Reason to wear a hat crossword11/22/2023 They carry a sword, which is not drawn, and a seven-foot halberd known as a partisan.Īlthough similarly attired, the Yeoman of the Guard are not the same as the Yeomen Warders at the Tower of London, whose duties are confined to guarding the Tower and its occupants. They have a unique Tudor uniform consisting of a scarlet doublet embroidered with a Tudor crown and the roses of York and Lancaster. Their headquarters is at St James's Palace where they keep their colour (flag) and their uniforms. They are in attendance at the Coronation, lying-in-state and funeral of the Sovereign, the Investiture of the Prince of Wales, the State Opening of Parliament (including the traditional searching of the vaults), the Royal Maundy Service, all investitures and garden parties at Buckingham Palace and also at the installation of Knights of the Garter at Windsor. They act as a royal bodyguard to the Sovereign on most State functions. The Yeomen of the Guard are entirely separate from the Foot Guards. They would not therefore wear the bearskin on combat duties. But the Foot Guards fulfill the unique dual role of being operational infantry troops as well as carrying out their ceremonial duties. Their main ceremonial duties include the Guard at Buckingham Palace, St James's Palace, Windsor Castle and the entrance to the Tower of London. The five regiments of Foot Guards are the Grenadier Guards, Coldstream Guards, Scots Guards, Irish Guards and Welsh Guards. They are not worn by Beefeaters but are in fact part of the ceremonial uniform of the Foot Guards, who act as the personal troops of the Sovereign with the special privilege of guarding the Royal Family in both peace and war. The tall fuzzy hats are known as bearskins.

Zig zag zen11/22/2023 government surveys indicate that about 8 percent of the general population has used psychedelics. In his book The New Buddhism: The Western Transformation of an Ancient Tradition (Oxford University Press, 2001), he states that sixty-two percent of the Buddhist practitioners he surveyed had used psychedelics. According to sociologist James Coleman, there is a significant correlation between psychedelic use and Buddhist practice. Zig Zag Zen harkens back to the psychedelic experimentation of the 1960s and 1970s, when many of today's prominent western meditation teachers and artists began to explore the expansion of consciousness and investigate other ways of knowing and being. It uses a newer, more descriptive name for psychedelics - entheogens (en=inner, theo=spirit/god, gen=creation) - a term that acknowledges the capacity of certain substances to reveal the inner sacred spirit that is generated within the mind/body phenomena. The book is a cornucopia of art, essays, and interviews that explore the influence that psychedelics have had on well-known artists and meditation teachers, as well as the ways in which those experiences serve as gateways to deeper religious understanding. It is in this loaded context that Zig Zag Zen: Buddhism and Psychedelics, arrives to challenge the widespread misperceptions about drug use, and to reassess the contribution that the psychedelic experience can make to spiritual inquiry. The current political culture has made the legal consequences of psychedelic drug use so draconian that any reasonable public experimentation with them either by citizens or scientists is impossible. Drug crimes often get harsher punishments than violent assaults, rapes, or murders. The Economist reported in 2002 that the United States locks up nearly 175 out of every 100,000 Americans for drug-related offenses. For over thirty years, due to drug policy politics, it has not been possible to explore the wise use of psychedelics. The normative consensual status quo has been so threatened by psychedelics that they have instead been outlawed and demonized. The contribution they have made in opening revolutionary vistas in art, music, ecology, religion, community, and politics should be honored. © Institute of Labor and Mental Health, Jan/Feb 2004 Psychedelics were the most important paradigm shifting catalyst for the baby boomer generation. Michael Ziegler is a rabbi who leads Shir Hashirim Minyan in Berkeley, CA.

