UD Geologist Partners With NASA To Study Climate Change Through Glaciers

Courtesy of NASA

A University of Dayton geologist has been selected to work with NASA to study how climate change is impacting glaciers.

Scientists are working on a new type of data during the 18-month project using Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR), an imaging tool that can penetrate through clouds and thick snow, which will allow them to detect and understand how climate change is affecting glaciers.

"The glaciers can really teach us - show us - how much melting is happening; how the melting is taking place; how the glaciers are growing or reducing," Associate Professor Umesh Haritashya says. "Glaciers in general do not respond to the daily changes in the climate or weather. They respond in a long-term scale."

The project Haritashya pitched to NASA is one of 11 it selected to study hazards and global environmental change. The other studies focus on landslides, oil spills and other aspects. Some of his collaborators, who are not funded by NASA, include people from The Ohio State University and a scientist from the Indian Space Research Organization, which Haritashya says widens their perspective.

"As we work together in a multi-disciplined way - where different people can contribute from a different scientific background from different places in the world - it helps us better understand the complex problems in the modern world that we are facing."

The ASAR system will allow the team to see below the thin layer of sediment on the surface of the glacier.

"This synthetic aperture radar data is a lot more complex than what I've used in the past," Haritashya says in a press release. "In many ways, it's the future of satellite remote sensing for improved detection, characterization and understanding of Earth processes."

Haritashya says he's expecting the first set of data to come in the next few weeks. In two years, NASA and the Indian Space Research Organization will fly over Alaska, the Sierra Nevada and Cascade mountain ranges to collect images that show a detailed view of Earth.


Homework & Horizons

This morning, I’m still in bed, one arm flung over my face, I hear C’s voice:

“Mom, what is the horizon? Mom, what is the vanishing point? Mom, how many points of perspective can an artist have?”

“Uh you wanna bring me some coffee?” I know there is a tinge of pleading in my voice. The boys have a break from school today, and of course C decided to wake up extra early.

I feel a mug pressed into my hand; cold black coffee leftover from yesterday’s pot. That’ll work.

“Mom, what is the horizon? Mom, where is the vanishing point? Mom, how many points of perspective can an artist have?”

Sipping at the bitterness, one eye opens, then the other, “Need some context, please, what is this for?”

tick tick tick, I’m waiting for the cogs to start spinning… Sip.

“In a landscape drawing the horizon is the line where the sky meets the ground…” sip.

“The vanishing point is when a line or object goes beyond the horizon…” sip.

“One point perspective means one vanishing point on the horizon, two point perspective means two horizons, and each object has two vanishing points to connect with…” sip.

“An artist can have as many perspectives as their skill level allows.” Sip.

scribble scribble scribble, “K, thanks.”

Of course, now I’m awake and left to my own thoughts. I didn’t tell C what I really think and feel about horizons; those imaginary lines boxing us in. The unreachable, untouchable plateaus that are supposed to tell us when we’ve arrived. Horizons mark the ‘there’ in ‘over there’. I didn’t tell him how often I feel hemmed in by horizons even though I know it’s all an illusion.

Vanishing points, to me, are the moments of heartbreak. The moment when what you want is no longer sustainable and you turn your back on something or someone you would have made the center of your world, but now must fade into the unreachable distance.

Perspective… I meant what I said about the skill level. You can see as many points of view as you have the patience and tolerance to stand. There is a mastery to broadening one’s perspective, built upon experiences and the confrontation of fears, a process repeatable and reliable.

Fennec Fox As A Pet

Fennec Fox As A Pet

The Fennec fox is an exquisite, clean, friendly and loving animal that can be easily domesticated. Nonetheless, you can not expect to easily take this lovely creature home. Essentially, this is because the animal would die very quickly in its new habitat that we call home.

If it survives, it will probably lead a miserable life despite the fact that you give it loads of love and care. Besides, in many international locations, the possession of Fennec foxes is illegal. This is largely due to the truth that the Fennec fox is native to the Sahara deserts, but in addition they exist within the Arabian Peninsula.

The significance of habitat
Habitat is essential in tracing the outlines of the evolution of fauna and flora species which adapt to the environment. More precisely, the radical nature of the unbearable desert local weather is the main factor which, by millennia, has fine-tuned the physical frame and habits of the Fennec fox.

Would you keep an Emperor penguin as a pet in your house? Could you provide an extensive frozen rocky place at -forty °C, battered by endless blinding blizzards? I do not think so. Not even a zoo can optimally recreate that habitat.

In the same way, it is not possible for us to recreate the desert in our homes. The Fennec fox may very well be a wonderful pet in an oasis situated within the desert or on the outskirts of 1; however because it has been particularly adapted to survive in the Saharan heat, it would degenerate in our delicate climate.

The morphology of the Fennec fox
The Fennec fox is the smallest of the canidae family, even smaller than a Chihuahua dog. It weighs between 1 and 1.5 kg (2.2 and 3.three lbs). Its body measures no more than 21 cm (0.6 ft) as much as its tail. An adult Fennec fox does not measure any more than forty one cm (1.3 ft), and its tail is between 20 and 30 cm (0.6 and 1 ft). It has bushy pads on its toes to stop them from burning on the hot sand.

However, the physical attribute that distinguishes it from different foxes is its pair of spectacular hyper-developed ears. These ears have a purpose. The primary is to vent heat collected of their tiny body. The second purpose is to seize even the slightest sound produced by their prey.

The Fennec fox's dense coat is sand-colored on the back and sides whilst the belly is a greyish-white and wispier than the hair on its back.

Behavioural habits of the Fennec fox
The Fennec fox is nocturnal. Their food regimen consists of rodents, reptiles, bugs, eggs, birds and fruit corresponding to dates, blackberries and berries. They are capable of jumping a considerable height which helps them hunt and combat when predators attack.

The caracal and African owl are their important rivals. Fennec foxes live in underground burrows (up to 10 meters deep), where the temperature is lower than that of the outside. Within the wild they live for approximately 10-12 years.

The domesticated Fennec fox
You probably have been irresponsible and made the mistake of adopting a Fennec fox, because you've got seen it in a television advert and discover it very cute, you need to know that the Fennec fox is strictly nocturnal. In case you confine it in a cage at night time, it will die.

When you let it loose, it will tear aside cushions in an try to hide meals or make a hole within the sofa or mattress to make a burrow so it feels comfortable and warm in your home.

The Fennec fox can dig as much as 6 meters (19.6 ft) of earth per day. If kept in a garden, it will most likely escape and any dog might go after it. For those who live in a flat, life can be worse for it. The Fennec fox has an awesome leaping ability and can get on any table or shelf, destroying everything on them.

If you have any sort of inquiries pertaining to where and how you can use Fennec fox breeders, you could call us at our own web site.

