The Samba’s interior was meticulously restored to its original specifications by Devon Conversions, a renowned specialist. Originally built at the VW factory in Wolfsburg, the van was imported by Colborne Garages in Surrey, Britain’s first VW dealership. A custom, period-accurate Devon interior was installed, complete with the same fridge and stove units as the original design. In 1959, the dealership’s owner modified the interior for family holidays, and the right-hand-drive model was stored in the West Country for 30 years. It was rediscovered in 1992 and carefully restored to its original condition.

The fragmentation of the policy landscape is evident in the tensions between environmental and energy policies, as seen in the work of national departments (e.g., Dept. of Energy and Climate Change, Dept. of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) and international organizations (e.g., IPCC, IPBES). A notable example of this tension is the promotion of biofuels, which have been advocated for their potential to enhance energy security, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and lower greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector (Gasparatos et al., 2011; Mohr and Raman, 2013; van der Horst and Vermeylen, 2011).

The Rust ownership model is highly effective. I experimented with a similar concept years ago as an enhancement to C++, aiming primarily to remove the need for reference count updates when passing objects to functions without granting them permission to delete or retain the object. Rust takes this model significantly further, and it proves successful. The approach can be extended to enable compile-time checks for more common use cases, potentially covering additional idiomatic patterns from C++.

Hackers used online "honey traps," posing as attractive women, to target Syrian rebels and steal battle plans as well as the identities of defectors, according to a security firm. A report by U.S. cybersecurity company FireEye documented hacking operations between late 2013 and early 2014 that focused on Syrian opposition fighters, media activists, and humanitarian aid workers. FireEye noted it was unclear whether the stolen information was shared with the Syrian government or who the hackers were affiliated with. Among the compromised material was a detailed military plan for a 2013 opposition attack on Khirbet Ghazaleh, a strategically important town in southern Daraa province. The town, previously under rebel control, was captured by regime forces in May 2013.

The performances in this film are strong and contribute to its gritty tone. Christopher Walken delivers a notably serious portrayal as the family's head brother, a role that contrasts with his typically humorous demeanor but one he handles effectively. Similarly, Benicio Del Toro excels in his part, as he often does, bringing depth to his character. His portrayal of a gangster feels authentic, evoking both disdain and sympathy from the audience.

In operation, a signal is delivered to the voice coil by means of electrical wires, from the amplifier through speaker cable, then through flexible tinsel wire to the moving coil. The current creates a magnetic field that causes the diaphragm to be alternately forced one way or the other, by the magnetic field produced by current flowing in the voice coil, against the field established in the magnetic gap by the fixed magnet structure as the electrical signal varies. The resulting back-and-forth motion drives the air in front of the diaphragm, resulting in pressure differentials that travel away as sound waves.

My grandmother, Jane, lives alone in a large house, and her family was concerned about her situation. After graduating, I had some free time while taking online classes for another degree, so I decided to move in with her. This was partly to ease her family’s worries and prevent them from pressuring her into moving to a retirement home. Although she’s technically my step-grandmother, she’s the only grandmother I’ve known on this side of the family, as my biological grandmother passed away before I was born. I mention this to clarify why I refer to her family separately from my own.

With keen appreciation and understanding of this phase of her development, John Boswell kept conversation and life upon the surface, and rarely permitted a letting-down of thought. Cautiously, and not too often, he took his guest on tours of inspection and watched her while she underwent new ordeals or experienced pain from unknown thrills. He had never been more interested or amused in his life, and, in his enthusiasm, exaggerated Priscilla's capabilities. He revelled in her frankness and her confidence; he learned from her more of Farwell than he could have learned in any other way, and his faithful heart throbbed in pity, pride, and affection for the lonely master of the In-Place, who, little heeding his own progress, had triumphed over his old and lesser self at last.

