Focus on Eldercare's response to COVID-19
At the purpose when the noxious impacts of COVID-19 showed first in Wuhan, the entire city and therefore the entire of Hubei Province ground to a halt. The lockdown of Wuhan brought remarkable torment and threatening difficulties for several individual occupants therein first focus. Presently, COVID-19 represents those equivalent difficulties for individuals and social welfare frameworks all-inclusive. Especially, it tests our aggregate endeavors to believe one another, particularly the foremost defenseless among us.
As a populace, individuals quite 70 will generally have more fragile insusceptible frameworks and progressively fundamental conditions that obstruct their capacity to battle the infection. They're likewise sure to dwell on bunch day to day environments, nearby people. Floods of COVID-19 passings in nursing homes — first within the Seattle territory, at that time on the brink of Sacramento and now during the country — have underscored this inauspicious reality. Up until now, Californians quite 65 have made up, at any rate, a fourth of the state's affirmed instances of COVID-19.
Be that because it may, guidelines, especially for helping living offices, are unsafely failing to satisfy the expectations in protecting California's older folks from this infection. Luck, Gov. Gavin Newsom's plan on Aging activity, as of now ongoing, presents an opportunity to forcefully address this peril and find how to secure an enormous number of more seasoned Americans.
Helped living focuses are an aid to the Eldercare business and therefore the enormous corporate proprietors that currently command the market. Simultaneously, in any case, an absence of guideline and oversight of staffing levels and capabilities — particularly prerequisites for on-location doctors and much prepared clinical experts — has left the business defenseless against misuse and unfortunate results. One glaring issue that has got to be tended to: helped living focuses are directed by the state Department of Social Services rather than the Department of Public Health.
In any case, it helped to measure maybe a piece of social welfare and clinical consideration conveyance framework, not only a direction for living. Propelled a year ago, Newsom's plan on Aging has framed a warning advisory group, is holding open gatherings and within the fall is planned to offer a 10-year plan which will address issues from lodging and vagrancy to crisis readiness to manhandle and disrespect. The venture has made a "Value Committee" to urge a contribution from a progressively differing gathering of residents and associations, including agents of the crippled network, Native Americans and other ethnic minorities.
Considering the spreading coronavirus general wellbeing emerging, it's basic that the representative's plan on Aging takes on an expansive and genuine open arrangement job. We weren't bothered with elevated level clichés for tending to the wants of the old. We'd like solid arrangements, solid guidelines with implementation teeth and a guarantee to continued oversight.
The Age of COVID-19
Older people who get themselves out of the blue alone without authority over their conditions are at specific hazards for an assortment of serious, even hazardous, physical and psychological well-being conditions, including a subjective decrease. Limitations on the opportunity of development ought to be proportionate and not founded solely on age.
COVID-19, as different irresistible melodies, represents a higher hazard to populaces that live in nearness. This hazard is especially intense in nursing or matured consideration offices, where the infection can spread quickly and has just brought about numerous passings. About 1.5 million older people individuals live in the nursing homes in the US, barring helped living offices and different settings making nearness.
Twenty-three individuals kicked the bucket in a flare-up at an office in Washington State in February and March, and the US Centers for Disease Control detailed 400 additional cases in offices as of April 1. On March 31, wellbeing experts in the Grand East district of France detailed 570 passings of older people in nursing homes.
Older people often end up in nursing homes due to governments' inability to offer adequate social types of assistance for individuals to live freely in the network, approaches that have put millions at included danger of getting the infection as a result of their organization. Governments ought to guarantee the progression of network-based administrations with the goal that individuals don't wind up in organizations without different alternatives.
Expound now on the roles played via care laborers in continuing the lives of the old during that emergency, and who, however dreadful themselves, by and by remain day in and outing inside the bounds of their wards to offer fundamental consideration.
