongoing conflicts that remain unresolved can lead to deep-seated resentment and emotional distance. If disagreements become more intense or frequent, it may indicate underlying issues that need professional intervention. Therapists can help families identify the root causes of conflicts and work collaboratively to find constructive solutions.
3. Life Transitions Causing Stress
Major life changes such as divorce, remarriage, relocation, or the loss of a loved one can disrupt family dynamics and create emotional turmoil. Family therapy can assist in navigating these transitions by providing support and strategies to adapt to new circumstances while maintaining strong familial bonds.
4. Behavioral Issues in Children or Adolescents
Children and teens often express their struggles through behavioral changes, academic difficulties, or emotional withdrawal. When these issues persist, it may reflect deeper family-related concerns. Incorporating family therapy can lead to a 40% greater improvement in children's behavior compared to individual therapy alone.
5. Substance Abuse or Mental Health Challenges
The impact of substance abuse or mental health disorders extends beyond the individual to affect the entire family. Family therapy offers a platform to understand these challenges, improve coping mechanisms, and rebuild trust and support within the family unit.
Why Family Therapy Works
Statistics underscore the effectiveness of family therapy:
Over 75% of families experience significant improvement when engaging in family therapy.
Families dealing with adolescent behavioral issues show a 70–90% success rate when participating in family therapy.
Approximately 90% of families report better communication and healthier relationships post-therapy.
These outcomes highlight the transformative potential of family therapy in addressing a wide range of familial challenges.
Taking the First Step Toward Healing
If your family is facing challenges that seem insurmountable, seeking professional help is a proactive step toward healing and reconnection. Long Island Behavioral Health offers compassionate and effective family therapy services tailored to your unique needs. Their team of experienced therapists is dedicated to helping families navigate difficulties and strengthen their bonds.


title: 5 reasons you might want a non conforming mortgage loan

text:
However, there may be times when a “non-conforming” loan, or non-qualified mortgage, may fit your situation better. They may not receive government guarantees, but here are five reasons why a non-conforming mortgage could be helpful to you.
Because it is non-conforming, this type of loan can be tailored to fit the needs of the borrower with fewer rules. - Credit Leeway
Conforming loans require a minimum credit score of 620 for most mortgages, but there is no credit score requirement for non-conforming. Credit score will be just one factor considered as part of the entire financial picture. - More Home-type Options
Conforming loans are not available for all types of homes. Non-conforming mortgages can cover everything, as long as the lender feels it make good fiscal sense. This could include non-warrantable condos and co-ops, multi-unit condos, timeshares, assisted living units, manufactured homes that have been moved from their original location. In fact, for many of these situations, non-conforming loans are the only option. - Alternate Ways to Prove your Income
With conforming loans, income verification is essential, especially because it factors into the debt-to-income ratio. Both of these factors determine whether you’ll qualify for a mortgage. With a non-conforming loan, however, the lender can verify your income in a non-traditional way like bank statements, or the income verification can be waived altogether in some cases. Instead of relying on your income as a decided factor, non-conforming loans can consider your current home equity, your cash flow, and assets. This often works better for self-employed buyers and those with seasonal commissions. - Lower Down Payments
Some government-backed loans are actually considered non-conforming, including VA, USDA, and FHA mortgages. These cater to first-time and lower-income buyers and have minimal or even no-down payment requirements. However, if you are applying for a jumbo loan, one with a loan amount above the conforming limit, you will likely be required to make a down payment of at least 10% to 15%.
You may have to pay higher interest rates or contribute to private mortgage insurance with many of these non-conforming loans, but they might be the easiest way for you to qualify for homeownership. And if your financial picture looks more traditional down the road, you can always refinance into a lower-cost conforming mortgage.
Call us today and we can help you understand all of the options that we offer.

Book Review of What’s New Inu? One Wild Critter
The Children’s Book Review
What to Expect: Forest life, animals, nature, biodiversity, and genetic science.