It’s not entirely incorrect, but in the United States, many people deny climate change due to a deliberate campaign of misinformation. Evidence from Exxon lawsuits continues to reveal this. While it’s valid to argue that this reflects a failure of the liberal order and a search for alternatives, it’s also true that people are being misled and exploited. A critique of capitalism might focus on how it enables figures like Rupert Murdoch to influence the beliefs of significant portions of the population.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I should like firstly to thank Parliament for the great interest it has expressed in this Chamber for a subject that is clearly important. I should also like to thank the speakers who, overall, reacted very positively to the statement I made on behalf of Mrs Ferrero-Waldner. I should like to point out that it is she who deserves the credit because I was speaking on her behalf, and I shall be sure to convey this general feeling of support to her. I shall also pass on all the suggestions and reflections expressed that do not necessarily relate to the statement, in particular those concerning the place and role of Russia and cooperation with that country.

A clear example of how ecological data can be analyzed through multi-scale object-based approaches is demonstrated by de Chant and Kelly (2009) in their study of sudden oak death, a forest disease in California, USA. By treating individual trees as objects in remote sensing classifications, they gained critical insights into the disease’s ecology and its broader impacts. Their work highlighted the role of non-oak hosts in disease transmission, supported by analyses of spatial and temporal patterns involving oaks and their neighboring trees (Kelly et al., 2008; Liu et al., 2006). These patterns were found to operate across multiple scales and exhibited hierarchical structures (Liu et al.,

If you exchanged bitcoins for goods or services (instead of selling them), then amount realized is more complicated. This is essentially a barter transaction, where the default rule is to use the fair market value of the goods or services received in the exchange. For example, if you purchased a laptop on November 29th with bitcoins, your amount realized would be equal to the Fair Market Value of the laptop on that date. The easiest way to determine Fair Market Value is by reference to the sales price, although an alternative method can be used if yields a more accurate value.

Darwaza Bandh Rakho was presented as a comedy from RGV’s production house, marking a shift from his recent action and horror films. Directed by Chekravarthy, whose previous work, such as the poorly received *Durga*, did not inspire confidence, and featuring a modest star cast, expectations for the film were understandably low. This was further compounded by the underwhelming experience of watching *Anthony*. The story revolves around a group of four—Ajay (Aftab Shivdasani), Goga (Snehal Dabhi), Raghu (Chunky Pandey), and Abbas (Zakir Hussain)—who aim to make quick money by kidnapping Isha (Isha Sharvani), the spoiled daughter of a construction tycoon. Their plan takes an unexpected turn when they end up holding a financially struggling Gujarati family, led by Kantilal Shah (Ishrat Ali), hostage.

Most of the Byzantine enamels known today are from the 9th to 12th centuries. The period of Iconoclasm from 726 to 787 AD meant that most examples predating the 8th century were destroyed because of their iconographic nature, though there are a few examples thought to have been made earlier. One of the earliest examples of Byzantine enamel work is a medallion created in either the late 5th or early 6th century and features a bust portrait of Empress Eudoxia. The period after Iconoclasm saw an upswing in the production of iconic portraits, to which the intricate form of cloisonné developed by the Byzantines lends itself easily. Most enamel works known today have been housed in western Europe since the beginning of the 13th century.

These studies show that there are significant differences in the oxysterol composition of AD [158,159], ALS [139], PD [141,144], and other diseased brain/serum/CSF samples and healthy samples, raising the possibility of an early diagnostic involving sterol concentrations. Chronic epilepsy also shares many of these pathologies, and it has even been suggested that epilepsy is caused by atherosclerosis, so treatment of atherosclerosis could also lessen the effects of epilepsy [162]. Development of AD is perhaps the most well studied neurodegenerative disorder in its relation to 7KC. Marked by the accumulation of extracellular β-amyloid (A-β) plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles in the brain, AD tangles often include oxidatively modified and hyper-phosphorylated tau (a microtubule assembly protein), which may be increased by molecules that cause oxidative stress, such as 7KC. A-β plaques are formed largely by the cleavage of the amyloid-β precursor protein (A-βPP) into toxic Aβ peptides rather than into non-toxic AβPP peptides.