Care supervisor Chang, the woman in charge of the consideration laborers among whom I led my hands-on work, coordinated the change of her ward into a self-sufficient fixed of a unit of care. The passage to her floor is carefully monitored; just fundamental conveyances are permitted, for instance, nourishment and clothing. Since nobody can enter or leave the structure, the flask for the older was transformed into a dozing region for care laborers. Despite the very fact that a lot of consideration laborers have their circle of relatives to require care of, they put that piece of their life under the control of others. Care specialist Lin, whose spouse died at the start of the pandemic, did not have the chance to completely grieve his passing due to incessant understaffing at Sunlight. She came back to figure following the burial service, despite realizing that she not, at now expected to figure at Sunlight to hide her significant other's clinical costs. Lin's arrival says much regarding her promise to her calling, to her colleagues, and to the old she had come to understand so well. My examination with care laborers recommends that it's an enthusiastic association and an awareness of other's expectations that propels them to remain the end of the day in care work. This is often borne out immediately.
Carefully add China is often seen as being grimy and unfortunate, thanks to an excellent extension to its nearby hook up with the realistic consideration required by slight, skilled bodies. Chinese consideration laborers are for the foremost part provincial to urban transients or urban specialists laid far away from previous state-claimed processing plants. In any case, direct consideration is intricate. In any case, its unpredictability goes unrecognized, or maybe disregarded by institutional powers that organize benefits and generalize the old as bodies to chip away at, to the disregard of their social-passionate necessities. As is valid with Sunlight, things which might typically undermine the keenness of care laborers, for instance, the absence of institutional acknowledgment for his or her enthusiastic work, are required to be postponed. Care specialists are currently centered around a shared objective: ensuring the gift assistance of the older. COVID-19 propels care laborers to consider what kind of care is required and the way to offer that care. It fills in as a channel through which the elemental beliefs of care are observed. Care is about common human weakness and our intrinsic association. Care laborers at Sunlight, in their aggregate every minute of everyday endeavors to secure the older, typify this ethic through their consideration. May the respectful regard, they hold of the older in their consideration redound on them and everyone consideration laborers overall who are fighting this pandemic on the bleeding edge!
Like the consideration laborers at Sunlight, the laborers in numerous nations are regarded human life so that we cannot be embarrassed to return clean with the leading edge about ourselves. Salute the spearheading staff who salutes our purposeful endeavors to handle the pandemic in numerous settings around the globe, within the daylight, yet additionally to ensure that veterans are appropriately treated, took care of and washed.
We all hope and pray that the coronavirus will soon be controlled and subdued. And that when the crisis is behind us, that we continue the important work of protecting the elderly and other vulnerable segments of our citizenry.

I've been planning this in my head for a month, so I based the construction on observations made in the "real world".
I finally sat down and cobbled this together with styrene materials that I had available and using prototype (14' x 48') dimensions as reference. It's not as spindly as the prototypes appear to be, but this first attempt is acceptable.
The next step is a shot of brown paint, some weathering and custom images....
Framework ring- I ended up taking many, many photos of this and am undecided as to favorites just at the moment

This is the finished framework of the abdomen. The tail end is towards the camera.
It's built using the long Technic bricks pinned together for strength. You can see I've already installed necessary details into the supports that are needed to build the upper level of the skeleton.
The white curved panels attached at an angel will be used down both sides to give it a more organic shape, however those in the front will be hinged to move, hiding weapons underneath.
*note: It turns out this wasn't quite the finished framework. I had to add in some vertical cross pinned beams and a few other things, but none of this was modded further, just added to.
The Statue of Liberty is a colossal neoclassical sculpture on Liberty Island in New York Harbor within New York City, in the United States. The copper statue, a gift from the people of France to the people of the United States, was designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and its metal framework was built by Gustave Eiffel. The statue was dedicated on October 28, 1886.
The statue is a figure of Libertas, a robed Roman liberty goddess. She holds a torch above her head with her right hand, and in her left hand carries a tabula ansata inscribed JULY IV MDCCLXXVI (July 4, 1776 in Roman numerals), the date of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. A broken shackle and chain lie at her feet as she walks forward, commemorating the recent national abolition of slavery. After its dedication, the statue became an icon of freedom and of the United States, seen as a symbol of welcome to immigrants arriving by sea.