Delightfully blending education and adventure, Nicci Belter’s What’s New Inu? One Wild Critter is a charming addition to the early reader genre, seamlessly combining fiction and non-fiction in a satisfying narrative.
In this second installment of the Ready to Read with Inu series, readers follow the outdoor adventures of Inu, a lovable dog, as she embarks on a quest to discover the mysterious animal residing in her cabin’s attic. Beginning with the intrigue of guessing what kind of animal could be making noise in the attic, the narrative skillfully weaves simple facts about the chickaree (“the king of squirrels”), providing an informative and engaging experience.
The story not only captivates young readers but also serves as an educational tool, focusing on first-grade high-frequency words and introducing new vocabulary. Belter’s thoughtful incorporation of words with suffixes (-ing, -er) ensures that children encounter and repeat these words throughout the story, promoting literacy development and fluency.
Another notable strength of the book is its thematic emphasis on introducing young readers to the concept of predators, expanding their understanding of the natural world.

Hello everyone! I am here to introduce myself and give you all the long awaited updates. The last couple months have been an absolute whirlwind physically and emotionally as we chose to close the Seattle shop and botanic kitchen. Thank you to everyone who helped liquidate the store and show your support during our closing sale. We are so grateful that we were able to donate a lot of our herbs to the wonderful @hilltop_urban_gardens to support their Black Birthworkers Initiative, as well as @canoejourneyherbalists who both do so much for their communities (go support them!).
My name is Khai Bhagwandin, I am licensed acupuncturist and herbalist who has been working with Ivy this past year and I will be taking over Blendily! Yes, Blendily lives on! Same values with a fresh new beginning. I have moved the botanic kitchen to my family's farm, Shady Grove Farm in Onalaska, WA. This is where most of our herbs will be grown on site. During our transition there will be limited products available but we hope to get production going more steadily this spring. Until then, our website will be open for orders with the remaining product and we hope to release some small batch creations along the way!
I have been practicing TCM in Ballard WA since 2018 and am passionate about natural, holistic beauty and physical medicine. I will be integrating some traditional herbal formulations and knowledge into our new products. I will still keep the classics like our facial serums and will be taking requests for specific products that you love!
We miss our Ballard kitchen but we are so excited for the next phase of Blendily!

Saudi Arabia is fast becoming the Riviera of the Middle East, drawing a sophisticated in-crowd seeking a stylish and authentic destination. Its 3,400 km low-lying coastline is populated by stunning reefs and sandy islands spectacularly backed by hazy mountains and the kingdom is likely to surprise and enthral first-time visitors in equal measure. A temperate climate that is perfect during winter months, national parks galore and vast ochre desert plains which segue into the cooler climes of Saudi’s mountainous north mean that this beautiful land positioned on the eastern Red Sea coastline has something to suit all tastes. The diverse topography is ideal for hikers and numerous archaeological sites offer a fascinating blend of history and beauty. Enjoy the contrasts of Jabal Sawda in Asir National Park, Saudi’s tallest peak which soars over 3,000 metres, as well as the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Al Ahsa Oasis, which dates back 6,000 years and meanders through picturesque springs, wells, canals and farmland.
Beaches score highly too, with Qatif, Ras Tanura and Jubail sure to charm visitors with their tranquillity, natural beauty and diverse marine life. Farasan Al Kabir beach is home to some of the country’s best diving, with mesmerising crystal clear waters and copious underwater vegetation creating a true aquatic paradise. The fact that Saudi Arabia remains one of the globe’s last relatively undiscovered territories as far as dive tourism is concerned only adds to its allure. With the kingdom currently undergoing a $13 billion tourism development incentive in the Red Sea’s coastal Aseer region, the lure of pristine beaches, stretches of vibrant coral untouched by bleaching and world-beating dive sites will ensure Saudi Arabia enjoys far greater exposure in coming years.
Riyadh Riyadh’s sand dunes offer sandboarding and dune bashing as well as more spiritual pursuits like kashta, a true Arabian experience which invites travellers to sleep beneath the stars. The desert lakes, surrounded by lush vegetation and dramatic red sand, are also not to be missed.