By the time I read Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea in high school, I'd already read A Farewell to Arms and The Sun Also Rises. Good thing, too, because The Old Man and the Sea is Hemingway's tersest statement about what it means for a male to live a worthwhile life: live vigorously, test yourself, fight what threatens to destroy you (within and without), and emerged bloodied, but unbowed. If I hadn't been steeped in the author's themes already, I never would have gotten this message from his last, great, but very thin book. As it was, I still had to rely on Cliffs Notes to alert me to the mythic and Christ allusions. This book would have been a daunting adaptation for any movie maker, since most of the important stuff going on is unseen and unspoken.

The discussion of Irish society in the eighteenth century would be incomplete without addressing the significant restrictions imposed on a large portion of the population. The penal laws aimed to transfer property ownership to Protestants, and while they were largely successful, they were often circumvented through the cooperation and goodwill of Protestants themselves. Intermarriages between Catholics and Protestants occurred, and in some cases, Protestants held property in trust for Catholic owners. Through these and other methods, Catholic families managed to retain some of their estates. A few examples can help illustrate both the enforcement and evasion of these laws.

During my freshman year of high school, I attended a week-long band camp at a college campus where we stayed in dorms. My roommate, Russell, brought some weed, and on Tuesday night, we got extremely high. We also had a can of bug spray and started lighting random things on fire, including the blade of a hunting knife I had somehow brought with me and even my hand. At one point, we sprayed a cross on the side of a building and lit it, leaving a large burning cross on the side of a building at this very Christian, vegan-friendly campus. Things escalated further when my friends convinced me to light my own body on fire, offering to pay me if I did.

In both scenarios, possession is established either through an admission or through evidence strong enough to render any denial ineffective. The trustee bears the same burden of proving possession at the time the turnover order is issued. This determination relies on evidence of possession at the time of the order or on the inference of continued possession, once possession is either admitted or proven at the time of adjudication. The strength of this inference depends on factors such as the type and amount of property involved, the time elapsed, and the credibility of any explanation provided by the respondent. Imposing a different burden on the trustee in cases where misappropriation is admitted, as opposed to cases where it is proven despite denial, could encourage fraudulent respondents to opt for the former approach.

Workers at the struggling company learned their jobs were at risk through news reports on Christmas Day, after the business entered administration, leading to criticism of the firm's leadership for their handling of the situation. Hunter Kelly, joint administrator for City Link, explained that the company had faced significant financial losses over several years. He attributed these losses to intense competition in the sector, shifts in customer and parcel recipient preferences, and challenges in reducing operational costs. The financial strain ultimately depleted the £40 million investment made by Better Capital in 2013, which had been intended to help revive the company.

A changepoint, which refers to an unobserved shift in the task, leads to a change in the generative model of x and/or y. In the example provided, images labeled as 1 transition from sailboats to school buses, while images labeled as 2 shift from sloths to geese. MOCA recursively estimates the time elapsed since the last changepoint and conditions a meta-learning model only on data relevant to the current task to improve prediction accuracy. Standard meta-learning algorithms, when applied to pre-segmented data grouped by individual tasks, can estimate this expectation by sampling a group with a fixed T, treating part of it as context data Dt, and sampling the remainder for test points within the same task. While this approach works well for few-shot learning, it is inadequate for sequential prediction scenarios, where the underlying task may evolve over time and segmenting data by task becomes challenging. Our objective is to adapt meta-learning tools to such dynamic settings.

Before the Great War, the focus of the temperance crusade was the local and not the federal level. The possibility of regulating the sale and consumption of liquor seemed reasonable to some, and in 1878, the federal government passed enabling legislation, the Canada Temperance Act, which enabled the local option of prohibition through referenda. Like all referenda, the local option effectively lifts from the shoulders of legislators the burden of making a choice on behalf of their constituents. It necessitates the involvement of the local electorate in direct decision-making around an ideal that has not been expressed in the form of a policy. ( Members of Parliament debate actual bills that they can see and hold and on which they may offer editorial suggestions; referenda typically ask for general agreement on a broad principal without providing any of the details.)

