Al Ain, 25 February 2017 – مرحباً (Marhaban!) from Stage 3, Al Maryah Island Stage, of the third edition of the Abu Dhabi Tour (23 - 26 February 2017), the only WorldTour race in the Middle East, organised by the Abu Dhabi Sports Council in partnership with RCS Sports and Events. Starting from Al Ain, the route leads, via two intermediate sprints, to the decisive climb of the race, Jebel Hafeet, where the finish sits at an altitude of 1,025 metres after 186km. The best climbers in the race - and indeed the world - will go toe-to-toe on what has become the Abu Dhabi Tour's iconic climb.
During the stage, 36 Green Jersey Points (of a race total of 152), 16 Black Jersey Points (of a race total of 72) and 16 seconds in time bonuses are up for grabs.
The ceremonial roll out started on schedule at 12:30, After crossing the 2,000m neutralised zone, the peloton of 156 riders passed km 0 at 12.37.
Al Ain (12:30): scattered clouds, 26°C. Wind: moderate – 19kph.
Jebel Hafeet (17:00): clouds, 22°C. Wind: moderate – 19kph.
Stage 3 – Al Ain Stage (186km)
From Al Ain to Jebel Hafeet
Finish: Approx. 17:00
Race Headquarters: Mercure Grand Jebel Hafeet Al Ain Hotel Jebel Hafeet, Al Ain (UAE)
The third stage will take in both the sights of the city and the mountains. The first part, inside Al Ain city, is all on wide roads with roundabouts and speed bumps and is followed by a second part in the desert along wide and predominantly straight roads. At 15km to go, the route starts to rise slightly towards the final ascent, culminating in an uphill finish at an altitude of 1,025m, following an 11km climb with slopes with an 11% gradient.
Last km
The final climb features wide, raking bends on a three-lane highway. The gradient is mostly around 8-9% with a peak of 11% at 3km to go. There are short descents in the final kilometres before the last ramp with a straight finish on asphalt.
AL AIN - Start
Al Ain is one of the world's oldest permanently inhabited settlements, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is the second largest in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and the fourth largest city in the UAE. Al Ain is the birthplace of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the first president of the United Arab Emirates.
SHEIKH HAZZA BIN ZAYED STADIUM - 186km to go
The home of Al Ain FC, this 25,000-seat stadium is one of Al Ain's tallest buildings and a recognisable landmark. The outer façade design is inspired by a palm trunk, an integral part of the UAE's heritage and culture. The stadium is part of a wider project, constructed in phases, which will ultimately include residential, commercial and entertainment areas, as well as a luxury hotel and sports facilities.
QASR AL MUWAIJI - 183km to go
The historic Qasr Al Muwaiji – birthplace of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE – is one of the UAE's most significant historic buildings and is located in the centre of the Al Ain. Built in the early 20th century, this simple but striking building was originally used as a diwan (a council or seat of governance) and as a place for the community to congregate. A permanent exhibition, housed in an elegant glass-walled space within the courtyard of Qasr al Muwaiji, tells the story of the fort and its inhabitants.
AL JAHILI FORT - 180km to go
The picturesque Al Jahili Fort is one of the UAE's most historic buildings. It was erected in 1891 to defend the city and protect precious palm groves. The former headquarters of the Oman Trucial Scouts, the force that protected the mountain passes and kept inter-tribal peace, it also served as a residence for the local governor. The fort has been carefully restored and now houses a permanent exhibition of the work of British adventurer Sir Wilfred Thesiger (whom the locals affectionately refer to as 'Mubarak Bin London') and his 1940s crossings of the Rub Al Khali (The Empty Quarter) desert.
AL AIN OASIS - 180km to go
Once an important and lush oasis on the caravan route from the Emirates to Oman, Al Ain (in English "the spring") is the core of the Emirate's historical heritage, one of the oldest settlements that has been always been inhabited and is part of the Unesco World Heritage. The Al Ain oasis features a series of irrigation canals (an irrigation system over 3,000 years old, the falaj) that provide water to the palm plantations. It stretches across about 1,200 hectares (approx. 3,000 acres) and has over 147,000 date palms of 100 different varieties. Entry is free.
AL QATTARA SOUQ - 170km to go
Dating back to the mid-20th century and founded by the late Sheikh Shakhbut bin Sultan Al Nahyan on the palm-lined road linking Al Ain's Al Qattara and Al Jimi oases, the historic Souq Al Qattara has been renovated and re-opened. A traditional handicrafts market takes place here every Thursday, Friday and Saturday from October to May, encouraging local families to preserve and promote Abu Dhabi's heritage through an active involvement in traditional craft production. The Souq is linked to the redeveloped Al Qattara Fort, now home to a popular arts centre, featuring hundreds of modern exhibits, workshops, a cafe and a library.
AL HILI - 168km to go
Just 10km outside Al Ain (on the road to Dubai) the Hili Archaeological Gardens combine both a public garden and the archaeological site with remnants of a Bronze Age settlement (2,500-2,000 BC), which was excavated and restored in 1995. It is the source of some of the richest finds in the area, many of which are believed to be over 4,000 years old. Hili is near Fossil Valley, an area rich in a variety of fossils dating back many thousands of years to when it was covered by sea.
GREEN MUBAZZARAH - 15km to go
Green Mubazzarah is a hot springs park at the foothills of Jebel Hafeet and was inaugurated in 2004. You find grass fields, rivers, artificial lakes, hot springs and chalets. It looks like a Swiss village not far from Geneva that made a lasting impression on the late Sheikh Zayed, the founder of the United Arab Emirates, during a vacation.
JEBEL HAFEET - Finish
Rising 1,240 metres, Jebel Hafeet is the emirate's highest peak, and the UAE's second. This towering rocky mountain, which stands guard over Al Ain and borders Oman, is forged out of craggy limestone that has been weathered over millions of years. Significant fossil discoveries have been made in the area, which are vital pieces in the jigsaw of the city's ancient history. Over 500 ancient burial tombs dating back 5,000 years have been found in the Jebel Hafeet foothills. Once you reach the top, you'll be rewarded with magnificent views over Al Ain.