Dammam A modern metropolis which boasts endless stunning views of the Arabian Gulf, Dammam is also a thriving arts, sports and entertainment hub with lush green parks, scenic waterfronts and glorious sandy beaches. Half Moon Bay So named for its distinctly lunar outline, Half Moon bay boasts a popular, family friendly shallow cove ideal for learning to scuba dive. Al Khobar waterfront will entrance the whole family with its dancing fountains, landscaped gardens, historic water tower and remarkable King Fahd Causeway as well as copious dining choices and a thriving café culture.
Jeddah Jeddah enjoys a reputation as one of the most lavish ports in the kingdom and is particularly famous for its legendary seafood and luxe beach clubs. A buzzing cosmopolitan hub which hosts the Red Sea International Film Festival, the city’s traditional heart of Al Balad remains a magical historic quarter, offering a voyage of cultural discovery for visitors.
Haql The northern region of Tabuk is home to some of the best natural beaches and enchanted islands in the world – there are 150 isles dotted off the 1000 km coast of the Arabian Gulf. Little wonder then that Haql, revered for its powdery white sands, has been christened the ‘Maldives of Saudi Arabia’. An added advantage is the halfsunken shipwreck which is easily visible from its wild and untouched stretch of shore, backed by the majestic Sinai mountains.
Umluj A popular haunt for nature lovers, Umluj boasts natural springs, non-existent consumerism and turquoise waters which abound with diverse marine life and migrating bird populations fleeing colder climes. Large ships and ferries are banned to preserve the delicate ecosystem.
Numan Island Just south of Duba, Numan Island is another hidden gem – a dramatic sandy isle with a deep bay which is well-protected from prevailing north-westerly winds and thus perfect for a beach set up.

Insects, algae, other microorganisms, and even food waste are providing new alternative protein feeds for farm animals—while protecting the planet. These feeds are made from sustainable sources like insects, algae and other microorganisms, and even food waste. They use fewer natural resources, like land and water, and create less pollution compared to traditional options, such as soy and maize. By replacing traditional feeds, alternative protein feeds can help reduce deforestation, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and save water. Real-life examples include insects grown on food waste fed to chickens and fish, algae used in fish farming, and microorganism-based proteins providing nutrition in areas where crops are hard to grow. Challenges remain, including ramping up production and convincing farmers to switch to new feeds. Once the final hurdles are overcome, alternative protein feeds could make farming more efficient and better for the planet.
The World Needs Greener Ways To Feed Farm Animals
Farm animals like chickens, cows, and pigs provide much of the food people eat every day, including eggs, milk, and meat. But feeding all these animals has a big impact on the planet. As the global population grows, so does the demand for animal protein, putting even more pressure on natural resources like land, water, and energy.
Traditional animal feeds, such as soy, maize, and wheat, require massive amounts of these natural resources to grow. For example, nearly 80% of the world’s soy production is used to feed animals. This high demand often leads to deforestation, as forests are cleared to make way for soy farms. Cutting down trees not only releases carbon stored in the soil and in plants but also reduces the planet’s ability to absorb CO2 (a greenhouse gas), making climate change worse. Growing feed crops also requires a lot of fertilizer. When it rains, excess fertilizer can wash into rivers and oceans, harming fish and other wildlife. These practices reduce biodiversity and damage ecosystems, making it clear that we need greener ways to feed farm animals. But how?
Emerging Technology: Alternative Protein Feeds
Alternative protein feeds could be a way to provide animals with the nutrition they need while using fewer natural resources and creating less environmental harm. These new types of animal feeds are made from sustainable resources, such as insects, algae, single-cell proteins, and food waste. Alternative protein feeds are high quality and nutritious, and are often created using materials that would otherwise go to waste or materials that require much less land, water, and energy to produce than traditional feeds do.
