I have had this conversation with Rigan Machado several times - and I always found it interesting.

And he (or she who masters the most positions, wins most of the contests. It’s a simple idea - but one that I must admit, eluded me for quite some time. I hope it helps.

Question: How many words constitute a fictional short story? Not a short, short story but a short story.
Answer: Generally, a short story is any story under 7,500 words. Anything under 1,000 words is often termed flash fiction.
However, these definitions are not fixed. Sometimes works up to 20,000 words have been called short stories. You have to check with individual publishers (such as literary magazines, websites, contests, etc.) to see what length of stories they are looking for and what terms they are using to describe them (e.g. micro-fiction, novelette, novella, postcard fiction).
At the extreme lower end there are also "six word memoirs," such as this famous one attributed to Hemingway: "For sale: baby shoes. Never worn."

"We have to do it." "Why?"
"We have to do it."
Which way do books usually have it written?
Answer: The general rule in writing dialogue is to start a new paragraph each time you change speakers. This helps let the reader know when the change occurs and keep track of who says what.
This is especially important in cases like your example, when there are no speech tags (e.g. "said John"), action beats (e.g. "John scratched his nose."), or any other cues to identify the speaker of each quotation.
I'm sure you can imagine that if you had a long back-and-forth conversation with no such cues and all in one paragraph, could become very confusing.
Let me also point out that, whenever you are in doubt about something like this, the easiest way to find out is to pick up a few books and look for examples. While literary fiction often plays fast and loose with the rules (because it tends to prize a certain style over clarity), most books follow the standard rules for the country where the book is published.

Question: Can a book have too many characters?
Answer: It really doesn't matter how many characters a book has as long as they are engaging.
You need at least one main character whose dilemma the reader can relate to, and an impact character who presents an alternative way to handle the problem (even if this character is imaginary). That's the minimum.
Some novels have many, many characters, if they are long and have a number of subplots. (The Harry Potter series is a recent example.) It all depends how many you need to tell the story or to flesh out the main character's world.
* You must keep your plot moving.
* Publishers may be more inclined to publish a 100,000 word novel by a first-time writer than a 600,000 word novel (which means less space for extra characters).
* It will be easier for you to keep track of 20 characters than 200, and easier for the reader too.
* You don't want redundant characters. If two characters fulfill basically the same function, it may make sense to combine them.
But there's no hard and fast rule. It all depends on your story.

A person has 3 sons. He distributed his money among his sons equally. They invested 1,44,000 , 1,52,000 and 1,32,000 Rs. in a business respectively. At the end of 1st quarter they earn a profit of 37450.
They donated 20% of their profit and rest are invested in the business in the ratio of capital at the starting of 2nd quarter. Again at the starting of the 3rd quarter they invested equally amount in the business. At the starting of 4th quarter they invested in the ration of 7:6:8 respectively.
They invested their money for whole year and the profit earned by them is proportional to the investment and the period of investment.
Q.1 If the amount invested by 1st son at the starting of 2nd quarter is equal to amount invested by the 3rd son at the starting of 4rd quarter then find total investment invested by all the sons at the starting of 4th quarter.
Q.2 Find the amount that is donated at the end of 1st quarter.
Q.3 If the sum of the total amount invested by 1st and 2nd son at the starting of 4th quarter is 19500 and the sum of the total amount invested by 2nd and 3rd son at the starting of 3rd quarter is 24000. Find the total amount invested by 2nd son in all quarter.
Q.4 What is the ratio of the amount invested by all sons at the end of 2nd quarter?
So amount invested by the 3rd son at the starting of 4rd quarter = 10080 Rs.
The sum of the total amount invested by 2nd son at the starting of 4th quarter = 19500/13×6 = 9000 Rs.
The sum of the total amount invested by 2nd and 3rd son at the starting of 3rd quarter is 24000 so the sum of the total amount invested by 2nd son at the starting of 3rd quarter = 12000 because at the starting of the 3rd quarter they invested equally amount.
The total amount invested by 2nd son in all quarter = 9000+152000+10640+12000 = 183640 Rs.