S4). As noted above, this could be partially explained by MDA levels being influenced by the diet (e. g. , high-fat diet [56]). Previous studies have shown that the animals fed with dietary fat and oils increased lipid peroxidation as measured by elevated blood MDA concentrations [57]. In addition to endogenous lipid peroxidation, the MDA content in food was significantly increased after panor deep-frying [58] because of the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids, and the ingested MDA could be taken up and subsequently excreted [59]. Based on the above previous studies, a lower urinary MDA concentration in MV patients may be because MV patients receive a modified diet via enteral feeding, which does not contain fried food, and hence MDA.

Polish fishermen have been significantly affected by the flawed and inequitable cod fishing policy. Initially, catch restrictions were applied to vessels under the Polish flag, which were later followed by a complete ban on cod fishing. This has not only harmed the livelihoods of the fishermen but also raised the risk of bankruptcy for the Polish processing industry. For this reason, among the proposed amendments, special attention should be given to research efforts.

From my earliest memories, home life was marked by instability, particularly in financial matters. My parents struggled with managing money, and one of my first recollections, from when I was three, involves a cold December when we lost power for a week. During that time, we were left without electricity in the middle of winter, and I can still recall fragments of sitting in the dark, wrapped in blankets, waiting for the power to return.

Prodigal's second album stands as their strongest work. It opens powerfully with "Scene of the Crime," setting the tone for a collection of energetic and skillfully performed tracks. Unlike many Christian bands that focus on overtly religious themes, the lyrics here explore navigating modern life through a spiritual lens. The album is consistently strong, with no weak points, and benefits from solid production and execution throughout.

A gentleman became well-known in his social circle for presenting a French riddle, often attributed to Voltaire, which no one could solve. He wrote "Ga" on the back of a card and asked if anyone could decipher it, hinting that the answer was something everyone possessed or should possess when sitting down to dinner. The card circulated among the group, sparking discussion for some time. After repeated unsuccessful attempts, everyone gave up, and he added the following beneath the "Ga":

Concerned that his own reputation could be compromised by withholding this information, Mr. Truby expressed his determination to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Federal funding didn't decrease, the nature of the money being made available shifted into a very easy to get loan that the Feds now make money off of. Not only do they print huge profits on it, they also ensure the laws remain such that you can't discharge the debt, to their own benefit. This has helped replace the red ink that Social Security is now generating, as previously the Feds were stealing from SS funding instead of actually safe-guarding the inbound revenue flows. Now they can't steal from the positive SS flows, so they had to come up with a 'revenue replacement' \\- what better way than to hitch young workers to massive debt they can't get rid of, yielding a perpetual interest bonanza for Federal spending. It will generate over half a trillion dollars in interest for the Feds in the next ten years.

If this were the only consideration, it would clearly be our duty to revise our previous opinion and align it with the views of the Supreme Court. However, we believe there are additional facts and considerations that distinguish the two cases, making the rule applicable in one case unsuitable for the other.

As a long-time Manduka user, I decided to try a new mat cleaner and came across this brand, which has been a great choice. Since I practice hot yoga almost daily, my mats require frequent cleaning due to buildup.

I also appreciate that it’s natural and organic, which is important to me as I often clean my mats in open spaces near my pets.

The concept of services of general interest is particularly relevant in the context of the IDABC programme for 2005-2009. The Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance supports free software, as it aligns with the goal of ensuring interoperable delivery of pan-European government services to administrations. We endorse these initiatives, and it is worth noting that the city of Munich, for instance, has transitioned to LINUX and free software, following the example set by IDA. We hope this encourages other administrations to adopt similar approaches.

After about three shots, I was already feeling quite drunk since I don’t handle alcohol well. I had one more shot before heading home and decided to bake some cookies. While taking them out of the oven, I accidentally burned my hand on the oven rack. I’m no stranger to small burns while baking, as I tend to be clumsy even when sober, but this time it was worse.

These bath salts offer a unique experience. When added to water, they create a pleasant, non-irritating scent and give the water a milky appearance. They are soothing on the skin, and the variety of available scents is appealing. While I can't compare them to a hot springs experience, they have become my favorite bath product. They don't stain the tub or leave residue, and they feel therapeutic, especially for sensitive skin.