One example is algae, specifically microalgae—tiny, single-celled plant-like organisms that grow in water and are packed with protein, fats, and other nutrients. Microalgae are cultivated in tanks or ponds, where they absorb CO2 and grow rapidly, making them a great option for animal feed . Other microorganisms, like bacteria, yeast, and fungi, can also be used as sources of single-cell proteins. Like algae, these organisms can be grown in controlled environments, such as special tanks called bioreactors where temperature and nutrients are carefully managed—using minimal land and water. Some systems even use waste gases, like methane or CO2, to grow these microorganisms, turning pollution into valuable protein—a great option for regions where farming traditional feed crops is challenging (To learn more about turning waste gases into useful products, read this article in this collection).
Tech to the Rescue
Alternative protein feeds are already being tested and used on farms around the world (Figure 1). Global production is still small compared to soy and maize, but growing interest and investment are helping to expand this field [2, 3].
For example, black soldier fly larvae are being grown on food waste, like leftover fruits and vegetables from restaurants or farms . These insects are rich in protein and fat, making them a healthy feed for chickens, pigs, and fish. Feeding these insects to farm animals provides high-quality nutrition while also recycling food waste that would otherwise end up in landfills. Every year, millions of tons of uneaten food are thrown away—like fruit peels, vegetable scraps, and leftovers. When food waste ends up in landfills, it decomposes and releases methane, a powerful greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change. Researchers are also exploring ways to turn waste like fruit peels, orange pulp, and vegetable scraps directly into animal feed .
Algae-based feeds are becoming popular, particularly in aquaculture, as a high-protein alternative to traditional fish feed. Algae grows quickly in water and, like plants, it absorbs CO2 during photosynthesis. This is a good thing—algae turns CO2 into the energy and nutrients it needs to grow! So, growing algae can reduce CO2 in the atmosphere, which helps to fight climate change—making it an eco-friendly choice for farmers raising fish or shellfish. Some types of algae also contain healthy fats that are essential for fish growth and well-being. Farmers are starting to use algae to supplement the diets of other farm animals, too.
Single-cell proteins, made from microbes like bacteria and yeast, are also being used as animal feed. These microbes are very easy to grow in tanks under controlled conditions and the proteins they produce can be turned into a powder that can then be mixed into animal feed, just like soybean meal. This is especially helpful in areas where traditional feed crops—like corn or soy—are hard to grow because of dry weather, poor soil, or lack of farmland. By using microbes instead of crops, farmers in these areas can still provide animals with the protein they need to stay healthy.
Alternative protein feeds can be customized for different types of farming. Fish farmers might rely on algae-based feed, while poultry farmers could use insect-based feed. This flexibility lets farmers choose the best option for their animals and farming methods, helping them save money and reduce their environmental impact.
Big Challenges, Bigger Opportunities
Alternative protein feeds could make farming much better for the planet, but there are still challenges to solve. One big challenge is producing enough of these feeds to supply farms worldwide. For example, growing insects like black soldier fly larvae works well on a small scale, but creating enough to feed millions of animals will require new farming systems, and tools and facilities to support large-scale production. Similarly, growing algae or single-cell proteins in large amounts can be expensive and difficult, especially without enough clean water or renewable energy.
Scientists are also studying how alternative feeds affect animals, to make sure these substances are safe, nutritious, and work well in a variety of farming systems. This includes testing how well animals grow on these diets, checking the animals’ health, and making sure the nutrients in the new feeds meet their needs. More research will help fine-tune these feeds for various species, such as chickens, fish, or cows, and for different environments, like farms in hot or cold climates or places where water or space is limited.
Another challenge is convincing farmers to try these new feeds. Crops like soy and maize have been used for a long time, so switching to something new might seem risky. Scientists and companies are working to show that alternative feeds are not only better for the environment but also safe, healthy for animals, and affordable. Clear rules and standards are needed to ensure these feeds are good for both animals and humans.
Despite these challenges, alternative protein feeds offer exciting possibilities. By reducing the need to grow traditional crops, these feeds can help save forests, use less water, and lower greenhouse gas emissions. They create opportunities for new farming ideas, like raising insects on food waste or growing tanks of single-cell proteins. These new methods could create jobs and help local communities while making farming greener and more efficient. With teamwork and new ideas, alternative protein feeds could help feed the world while protecting the planet.