Tracing a former employer and /or their insurers is not necessarily difficult. An experienced asbestosis lawyer will carry out detailed investigation into a number of official database sources But there can be a hurdle to overcome if the original firm no longer exists in its original form. In one recent case, a maintenance engineer was exposed to asbestos at a company that would later come under the wing of a parent company with a different name.

An asbestosis victim’s former company can sometimes be taken over and trade under a different name or is incorporated into another organisation. Over a period of time, a complex corporate structure may evolve comprising subsidiaries and holding companies spread among a number of countries.

Current employers may deny all historical liability

Where a former company is no longer in it’s original structure, determining employer liability to pay mesothelioma compensation may not always be so straightforward. Claimants have always faced a significant difficulty in establishing one or more former employers’ liability for preventing or minimising the potential health risk of exposure, which eventually leads to mesothelioma or an asbestos-related disease. On average, between 30 to 40 years may elapse before the first asbestosis symptoms appear.

If a claimant was employed at several different companies during their working lifetime, the company may dispute the levels of any contributory exposure to a victim’s mesothelioma at their workplace, compared to any exposure levels at any other workplaces. However, if the company has changed ownership, the current employers may deny all historical liability. In one recent tragic case, a former employee was exposed to asbestos dust at the same plant where he worked for more than 40 years but which later changed ownership.

Continually exposed to asbestos-filled dust

The claimant had started working in the 1970s at the plant where he daily maintained the brakes and clutches in cranes and vehicles. The 1960s and 70s were the peak period for asbestos use throughout British industry, and the mineral had been part of automobile brake pads and other friction products since cylinder brake linings were first developed in 1902.

Up to 35 per cent of a brake lining product could contain asbestos fibres used to supply structural reinforcement and heat resistance. Continual abrasion releases microscopic asbestos fibres into the atmosphere and large amounts of asbestos material is trapped inside the brake housing or clutch space, which is then released when replacement or repair work is carried out.

The victim often worked 12-hour shifts nearly seven days a week and was almost likely to have been continually exposed to airborne asbestos dust. As is often recounted in witness statements by industrial employees during much of the middle decades of the 20th century, he was not supplied with any protective equipment nor provided with a ventilated working space.

Each company sought to deny their liability and tried to pass the blame

Following a diagnosis of mesothelioma confirmed, aged just 65, his former employers were traced and a mesothelioma claim pursued. It was found that the original plant later came under another company, and both become part of a new parent organisation. When the civil action began, each company sought to deny their liability and tried to pass the blame to their insurers despite being part of the same group.

Tragically the victim passed away 7 months later, just before his case was due to start. However, as a result of persistent denials and trying to avoid liability by the defendants, there was a two year delay before an out of court settlement was reached with the family. The Judge was moved to criticise the defendant’s tactics as “verging towards an abuse of legal process” and one family member said that while the defendants “finally admitted responsibility” they had not apologised nor said they were sorry for the long delay they had caused.

Protection for all employees only started to slowly improve from the 1970s

A majority of asbestos claim cases involve workers who began their working lives in their teens or early twenties with a firm at the height of Britain’s widespread industrial use of asbestos as an insulating material. Protection for all employees likely to be exposed to asbestos only started to slowly improve from the 1970s.

Introduction of The Asbestos Regulations 1969, aimed to control the levels of exposure to asbestos in workplaces and The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, required employers to conduct their work in such a way that their employees will not be exposed to health and safety risks. The introduction of The Control of Asbestos at Work Regulations 1987 applied to all work activities directly involving asbestos.

EU’s plans on encryption: What is needed?

By EDRi · October 16, 2017

On 18 October 2017, the European Commission is expected to publish a Communication on counter-terrorism, which will include some lines on encryption.

What is encryption? Why is it important?

When we send an encrypted message (or store an encrypted document), no one else but the intended recipient can read it using a unique key. So even if someone manages to intercept the message when it’s on its way to the recipient, they will not be able to read its contents without the key – they can only see something that looks like a random set of characters. Encryption ensures the confidentiality of our personal data and company secrets. This is not only essential for our democratic rights and freedoms, but it also promotes trust in our digital infrastructure and communications, which is vital for innovation and economic growth. For example, encryption is essential for securing online banking transactions, and protecting the confidentiality of sources in journalism.

Encryption workarounds needed?

The European Commission has come under pressure from some EU Member States to take actions to address the perceived problem of data not being available to law enforcement authorities, due to encryption. This issue is frequently hyped as a major problem, and certain politicians have suggested simplistic and counter-productive policies to weaken encryption as a “solution” to them.

There are several techniques that law enforcement authorities use to access encrypted data. One approach consists in obtaining the key to decrypt the data, for instance, through a physical search when the key is saved on a USB drive. The key can also be obtained from the user directly, for example via social engineering or legal obligation. Another approach is to access the decrypted data through bypassing the key by exploiting a flaw or weakness in the system or by installing software or spyware. However, the existence of workarounds does not mean that law enforcement should resort to them nor that they would be necessary or proportionate, or even compatible with human rights law.

From a technical point of view, encryption cannot be weakened “just a little”, without potentially introducing additional vulnerabilities, even if unintentionally. When there is a vulnerability, anyone can take advantage of it, not just the police or intelligence services. Sooner or later, a secret vulnerability will be exploited by a malicious user, perhaps the same one it was meant to be safeguarding us from. Law enforcement aims are legitimate. However, as pointed out by the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA), limiting the use of encryption will create vulnerabilities, lower trust in the economy and damage civil society and industry alike.

What should the European Union do?

A more balanced approach is needed, which avoids much of the rhetoric that is often heard in relation to encryption. Such an approach would recognise a variety of options for addressing this issue without compromising everybody’s security or violating human rights.

Saying “no” to backdoors is a step into the right direction, but not the end of the debate, as there are still many ways to weaken encryption. The answer to security problems like those created by terrorism cannot be the creation of security risks. On the contrary, the EU should focus on stimulating the development and the use of high-grade standards for encryption, and not in any way undermine the development, production or use of high-grade encryption.

We are concerned by the potential inclusion of certain aspects of the forthcoming Communication, such as the increase of capabilities of Europol and what this may entail, and references to removal of allegedly “terrorist” content without accountability in line with the Commission’s recent Communication on tackling illegal content online. We remain vigilant regarding the developments in the field of counter-terrorism.

Gs Pay Scale Los Angeles 2022

Gs Pay Scale Los Angeles 2022 – What is the OPM PayScale? What is it? OPM pay scale refers to a formula created in the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) which calculates salaries on federal employee. It was created in 2021 to aid federal agencies in effectively in managing budgets. The OPM pay scale is the ability to easily compare salary levels of employees and take into consideration numerous factors.

