Until now, most of The Chattery’s classes focus on reflecting inward - bettering your professional development skills or learning how to create art, but Human Development focuses on the outward - how you treat others and how to be more empathetic toward one another, said officials.Īll Human Development workshop registration is donation-based, however, the founders believe money should not be a barrier to learning. The Chattery plans for Human Development to be a permanent part of their class calendar beyond 2022. This event is open to anyone looking for ways to gain more knowledge on managing their mental health. The talk will conclude with a brief breathwork exercise. Marie will address practical ways for one to manage their mental health in today's world given the impact of grief, stress and isolation experienced collectively in the past two years.

Relatives said the husband of one of the teachers killed in the attack died Thursday from a medical emergency - caused by grief over the loss of his wife. The tight-knit Latino community was changed forever when Salvador Ramos, an 18-year-old with a history of being bullied, entered the school and gunned down students and teachers with an assault rifle. “One family member, he says: ‘I was in the military, just give me a gun, I’ll go in. “Parents were desperate,” said Daniel Myers, 72. “The situation could’ve been over quick if they had better tactical training.”ĭaniel Myers and his wife Matilda - both local pastors - told AFP they saw parents at the scene growing frantic as police seemed to wait on reinforcements before entering the school. “There was at least 40 lawmen armed to the teeth but didn’t do a darn thing (until) it was far too late,” Cazares told ABC News Wednesday. Jacinto Cazares, whose daughter Jacklyn died on Tuesday, said he raced to the school when he heard about the shooting. One woman, frantic about her son, yells to police: “If they’ve got a shot, shoot him or something. In another shorter video, parents at what is apparently the rear of the building complain angrily that police are doing nothing as the country’s worst school shooting in a decade is unfolding. “It’s my daughter!” one woman bellows amid chaotic scenes of crying and shoving.Īngeli Rose Gomez, whose children were inside, told The Wall Street Journal she was handcuffed by federal marshals after she and others pushed police to intervene.

Tropical wave 1: Environmental conditions are expected to be marginally conducive for development, however, a tropical depression could still form over the weekend. Steady to rapid strengthening is expected when Ida moves over the southeastern and central Gulf of Mexico over the weekend, and Ida is expected to be an extremely dangerous major hurricane when it approaches the northern Gulf Coast on Sunday. Little change in strength is anticipated while Ida moves over western Cuba this evening. Hurricane Ida: Maximum sustained winds are at 80 mph, with higher gusts. Category 3 storms have winds of 111-129 mph and "devastating damage will occur" with storms of that strength.ĪccuWeather forecasters are warning residents and businesses from the Texas coast to Louisiana and the panhandles of Mississippi, Alabama and Florida to closely monitor the Ida's progress since there may be little time to prepare once the system forms, a definitive path develops and the storm strengthens rapidly. The Hurricane Center defines "major hurricanes" as Category 3 or higher. New warnings issued Friday afternoon include a storm surge warning from east of Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge in Louisiana to the Mississippi/Alabama border, a hurricane warning for the coast of Louisiana from Intracoastal City to the Mouth of the Pearl River, including Lake Pontchartrain, Lake Maurepas, and Metropolitan New Orleans, and a tropical storm warning for the northern Gulf Coast from the mouth of the Pearl River to the Mississippi/Alabama border, as well as the coast of Louisiana from west of Intracoastal City to Cameron. ![]() Ida approaching Gulf Coast: Hurricane watches issued for Gulf Coast states as forecasters warn Tropical Storm Ida could be 'strongest storm of the season' Ida's impact could be felt from Texas to portions of Florida. How quickly the system ramps up may determine where it makes landfall along the U.S. Projected wind speed has increased to 140 mph within 48 hours, which would make Ida a highly-dangerous Category 4 storm. Most models have Ida moving toward a Louisiana landfall over the weekend at or near major hurricane strength. Hurricane Ida continued to strengthen Friday, with winds holding steady at 80 mph, according to the National Hurricane Center. 1/8/2024 0 Comments Level 50 rain on your parade

We face a totally different world than we faced in the Obama-Biden administration. However, Obama’s impression departs from Biden’s perspective on his mandate in the White House.Īsked following his election in November if his presidency would essentially be a third term for the Obama administration, Biden demurred. “I was both a manifestation of the more progressive views that young people brought to politics in 2008, and 2009, 2010, and I think my presidency helped to solidify a huge tilt in the direction of progressive politics among young people that is now continuing into their 30s as the millennials, and even the Gen Zers, are starting to marry and have families, who know their political identity has been shaped and changed in pretty significant ways.” Former President Obama said he thinks President Biden and his administration will be successful. “But at the margins, if you’re changing 5 percent of the electorate, that makes a difference.”Įxplaining his belief that younger generations were impacted by politics in a different way than their parents, the former president said he thought he was “a manifestation” of the progressive movement in the Democratic Party now. “Does it override that sort of identity politics that has come to dominate Twitter, and the media, and that has seeped into how people think about politics?

The former president went on to caution that whether the Biden administration’s work will impact people’s political leanings remains to be seen. Former President Obama said the world is “totally different” than it was during the Obama-Biden administration. “Ninety percent of the folks who were there in my administration, they are continuing and building on the policies we talked about, whether it’s the Affordable Care Act, or our climate change agenda, and the Paris, and figuring out how do we improve the ladders to mobility through things like community colleges,” he continued. And I think it’ll be an interesting test,” Obama explained. “I think that what we’re seeing now, is Joe and the administration are essentially finishing the job. ![]() The 44th commander-in-chief made the comments in an interview this week with “The Ezra Klein Show,” a New York Times podcast, after being asked if he believed policy could persuade people to vote differently in this politically charged era.