Well, this shoot has been about 4 months in the making. I had to reschedule once because of the rain, then because I was in the hospital, then she was in the hospital, then it snowed…We were beginning to think mother nature didn't want this shoot to happen…but it was inevitable! It FINALLY happened 😉
Stacey and Justin were game for any crazy idea I threw at them, and I'm sure they thought I was a tad bit crazy because I was literally squealing during the whole shoot! I met up with them at Stacey's Grandma's property, and HOLY CATS…it was cool!
I'm a sucker…I mean s.u.c.k.e.r for old barns and crazy dirty rusty old backdrops. So, imagine my sheer delight when I show up and see about 4 out buildings and a HUGE…mega huge barn! I totally felt like it was Christmas morning for me!
We got right to work, and did one big loop around the property finding amazing things as we went…but the best part…when Justin climbed up these old stairs only to tell me that I was going to love it…well, I had to climb up and sneak a peek for myself, and I about fell over! A HUGE HAY LOFT in the barn. YIKES…SQUEAL..GASP. SO, I asked if they would be okay climbing up…we made the journey..injury free! I was afraid I was going to fall thru the roof on several occasions, but we survived!
Thank you SO much for putting up with me and my antics during the shoot! LOL. I hope you guys love your photos and I can't wait til the wedding, where I was assured there would be lots more backdrops like there was this day!!! YES! SCORE!
The Hay loft in the barn….is this cool or what!?!?!

Not sure.. EventAdd() maybe..?

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to retrieve the position of an object before and after a move. However, using both object->GetRelPos() or going through the DescLevel attributes gives me the same position values (shown when I GePrint them..). My process is as follows:
1)Get Objects first position
2)Object is moved
3)object->Message(MSG_UPDATE) (have tried different messages here)
4)EventAdd() (have tried different flags here..)
5)Get object's new position
But the initial and new object positions are being returned as the same values? Some code:
GeData gedata; MainObject->GetParameter(ID_TAB_OBJECT_LINKED,gedata,DESCFLAGS_GET_0); // BaseObject with a link field... LinkedObject = (BaseObject* )gedata.GetLink(doc); // BaseObject taken from the MainObject's link field... GeData gedataNew; DescID posXid = DescID(DescLevel(ID_BASEOBJECT_REL_POSITION, DTYPE_VECTOR,0), DescLevel(VECTOR_X, DTYPE_REAL,0)); DescID posYid = DescID(DescLevel(ID_BASEOBJECT_REL_POSITION, DTYPE_VECTOR,0), DescLevel(VECTOR_Y, DTYPE_REAL,0)); DescID posZid = DescID(DescLevel(ID_BASEOBJECT_REL_POSITION, DTYPE_VECTOR,0), DescLevel(VECTOR_Z, DTYPE_REAL,0)); LinkedObject->GetParameter(posXid, gedataNew, DESCFLAGS_GET_0); Real X = gedataNew.GetReal(); LinkedObject->GetParameter(posYid, gedataNew, DESCFLAGS_GET_0); Real Y = gedataNew.GetReal(); LinkedObject->GetParameter(posZid, gedataNew, DESCFLAGS_GET_0); Real Z = gedataNew.GetReal(); Vector T_Pos_Editor = Vector(X,Y,Z);//LinkedObject->GetAbsPos(); // Prints of the object's initial position done here... if(Active == TRUE) { ObjectSelected = TRUE; // irrelevant to the object move Active = FALSE; } // LinkedObject is moved below by (what I thought was..) updating the MainObject's Execution function Pattribute.ExecutionRefresh = 1; // Bool flag to allow MainObject's execution to move LinkedObject MainObject->Message(MSG_UPDATE); LinkedObject->Message(MSG_UPDATE); EventAdd(EVENT_ANIMATE); // different flags called here... Vector Th = LinkedObject->GetRelPos(); //instead of the DescLevel way, I tried GetRelPos() here instead... X = Th.x; Y = Th.y; Z = Th.z; // Second prints are done here, but they return the same values as the first prints...!?
I've tried combinations of all sorts of things. And while the object is moved, the GePrint values are always the same (both prints the initial values)? What else can I try here?
P.S. these spaced line prints are irritating - they don't show in Notepad or Notepad++, or in the message form text edit field...