Gs Pay Scale Los Angeles 2022

The OPM pay scale splits the pay scale into four categories, based on each team member’s position within the government. Below is what the overall schedule OPM uses to calculate its national team’s member pay scale, based on next year’s an anticipated 2.6 percent across-the-board increase. Three broads  categories within the federal gs level. However, not all agencies adhere to all three categories. For instance, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Defense (DOD) does not use the same categories system. Though they share similar General Schedule OPM uses to calculate their employees’ pay, they have different structure for government gs levels.

Gs Pay Scale Los Angeles 2022

To check more about Gs Pay Scale Los Angeles 2022 click here.

The general schedule that the OPM employs to calculate its employees’ compensation comprises six levels of pay: the GS-8. This level is designed for jobs that require a mid-level of expertise. The majority of mid-level jobs fit this broad level; for instance, GS-7 employees work in their respective departments, such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and an agency known as the National Security Agency (NSA) as well as those employed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The majority of other jobs in the government including white-collar jobs belong to the GS-8.

The second level in the OPM pay scale is that of the graduated scale. The graded scale has grades ranging from zero up to nine. The lowest grade is used to determine those with the lowest quality mid-level positions, while the highest  quality determines the top white collar posts.

The third stage in the OPM pay scale determines what number of years a team member will be paid. This is what determines the maximum amount of pay the team member can receive. Federal employees might be offered promotions or transfers after a certain number months. However they can also choose to retire within a specified number to years. If a federal employee retires, their initial salary will drop until a new hire is made. Someone must be appointed to a new federal position in order for this to happen.

Another component of an aspect of the OPM pay schedule are the 21 days before and after every holiday. It is the number of days will be determined by the scheduled holiday. In general, the longer the holiday schedule, the higher wages will begin to be.

The last part of the pay scale is the number of annual salary raise opportunities. Federal employees are compensated in accordance with their annual salary, regardless of their position. So, the employees with the most years of working experience typically have the largest increases throughout they’re careers. Individuals with just one year’s working experience also will have the biggest gains. Other variables like the amount of experience earned by applicants, the amount of education he or she has received, and the level of competition among applicants can determine whether someone will earn a higher or lower salary increase.

The United States government is interested in maintaining competitive salary structures for federal team member pay scales. For this reason, most federal agencies base local pay rates upon the OPM regional pay rate. Locality pay rates for federal jobs are based upon statistics that show the rates and incomes of people who work in the locality.

Another component that is part of the OPM salary scale is the General Schedule (GS) score made by filling out an W-2 form. The score is the basis for determining the salary in a wide variety of positions. A United States department of labor produces a General schedule each year for different jobs. All positions included in General Schedule pay ranges have the identical minimum and maximum rates of pay. Therefore, the highest rank on the General Schedule will always have the highest General Schedule rate.

The third component of OPM pay scale is the pay range overtime. OTI overtime rates are determined when you multiply the normal rate of pay by the overtime rate. For example, if one worked for the federal government and earned more than twenty dollars an hour, they would be paid up to 45 dollars according to the general schedule. For team members, however, anyone who works between fifty and 60 weeks per week would be paid an amount that is twice the rate of regular employees.

Federal government agencies utilize two different systems when determining their pay scales for OTI/GS. Two additional systems are two systems: the Local name request (NLR) pay scale for employees as well as General schedule OPM. While both systems impact employees in different ways, the OPM test is determined by this Local NLR name demand. If you have any questions regarding the Local Name Request Pay Scale or the General OPM schedule, your best option is to get in touch with your local office. They can answer any questions that you might have about the two different systems and how the test is conducted.


This is the first feature film to be produced by Blind Faith Productions although Rotonda has a large body of work including producing feature films such as “Pariah” as well as several reality television shows.

Seven Feathers hosted the premiere of the horror movie to an audience of over 200 viewers, with two more screenings on the following Saturday. The event was free to the public with a donation of two canned food items for local food pantries.

In attendance were much of the film’s cast and crew including director Vince Rotonda, producer Amy Loeber, actor and writer Brian Schaefer and local Grants Pass and Canyonville actor and comedian Juan Canopii, among others. Canopii played an integral part in getting the premiere to Seven Feathers.

“The Awakening” tells the story of a group of friends who receive a mysterious invitation to the “ultimate party” in the hills outside of Hollywood. As the story progresses, the partiers discover something far more sinister is at work.

The film took two years to produce and was written by Brian Schaefer based on a concept he had developed with Rotonda. The film’s inspiration came as a departure from the torture and gore-based aspect of modern, mainstream horror films. “When was the last time you watched a film where a bunch of kids go out into the woods and get killed? Nowadays it’s all about torture, and though those types of films have their place, we wanted to make something different,” explained Rotonda.

Both Loeber and Rotonda expressed hope that students will be inspired by their independent film and learn that a film can be produced without a big budget.

Part of the planning for the screenings was geared specifically towards a college audience, and the event was partially meant to help students interested in learning about film production. The event’s planners, for instance, worked with the casino to allow students under 21 to attend.

Blind Faith’s hope is that students will see the film, be inspired and take the initiative to make a film of their own. They suggest that students take some classes if they are available and simply start filming. “It’s important to just get started. Don’t wait to put your idea out there.” Rotonda offered.

A slab foundation is a single layer of concrete that is put in place to support a structure. The concrete is usually several inches thick. Slab foundations are relatively inexpensive to build and extremely sturdy. They are frequently used in warm climates, especially areas with clay soil.

There are many different types of slab foundations. Most are built with footings which are thickened areas of slab located under load bearing walls. A load bearing wall is a wall that holds up the structure. If a wall isn?t load bearing, it is called a curtain wall. Most curtain walls are used for dividing rooms.

Foundation footings are wider than the foundation?s base and often reinforced with steel. They transfer the load of the building to the foundation and help distribute the weight of the building over the soil or rock.

How the foundation and footings are constructed depends on several factors, including soil and climate. In places where the ground freezes, footings are created first, below the frost line. After the footing has been placed, the building?s walls are constructed. Once the walls are in place, the slab is created.

A slab-on-grade foundation is used in locations where the ground doesn?t freeze. The slab, which oftentimes rests on gravel, is poured all at once. There is no space between the slab and the ground, and the edges of the slab are made thicker than the inside of the slab.

Some slab foundations have a portion of the foundation above the ground, also called a stem wall. Stem walls are usually made of cinder blocks that connect the building?s foundation with its vertical walls. In addition to increasing the structural integrity of the foundation, stem walls help protect the vertical walls from moisture and insects.

Before a slab foundation is put in place, the ground needs to be graded. Grading, which is done with heavy equipment, produces a level base. Grading is also used to create a slope that will ensure water drains away from the structure. Water can not only damage a foundation, but also weaken the building.