Deforestation: ↑ Cutting down large areas of forests, often to make space for farms or buildings, which harms the environment by releasing carbon and reducing habitats for wildlife.
Alternative Protein Feeds: ↑ New types of animal feed made from sustainable sources like insects, algae, or food waste, designed to use fewer natural resources and help the environment.
Sustainable: ↑ Using resources in a way that protects the planet and ensures they will be available for future generations.
Single-Cell Proteins: ↑ Proteins made from tiny organisms, like bacteria or algae, that can be used as food for farm animals.
Bioreactors: ↑ Special tanks or machines where microbes, algae, or other organisms are grown under controlled conditions to produce useful materials, like proteins or fuels.

California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) System
Each spring, most students in California participate in the statewide testing program, which is the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) System. The tests in the CAASPP System provide information to teachers, parents/guardians, and students about students' progress and readiness for college and career. In grades 3-8 and grade 11, most students take the Smarter Balanced online tests for English language arts/literacy (ELA) and mathematics. However, students who have a significant cognitive disability (as designated in their Individualized Education Program, also known as "IEP") are eligible to take the California Alternate Assessments (CAAs).
California students in grades 5 and 8 will take the online CAST Science test, which is aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards. For high school, the CAST will be administered to students in grade 11 and 12.
The state no longer mails home student score reports. Your student's electronic Student Score Report (SSR) can be obtained by logging into your Parent Portal Aeries account.
Schools in the Tustin Unified School District establish their own CAASPP assessment dates within the months of March through May. For specific testing dates at your child's school, please contact the school office.
The California Department of Education (CDE) has developed several resources to help students and parents understand the grade expectations of the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments.
- The Parent Guides to the Smarter Balanced Assessments (in English and Spanish) are posted on the CDE’s CAASPP web page, under Students and Parents. Separate guides have been developed for each of the three grade spans tested: grades 3–5, grades 6–8, and grade 11. Each guide explains the grade-level expectations for students in ELA and mathematics and provides sample test items.
- The practice and training tests, which can be found on the CDE’s Smarter Balanced Practice and Training Tests web page, can help parents and students experience the type of test items that students will encounter on the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments. Answers to the practice test and scoring rubrics for the performance tests are posted on the Test Administrator (TA) Resources for the Smarter Balanced Practice and Training Tests web page.
- Smarter Balanced Parents and Student Page Provides access to fact sheets, questions and answers, and resources in English and Spanish.
- Understanding the CAASPP Student Score Reports Page provides guides to help interpret the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) student score report.
CAASPP Parent Exemption Information
Pursuant to California Education Code Section 60615, parents/guardians may annually submit to the school a written request to excuse their child from any or all of the CAASPP assessments.
If you have any questions regarding your child's participation in statewide testing, please contact your school principal.

Davenport Clubhouse, 4' x 5', oil on canvas, Laurel Daniel © 2020
Austin Country Club Commission - SOLD
(If you follow me on social media or get my newsletter, you have seen these photos already. Please forgive my repetition, but I feel compelled to share this story here as well, since it represents a big chunk of my time and energy over the last months!)
Here is a little bit of the story...
I was commissioned last September to do this 4' x 5' painting for the Austin Country Club (ACC), in Austin, TX. So I cleared the decks and worked on it fairly exclusively until the end of the year. Though it was not a secret endeavor, I never feel comfortable sharing much about a commission until it's totally finished and approved. On February 4th, it was installed and unveiled (literally) at a champagne reception in the main lobby of the club. Such fun!
My painting is part of a larger project that highlights and celebrates the club's history. The master plan includes a painting of each of the three clubhouses from which ACC has operated in its 100+ years. Mine depicts the current clubhouse, while the earlier two locations were interpreted by Texas artists Tom Evans and Dan Blagg. There is a fourth painting, a portrait by Carol Ivey, of three of the club's most famous golf members (Harvey Penick, Tom Kite, and Ben Crenshaw.)