1. I do not see any GePrint in your code at all. I think it is crucial to actually
include those lines.
2. You do not explain how the objects are being moved programmatically or
by the user.
3. You are writing about GetRelPos() - i personally would prefer to use just the
local or goal matrix of your object in that context.

Hi littledevil,
I didn't include the GePrint's because the double line spacing was making the post very long. Here's what the two print's look like for the above code trials:
// INITIAL POSITION PRINTS: GePrint("Pre-Positions:"); String temp = FormatNumber(X,FORMAT_REAL,NULL,NULL); GePrint("X = " + temp); temp = FormatNumber(Y,FORMAT_REAL,NULL,NULL); GePrint("Y = " + temp); temp = FormatNumber(Z,FORMAT_REAL,NULL,NULL); GePrint("Z = " + temp); // MAINOBJECTS EXECUTION RUN AGAIN //POST/REFRESHED POSITION PRINTS GePrint("Post-Positions:"); temp = FormatNumber(Th.x,FORMAT_REAL,NULL,NULL); GePrint("X = " + temp); temp = FormatNumber(Th.y,FORMAT_REAL,NULL,NULL); GePrint("Y = " + temp); temp = FormatNumber(Th.z,FORMAT_REAL,NULL,NULL); GePrint("Z = " + temp); GePrint(" ");
It's a bit awkward to explain it all without making it very long! The objects are moved by data stored in a vector array. When Cinema draws a new frame, the MainObject's Execution is run with the "if(Pattribute.ExecutionRefresh == 1)" this bool is then made false so that the execution function only runs that part of the code once. The Boolean is made TRUE on a new frame for example. This allows the user to then move the object freely without the execution running several times and returning the LinkedObject's postion over and over via the vector data. That is, the vector data is used only once per frame. Say the user can then move the object 100cm in the "X" axis. They can then hit the button and what 'should' happen is the position of the object is recorded (initial position), and then the Boolean is made TRUE so that the execution can run it's vector code again for that frame, moving the object back to where the vector data says it should be, and the position is taken again so that I should be left with two object positions that I can compare. But it's always returning the same values despite the object being moved in the viewport.
As for the GetRelPos() - I was just using that to try it. I've tried it a few ways and that just happened to be the last way I could think of =)
Hope that clarifies things a bit..!

If your before and after move values are coming out the the same. It's typically an indication that your "prev_position" variable is in the wrong place within your code. And it's being overwritten (updated) when you don't want it to be updated.
The simplest way to make sure your variables keep their values and do not get changed until you want them to change, is to use them in global variables in the prepass section (also called forward declaration) of your plugin.
It's better coding practice to use things like structs and classes for this kind of thing. But because C4D plugins don't talk to each other by default. You can cheat and get away with using globals without running into problems most of the time.

Scott - I've just tried some class level variables but that hasn't seemed to of made a difference. Using a separate struct didn't seem to help either.The strange thing is both prints are returning the first value. So the second print isn't returning the new position after the supposed move update.
Dan - it's an ObjectData plugin, but the button command is being run from a GeDialog that's buried in the object. So the dialog isn't a separate plugin or have a separate ID.

One thing that I've done with some plugins, just to see what the program flow is, is to add a GePrint statement at the beginning of each function, something like this:
It really fills up the console but at least you can see what functions get called after each input event.

Hi Dan,
Interesting. I use to do this with some things myself but seemingly it didn't occur to me to do it here (how silly!). I just put a print into the execution function and noticed that it is being run after the button call which would explain why both position values are the same. So the EventAdd() and Message()'s that I'm sending aren't being actioned until after the button's "break;" is called (if at all).
So how would one go about executing the object's Execute() function from within the button command if EventAdd() and Message()'s don't do it?

my simple python based thoughts on that topic - the important part, which does describe your

"[... ]But it's always returning the same values despite the object being moved in the viewport. [...]"
I still do not fully understand from where and when you do execute your code, but you are
talking about 'setting the linked objects position back to the stored state' and you said it is an
ObjectData plugin.
1. GVO is threaded. It is allowed to modify objects already attached to the scene, but not
2. Changes made to an objects description in the attribute manager are being handled a bit
awkward by c4d. If you hit undo it will you bring back multiple steps, not only to the last step.
C4d does treat the whole attribute modification operation as an undo. I am not quite sure,
what the outcome of that for the sent messages is, but it might be a reason.
Happy rendering,

I think I've managed to sort this one out. I popped an if statement with the Execution() function for that object inside the MSG_UPDATE message flag. It seems to be running as expected and I'm getting two different position values now.
I thought MSG_UPDATE would of run the MainObject's Execution() function, but this doesn't appear to be the case.
More testing to be done, but the ball seems to be rolling again! Thanks all.