Many times, in addition to supporting the structure, a slab foundation will also serve as the building?s floor. Slab foundations also prevent pests, like termites, from getting under and into the house.

The downside of a slab foundation is loss of heat when the ground?s temperature becomes significantly lower than the temperature inside the building. There is also the potential for flood damage.

Another problem with slab foundations is foundation settlement. Most houses will settle over time. Too much settlement can cause foundation cracks and other structural issues. Soil that hasn?t been compacted properly can increase the amount of settlement and potential for foundation damage causing the need for home foundation repair.

The objective of this paper was to study the transport and deposition of non-spherical oblate and prolate shaped particles for the flow in a tube with a radial suction velocity field, with an application to experiments related to composite manufacturing. The transport of the non-spherical particles is governed by a convective diffusion equation for the probability density function, also called the Fokker–Planck equation, which is a function of the position and orientation angles. The flow is governed by the Stokes equation with an additional radial flow field. The concentration of particles is assumed to be dilute. In the solution of the Fokker–Planck equation, an expansion for small rotational Peclet numbers and large translational Peclet numbers is considered. The solution can be divided into an outer region and two boundary layer regions. The outer boundary layer region is governed by an angle-averaged convective-diffusion equation. The solution in the innermost boundary layer region is a diffusion equation including the radial variation and the orientation angles. Analytical deposition rates are calculated as a function of position along the tube axis. The contribution from the innermost boundary layer called steric- interception deposition is found to be very small. Higher order curvature and suction effects are found to increase deposition. The results are compared with results using a Lagrangian tracking method of the same flow configuration. When compared, the deposition rates are of the same order of magnitude, but the analytical results show a larger variation for different particle sizes. The results are also compared with numerical results, using the angle averaged convective-diffusion equation. The agreement between numerical and analytical results is good.

How Much Ground Coffee per Cup for a Perfect Brew?

If you are a coffee lover and like to experiment when brewing coffee in your coffee maker or with other methods, it is important to know how much ground coffee per cup is required. You may think this is a random thing, but it is a fine art, and there are entire websites and books devoted to brewing the perfect coffee.

If you want to refine your skill and brew methods, in this article, we look at how to measure coffee and how many tablespoons of coffee grounds or coffee beans make the perfect cup!

Considerations for Coffee Making

Before looking at the actual numbers and values, it is essential to make a few considerations first. Brewing coffee isn’t something you should simply jump into — it is something to take your time over and learn.

What Is Meant by ‘Per Cup’?

Throughout this article and any other coffee guide, you will often see the term ‘per cup’. This means a cup of coffee, obviously. But what type of cup? How big is the cup? How much do you fill it by?

There are so many variables that it is important to have something more definite to work with. A cup isn’t a specific volume or unit of measurement.

However, when referring to ‘a cup’ in the coffee industry, there is a commonly accepted associated measurement. Commonly, one cup is equal to 150ml or 5 fluid ounces.

You don’t have to stick rigidly to this measurement, but if the term ‘one cup’ is used throughout this article, we mean the standardized 150ml volume.

What Type of Measurement Are You Using?

Another variable when looking at the amount of coffee needed is the measurement you use for the coffee itself.

We appreciate this may sound confusing, but if you stick to one type of measurement for your cup and one type of measurement for your coffee ground, you can’t go wrong.

The common coffee measure methods include:

  • Grams of coffee
  • Tablespoons of coffee
  • Scoops of coffee

We find that tablespoons are the easiest measuring method to use. It requires the least effort and is widely used by coffee manufacturers etc. However, there is some variance, and it is not 100% accurate.

For example, is it a level tablespoon or a heaped tablespoon? If you use this measurement, you should be clear on how full the tablespoon should be.

Measuring coffee in grams is the most accurate method. You can be precise and get enough coffee to create a fantastic drink. However, this generally requires extra work and time as you will need to use weighing scales first.

Scoops are also relatively easy, but they are not as widely accepted as tablespoons of coffee.

How Do You Like Your Coffee?

Lastly, you should also think about how you like your brewed coffee. The correct amount of coffee may not necessarily align with your tastes and suitabilities.

For example, you may prefer weak coffee and thus need to use fewer coffee beans or grounds than advised. Alternatively, you may love the taste and bitterness and thus love strong coffee. If so, you may need to use more coffee than advised.

The key is to use the coffee ratios and amounts listed in this article as guidelines. You should then adjust this if necessary to suit your preferences. Not everyone likes their cup of coffee the same, and this is OK!

How Much Ground Coffee Per Mug – A Simple Guide

Now that you have thought about how you like your coffee and which measurements to use, we can jump into the guide.

The Golden Ratio

measuring freshly ground beans

Did you know that there is a coffee-to-water ratio that has been scientifically developed to create the perfect cup of coffee?

This is known as the Golden Ratio. The Golden Ratio was developed by the SCAA – Speciality Coffee Association of America. They developed it so that people would have a clear idea of how to mix water and coffee.

The ratio is 1:18, where 1 is coffee and 18 is water.

Therefore, for a standard cup of coffee, we can simply divide the volume by 18 to get how much coffee to use!

One Cup = 150ml = 150 / 18 = 8.3g

As a result, we can now answer our initial question — how many grams of coffee per cup do you need. The commonly accepted measurement is 8.3g of ground coffee per 150ml cup. You can use this as the basis of calculations if you want to make coffee for your friends and family — simply multiply the number of cups by 8.3.

Comparison Table for Grounds and Tablespoons of Coffee

So, we now have the answer: you need 8.3 grams of coffee for each cup. But what if you want to make more than one cup? What if you don’t have any measuring equipment to use?

To help, we have converted the golden ratio into tablespoons of coffee which is a much easier and universal measurement to use.

  • 1 Cup of Coffee (150ml) = 8.3g of coffee = 1.6 tablespoons
  • 2 Cups of Coffee (300ml) = 16.6g of coffee = 3.2 tablespoons
  • 5 Cups of Coffee (750ml) = 41.5g of coffee = 8 tablespoons
  • 10 Cups of Coffee (1500ml) = 83g of coffee = 16 tablespoons
  • 12 Cups of Coffee (1800ml) = 99.6g of coffee = 18.2 tablespoons

Now, this may still not seem easy. How do you measure 0.6 tablespoons of coffee, for example?

The commonly accepted measure is that 1 tablespoon of coffee is equal to approximately 5 grams of coffee. A level tablespoon of coffee is generally less than this and equals approximately 4 grams of coffee. Alternatively, a rounded/heaped tablespoon of coffee is approximately 7 grams.

As you can see, using tablespoons of coffee can create some inconsistency. To be consistent, you have to work out how many tablespoons to use and remain consistent with how much you fill your spoon.