Abc nyc weather11/22/2023 “We think this would all justify an EV/EBITDA multiple closer to 8 times.”Ĭahall said he thought investors would be in favor of Disney shedding its lower-growth linear TV assets. “Any buyer of ABC would require long-term programming agreement for current shows from Disney’s studios and ESPN sports currently on ABC,“ Cahall said. Wells Fargo analyst Steven Cahall estimates the ABC network and its owned-and-operated stations generate about $2.2 billion in retransmission-consent fees from distributors and programming fees from affiliates, plus $2.7 billion in advertising revenue, for a total of about $5 billion.Ĭahall estimates that the network breaks even in terms of EBITDA and the stations generate about $565 million in EBITDA. “We think there could be some opportunities depending on how things fall out.” There was also a report that Disney has held talks with Nexstar about selling ABC and the stations.įormer Nexstar president Tom Carter, now an adviser to Nexstar chairman and CEO Perry Sook, told an investment conference earlier this week that there would be “little friction” if Nexstar tried to buy the ABC stations. Disney has said it is considering strategic alternatives for the TV business, but no decision about a sale has been made. The price could be adjusted based on the actual EBITDA figures.ĭisney did not respond to requests for comment on the bid by Allen. Brittany Bell married fellow meteorologist Terran Kirksey on March 6, 2015. The weather team at ABC7 New York welcomed Bell in July 2021. By: Caroline John - Published: Augat 8:18 am. The bid is reportedly based on an 8 times multiple of estimated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) generated by the Disney TV businesses. Brittany Bell Wiki: Facts about the New Meteorologist on ABC 7 New York. The Allen bid, first reported by Bloomberg, is for the ABC Television Network and the eight ABC Owned Television Stations, plus cable networks including FX and National Geographic.Īllen, who has already acquired The Weather Channel and a group of TV stations, has said he’s prepared to spend as much as $10 billion to buy stations and other TV assets.

4 pin trailer wiring diagram11/22/2023 Those are the most important functions when towing a trailer. Its main duties are to operate the taillights, the brake lights, and the turning signals. The 4 pin connector never operates the electric brake. There is an obvious exception to this rule. On all 5 to 7 pin connectors, the blue wire handles the electric break. Now this colored wire is very consistent. Make sure you don’t get confused and double-check which connector you are using before attaching the wires. The brown wire on this connector operates the right turn signal and brake light. If you have to use this connector to hook up your trailer, then the brown wire does not handle the taillights. In this case, it is the 7 way RV blade style connector that is the exception. Now as it is with all thing in life, there are exceptions to the rule. It doesn’t matter the design of the connector, the brown wire is the taillight wire. What is the Brown Wire on a Trailerįor the majority of connectors out there, from 4 to 7, the brown wire handles the taillight function. Most vehicles since the 1990s usually come with factory-installed connectors to make your towing life easier. There is also the possibility of having to take off the taillight cover to get to the right wire connections on older models. Now if your trailer has electric brakes but no back up or aux power then it is advisable and wise to use a 7 pin connector. Make sure to attach it first before attaching the other wires to their trailer counterparts. On this connector is a white wire and that is the ground. What this connector controls is usually the right and left turning lights, the right and left brake lights and also the taillights. It just has fewer options and doe snot usually control the electric brake, aux power or the reverse lights. The four-pin connector is similar to the 7 pin in that it helps send the electrical power to your trailer’s safety lights. Your owner’s manual should help you with which wire goes to which wire. The right and left turning signals, reverse lights, aux power, brake lights, taillights and the electric brake.Įach light has its own color-coded wire so you need to make sure you connect the right colors to the right function. What the 7 pin connector doe sis operate the most lights on your trailer. This is for your safety and the safety of those driving around you. When you are towing, most towing laws make it mandatory for the vehicle being towed to have working lights. You do not always have to have a 7 pin connector but in some towing instances it is the standard option and you need to know what it does to be able to use it correctly. If you are new to towing, you may not understand why you need a 7 pin connector. Some vehicles may come with both the 4 and 7 pin connector and you may find that the 4 pin will not work if you plug it into the 7 pin factory-installed option. YO may not need to use a 7 pin connector if your vehicle already has a 4 pin installed underneath the bumper. It has 7 power connection options that make sure your trailer’s safety equipment is fully powered and ready to work. That is how the 7 pin connector got its name. Not only does it handle the same tasks as the 4 pin- running lights, left turn signal and brake lights, right turn signal and brake lights, and ground, it comes with the ability to run the trailer’s 12-volt system, reverse lights and electric brake. A 7 pin connector is a simple device that has 3 more functions than the 4 pin version.