The speaker for the audio output is located directly above the keyboard. The key also features three large nibs at the center, which are placed in a triangle to aid in tactile identification. The key measures 3.4 inches in width by 0.8 inches tall and is marked with an image of a person using a wheelchair, an international symbol for accessibility. To enable speech-output functionality, passengers with low vision or blindness can press the long horizontal Accessibility Function Key below these buttons. ![]() This is used to enter negative numbers on floors below the main or ground level. The star key does not have any function, but the key that would normally be used for a pound key is marked with a dash or negative sign. The 5 key has a large nib for orientation. To give a tactile indication, the labels have been etched into the buttons. The buttons’ shiny silver background and large black labels, measuring 0.7 inches in diameter, contrast well with them. The buttons are large, 0.8-inch square, and are spaced 0.4 inches apart. It has a phone-style keypad that features 12 keys, arranged in the 3-by-4 grid. It was designed for people with low vision or blindness. Keypad interfaces have speech-output functionality. However, it would not have the familiar grid of buttons that we use to direct an elevator.

This would be where the “up” and “down” buttons are normally located. The first is a keypad-style interface, which would be placed on the wall next to the elevator doors. Otis created two new entry devices that passengers could use to call the elevators. This article will discuss the accessibility features of a destination-based elevator system as well as the collaboration between AFB’s consulting team and the manufacturer to make it accessible. Otis requested AWS to assess the accessibility features of its new elevator control systems and make recommendations to improve their accessibility for people with disabilities. This allowed architects to create taller buildings than those that were limited by stairways. In 1853, Elisha Graves Otis built the first safety elevator in Yonkers (New York). Otis is the largest manufacturer of moving walkways and escalators in the world. Check out these lift part suppliers!ĪccessWorld Solutions (AWS), the consulting arm of the American Foundation for the Blind (AFB), was hired by Otis Elevator Company to ensure accessibility and usability for its destination-based elevator control system for passengers with disabilities. All output must be communicated in easy-to-understand language and visually accessible for people with low vision. ![]() The person must be able to choose their destination floor independently from the entry device. Accessibility of both the input and output portions of these systems is essential for people with low vision or blindness. The entry device directs them to that car. The system will then select the most efficient elevator car to take the passenger to the floor. These new systems allow passengers to enter their destination floor by simply pressing the “up” or down button to summon an elevator. They are intended to speed up the dispatch of elevators in tall buildings that house multiple elevator cars. New “destination-based” control methods have been developed by elevator manufacturers. Humidity is maintained as low as possible at all times.Īll greenhouse fruit species listed have been grown both in-ground and in 5-15 gallon pots. The high temperatures in summer can be held below 95 F in a greenhouse in Alpine. Summer cooling is achieved via wet wall and opposing 36 inch exhaust fans. The other fruits discussed need eight weeks of chilling or less. The crops requiring most chilling hours are sweet cherries and some apricots. Winter chilling is aided by shade cloth and evaporative cooling. Winter chilling requires about 10-12 weeks with nights at 38-40F and days as cool as can be managed, about 55-60F. Soil is a very well drained, deep, clay loam with moderate water holding capacity. A greenhouse of 1728 sq ft in Alpine, Texas costs about $50 per month for cooling and $300 per year for heating to 39F. Winters are mild enough that heating costs are reasonable. Summers are cool and dry enough that greenhouse temperatures can be held in the ideal range. elevation is ideally suited to greenhouse production of many fruits. A protective structure can increase yield and consistency of production, reduce diseases of tree and fruit, improve fruit appearance, and improve brix and sometimes flavor. With the proper structure, early blooming stone fruit and many other fruits could be grown in many parts of the USA where they are otherwise difficult to grow. The ideal design of the structure is dependent on the crop, the objectives of the growing situation, and climate. ![]() A greenhouse, high tunnel, or other protective structure can greatly improve production and fruit quality in many climatic conditions. 1/8/2024 0 Comments Osculator definiiton![]() Similarly, a resistance break on expanding volume shows more buying intensity.

The Volume Oscillator can be used to confirm a support or resistance break. To swing back and forth with a steady, uninterrupted rhythm. Such devices generally output a fixed frequency, but some can be controlled by a tuning. Oscillation is defined as the process of repeating variations of any quantity or measure about its equilibrium value in time. Help support Wordnik (and make this page ad-free) by adopting the word Oscillator. When the Volume Oscillator rises above zero, it signifies that the shorter-term volume moving average has risen above the longer- term volume moving average, and thus, that the short-term volume trend is higher (i.e., more volume) than the longer- term volume trend. An oscillator that uses a quartz crystal to generate a frequency. 2 : a device for producing alternating current especially : a radio-frequency or audio-frequency. You can use the difference between two moving averages of volume to determine if the overall volume trend is increasing or decreasing. The Volume Oscillator displays the difference between two moving averages of a security's volume expressed as a percentage. The Volume Oscillator (VO) works on the technical premise that it is not the actual level of volume, but the change in volume relative to the recent past that has more technical significance. The stochastic oscillator (stochastic indicator) is a popular technical analysis tool that indicates momentum by comparing. 1/8/2024 0 Comments Tremulous rpg![]() Simple game similar to the classical game Marble Madness on the Amiga in the 80'sĬlone of a C64 game, the goal is to destroy the opponent's house with certain weather phenomenaĪ hack and slash action role-playing game (Humble Bundle version)Īn open-source, single-player, role-playing roguelike game set in the world of Eyal.Ī multi-purpose emulator with debugging functionality, currently only emulates gameboyĪn NSFW (18+) erotica game made by Fenoxo, Trials In Tainted SpaceĪ tilemap editor for Game Boy, GBC, GBA, or SNES projects. ![]() Dive into the mind of a traumatized young woman to learn and understand.