For the most accurate results, it is much more reliable to use weighing scales and weigh the number of ground beans or ground coffee exactly. There is no room for error here — if you get the weight right, you make your coffee right!

How to Brew Great Coffee — Tips and Advice

You should now have a brilliant idea of how much coffee to use! To help further in your brewing endeavours, we have provided some simple tips below.

Water Temperature Is Crucial

This may seem obvious, but the water temperature is more important than you may think.

The temperature of the water and brewing method affects how much coffee is extracted from the ground coffee and is distilled into your drink.

The ideal water temperature for brewing your coffee is between 195 to 205 degrees Fahrenheit or 90 to 96 degrees Celsius.

If you brew using water colder than this, you may find that your coffee is weak. Alternatively, if you brew with boiling water at a much higher temperature than this, you may find that the flavour and quality of the coffee are lost.

Measuring Coffee Gives Consistently Great Results

If you want your cup of coffee to taste amazing every time, measurements are essential.

Over time, you may be able to measure by eye and not need to be as precise. However, to start, we advise measuring how much coffee you use. This will make sure that you can enjoy your cup of coffee to the maximum each time!

Using the Right Grinder Is Also Important

If you are using whole coffee beans instead of coffee grounds, you will have to use a coffee grinder.

It is important to use a high-quality grinder and the right type. This can greatly affect your coffee-making experience and the quality of your drink.

Ideally, you should use a burr or mill grinder. These grinders provide better consistency. As a result, you can be more accurate when measuring your coffee.

A Percolator Can Help Save on Costs of Coffee Grinds and Coffee Beans

There are many different ways you can create coffee — coffee machines, drip coffee, instant coffee, or a percolator, for example. These different methods all have their pros and cons.

One of the most effective methods to use in terms of cost is the percolator. Using a percolator means that you recycle a large percentage of the coffee beans or coffee grounds.

This is because you do not have to empty the percolator after each use. Instead, you can simply top it up with some freshly roasted beans or coffee grounds each time you use it.

However, bear in mind that percolator coffee is usually stronger. Also, it can be trickier to get the correct amount of coffee as you have to account for the used beans/grounds already at the bottom of the percolator.

Do What Works for You!

Our last tip is to use the brewing method, measurements, and type of coffee that works for you! We have given you guidelines for using the ideal amount of coffee.

However, after testing this, you may find that it doesn’t work for you, and you don’t like the coffee taste. That’s fine — as a result, whether you are using a coffee machine, espresso machine, or percolator, do what works for you.

Coffee Grounds FAQs

Is it possible to get the amount of coffee wrong?

Not really. Remember that these measurements and ratios are purely guidelines. There is no absolute method you must achieve. Worst case scenario, you simply create one cup of coffee that is too strong or too weak. Simply adjust your measurements and try again — your next coffee brewing experience should be better!

What are coffee beans measurement conversions?

While one cup (150ml) typically requires 8.3g of ground coffee, this equates to approximately 70 coffee beans. Remember that a tablespoon of coffee beans contains roughly 4-7g of coffee. This is an approximation, however, and obviously depends on the size of the beans and the cup!

Just the Right Java

We hope you have benefited from this article on how many teaspoons of coffee per cup to use. Making coffee is an art form! It takes skills, practise, and patience to brew coffee perfectly.

The key is to understand the basics, such as the ideal coffee to water ratio and how much ground coffee in a cup is used for different strength brews. However, the most important thing is that you use brewing methods and ratios that produce great coffee that you enjoy!

Smart city IoT services creation through large-scale collaboration

Abstract: Smart cities solutions are often monolithically implemented, from sensors data handling through the provided services. The same challenges are regularly faced by different developers, for every new solution in a new city. Expertise and know-how can be reused and the effort shared. In this article, we present the methodologies to minimize the efforts of implementing new smart city solutions and maximizing the sharing of components. The final target is to have a live technical community of smart city application developers. The results of this activity come from the implementation of 35 city services in 27 cities between Europe and South Korea. To share efforts, we encourage developers to devise applications using a modular approach. Single-function components that are reusable by other city services are packaged and published as standalone components, named atomic services. We identify 15 atomic services addressing smart city challenges in data analytics, data evaluation, data integration, data validation, and visualization. Thirty-eight instances of the atomic services are already operational in several smart city services. We detail in this article, as atomic service examples, some data predictor components. Furthermore, we describe real-world atomic services usage in the scenarios of Santander and three Danish cities. The resulting atomic services also generate a side market for smart city solutions, allowing expertise and know-how to be reused by different stakeholders.

Australian Research Identifies Kidney-Protecting Gene

A gene called VANGL1 has been found to help stop the immune system from attacking the kidney. But Australian researchers say the genetic mutation, which is present in about 15% of the population worldwide, can cause renal disease in patients with diabetes and other autoimmune conditions.

The mutation is highly prevalent among indigenous people on the Tiwi Islands, 80 kilometers from the city of Darwin in the Northern Territory. According to the study, just less than 50% of the islands’ residents have the genetic mutation.

The islands’ recorded rates of kidney disease are four times those of mainland indigenous Australians and about 11 times that of non-Indigenous Australians, according to researchers.

Dr. Simon Jiang is from the John Curtin School of Medical Research at Australian National University. He says the mutation is mostly benign in healthy adults.

“If your body is not inflamed and you are otherwise healthy, it is probably not too much of an issue. It is when you have another condition that occurs on top of it. And so in the Tiwi Islands, rates of infection, of diabetes and probably some immune diseases, are a lot higher than the rest of Australia. And so, when you have that process happening within your body, what is initially a reasonably benign mutation suddenly takes on a new turn and becomes something that is really bad news for the kidney,” Jiang said.

The study could lead to better transplant screening that would identify potential donors who have the genetic mutation.

The study was published Wednesday in the journal Cell Reports Medicine.

Assessment for ADHD in Adults

What is an ADHD assessment for adults?

ADHD in adults cannot be diagnosed by a single test. Instead, doctors usually rely on several pieces of information to assess whether a person meets the diagnostic criteria for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

Many doctors find it useful (and some may even request) to have information from a psycho-educational assessment to help them make their diagnosis.

Why getting a diagnosis is important

ADHD cannot be treated if it is not diagnosed. When ADHD is not diagnosed and is left untreated, it can have severe psychological, financial, academic, and social ramifications for the individual.

In addition to impairing social and occupational functioning, untreated ADHD increases the risk of developing comorbid disorders like anxiety, depression, personality disorders, or antisocial behavior.