Maybe, in an ideal society, we would expect every citizen to be able to eloquently refute every bad idea. However, in our existing society, our heuristic is to require that citizens only put in the effort to politely discuss or debate content that does not incite or entail violence. When it comes to violence, our heuristic as a society is to protect people first, and ask for justification only much later if at all. We assume that somewhere a philosophy professor, a priest, or a public official can retrieve the arguments against mass violence.

We purchased this as an engagement gift for a couple, intending to give it to them at their engagement party. We were initially pleased with the idea, as it seemed like the perfect choice. However, upon receiving it, we were disappointed with the quality of the map. It provided only a general overview of the area we wanted to highlight, including many surrounding cities rather than focusing on the specific town. While we understand that this approach may be necessary depending on the location, the overall quality of the map was below average, appearing grainy and lacking detail.

The collaboration with Larry proved successful once again, as evident in this release, much like it was with *Stranded in Babylon*. *Endless Life of Dreams*, a lively and energetic rock track, delves into a recurring theme in Larry’s work: the emptiness of a life without God and the pursuit of love, purpose, and meaning in the material world. Similarly, *Center of My Heart* stands out as a well-crafted and straightforward song, showcasing the memorable quality that defines many of his more inspired compositions. *Rock the Flock* opens with a sampled and scratched guitar riff taken from *He’s the Rock That Doesn’t Roll*, a track from the 1977 album *In Another Land*.

There are pirates who have survived from the first film who are looking for revenge and food. Then there are revolutionaries including Maggie (Maggie Cheung, In The Mood For Love) and (Rosamund Kwan, Casino Raiders) who are trying to raise funds for Dr. Sun Yat-sen to overthrow the Qing Government as well as government operatives who are trying to find these rebels. Throw in a mixture of corrupt Hong Kong and British Cops as well as legitimate ones and you have a stew that is getting a bit too many ingredients, but yet still seems to coalesce. This works well when there is a Marx Brothers influenced scene (the Marx Brothers have done this type of scene a few times with The Cocoanuts (1929) being the first) at Maggie's place where everyone is looking for someone while hiding from someone else. Many weeks were spent on this scene alone and the effort certainly shows.

After a period of rest in their respective forms, the Spirits dispatched one of their swiftest messengers to inquire of the Empress whether she wished to employ a scribe or write the Cabbala herself. The Empress responded courteously to their offer, expressing her preference for a Spiritual Scribe.

The Empress questioned how Spirits could take on the physical form of flesh, to which they replied that it was no more extraordinary than a man equipping himself with a steel gauntlet.

According to the Māori Professor Hēmi Whaanga (2020), “there are many insightful lessons that can be garnered from this book to assist and guide our Māori language communities. For individuals and groups involved in language planning, language revitalisation, Māori-medium education contexts, I would definitely recommend the second part of this book. In particular the concept of native tongue title and the notion of seeking compensation for linguicide, and the correlation between language revival and wellbeing, are two areas worthy of further exploration in an Aotearoa New Zealand context. As noted in many places throughout this fascinating book, language is the vehicle that carries our deepest thoughts, our ideas, customs, genealogy, history, mythology, songs, prayers, dreams, hopes, desires, frustrations, anger, knowledge, and identity. It is at the core of our existence.”

An excellent movie where everything is beautiful - from the crumbling, claustrophobic backdrops of the antagonists' hiding places, the actors and the background music. Besides showing an unusual homosexual relationship, the film also questions the relationship between sex, love and violence - even when the main characters turn "straight" violence and death hang in the air, with scenes sex often interspliced with those of death and agony. More importantly, you can't help but feel sorry - and yet almost envious - for the doomed (and did I mention beautiful?) lovers as they slide towards their inevitable end, just for the incredible passion they have for each other.

Moreover, the differentiation between types of noise pollution is insufficient. Since the proposed ratio of 1:20 between the highest and lowest noise charge was insufficient, the rapporteur suggested increasing this ratio from 20 to 40, which is wholly acceptable. By and large, we agree with the proposals made by the rapporteur, but we added one element to these proposals that the rapporteur unfortunately rejects, namely to take into account the level of noise at night and the level of noise during the day/night/evening, which are two extremely important indicators of noise pollution which allow us to differentiate between charges.