Blog: Object Detection — A Game Changer for Market Research
"Object Detection" is a branch of Computer Vision that deals with finding specific objects (like humans, RedBull Cans, cartons of RedBull Cans etc.) from an image. With this blog, we will make a case about why Object Detection can be a game changer for market researchers.
Computer Vision is the field that deals with empowering computers the ability to 'see' things like humans. Object Detection is a basic visual perception task and one of the key areas of applications of Computer Vision. It essentially deals with finding and locating specific objects within an image.
For detecting generic objects (like a car, person, table, tree) there are open-source and pre-trained models like Yolo available. However, if you want an algorithm to detect very specific objects (like a 'small raw tomato' or a 'large ripe tomato'), you will need to train an object detection algorithm of your own.
Take this video for example. In this experiment, our team was able to perform AI shelf analysis and identify all the red bull cans while a shopper strolls through a retail store. This is just one way in which market research can leverage the power of object detection for better consumer insights.
Another very important application can be in the field of retail audits.
Conducting retail audits is necessary to remain competitive in an industry where multiple products and brands fight for the attention of consumers but even today retail audit is a manual-intensive process. Hundreds of field agents roam around retail stores collecting shelf data and after compilation, they share it with the management. It sounds straightforward and simple, but it is anything but simple. The time-lag between a collection of data from retail stores until a final analysis is substantial which leads to companies losing time to take corrective action. By the time they realize the problem and formulate the solution, it is too late and the companies lose out on sales.
Data accuracy is another concern for management teams. They have to rely solely on the wisdom and honesty of the field agents to collect accurate data.
In today's environment what companies need is a complete, end‐to‐end retail audit solution that would enable them to improve their shelf presence in real time. It is imperative for companies to fill the time gap between data collection and final analysis. This is where Object Detection comes to the rescue!
Using object detection for retail audits, companies will be able to improve the timeliness and accuracy of reports that will enable their managers to take in time corrective action.
Eye-Tracking is another very interesting field of market research that leverages the power of object detection.
In the video, you can see how visual input from eye tracking glasses has been coded to give insights about consumer behaviour inside a store. Eye tracking empowered with object detection can have a myriad of applications in market research such as Pack Testing, Advertisements, consumer behaviour analysis and many more.
In summary Object detection can help companies get important information about a number of key areas such as Actual requirement of a customer, Customer behaviour, his needs, habits, preferences, Main motivators and barriers at retail points, Optimize the point of sale (POS), Role of displays to the customers and many more.
We at Karna AI are leveraging the power of AI to bring object detection to practical use by integrating it with our market research solutions such as Smart Gaze for Eye-Tracking and Shelf Watch, our Shelf-Monitoring solution.

I've finally watched the 5th and 6th Potter films. Originally the reasoning for doing a run was me and mum were going to see the new one tonight... but we're not now. Bah. I really want to see it now. I dunno if I'll be able to. Suckage!
On Saturday the cd part of the MCR boxset came. I'm not sure on the ep. The songs are too short and I'm just... not sure on them. But the fuck Gerard with going on about juice?
I should probably do a track by track thing of the album like so many people are doing. Maybe I will.
So glad it got to 14. It might seem low but with allt he fucking pop crap out it's good.
Merlin was Saturday night. I've not gone on about it as much as I used to. This week's makes me want next week's now. Sure it had a pervy title (The Coming Of Arthur, come on!) but it was pretty good. And Uther is getting everything that he deserves. Idiot.
Someone's posted the full videos from Adam Lambert's gig Friday so I'm gonna watch soon. I still hate that I wasn't there.
Also need to watch Bullet's dvd. I've kinda failed there.
Speaking of Bullet the new video is fucking... odd. Moose looks nom. There's not enough jay and there's too much of freaky arms Tuck.
Today's been ok. Finished fic in the early hours and got issue 2 of Star Wars galaxy. I seriously love that thing. 3 comics for £3? Awesomeness! I'll so read soon.
There's new Rabbids figures and I'll so get one soon. Also must get the new Rabbids game cause Rabbids=win!
If you want a Christmas fic then comment here.
Posted Killjoys fic last night. May do a primer post soon.
A new chapter from Red Harvest was posted the other day. Are they seriously putting them all up cause this is the fourth so far. Anyway. It's so fucking awesome! I really hope the writer does more Star Wars stuff cause it appeals to my twisted side so much. The zombies may not have turned up yet but we've had cannibalism, torture, bondage, bribary (with naked pictures) and a HK droid! So much awesome. It seems like this could be even better then Death Troopers was.
Leslie Nielson has died:( He was so awesome and funny.
Mikey's coming tomorrow, hopefully so I won't be online as much but I'll still be around, making posts and shit. We'll be watching Bleach and One Missed Call and... other stuff. Not sure what else we'll be doing other then going to Birmingham for Bullet (which'll also involve me getting stuff from from Forbidden Planet likely Star Wars figures or Magic cards).
Off now.