At Blake Psychology, ADHD assessment services for adults with a licensed psychologist consist of:

1. Clinical Interview

  • To gather information on the symptoms (current and past), and assess their severity and duration,
  • To help understand the impact of your symptoms on your life (functioning at school or work, relationships, etc),
  • To review whether there is a potential family history of ADHD,
  • to help rule out other possible explanations for your difficulties (e.g., anxiety, bipolar disorder).

2. Evaluation

  • To assess both current and childhood symptoms of ADHD (filled out by you),
  • To assess current symptoms (filled out by someone who knows you well currently),
  • To assess childhood symptoms (filled out by someone who knew you well during childhood – a parent or sibling),
  • To assess other psychological/cognitive/emotional issues you might be experiencing, like depression or anxiety disorders.

3. Diagnosis

After all the data has been collected, a final diagnosis is made by a licensed psychologist based on the evaluation results.

4. Feedback session

Once testing, scoring, and report writing are complete, you will receive a report synthesizing all of the information from the interview, questionnaires, and school documentation.

The diagnostic assessment will contain the psychologist’s impressions and opinions on the underlying cause of your difficulties and will outline recommendations tailored specifically to you.

At the feedback session, the psychologist will go through the report with you to help you understand it and answer any questions that you might have.

They will also spend time explaining any recommendations and new strategies that can help you with your difficulties. If the recommendations include psychotherapy, we will be happy to refer you to one of Blake Psychology’s practitioners.

What is Networking?

Networking is the action or process of interacting with others to exchange information and develop professional or social contacts. Networking is a lifestyle process that has become more common, especially with the enhancement of social media. There are hundreds of networking tips and tricks that will drive you to a successful career.

How to Network Effectively

Creating your network could be as simple as getting the contact information of your educators, or work colleagues, or creating a social media account. Use social media platforms, especially LinkedIn, to broaden your connections and touch base with old classmates, friends, family, etc.  You may even find a job that a connection works at, in which case you may want to ask for a referral from that connection. When creating your “image”, be sure to act professional or appropriate in public environments because you never know who you will meet.  You will also want to update your resume and profile with relevant information about your life. Lastly, attending local networking events can get you to meet connections and friends that might take you far in life.

Networking Mistakes You Should Avoid at All Costs

When you are creating an image of yourself, never lie. Lying can not only create a new image of you to the “connections” you made but it can truly hurt your career. If you proceed to lie to someone who holds a vast network, the word can travel. It is always a great thing to be curious and ask questions but when meeting someone for the first time whether it is random or planned, don’t ask too many questions. Do not ask questions or speak about their personal life unless they direct the conversation that way. If the connection is like family to you then the mistakes would change but you should still never impose on their personal business or ask too much of them. Be respectful of their time. This statement is so simple yet so serious. There is a time and a place for everything in life and if you keep asking or taking up the useful time of this person, they may not want to network with you any longer. You need to understand that everyone has a personal life and there is a time and place for business talk. Do not overstep those boundaries and you will make it far in the networking world!

The Importance of Networking in Your Career and How You Can Get Started Today

Networking could be such a vital tip for people at all different stages of their careers. Whether you are still in college, starting your career, or ending your career, networking is always valuable. You can start today with a simple conversation on the train, or airport/plane, or by creating a social media account. There are people in the world waiting to meet you and they don’t even know it yet. Networking works in mysterious ways and you never know who you can meet.

What is a Phone Interview?

Phone interviews have become more common thanks to the shift of centuries and an abrupt pandemic. Due to COVID-19, many companies have started their interview process with a phone interview/phone screening. This is when you receive a phone call from either the company’s hiring manager or recruiter to discuss a few things related to your application and the job opening.

What is the Purpose of a Phone Interview?

Employers, Recruiters, and Hiring Managers start the interviewing process with a phone interview so they can get to know the candidate better. Employers will typically ask you a few questions to get the feel for you during this step. From how you answer their questions, your attitude during the call, and so on, the employer will get an idea if you are the right fit for this job.

What Types of Questions May Occur During an On-Phone Interview?

During phone interviews, you will be asked a handful of questions. The employer may choose to start with questions about you. Such as, “Can you explain your work experience and how it relates to this job opening?”, “What skills do you provide that make you a great fit for this role?”, “What is one strength and one weakness about yourself in a work field?”. After you have answered this the employer will proceed to give you a description of the job and where you would come into play. They may ask you questions like, “What is your availability?”, “Have you ever performed a role like this before?”, and “What are one things that you feel confident about and one thing you feel nervous about in this job?” After you conclude this part, the employer has a better idea of who you are, what you are capable of doing, and how you work.

How can I Prepare for a Phone Interview?

Preparing for a phone interview is said to be easier than preparing for an in-person interview. Essentially, both interview processes could ask you the same questions but most people feel a lot more comfortable answering these questions over the phone. If you are a nervous interviewer, take a deep breath because phone interviewing is less nerve-racking. If you have a phone interview, always have been in a silent area with the best ability to have your background professional. Your outfit for an in-person interview could be the same or different from a phone interview. If there are no cameras involved in the phone interview (on the cell phone), you may wear whatever you feel comfortable in. However, if there are cameras on (like a Zoom call), you should proceed to dress business professional or casual like you would for any job interview.

When it comes to phone interviews, you have less to prepare for but you need more ways to prove that you are the right candidate beyond your resume. Always be a confident speaker and think before you answer any of their questions. Have a great attitude and use proper wording when speaking to the interviewer.

Since the global pandemic, COVID-19, the world had to face changes to adapt, especially in the work world. Interviews were being done over the phone or on video platforms like Zoom. Although some companies were always interviewing like this, many companies and job seekers had to adjust to this work and interview lifestyle.

Sometimes it feels like we have been in this pandemic for years and are just getting the hang of it. Some people who have never done an interview online should follow 4 important tips from us at Cyber Job Central. We are a remote company that knows purely about online interviewing.

The first step is a strong PSA for setting up your space before the interview. If interviewers can see your personal space, make sure that your space is clean, tidy, and professional. You may also use some of the background green screens that platforms like Zoom, Teams, and more offer. You wouldn’t want your potential job to be at risk because you show them you are not put together and are unprofessional.

A second step is to review your outfit for work-appropriate matters. Even though your interview is online and they can only see your upper half, it is always better to get fully dressed up. Getting fully dressed up will make you feel and look more professional and confident. Avoid wearing T-shirts, tank tops, strapless tops, sweatshirts, and others along these lines.

Thirdly, check on your computer and the internet. If you always struggle with your internet while using your computer, it is time to fix that.  Nothing is more unprofessional than a candidate’s computer, camera, or microphone keeps freezing. This can cause you to have to reschedule or lose the job gig. You can use websites to check your internet speed and if it is laggy, go to a local library and hold your interview there.