Learning from mistakes is smart. Learning from the mistakes of others is brilliant.
No entrepreneur tries to fail. Even when one is getting into something new, whether a business, an industry or a product, they all expect to succeed.
History books are filled with names of people who had to keep trying before they saw even a semblance of success. While the lessons of resilience and determination are successfully passed on, these inspiring stories can often be misconstrued to mean one cannot win on their first try. How about we look at it another way?
Let’s find people who learned from the failures of their predecessors to win on their first try. Let’s see what lessons we can gather from them. Make no mistake, all had to undergo small failures along the way. However, what they were working on as a whole – whether starting a business venture, getting ahead in their career or running for office – ended in victory.
There are common qualities that successful people applied in their pursuit of success.
When you’re getting into something new, you aren’t the only person that’s scared for you. Your family and friends are. If you have a team your problems are bigger. And if you have a co-founder and/or board, you may even be prohibited, if others don’t see your vision.
If you believe in it enough, no matter how risky the venture, you should be able to take a stand even when the odds aren’t in your favour. A classic case of relentlessness in the face of failure is Tiziano Motti: Getting elected into the European Parliament is no easy feat, let alone winning on your first try. Yet Motti was able to not just win on his first try, he did it on an independent ticket.
Adopting what he calls the “Pop Politics” model, he was able to beat his competitors by taking a different approach that placed above everything else, modern marketing and communication strategies. He said, “My campaign was based essentially on planned marketing strategies and communication patterns drawn around my entrepreneurial and showmanship characteristics, with a hint of the American presidential model.” This innovation gave him confidence to take the risk he was taking leaving little room for fear to thrive.
His first-time success has been detailed in a book dedicated to his story, Sono come te, dammi fiducia which in English means, “I’m like you, trust me.” Driven by the vision of change he wanted to see in the community, Motti left no room to fear the risk he was taking.
Similarly, if you’re going to pursue something, even if for the first time, you can’t leave room for failure. Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert, calls himself an irrational optimist and that’s probably what you need to be when pursuing a risky idea for the first time: Believe it will work and get to it.
When you think of personalities like Andrew Carnegie and Henry Ford, you see very successful people who took great risks and ended up shaping entire industries. You also see school dropouts. However, as Napoleon Hill argues in Think & Grow Rich, these men were far from uneducated. They took the time to learn their trade because they understood that knowledge is a key ingredient to the success of all new things.
A growing business is heavily reliant on knowledge about its industry, customers and competitors, etc. Winning a political seat or moving up your career ladder requires you to accumulate a certain amount and quality of knowledge first.
Luckily, this is a plentiful resource for many businesses and individuals. It comes in form of libraries, the internet, mentors, customers, employees, industry leaders and personal experience, to name a few sources. The trick is in acquiring/gathering this knowledge and how you share and exploit it to serve your purpose.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be about shining new ideas and clever products. It also doesn’t require you go back to school and get an MBA. You can learn a lot about your trade from the workplace experience of the average employee, daily processes and product designs, market research and your customers. The difference between a winning entrepreneur and a losing one can be found in how eager they are to improve their knowledge base.
When you’re self-aware, you understand why you feel the way you do and how your behaviour manifests in different situations. When you understand these truths about yourself, you can then embark on improving. The Johari Window can be an important tool to help you understand yourself and your relationships better.