WATCH: The BC woman who used banana bread to build an orphanage now needs help filling it up. Linda Aylesworth has the story.
Two people from opposite ends of the world are building homes for children by baking banana bread.
Five years ago, Global News shared the story of 69-year-old Barb Giraud, who partnered up with a 24-year-old man named Edwin from Uganda. Together, they started the non-profit organization "Jaaja Barb's Home of Angels" to help orphaned children in some of the poorest places in the world.
"Children without family feel bad when they are called 'orphans.'" Giraud explains.
According to UNICEF, Uganda has a population of 37 million people. One out of three is an orphaned child, and the annual number of deaths during childbirth is 435 per 100,000. Women die because of various complications during and following childbirth, leaving these children without parents, and some of them with HIV/AIDS.
READ MORE: More plans for the orphanage that banana bread built
"We felt that there must be a way to help children that are suffering…whether these children are sick or living in garbage dumps, we wanted to give them a home."
Giraud started baking four loaves of banana bread a day back in 2010. After nine months, she made 1,500. Today, they have baked approximately 9,000 loaves.
Even after completing the building in Jinja, Uganda, Giraud continued to sell banana bread, collecting enough donations to fund the creation of a second building.
But what they need to fill the additional beds is sponsors, 35 of them.
"We have 16 children right now, they have sponsors," said Giraud. "But we have 35 more children to bring in and we can't bring them in unless we have sponsors."
Find out how to donate or get more information about Jaaja Barb's Home of Angels.

|Tips For Taking Control Of Your Personal Finance
Most people say that money can't but happiness, however, it can surely purchase peace of mind. It helps us sleep better during the night, and it greatly lessens the stress we feel daily.
A premier cause of depression is financial disarray. Having your finances in good shape will make you much happier, so use the tips in this article to take back control of your money.
Keep an eye out in the mail for letters pertaining to changes to your credit accounts. You have a legal right to be informed of changes 45 days in advance. Read the changes when you get the notice and determine if the account is worth keeping. If you do not think the account is worth keeping, pay off whatever amount you need to and then close it.
Keep very detailed records of your spending habits for one month. Use this information to make a detailed budget for yourself. Find out where you are spending a lot of money. Otherwise, you may end up broke no matter how much money you make.
Budgeting and tracking can be make much easier, and even fun with personal finance software. Whenever you have extra money at the end of the month, put it towards any debt or in a savings account with a high interest rate.
Setting up a savings account and putting money away in it is key to remaining financially healthy now and in the future. A savings account is a great place to store money for buying a major appliance or to take a vacation. Consider putting retirement money away!
No matter what you intend to spend your money on, it is a good idea to get into the habit of saving first and buying items with cash rather than using credit.
Obtain a checking account that does not charge any fees. You can try banks in your area or even a credit union.
Many spend significant sums on a weekly basis thinking they will win the lottery, but it makes more sense to put that amount into savings instead. This is a better option because it will grow over time versus being wasted on a gamble.
Do not borrow money or start new lines of credit unless you have no other option. In some cases credit may be needed, but it's better to save money for making large purchases and not incurring debt. A few of the things that take borrowed money are cars and houses.
The ideal way to keep your personal finances in check is to be fiscally responsible regarding your credit cards. Take a step back and think before making purchases on your credit card. Figure out a time frame on paying down your debt. If you cannot pay a charge off within a month, it is probably something you should avoid.
Look to bargain stores for deals on all your bedding needs. You can purchase well made items at a lower cost and save yourself valuable time as well. You can make your finances better by researching products before you buy them.
For young people who are attempting to save a lot of money, they need to look into compounding interest. Open a savings account; make it a priority to save some money from your earnings each week.
Don't get set in your ways and stay with the same investments that did well for you previously. If you have invested in a company that does not show growth, pull your funds and reinvest them in a company that is showing signs of prosperity.
Go over your bank statements carefully. This way you can keep an eye on any increases in monthly rates or fees. People often forget to review their bank statements and pay more than they realize. Read your statement carefully each month for the reason.
With any luck, this article should have helped you learn more about personal finances and how to turn them and your life around. Getting in good financial shape may take time, effort and require you to make a few major changes, but in the long run, having manageable personal finances will lead to more peace of mind and much less stress.
You will find that you are happier in the long run!