Lastly, make sure your computer is on and do not disturb. There is nothing more unprofessional than a potential candidate’s computer blowing up with messages and emails during a virtual interview. There are settings for do not disturb or turning notifications off on all types of electronic devices.

If you follow these few steps, along with being professional through your body movements and words, you will have a successful interview process. Be sure to check out our job openings so you can get interviewed, at www.cyberjobcentral.com

On May 24th of 2022, we at Cyber Job Central wanted to hear your opinion or thoughts on if cyber jobs will be affected in the case of a recession. There is no 100% guarantee that the choice we side with is the whole truth of what could happen. However, with research from reliable sources and companies, we were able to come up with the decision of no. No, cyber jobs will not be affected if there were to be a recession.

Let’s look into what our social media audience had to say about our intriguing question. We posted this poll on 3 different platforms and received some amazing responses. Starting with Instagram, we received a split decision from this poll. Having received a 50/50 response with about 40 participants, this was a great start. Next, we look into Twitter, where we received a smaller amount of participants but we still ended up with 60% of our audience thinking that cyber jobs will be affected if we went into a recession. Lastly, we have LinkedIn, which is where our poll came to life. We hit almost 100 participants, 35% of those responded yes, they will be affected and 65% of those responded no they will not be affected.

Now that we have shared our poll results with you, let’s discuss why we think that cyber jobs will not be affected by a recession. Technology jobs are pretty much recession-proof. After going through such a hard global pandemic, companies were forced to lay off workers, cut salaries, and so much more. A lot of tech companies did not face most of these struggles during COVID-19 because of the world we currently live in. Almost, if not everything, has been converted to an electronic platform. This is where tech jobs thrive the most. While people could lose their jobs in a recession, cyber jobs would continue to thrive for many reasons.

The main reason that people in cyber/technology fields would not be affected by a recession is that they can work from home. With the right access and the right equipment, cyber jobs can perform all of their duties from their home. Another main reason is because of the fear that is instilled in companies during a recession requires the help of a cyber worker. Many companies fear that a recession could cause hackers and cyber crimes against their companies so to handle this they will need a cyber professional who can monitor and protect their information. Finally, cyber/IT jobs are listed as the second-highest job that will survive a recession. This is because companies who had to change their whole daily functions around during a time like COVID needed IT workers. An example of this would be schools. Schools were closed for in-person classes and required online learning platforms for an unknown amount of time. During this time, schools need cyber professionals to help them learn, adjust, and fix any platform they were required to perform on.

Of course, as we stated above, there is no clear answer as to what will truly happen to the world of cybersecurity during a recession but with the knowledge and work efforts put in by these professionals, we can make it through. We can be a recession-proof industry. If you are in cybersecurity now and want to be prepared for your next opportunity or if you are already looking for your next opportunity, be sure to create your profile ready at www.cyberjobcentral.com

Below are some of the top resume tips so you can be noticed by hiring managers.

By: Victoria Mauro

Whether you are interested in finding your first job or your full-time career, you should always have a solid resume. A resume is where you list your accomplishments, skills, and previous experience. A resume can be what sets you apart from other candidates during the application process. To create a qualifying resume, you should check to see that your resume holds the following criteria.

First, be sure your resume holds a simplistic but classy structure. You should be using a font that is seen in Google Docs or Microsoft Word. Two fonts that are the most common and easiest to read are Times New Roman and Arial. As you fix your font style, be sure to check out the size of your font and the length of your resume. Typically, your resume should be no larger than size 12 font and no longer than 1-2 pages.

Next, look into the details that are highlighted on your resume. Start your resume with your name, city, email, phone number, and any socials you want to include. An example of a social platform that people put on their resume is their most used and appropriate, like LinkedIn. If you do hold social media platforms, make sure that they are up to date because hiring managers can see any information you post on the internet. Under your name and information, you should write an objective that caters to the job field in which you are applying. This should be a few sentences and will help hiring managers get a glimpse of why you want to perform the job they have listed. The last part of the introductory section is your skills. You will want to highlight some of your best strengths as well as some skills that you hold related to the job field.

 After you do this you will go into your education. Education should be ordered from your most recent education to your past education. If you are in college or out of college, you do not need to have your high school education on your resume. Then you will want to go into your work experience. This is similarly formatted to education where you list your work experience from most recent to past. Once you have listed both your education and work experience, it is time to add in any extra activities/volunteer work or awards that you have completed.

Finally, as you have gone through and listed all of these valuable pieces in your resume, be sure to add in details. For every education, work experience, and volunteer activity, you should have some information about your success or learning during these events. Do not write these details in paragraph form, it is best if you use bullet points that start with action words. An example of this would be,” – Delivered fast, professional, and kind service to customers during every shift”. You can have about 2-3 bullets for each education, work experience, and activity listed. But remember that you should be no longer than 1-2 pages so do not list everything you did in each section. Only list the important and relative content so that hiring managers can detect why you and your experience are good for their job role.

Keep your resume grammatically correct and clean so you can secure the job of your dreams!

Did you know that a cyberattack occurs every 39 seconds? If this leaves you feeling worried, distraught, or anxious, using an extra security measure, like two-factor authentication, can relieve this feeling by giving your accounts more protection than they had. Although having another security measure cannot 100% protect your account, it is the smartest thing to do to fight off those hackers.

Even if you were not aware of it, you have probably performed or utilized the two-factor authentication before. Two-Factor Authentication, also known as 2FA/TFA, is just another layer of security that assures the person getting onto an account is the correct person. The most common place people see a 2FA performed is on Google. When you sign on to your Google account on a new device it will ask you to perform two-factor authentication. Google will send a one-time verification code that can be sent to a device of choice. For example, you may choose between those locations if you have a backup email or a cell phone number. Once you have received this code, you will input it onto the Google website and if the code is correct, you will now have access to that Google account. This type of two-factor authentication is called a Device Based Challenge. This term is easy to recall because you are using a device to verify your identity.

However, if you do not want to perform this type of two-factor authentication, there is another type called the knowledge-based challenge. A knowledge-based challenge is when you are verifying your identity by answering questions based on personal information. An example of this would be when you are creating an account and it asks you to choose a security question like what is your mother’s maiden name? Although some may see the knowledge-based questions to be more secure because typically it is information no one will ever know, many still lean towards the device-based for better security.

Another excellent type of two-factor authentication is seen within the Google Authenticator application. Various companies and websites use Google Authenticator or a similar product to protect their company accounts and their accounts. Google Authentication is similar to a software token, where you sign onto your website and Google Authenticator sends you a code to sign on with. However, this code changes every 30 seconds allowing the use of each code to expire once it has gone past 30 seconds. This provides a wonderful wall for hackers because this code comes and goes and the chances they can guess the code are extremely slim. This platform is very similar to a device-based challenge if not considered the same thing. You still need a device to review these codes but it is better than a code sent to a text because these keep changing every 30 seconds.