A in chemistry periodic table11/22/2023 As a general rule, in the case of the representative elements, the distinguishing electron will be in an ns or np subshell. In the third period the 3 s subshell is filling for Na and Mg, and therefore Al, Si, P, S, Cl, and Ar. Across the second period Li and Be have distinguishing electrons in the 2 s subshell, and electrons are being added to the 2 p subshell in the atoms from B to Ne. In the first period the distinguishing electrons for H and He are in the 1 s subshell. The first three horizontal rows or periods in the modern periodic table consist entirely of representative elements. Formulas for chlorides of the first dozen elements that show the periodic variation of valence Element This agrees with the valence rules derived from the periodic table, and results in formulas for chlorides of the first dozen elements that show the periodic variation of valence. For representative elements the number of valence electrons is the same as the periodic group number, and the number needed to match the next noble-gas configuration is 8 minus the group number. That is, the valences of the representative elements may be predicted on the basis of the number of valence electrons they have, or from the number of electrons that would have to be added in order to attain the same electron configuration as an atom of a noble gas. Many of the chemical properties of the representative elements can be explained on the basis of Lewis diagrams. Most of the elements whose chemistry and valence we have discussed so far fall into this category. The representative elements are those in which the distinguishing electron enter an s or p subshell. The type of subshell ( s, p, d, f)into which the distinguishing electron is placed is very closely related to the chemical behavior of an element and gives rise to the classification shown by the color-coding on the periodic table seen here. This last electron is called the distinguishing electron because it distinguishes an atom from the one immediately preceding it in the periodic table. Since it is the outermost (valence) electrons which are primarily involved in chemical interactions between atoms, the last electron added to an atom in the building-up process is of far more interest to a chemist than the first. The commonly used long form of the periodic table is designed to emphasize electron configurations.

Copy thunderbird mail to new computer11/22/2023 Help will be greatly appreciated and gratefully received. The instructions do not include a complete pathname for the target machine but they do include instructions to copy with Thunderbird closed. If the process is literally to copy the data from the source machine to the target machine, am I copying the correct files and folders? If not, what should I be copying?

I have tried copying just the folders contained within the Profiles folder over the equivalent folders on the target machine - again with Thunderbird closed - with the same result when I restart Thunderbird on the target machine.Įither I am doing something wrong or the instructions in the how-to are wrong. When I restart Thunderbird on the target machine there are no addresses from my address books and no email history.

Age of consent texas11/21/2023 Each charge carries prison time and extensive fines. In Texas, there are three categories of statutory rape, with aggravated sexual assault being the most serious. Only your criminal defense attorney will be able to give you advice on your specific case. However, if a defendant reasonably believed the other person was over the age of consent, this may play a part in the case. Mistake of age is not a defense in Texas, so it cannot be relied on to avoid conviction. Mistake of age means the defendant had no reason to know their partner was underage and that a reasonable person would have believed they were of the age of consent. While mistake of age is not an exception to the age of consent, it is important to note here as it can be difficult to tell exactly how old a person is nowadays. The marriage waives the age of consent and therefore allows for the 16-year old to consent to sexual acts with their adult spouse. If an individual under the age of 17 is married to an older adult spouse, then the age of consent rule is waived and sexual assault charges should not be filed.įor example, if a 16-year old is married to a 21-year-old, then the 21-year old should not be charged with statutory rape. The marital exemption allows consensual sex between a married minor and their adult spouse. Talk with your criminal defense attorney to see if this applies to your case. The Romeo and Juliet Exception is a defense to a sexual assault or statutory rape allegation in Texas. The same rule applies for an 18-year old who has consensual sex with a 15 or 16-year-old. The defendant was not a registered sex offenderįor example, a 17-year old cannot be prosecuted for having consensual sex with a 14, 15, or 16 year old because they are within a three-year age gap.The victim was at least 14 years old when the sexual relationship began.The defendant is less than three years older than the victim.The exception is found in the statutory rape Texas Penal Code Section 22.021, which says a teenager cannot be prosecuted for statutory rape after having consensual sex with someone close to their age if: The Texas Legislature enacted the “Romeo and Juliet” provision in child sexual assault cases to reduce or eliminate cases of alleged statutory rape. The two biggest exceptions to the age of consent law in Texas are the Romeo and Juliet exception and the marriage exemption. While the age of consent is 17, there are a couple of exceptions to the age of consent, which are important to know and may help your case. Section 21.11 prohibits sexual conduct with a child younger than the age of 17.