Las Vegas,
At Strategic Wealth Design, we believe in a customized approach to portfolio construction and investment management. Rather than simply picking an investment or portfolio based on your risk tolerance, we consider it important for your financial plan and goals to drive the investment management strategy.
When investors witness the big market swings, it can be awfully tempting to try "timing" the market either due to fear (concerned that values will drop) or due to greed (concerned that you may miss the ride). Either way, "emotional investing" can hurt results over long term.
Many investors pick funds or investment choices based on past performance or the latest "hot" tip. This is like driving a car while looking in the rear-view mirror.
Many investors do not consider all of the risks in retirement. Unfortunately, we may not get a second chance to make it right if a certain risk derails our plan while we are in retirement.
When investors build their own portfolios, they often neglect asset classes that provide important diversification benefits. Harnessing proper diversification can enhance returns and help to cushion against volatility.*
Do you feel investment management is complicated?
*Diversification does not guarantee profit or protect against market loss.

An overlooked corner of the Constitution hints at a right to be protected from infection.
Ever since state governors began implementing stay-at-home orders to contain the coronavirus pandemic, protesters have resisted such safety measures under the belief that they violate constitutionally guaranteed liberties. Proposals to mandate mask wearing have collided with allegations of First Amendment violations. Orders to close gun stores have clashed with concerns about Second Amendment freedoms. But a profound historical counter-vision to these ideas about "individual liberty" can be found in one of the most neglected and underappreciated corners of the Bill of Rights: the Third Amendment.
"No soldier," the amendment reads, "shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law." Federal courts have rarely invoked it, and in 2015 even rejected a Third Amendment claim against police officers' occupation of a house. Now the subject of memes, the amendment, in the words of the legal historian Morton Horwitz, is an "interesting study in constitutional obsolescence."

Nokia 8.1 Plus renders and a 360-degree video has been leaked and it looks like HMD Global is going the way of Huawei, Samsung, and Motorola in an attempt to minimize bezels on its smartphone. The renders show the smartphone with a punch-hole display which has been a norm for smartphone manufacturers these days.
Manufacturers like Huawei, Samsung, and Honor have already taken this way and launched their smartphones with a punch-hole display that accommodates the front camera in the hole.
While Motorola has not launched such device yet, renders of the upcoming Motorola P40 were seen sporting the same camera cutout display.
HMD Global, the company that owns Nokia, has been dominating the budget smartphone market with its attractive and powerful handsets combined with Nokia's aggressive pricing.
The renders of the upcoming Nokia 8.1 Plus, that were shared by OnLeaks in a collaboration with 91Mobiles, show that the smartphone has a glass-sandwich design and a camera cutout display. The renders also show the phone is sporting a dual-camera setup at the back and has AndroidOne branding, which means the device will run on a cleaner version of Android void of any custom skin. The phone has thin bezels at the sides but comparatively a thicker chin with Nokia's branding.
If the leaks are to be believed, the Nokia 8.1 Plus will have a metal frame with glass back. The smartphone is also shown to retain the headphone jack at the top. The bottom side reveals a type-C port along with bottom firing speakers and a microphone.
The device will be launched as a competition to Honor View20 which is launching in India on 29 January.
The specifications of the phone haven't been revealed yet by the company and neither have made their way to the leaks. Although by the looks of the phone, it could be assumed that Nokia will be launching it for the price bracket of ₹20000-₹30000.