It is a huge thrill and honor for me to be a part of this expansive and local project! Many thanks to the ACC board and to all who made this happen!
A real "unveiling"... my first ever! It was actually a little tricky to get that sheet off without yanking the painting right off the wall. As you can see, I did get some help to prevent that!
The classic grinning-artist-in-front-of-painting-shot (a must have)! ;)

Such a pretty setting, right? I am simply delighted!

Engaging in the SHA process provides the following benefits:
- Increased visibility of public health within the state;
- Development of advocates for public health;
- Creating a healthy state and better quality of life;
- Proactively acting to improve health;
- Stronger public health infrastructure;
- Development of stronger partnerships; and
- Strengthening of public health leadership as system partners take ownership of the role they play in the state's public health system.
How Will the Assessment Help Improve Public Health?
Once priority health needs and their root causes are identified, a plan to address those needs will be developed. With the full public health system moving in the same direction, efforts will be maximized to impact Michigan's greatest health challenges.
Why Are We Doing a State Health Assessment Now?
This is the first time MAPP will be used for Michigan's SHA process. It is time to engage in this work to ensure current health needs of the population are addressed. In addition, the MDHHS Public Health Administration is preparing to achieve national public health accreditation for the state through the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB), and an SHA is a major part of the preparation.
PHAB accreditation is a process designed to "improve and protect the health of the public by advancing and transforming the quality and performance of governmental public health agencies in the U.S. and abroad."PHAB
A major focus of PHAB is involvement of the whole public health system in improving population health through thoughtful partnership, collaborative planning, and development of a shared vision and direction for improving the health of the population served. MDHHS is committed to joining this movement toward advancing and transforming public health.
Why Should I Be Involved in the Assessment?
A strengthened public health system and improved health outcomes benefits us all. When the public health system is aligned and working collaboratively toward common goals, partners benefit by building on existing resources and data-driven strategies for meeting Michigan's greatest health needs.
The success of the SHA depends upon participation from a wide range of residents, groups and constituencies, including public health agencies, hospitals, businesses, and faith- and community-based organizations.
What's Next, and How Can I Help?
There are many ways to be involved in the assessment process, including participating on the SHA Steering Committee, contributing your voice to assessment activities, and sharing what you know to ensure a well-rounded view of health in the state.

What is the diamond on a tape measure for?
The measurement tape |
The diamond on a tape measure typically represents the truss or on-center spacing commonly used in construction. In the context of framing or layout work, trusses are often spaced at standard intervals, such as 16 inches or 24 inches apart. The diamond symbol helps carpenters easily locate these intervals without having to perform additional calculations. By aligning the diamond with a truss mark, for instance, users can quickly identify the appropriate spacing for studs or other elements in construction projects.
The hidden features of measuring tape
Measuring tapes may have various features beyond the standard measurement markings. Some hidden features include:
Scriber or Scribing Tool: Some tape measures have a small protrusion on the end of the tape that can be used for marking surfaces. This feature allows users to make precise measurements and mark the material for cutting or other tasks.
Magnetic Hook: The end of the tape measure's hook may be magnetic. This is useful when working with metal surfaces, as it helps to secure the tape in place, making solo measurements easier.
Double-Sided Measurement: Certain tapes have measurements on both sides of the tape. This is handy when measuring in tight spaces, as you can read the measurement from either side of the tape.
Fractional Markings: Tapes often have markings in fractions, making it easier to measure and mark materials precisely, especially in construction where fractions are commonly used.
Self-Locking Feature: Some tape measures have a mechanism that automatically locks the tape in place once it's extended. This allows users to take measurements without the need for a second person to hold the tape.
Belt Clip: Many tape measures come with a belt clip for easy portability. This feature allows users to carry the tape on their belt, keeping it within reach during work.
Built-in Level: In some cases, tape measures may have a small bubble level integrated into the body. This can be helpful for checking if a surface is level while taking measurements.