Bartholdi was inspired by a French law professor and politician, Édouard René de Laboulaye, who is said to have commented in 1865 that any monument raised to U.S. independence would properly be a joint project of the French and U.S. peoples. The Franco-Prussian War delayed progress until 1875, when Laboulaye proposed that the French finance the statue and the U.S. provide the site and build the pedestal. Bartholdi completed the head and the torch-bearing arm before the statue was fully designed, and these pieces were exhibited for publicity at international expositions.
The torch-bearing arm was displayed at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876, and in Madison Square Park in Manhattan from 1876 to 1882. Fundraising proved difficult, especially for the Americans, and by 1885 work on the pedestal was threatened by lack of funds. Publisher Joseph Pulitzer, of the New York World, started a drive for donations to finish the project and attracted more than 120,000 contributors, most of whom gave less than a dollar. The statue was built in France, shipped overseas in crates, and assembled on the completed pedestal on what was then called Bedloe's Island. The statue's completion was marked by New York's first ticker-tape parade and a dedication ceremony presided over by President Grover Cleveland.
The statue was administered by the United States Lighthouse Board until 1901 and then by the Department of War; since 1933 it has been maintained by the National Park Service as part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument, and is a major tourist attraction. The monument was temporarily closed from March 16, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic until partially reopening on July 20, 2020. Public access to the balcony around the torch has been barred since 1916.

Why US moves to contain China’s rise are having the opposite effect in Asia
▪ As Washington takes steps to reroute supply chains and strengthen strategic partnerships, China is systematically doing the same thing
▪ In addition to pouring funds into home-grown tech, China is taking pains to integrate economic and security frameworks across Asia – with the support of Russia
The gloves are coming off in the US-China chip war as Washington announces sweeping trade and investment restrictions on semiconductors. There will be no winners and many losers in this bid for technological, economic and strategic supremacy between the world’s biggest economic powers.
There is far more at stake than just chips as the two economic giants enter their monumental struggle. For example, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has noted that, “given its strong trade and supply chain links, Asia has a lot to lose in the event of fragmentation where the world divides into separate trading blocs”.
This is of course true, especially in the short to medium term. But what the Biden administration appears to be overlooking in its aggressive-defensive dash to prevent China drawing abreast of, or even overtaking, the US as an economic and strategic rival is that it risks provoking the very process that it wishes to avoid.
This is in fact precisely what is happening now as the Biden administration doubles down by first orchestrating a wave of economic sanctions against Russia and then by imposing unilateral “security” measures against China in the form of restrictions on key semiconductor exports and investment.
China is reacting by pouring financial and human resources into catching up with the US, as economist and associate professor at the London School of Economics Keyu Jin noted recently in The New York Times. But this is only one element of a much wider (Russo) Chinese initiative designed to counter Washington’s strategies.
Economists Diego Cerdeiro, Siddharth Kothari and Chris Redl at the IMF warned in a recent blog post that “geopolitical tensions have raised the prospect that strategic competition and national security concerns may trump the shared economic benefits of global trade”.
In its Regional Economic Outlook for Asia and the Pacific, the IMF has also noted “worrying early signs of fragmentation, with trade policy uncertainty spiking and countries imposing more trade restrictions”.
The US and China are being drawn into a zero-sum game to outdo each other. Blame lies partly with the combative tactics of the Trump and Biden administrations but apportioning blame does not alter the fact that the world is headed for economic confrontation, or worse, between the two powers.
Most people are well aware of the way in which the US has courted “allies” in Europe, Asia and beyond (many of them going along only reluctantly) to stem China’s rise as an economic and strategic rival. But they are less well aware of how successful China also has been in this regard.
As Ishtiaq Ahmed, a member of the Pakistan Planning Commission and a prominent academic, commented recently: “With Europe and the US facing a mounting economic crisis caused by the Ukraine war, China and Russia have geared up the process of economic and security integration across Asia.”