text: OVS ANNOUNCESOVS AnnouncesOptometry and Vision Science: December 2013 - Volume 90 - Issue 12 - doi: 10.1097/OPX.0000000000000143 Free Metrics IN THIS ISSUE: How Well Do Structure and Function Coincide in Glaucoma?FigureOur authors look for the closest relationship between standard automated visual fields (SAP) and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT). Of the three RNFLT measures (spectral domain optical coherence tomography [SDOCT], scanning laser polarimetry [SLP], and confocal scanning laser tomography [CSLT]), they found that SAP is most closely related to loss of retinal ganglion cells (SDOCT) rather than a loss of axonal integrity/transport (SLP) or changes to surface topography (CSLT). (p. 1353)FigureEditor's Choice open access Asian and White Tear Lipids Behave DifferentlyFigureThe dynamic properties of multilayered human tear lipids extracted from silicone hydrogel contact lenses differ between asymptomatic Asian and white subjects. Surface pressure was recorded during slow expansion/contraction cycles applied to extracted lipid layers to evaluate compressibility and hysteresis of lipid films. These differences in tear film properties are most apparent at higher surface pressures and may account for lower pre-lens tear film stability for Asian subjects compared with whites. (p. 1361) Registration Tolerances in Wavefront Corneal Correction for Visual AcuityFigureThe predictive potential of a model of the registration tolerance for wavefront-guided correction to maintain acuity within fixed acuity limits is demonstrated using two typical keratoconic eyes. The authors apply this for both one line and two line acuity tolerances and conclude that their predictive model can be applied to establish the unique tolerances for each wavefront error and wavefront-guided correction design. (p. 1370) Dry Eye Clinical Approaches of OptometristsFigureThe authors' survey of more than 600 Australian optometrists demonstrate that practitioners possess a strong knowledge of tear film assessment, use both subjective and objective diagnostic tests, and adopt treatment approaches that are based on disease severity. However, there is a lack of uniformity regarding the use of diagnostic tests. Clinical care procedures and evidence-based guidelines relating to diagnosis and treatment are not consistently adopted. The authors argue that their study highlights the potential to make better use of dry eye research in clinical practice. (p. 1385) Repeatability of OCT Lens Thickness MeasuresFigureThe authors believe that this is the first study to illustrate repeatability of crystalline lens thickness measurements in the adult noncyclopleged eye using the Visante Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomographer. In their 100-patient study, the authors cover a wide age range, including presbyopes and pre-presbyopes, as well as data for the unaccommodated noncyclopleged eye and a range of accommodative demands. They are impressed with the repeatability and ability to detect small changes with the instrument. (p. 1396) Accommodative State and Accommodative Stimulus: New Metric for AssessmentFigureThe authors suggest that the steady state accommodative response is altered by the method used for providing the accommodative stimulus (AS), including the sequence of AS presentation. They propose that the accommodative error area, a new parameter, be applied to either the linear or the nonlinear portion of the accommodative stimulus response curve (ASRC), and this will provide an optimal index to evaluate the accuracy of the ASRC. (p. 1406) Accommodating and Monofocal IOLs ComparedFigureThe authors use a model eye simulator where the optical characteristics of an intraocular lens (IOL) or other device can be simulated and a single observer can measure his/her vision through the simulator with that correction. They compared an unaccommodated IOL Crystalens HD with a monofocal IOL and found comparable vision. Then, at near, the same simulator was used to assess vision with the accommodated Crystalens HD IOL by simulating 1.4 mm of forward movement. Based on this simulated accommodation of the Crystalens HD IOL, the authors claim that it will provide "high-quality optics" for near vision. (p. 1413) Presbyopia Correction Needs in DurbanFigureThe authors interviewed and performed standard clinical eye examinations on 2000 of the almost 3000 participants older than 35 years (median, 52 years) from 18 randomly selected regional clusters of Durban suburbs (South Africa). They discovered a high prevalence of presbyopia with low spectacle coverage and concluded that uncorrected presbyopia is a significant public health concern in Durban. (p. 1424) Astigmatism Impact on Visual PerformanceFigureAstigmatic subjects are adapted to their astigmatism and perceptually recalibrate on its correction. However, whether perceptual changes parallel changes in visual acuity is unknown. Visual acuity was measured during a 6-month period in nonastigmats, corrected astigmats, and uncorrected astigmats (who were given spectacles after the first session) under induction of astigmatism at different axis while controlling aberrations. Induction of astigmatism decreases visual performance and is axis dependent. It was better for astigmatism induced at 90 degrees in nonastigmats and at their natural axis in astigmats. This suggests that astigmats may store adaptation states/cues related to their natural astigmatism. (p. 1430) Optical Blur Less Devastating in Peripheral Retina for Low-Contrast Word AcuityFigureThe authors looked at how dioptric blur affected word acuity thresholds for targets presented at different retinal eccentricities and for different contrast levels. Although the expected increased threshold was found for increased blur levels, the effect was lower for low-contrast words or when the peripheral retina is used. Their results suggest some useful clinical guidelines. (p. 1443) Can Thick and Wide Eye Frame Temples Make Driving Hazardous?FigureAlthough thick and wide spectacle temples provide better glare protection, our authors conclude that they also can dangerously limit the visual field while driving. (p. 1450) Prevalence of Refractive Error in Schoolchildren in GhanaFigureRefractive error correction is one of the priorities of the VISION2020 global initiative. Despite the negative impact on a child's potential for eye health planning, there is very limited information on the type and prevalence of refractive errors. The authors' study assessed the prevalence of refractive error and visual impairment in schoolchildren in Ghana. Although the prevalence of reduced vision caused by refractive error was low, the prevalence of amblyopia, retinal disorders, and corneal opacities indicates the need for earlier interventions. (p. 1456) Parents' Perception of Children's Eye Disease Impacts CareFigureThe authors' study use multiple interviews and focus group discussions to highlight how the parents' perception and beliefs on common eye problems influence childhood eye care in India. Further education of parents was suggested. (p. 1462) Atropine Dosage without Unwanted Side EffectsFigureBecause atropine is used as a therapy to slow myopia progression (particularly in China), the authors determined the dosage that did not produce unwanted side effects of poor near vision and deleterious pupil dilation. They found that 0.02% allowed 5 diopters or more of accommodation and a mean pupil diameter of 3 mm. They suggest that research studies begin with this atropine dosage to see if myopia is slowed. (p. 1467) Retinal Biometry for High and Low Myopic Children Younger Than 10 YearsFigureOur authors measured peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, macular thickness, and total macular volume of high myopic eyes (6 diopters or more) and low myopic eyes (3 diopters or less) using time-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). In their study of children younger than 10 years, they found all measures to be smaller in the high myopic eyes. Interestingly, peripapillary RNFL thinning was especially prominent in the inferior quadrant in high myopic children. (p. 1473) Noncycloplegic Autorefraction and Visual Acuity for Myopia Screening in ChinaFigureWith a specificity of 90% (correct identification of myopes), combining uncorrected visual acuity and noncycloplegic autorefraction had a higher sensitivity (correct identification of nonmyopes) than either of the tests alone in a population of almost 1700 children aged 6 to 12 years. The authors also explored the optimal criteria of the combination test for different age groups, with the highest sensitivity in the 11- to 12-year-old age group (84%) and lowest in the 6- to 7-year-old group (64%). (p. 1479) Unusually Effective Atropine of the Most Myopic of Myopic Anisometropic EyesFigureOur authors report what seem to be remarkable results using 1% atropine in the most myopic eye of myopic anisometropic eyes for 7 to 16 months. Perhaps because of the unilateral nature of the atropine treatment, they report that the atropine was well tolerated. With an admittedly high dropout (9 of the 22 subjects equals 41%), those completing the study (n = 13) had reduced myopia (average 0.6 diopters [D]), whereas the untreated eye progressed an additional 0.7 D myopic. Overall, for those who remained in the study, the anisometropia decreased from an average of 1.8 to 0.5 D. (p. 1486) New Technology Advances Understanding of a Choroidal VasculopathyFigureThe advent of OCT has allowed for optimal visualization of idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (IPCV) and a better understanding of the pathophysiology. As our authors' clinical case shows, specific morphological change associated with IPCV can be visualized on OCT and is called the "double layer sign," indicating the presence of an additional reflective layer corresponding to the anomalous choroidal vascular network of IPCV. (p. e293) Facilitating Appropriate and Early Diagnosis of a Corneal DystrophyFigureThe author reports a rare corneal dystrophy and identifies ways to provide an appropriate and early diagnosis. Her 56-year-old male patient presented with corneal arcus, with a central haze in both eyes and crystalline deposition in the right eye. A diagnosis of Schnyder corneal dystrophy was made based on clinical presentation. Aging will change the clinical signs to decrease vision, which may necessitate referral for phototherapeutic keratectomy, penetrating keratoplasty, or deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty. The importance of appropriate management of the patient's systemic findings, which correlate with the dystrophy, is emphasized. (p. e301)© 2013 American Academy of OptometryView full article text