Next time you worry about your account and information being stolen, make sure to utilize two-factor authentication.

What are fertilizers?

Fertilizers are food for plants: they provide nutrients for plants to grow and thrive.

A mineral plant nutrient is an element which is essential or beneficial for plant growth and development or for the quality attributes of the harvested product of a given plant species grown in its natural or cultivated environment

In addition to carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, which they get from the atmosphere and water, plants need 14 essential nutrients for their growth and health, which fertilizers provide.

19 Plant Nutrients for Improving and Protecting Plant Health

Plants use minerals present in the soil and water in order to grow and flourish. Just like with humans, if they don't get enough of these nutrients it can seriously affect their health. Ensuring proper plant nutrition by using fertilizers (organic and mineral) to supplement the nutrients already available in the soil is essential for plant health.

When to take anavar before workout

For this reason, when trying to build muscle and size, I take a protein shake both before and after my workout to maximize hypertrophy.

During the summer of 1967, known as the Summer of Love, a warped and deceptive criminal, Charles Manson, sought out young girls in a bid to control their lives. His demonic influence was such that he even managed to make them kill for him.

Much was known about the baiter, his relationship with Scientologists, the methods he used to involve wealthy people in his scams, but very little of the girls who followed him. This void was the inspiration for Emma Cline‘s first novel: The Girls.

In summer 2013, The Girls‘ author wrote a story with the title Marion. It ran in The Paris Review anticipating the novel’s content. It was about an eleven-year-old girl who grew up in a commune, and it already contains references to Manson. Marion is considered the focal point of The Girls. Then, in March 2014, Cline visited the historical site of the Manson family cult, where she came to a crucial reflection about the girls who moved from their families and were involved in Manson murderers. She affirmed:

“I wonder all the time how easily things could have turned out badly for me; my life gone curdled and sour, ending viciously.”

A coming-of-age novel

The Girls is set in Northern Carolina. The narrative voice is a midlife woman, Evie, who does not report on Manson but about one of the girls of his circle, Suzanne, a nineteen-year-old murderer. She recalls the summer of 1969 when she was fourteen and met Suzanne and a group of girls. They took Evie to a ranch in a sort of hippie commune. Here she met a man, Russell, that Suzanne fell in love with.

Russell has a lot in common with Manson. He tries to deceive young girls and well-off people. Despite the similarities, Cline decides to give the story a different color. She never mentions the cruelty that the chronicles had told about the events of Manson’s real story. The Girls represents a generation, thus it is not a report but a coming-of-age novel. This is evident from the choice of themes, all linked to the difficulties of adolescents to move around the world. Cline does it through the character of Evie, who is beginning to explore her womanhood and is trying to understand the humanity around her.

The thrilling new voice in America fiction

Published in 2016, The Girls has been an extraordinary success. It triggered a bidding war between twelve editors in the autumn of 2014, won by Random House for $2 million. Writer Jennifer Egan praised the novel and defined Cline “a thrilling new voice in American fiction“. In 2016, the book won the Shirley Jackson Award for Best Novel.

In 2017, Cline was involved in a legal process over alleged plagiarism. According to her ex-boyfriend Reetz-Laiolo, she stole fragments from his unpublished writing and used them in her novel. A year after, the trial ended in favor of Cline. According to the judge, there were no substantive similarities between the writer and her ex-boyfriend’s works.

Cline is the author of two other successful books: Harvey and Daddy, both published in 2020. The first one tells the last 24 hours of Harvey Weinstein before the rape conviction, whereas the second one is a collection of short stories linked by one theme: the perversions of human society.

Credible: Why We Doubt Accusers and Protect Abusers

Credible: Why We Doubt Accusers and Protect Abusers

OCTOBER 7 at 7:00 pm

The #MeToo movement touched off a massive reckoning and exposed how victims have been badly served by a system that is designed not to protect them, but instead to protect the status quo. Credibility lies at the heart of this system. In her landmark book, Credible: Why We Doubt Accusers and Protect Abusers, former prosecutor, legal expert, and leading authority on sexual violence, Deborah Tuerkheimer reveals how we are all shaped by a set of false assumptions and hidden biases embedded in our culture, our legal system, and our psyches and offers a path forward to ensuring justice is truly served.

Unbeknownst to us, we are shaped by a cluster of forces Tuerkheimer calls the credibility complex. These forces corrupt our judgments, making us too prone to both discount the credibility of accusers and inflate the credibility of the accused. The most vulnerable women experience credibility discounting at its most extreme, while men who are protected by greater status or position are the beneficiaries of massive credibility boosts.

Tuerkheimer explains how the credibility complex is shaped by our culture and the people who routinely mete out these credibility discounts and boosts: police officers, school officials, workplace personnel, friends, roommates, parents; and by the labyrinth of the law: the judicial opinions that interpret these laws, rules that dictate what evidence is allowed in court, and procedures that govern the litigation of cases, both civil and criminal.

Tuerkheimer is a professor at Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law. She earned her undergraduate degree from Harvard College and her law degree from Yale Law School. Tuerkheimer served for five years as an Assistant District Attorney in the New York County District Attorney’s Office, where she specialized in domestic violence and child abuse prosecution.

Tuerkheimer will be in conversation with Megan Twohey (FAN ’19), a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter for The New York Times and co-author, with Jodi Kantor, of the bestselling book She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement.

This event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available later on our website and YouTube channel.

BONUS AFTER-HOURS EVENT: Attendees who purchase a copy of Credible from FAN’s partner bookseller The Book Stall are invited to attend an AFTER-HOURS event hosted by Tuerkheimer that will start immediately after the webinar. Details on the webinar registration page.

Turkey is considered as the most emerging market economy in the world and it was placed among the developed countries side defining as world's newly industrialized countries. Turkey is pioneer and leading manufacturer in aquaculture, agricultural products; textiles, motor vehicles, etc. There are many lists of aquaculture journals which emphasize in the field of aquaculture and Turkey is one of the countries which maintain aquaculture journals in regular frequency.

With the aim of creating innovation in the field of research and development, Turkey is spending more and more expenditure in the research side and therefore gaining good gross domestic product in this aquaculture field. Turkey has established a good platform for aquaculture research especially in terms of fish production which is growing rapidly in the recent years.

The Turkish Society of Orthopaedics was established after the first International Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Orthopedics and Traumatology Congress, in Ankara, Turkey, in 1970. Turkish orthopedic physicians actively practicing operative orthopedics were questioned in a 12 question face-to-face survey. Personal information of physicians, preferred cuff pressure (CP) and tourniquet inflation time (TIT) and the source of the information for these preferences were questioned. Answers gathered were analyzed statistically.