Metric and Imperial Measurements: Many modern tape measures have both metric and imperial measurements on either side of the tape, providing versatility for users working with different measurement systems.
Remember, the specific features can vary among different tape measure models and brands, so it's advisable to check the product's documentation for details on any hidden or unique functionalities.
What is the purpose of the diamond on a tape measure?
The diamond on a tape measure typically signifies the spacing for trusses or studs in construction. It aids carpenters and builders by marking the standard on-center spacing, often 16 inches or 24 inches apart. By aligning the diamond symbol with a truss mark, users can quickly determine the appropriate spacing for framing elements without the need for additional calculations. It simplifies the process of laying out structures and ensures accurate placement of components in construction projects.

Data Science is one of the most amazing technological fields which is directly responsible for innovative and effective digital solutions that we have today. It has influenced the global economy significantly and branches emerging out of it are providing ground-breaking results in the world of machines.
Most interestingly, data science has emerged as ‘the dream’ field of career for ambitious and talented individuals world-wide. The job of a data scientist has already been termed as the ‘Sexiest’ of the century by the Harvard Business Review and in essence data science has helped in creating many new jobs which are both good paying and highly revered! However, many wonders about the key to success in Data Science and most importantly the skills that one should master before venturing out in search of lucrative jobs.
Is Python the key!
Recent surveys by multiple firms suggest that the popularity of Python in Data Science has grown significantly over the last few years. For instance, in a recent survey undertaken by Kaggle on 16000 data science professionals, it was found out that 87% of the total participants use Python regularly for various data science works!
In another survey conducted by the Analytics India Magazine it was claimed that as many as 44% of data scientists of the entire world use Python!
According to leading technological training firms, most data science job postings mention Python and the demand for Python skills is particularly high in countries like India and Malaysia.
Thus, Python seems like the most important skill to master to launch a career in data science.
But why Python?
Well, if you are wondering that why Python is being preferred more than statistical programming languages like R, then let us discuss a few advantages which Python offers over its rivals:
- Greatest advantage of Python- Simplicity and Flexibility
Data scientists today come from a variety of background and may or may not possess coding skills. For such individuals, mastering R can be very difficult and even though its not impossible yet data scientists today do not like to spend precious time on coding compliances and memorizing complicated Syntax. Python on the other hand is fairly simple to learn and apply for a variety of data science activities. It has the easiest learning curve and with a Python data science course, in no time you will be using Python like a pro for various data science jobs!
- Python offers dedicated packages for crucial data science activities
Data scientists requires dedicated software suits capable of handling jobs like data manipulation, advanced scientific calculations and data visualization. Python libraries like NumPy, SciPy and Matplotlib offers all of that and are quite popular among data scientists. Pandas is another Python library which is very popular because it offers developing ML and even DL models with it!
Moreover, Python is open-source and boasts a great support community and thus it is gradually becoming ‘The’ data science skill that every budding data scientist should have. And with a Python Data science course in India you can acquire Python skills too!