How Hedonic Adaptation Robs You of Happiness-and How to Change That
This is a professional note extracted from an online article.

Key Ideas
Hedonic adaptation refers to people's common tendency to return to a determined level of happiness regardless of life's ups and downs.
Hedonic adaptation is often referred to as "the hedonic treadmill" because we always end up where we started.
Researcher Sonja Lyubomirsky has examined this set-point:
A full 50 percent of our happiness set-point is due to genetics. 10 percent is affected primarily by circumstances like where we were born and to whom. 40 percent is subject to our influence.
Certain pleasures are more prone to hedonic adaptation. These pleasures can lift your mood quickly, but their effects can be short-lived. You may also get used to them fairly quickly. For example, If you have the same meal every day, you may find it to be less enjoyable by the end of the week. This is also true for fresh flowers or listening to your favorite song.
Gratifications, as well as activities that give a strong sense of meaning to us, are more immune to the effects of hedonic adaptation.

It consists of 3 parts: positive affect, negative affect, and life satisfaction.
Positive affect and negative affect are basically your emotions and moods, and life satisfaction refers to the evaluation of your life as a whole (how satisfied you are with your life, what you would change etc).
Tracking your own subjective well-being can be very powerful if you keep alongside a journal of your life's events.
Keep it up for some time and you will see trends emerge. You'll also be able to adjust your activities in order to maximize positive affect and life satisfaction and minimize negative affect.
Key Ideas
Spend 5 to 10 minutes at the end of each day writing in detail about three things that went well that day, large or small, and also describing why you think they happened.
You don't know what you've got till its gone.
Consider the many ways in which important, positive events in your life—such as a job opportunity or educational achievement—could have never taken place, and then reflecting on what your life would be like without them.
We have a tendency to adapt to pleasurable things—a phenomenon called "hedonic adaptation"—and appreciate them less and less over time.
We can interrupt this process by trying the Give it Up practice, which requires temporarily giving up pleasurable activities and then coming back to them later, this time with greater anticipation and excitement.