The latest illustration of Asian regionalism is the Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building Measures in Asia (CICA) which decided at its recent summit in Kazakhstan to transform itself into a full-fledged organisation for economic and security cooperation in Asia, according to Ahmed. Its 27 member states account for two-thirds of global GDP. China and Russia have steered its evolution to include countries from Southeast Asia and the Middle East. It has also concluded a partnership agreement with the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), which was created in 2015 by the founding members of Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia.
The EAEU provides for free movement of goods, services, capital and labour among its member states. Though far from achieving the intended goals of an EU-like customs union and common market, it has enabled Russia to bypass Western sanctions and import restricted goods from Kazakhstan.
Meanwhile, the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) has established a niche as an integrated intergovernmental body. Its summit in September consolidated economic, security and political cooperation among China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, India and Pakistan.
China has emerged also as a key player in the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) which in Ahmed’s view will “ultimately enable China to write trade rules for the region, at the expense [of] the ‘rules-based’ free trade regime being propounded by the US”.
East-versus-West rivalry is focused for the moment sharply upon the US-China semiconductor wars which make headlines almost daily in international media outlets. But what is happening in China’s, and to some extent Russia’s, economic hinterland could prove to be of greater long-term consequence.
Wang Huiyao, president of the Beijing think tank Centre for China and Globalisation, observes in his recent book The Ebb and Flow of Globalisation that the form that emerged after World War II has been dominated by institutions, norms and ideas shaped by a relatively small group of countries led by the US.
Wang asserts that in the future, “no single country or narrow alliance will be able to dictate global norms and rules by itself”. Yet nationalisms die hard and it is clear that US and China-led alliances are going to generate bitter conflicts before anything approaching true globalisation emerges. What state the world will be in by that time is anyone’s guess.

PYNQ-Z1 Python Productivity for Zynq
The PYNQ-Z1 board is designed to be used with PYNQ, a new open-source framework that enables embedded programmers to exploit the capabilities of Xilinx Zynq All Programmable SoCs (APSoCs) without having to design programmable logic circuits. Instead, the APSoC is programmed using Python and the code is developed and tested directly on the PYNQ-Z1. The programmable logic circuits are imported as hardware libraries and programmed through their APIs in essentially the same way that the software libraries are imported and programmed.

Multi-Touch Display Shield: Smart Display
The Multi-Touch Display Shield is a gorgeous 2.8“ touchscreen display with a powerful on-board microcontroller that performs graphics processing tasks. The display is a capacitive touchscreen with QVGA resolution (320×240) and 2 finger multi-touch support.
The most compelling aspect of the Multi-Touch Display Shield is the programming experience provided by its Multi-Touch Display System (MTDS) Firmware and the associated libraries. These allow you to design sleek, stylish user interfaces quickly and with very little code. The timing dependent tasks are handled by the firmware, so integrating the display into existing projects is also a snap. Some of the key functionality provided by the libraries include the ability to draw basic shapes and text, draw images stored on microSD with binary transparency, draw buttons and easily check if they have been pressed, and check the status and location of the user's two fingers. The libraries are supported in Arduino IDE and Xilinx SDK, and have been tested with Arduino, chipKIT, and Arty host boards.

I've had this idea for a MOC kicking around my head for a while now, but have been lazy as hell to get started. I finally figured, well if I at least start it, then I might be compelled to finish it (as I look at 3 other WIPs on my desk covered in dust).
So I started, and was up until 2am playing around with this frame, first using technic beams, then click hinges. I like the hinges a lot, but don't know if I'll have enough to complete the project.
I've become very insterested in superyachts (you know, those playthings for the rich and obscenely wealthy - see www.wallypower.com/ for examples) - and wanted to build a luxury space yacht for our dashing protagonist.
It's my first real spacehip MOC since my DarkAges ended 2 years ago and I really want to build something half-decent. If anyone has any ideas on building the superstructure for a spaceship I'd be very interested.