Here we are in "Happy New Year 2021" and thus ready to use/redeem the airline fee credits associated with certain credit card's where the counter reset's at the end of calendar year. Lot of American Express premium credit card's as well as few other cards (Expedia Voyager, BofA Premium Rewards) have their "airline fee credit" counter reset on 01/01. American Express describes these airline fee credits which comes as part of Amex Gold and other premium cards as incidentals for reimbursing fees such as baggage, seat upgrade etc. But based on what gets reimbursed there are certain charges which although not exactly incidentals still work for reimbursement. For American Express you need to select One airline of the Major U.S. Carriers for given calendar year before you make the charge for incidental (which can be done online). There are certain purchases with United Airlines, Delta Airlines and Southwest Airlines which still get reimburse as of this writing, but what works today may not be working today and your best resource is this flyertalk thread for Southwest. Other airlines flyertalk thread can be found on that page! Here are the amounts of airlines incidentals for few of the popular cards per calendar year:
So, get going on these use/re-imbursement's for something other than the actual airline incidentals if you have any of the above card's in your wallet. Disclaimer: Some of the links used in the post may be referral links and earn referral to this site. We appreciate you supporting the website. COVID-19 has disrupted many travel plans and a side effect of struggling airline industry is the airlines credit or discount codes issued in lieu of direct refund wherever the airlines could offer it. But due to on and off lock downs and travel restrictions even folks who were issued those airline credit or discount code would find difficult in using it. So, if you have expiring airlines credits or discount codes here are few things you can do: Contact airline's to see if they can courtesy extend your credit: Lot of airlines realize that it still might not be possible for folks to use the credit or discount code's and given the ramping COVID-19 they might be willing to extend it or re-issue a new code with future expiration date. Convert the credits to airlines miles (YMMV, but keep an eye for any special run by airlines): Few airlines have been innovative and have provided members with option to convert their available credits due to cancellation to airline miles. Southwest Airlines already have active promotion for the same (So check if your credit qualifies) and Alaska Air has run the promotion couple of times in the past, so keep any eye if you have Alaska Airlines credit. Use the credit or discount code to book future trip: While your credit may expire it generally can be used for booking future flights before expiration. Although how far in future you can book depends on airlines, usually you should be able to book 330 days out on major U.S. airlines (Except Southwest Airlines). So as a last resort you can book something way out with hope of taking that flight and hoping if there are schedule changes you can use it to your advantage to change your ticket for free without any additional cost. So, do not sit and let that airline credit/ discount code expire but rather act upon it with whichever options works out for you before the expiration date. Disclaimer: Some of the links used in the post may be referral links and earn referral to this site. We appreciate you supporting the website. Happy New Year to all the folks! It is a start of new year which means if you have credit cards which gives airline incidental credit on calendar year are available again to take advantage of. American Express Issued credit cards such as American Express Gold Card which provide incidental credits reset based on calendar year and are available for New Year from 01/01/2019. Also specifically for American Express, you do need to select the preferred airline and you get incidental reimbursement for only that airline. Also not all credit card's give credit based on calendar year. Also some of the airline e-gift cards or award ticket taxes and fees might trigger the incidental credit. So do check this flyertalk thread for latest data points if you are looking to purchase gift cards. Below are the credit cards which provides airline incidental credit based on calendar year (Do note the list might not be complete).
There are other cards such as Chase Sapphire Reserve, U.S. Bank Altitude Reserve, Citi Prestige which provides credit for any charge made directly with airlines and other travel categories as defined by their terms and are per "card membership year". Since these are not limited to incidentals you can use them for airfare as well as incidentals. So, get going and redeem these incidental credits before your annual fees come due. Disclaimer: Some of the links used in the post may be referral links and earn referral to this site. We appreciate you supporting the website. One of the task in mileage award redemption is to figure out which airlines serve the source and destination. Sometimes the routing may not be direct and would involve one or more connections. Paid tools like ExpertFlyer can provide you seat availability for given airlines but before you get there you need to know which airlines serves your source and destination which will also allow you to figure out which particular mileage currency might be useful. FlightConnections: FlightConnections is a useful website to find out what airlines services your source and destination airport. It has below set of features as of now:
There are few con's though of using the website.
So, next time you are looking to get that mileage redemption award going you might want to check this website. Disclaimer: Some of the links used in the post may be referral links and earn referral to this site. We appreciate you supporting the website. Let me state this outright that I am averse to any interaction which would make private information public. Although social media is all about sharing it is also a boon to getting your issues resolved without picking up the phone or hunting for that email or chat option. So why twitter among all the social media? Twitter has nice feature called "Messages" which you can use to send Direct Messages to anyone on twitter. The way it works is below:
You can resolve all kinds of issues relating to flight change, compensation for any service issue, miles not credited etc. For other merchants you can also resolve your account or order issues. The reason it works so effectively is you can make comments publicly with their twitter "handle" and no brand likes a bad publicity/comments and would work to resolve it immediately. So, next time you have issue with your flights, hotels do use this option as an effective way of getting your issues resolved.