As the world prepares to join China in celebrating Spring Festival, nowhere will the dawning of the Year of the Pig (5 February) be more enthusiastically greeted than in Cardiff.
2019 marks the 30th anniversary of the unique ties which bind Cardiff and China. In 1989, the Welsh capital was the first city in the UK to twin with a Chinese counterpart when it partnered with Xiamen in Fujian province.
Ten years on, Cardiff and Peking Universities began a collaboration across cancer research – a partnership that has since facilitated 91 scholar and 60 student exchanges and provided the basis for the founding of the Cardiff–Capital Medical University (CMU) Joint Centre for Biomedical Research in 2013.
During that time, Cardiff has further expanded its partnerships outside Beijing, with 50 formal academic links and strategic partnership agreements with universities across the country.
Industry has also played a key role, with Chinese biomedical service provider Realcan investing £1m in Cardiff research opportunities over a three year period from 2017 to ensure continued optimisation of biomedical and clinical research expertise.
Recently, Chongqing Government officials visited Cardiff’s Institute for Compound Semiconductors to explore economic opportunities – their arrival closely following that of a delegation of more than 100 Chinese education leaders who spent three months in Cardiff developing their leadership skills and forging relationships with their UK counterparts.
“This programme is a result of hard work on both sides, and is a symbol of the educational collaborations and the open era between our two great nations,” said Jianhui Xia, Education Section Counsellor of the Chinese Embassy in the UK.
This expanding relationship was recognised when, in 2018, Cardiff’s Vice-Chancellor Professor Colin Riordan received the prestigious ‘Great Wall Friendship Award’ in recognition of Cardiff’s contribution to the development of the Chinese capital, Beijing.
Cardiff alumni too are thriving amidst this golden age of Cardiff-China relations.
From Professor Zhong Binglin (PhD 1994, Hon 2001), former President of Beijing Normal University and the Chinese Society of Education, and Professor Jiafu Ji (PhD 2015), President of the Peking University Cancer Hospital and winner of the Professional Achievement Award at the 2017 Study UK Awards, Chinese alumni are shaping the next generation of thinkers and problem solvers.
This Chinese New Year offers an opportunity to reflect upon the shared achievement of the Cardiff-China relationship – and with such strong foundations to build upon, we look forward to another year of collaboration and innovation.

Explain your thinking in words and justify your response using a model or partial products.

Nurse Kate asked Nurse Lucy to put all of the pills from one big container into three little ones. She asked Lucy to put 2/3 of pills into the first container, 1/4 of the pills into the second container, and 2/6 of the pills into the third container. “But this is impossible” – said Lucy right away. Is Lucy right?
Answer: Yes. Lucy needs to put all pills in three containers, so 2/3 + 1/4 + 2/6 should be 1, but 2/3 + 1/4 + 2/6 = 2/3 + 2/6 +1/4 = 2/3 + 1/3 + 1/4= 1+1/4, so it is more than 1.

“Both of our technicians were really friendly and easy to work with when they were at Kawasaki doing Preventative Maintenance and Calibration on our DC tools. I was pleased to discover that they left Minnesota to come to Nebraska earlier than expected, just to outrun an impending snowstorm and keep the tool repair appointment that had been arranged. They arrived and got started on Monday afternoon, and had our 40+ tools serviced and calibrated by Friday afternoon. They were able to cater to our needs and provide timely tool service turnaround even during our regular production hours. They also worked long hours past our regular production hours to complete service for DC tool applications that could not be easily shut down during the normal working shift. I was impressed to find out that they both stayed past 8:00PM on more than one night just to complete the tools that they said they would, especially since they had been working since 7:00AM that morning.
“When I think of Technical Tool Products, the biggest thing that stands out to me is their quick turnaround time. When I send in a tool, I get a quick response and don’t have to wait long to get the tool back. In my experience, their lead times are typically 1-4 weeks ahead of other shops, which really adds a lot of value to me.
“This fast service does not come at the expense of quality. TTP always delivers high quality work and high quality service. They are good about communicating what’s going on with the tool and if there are any unexpected issues they always are sure to ask me how I want to proceed.
We provide the above services for many brands of tools, such as Atlas Copco, ARO, Ingersoll Rand, Uryu, Chicago Pneumatic, Avdel, Gesipa, and many more. Call or email us for pricing, or to inquire about services and brands not on this list.
What does it mean when we say we’re an Atlas Copco certified repair center?
You get all the training and experience of a manufacturer’s rep, closer to your door. Dealing local makes sense – shipping is faster and cheaper, and if we need to come to your plant for onsite work, you will save a lot of money on travel expenses, as we are within driving distance of a large part of the area we serve.
It also means added resources. In order to maintain our certification, we stock a large supply of the most commonly used repair parts, which means faster turnaround times, and you’ll be up and running again before you know it.
Another added resource that comes from our certified status is professional help from Atlas Copco themselves when warranted. There is no problem we can’t solve, because we have the makers themselves at our side to support us if necessary.
Finally – there is the benefit of dealing with a small company. When you call, you can talk to the technician who is working on your tool, and he will call you as needed. Feel free to ask questions so you understand the issues, discuss ways to prevent future issues, or get advice on whether to repair or replace your tool.
For your Atlas Copco repair, maintenance, or other service request, call us today or email repairs@technicaltoolproducts.com.