A statement in several journals claimed that in the final volume of Sir Archibald Alison’s _History of Europe_, Sir Peregrine Maitland’s name was printed as Sir Peregrine _Pickle_.

However, in the copy we examined, this error does not appear, which offers some evidence in support of the compositor’s accuracy.

Choosing to to be apolitical is a political stance. It would be nice if we could magically divorce people's work from their stance, but their stance will affect how they treat their peers and juniorsthis is how patterns of oppression become systems. If a person has beliefs that women are inherently less capable of work, they will be unlikely to volunteer women for promotions or even see their women coworkers as having performed the work done. If a person has beliefs that black people are more violent or thuggish, they are unlikely to view that black coworker asserting that a technology requirement is utterly stupid in the same light as a white coworker asserting the same.

As the cells open, the fallen begin to rush in from all directions. Each panel reveals more of the maze, including the next panel, which must be located in a random order that changes with each attempt. To increase the complexity, a multi-level structure with rooms on different levels could be added. The challenge lies in the requirement that once a panel is activated, one guardian must remain to defend it while the others continue searching. When all three panels are secured, the rest of the maze opens, and the guardians receive a piece of a fallen weapon or a similar relic.

For a cryptocurrency to survive, it must serve a distinct purpose; otherwise, it becomes tied to the value of another coin or fiat currency and will likely fail. In the best-case scenario for Dogecoin, Bitcoin would handle long-term value storage, Litecoin would be used for everyday transactions like buying coffee, and Dogecoin would carve out its own unique role. However, if Dogecoin ends up competing with 10 to 100 other coins, it would lose its transactional utility, reducing its use to exchanging meaningless strings of characters.

The only building I visited in this court was the Divân hall, which remains largely unchanged since the days when the state’s principal assembly convened within its walls. This large, vaulted room is illuminated by small Moorish windows above and is adorned with marble, gold arabesques, and no furniture other than the long divan where council members once sat. Above the grand vizier’s seat, a small window with a gilded lattice still marks the spot where Suleiman I. and later sultans observed—or were believed to observe—the proceedings unseen. A concealed passage connected this hidden space to the imperial apartments in the third enclosure, where the empire’s chief ministers gathered five times a week under the grand vizier’s leadership.

In 1249, Shajar al-Durr, as-Salih Ayyub's widow, had a mausoleum for as-Salih built adjacent to his madrasa. This established a medieval Islamic tradition of burying the patron in the religious institution he or she founded. The Salihiyya Madrasa trained Sunni faqih (judges or experts in jurisprudence) and soon became known as the "citadel of the scholars (ulema)." Historical accounts such as the map of al-Maqrizi show that there were 24 madrasas in the Ayyub Cairo.

The dependencies for slope in the normal state vary, but the transition onset temperatures (and the Tc R=0, not shown here) remain largely unchanged, indicating that Tc can be reproducibly stabilized and is characteristic of the reduced Ru/Cu ratio introduced during synthesis at ambient pressure. The data also reveal an anomalous decrease in resistivity, with the maximum effect observed at 1 Tesla for both samples—note the reversed sign of magnetoresistivity between 56 K and 51 K for sample B and between 55 K and 48 K for sample C. A similar anomaly was recently reported for the superconducting sample Ru0.8Sn0.2GdCu2O8 [21]. The temperature dependencies in Figure 3 show that this effect begins at 62 K, corresponding to the Tc value on fl. This suggests it may arise from phase fluctuations or a complex interplay between the magnetic field and magnetic and superconducting phases. Additionally, high-field diamagnetic fluctuations have been observed in HTSC superconductors for comparable magnetic fields above 1 Tesla [22].

The way the referendum passed off peacefully and the good assessments it received, including from the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe, create the impression of stability, but in fact, the stability is very fragile and very superficial. The causes of this include erosion of state structures in Kyrgyzstan and the elections due to take place on 10 October, which do not allow faster reforms to be made, and also the economic and social crisis, as well as informal authority structures within Kyrgyzstan and groups which could be called criminal groups.