LANSING (AP) — Prompted by a high-profile case of an attack on a Detroit-area family, a state lawmaker has introduced a bill aimed at limiting the release of 911 recordings requested under the state’s Freedom of Information Act.
Rep. Kurt Heise of Plymouth said he wants to strike a balance between the public’s right to the information and the need for sensitivity, the Lansing State Journal reported.
The bill was prompted by a 2012 attack on the Cipriano family in Farmington Hills, Heise said. Tucker Cipriano is accused of beating his father to death with a baseball bat and trying to kill his mother and brother.
A 911 call for help from the home captured audio of the frantic scene at the family’s home.
Heise said his intent is to limit how quickly 911 recordings are available.
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A man who faked being the son of a judge to con money from people with legal troubles has been sentenced to two years in state jail.
Another judge in San Antonio this week sentenced 37-year-old Mark David Leal.
Leal in March pleaded no contest to theft of $3,500 from a man facing drug possession and drunken driving charges.
Prosecutors say Leal falsely claimed his mother was Judge Juanita Vasquez-Gardner and that she would delete the charges from a court computer.
The scam surfaced when the charges weren’t dropped and the duped man mailed a threatening letter to the unknowing judge.
SOUTH WINDSOR, Conn. (AP) — A Bloomfield man has been charged with stealing about $10,000 worth of chicken wings and other meat from a South Windsor company where he worked.

Police say the company’s owner reviewed surveillance video and saw Delisser taking products from the warehouse and loading them into a vehicle.
Authorities say they investigated the owner’s complaint and found that Delisser had stolen meat on several other occasions.

in a relatively recent post on one of my new fave blogs, a cup of jo, i was happy to learn about german photographer albrecht tübke. jo deemed tübke "the alternative sartorialist"...and, at first glance, i can certainly see at least some connection between the two. both photographers source people from the street for their subject matter, and aesthetically, too there are similarities: straight on, documentarian style portrait photography is their game.
tübke takes stunning photographs of everyday, (sometimes very stylish) german people. as i see it, though, what sets tübke's work apart from the aforementioned style shooter is this: tübke seems to choose to scout a decidedly diverse cross-section of subjects who appear to be a bit more 'ordinary' than the fashion insiders favored by the sartorialist. one could say tübke's work is kind of about fashion in an abstract sense, as his subjects are clothed, and their clothing certainly speaks to and supports the story of who these people are...but any fashion depicted therein appears to be more idiosyncratic and personal, sometimes and often utilitarian, but not always current. and that it's not current fashion doesn't matter. tübke's main focus seems to be depicting the essence of an individual and what makes them such. fashion takes a supporting role, not a starring one (as would be the case with the work of the sartorialist).

Today, with the development of artificial intelligence, many robots can begin to perform some simple tasks instead of humans. This will not only save time and manpower, but also greatly improve efficiency. According to foreign media reports, this summer, Dubai will launch the first robot police. By 2030, robotic police are expected to account for 25% of the size of the Dubai police force. This means that robotic cops may be serving you in the streets of Dubai in the near future.
It is learned that this robotic police named “E-Patrol Robot Sheriff” (electronic patrol robot police), 1.6 meters in height, master a number of language skills to recognize face, through the touch screen alarm, you can track criminals or suspects, Pay traffic fines and other operations.
Simply put, it can be patrolled around the clock monitoring, the use of visual system, you can not use any human control for autonomous walking, autonomous mobile crawling face information, facial recognition. Can effectively assist the police to arrest fugitives, but also interact with passengers to answer questions, and detect the ambient temperature, early detection of fire and other security risks, thus saving the police force. It is worth mentioning that it is made in China. Previously, this robot police station in Zhengzhou Railway Station on duty, with built-in sensors to detect a small-scale fire.
At present, Dubai is vigorously creating a “Smart City,” hoping to become a global leader in this field. The deployment of the E-Patrol Robot Sheriff has made Dubai one of the first cities in the world to deploy robotic police. Deployment of robot police is only part of Dubai’s “smart police system” plan, and in the future there will be more investment. Dubai will also set up a smart police station, using artificial intelligence (AI) technology to ensure urban safety and more.

When it comes to choosing fast food, cleanliness is a major factor. Recently, the blog I Quant NY took a closer look at New York City's restaurant inspection data and unearthed some interesting facts. The quick version: If you are looking for a clean fast-food place, White Castle is your best bet.
The hamburger chain scored an average of only 10 violations. A score of less than 13 gets an "A" grade, 14 to 27 violations lead to a "B" grade, and more than 28 violations will smack a restaurant with a dreaded "C."
Taco Bell and Starbucks tied for second with 11.8 average violations, and Pizza Hut and Baskin-Robbins rounded out the top five with scores of 13 and 13.2, respectively. On the other end of the scale, breakfast restaurant IHOP came in last with 21.6 violations. The second-to-last chain, Papa John's Pizza, had 18.2.
The only caveat is that these violations can be subjective. Different food types and preparation styles might lend themselves to higher or lower numbers of violations, and I Quant NY noted that of all the chains on the list, IHOP has the most variety of menu items and preparations. Also, these scores represent averages of all locations in the city, so some stores may be more or less clean than this data suggests.

This Excel Tutorial demonstrates how to use the Excel TIME Function in Excel to calculate a time, with formula examples.
The TIME Function Returns the time from a hour, minute, and second.
hour – An hour between 0-23. Example: 13.
minute – A minute between 0-59. Example: 13.
second – An hour between 0-23. Example: 13.
Simply enter numbers corresponding to the Hour, Minute, and Second of the time.
Minutes and seconds can be greater than 59 or less than 0.
From this starting point you can add or subtract minutes or seconds.
For the function arguments (hour, etc.), you can either enter them directly into the function, or define variables to use instead.

Western and southeastern Colorado saw additional improvements in drought conditions over the past week.
In the west central area, Mesa County and northwest Montrose County moved from extreme to severe drought. Both counties were covered by extreme and exceptional conditions two weeks ago before the remnants of Hurricane Rosa brought welcome rains.
In northern Colorado, Routt and Grand counties both saw some transition from extreme to severe conditions, while moderate drought gave way to abnormally dry conditions in parts of western Larimer and Boulder counties.
Drought continues to significantly retreat in southeast Colorado after being in extreme conditions for part of the summer. Nearly all of Baca County is drought-free, with some abnormally dry conditions remaining in the north- and southeast corners. Moderate drought gave way to abnormally dry conditions over the southern half of Bent County, and smaller portions of western Prowers and northeast Las Animas counties. An area of extreme drought in northeast Pueblo County also shrank compared to the prior week.
Overall, 17 percent of Colorado is drought-free, unchanged from the prior week, while 16 percent of the state is abnormally dry, up from 13. Moderate drought impacted nine percent of the state, up two points, while severe drought increased from 20 percent from 18. Extreme drought covers 25 percent of the state, a decrease from 28 percent. Exceptional drought was unchanged at 14 percent.
One year ago, 72 percent of Colorado was drought-free, while 27 percent was abnormally dry. Just one percent was in moderate drought.

Compound Partnership: In compound partnership, capitals of partners are invested for the different period of time.
Jack and Jill start a business by investing $ 2,000 for 8 months and $ 3,000 for 6 months respectively. If their total profit si $ 510 and then what is profit of Jill?
So we have 8 + 9 = 17 parts of total profit.
Out of this 17 parts, Jack will get 8 parts and Jill will get 9 parts.
So, One Part = 510/17 = 30.
Jack’s profit = 30 × 8 = 240.
Where C is the capital invested, T is time period of capital invested and P is profit earned.

Jane has 2 candies. Jack has 5 candies. If they each eat 1 candy, how many candies do they have left in total?
Answer: First we find out how many candies they have together.
5 + 2 = 7. Together, Jane and Jack have 7 candies. If they each eat one candy, then they ate 2 candies in total. So, we find out how many candies they have left by subtracting 2 from 7.
7 - 2 = 5. They have 5 candies left in total.

Santa Ynez, CA 93460, U.S.A.
Suzi Trubitz’s Serendipity Studio blooms in the desert hills of Santa Ynez, California. She works with materials that are awkward in every way--heavy, larger than herself, sharp--and strives to reinvent them. Trubitz’s sculptural body of work includes works that are abstracts, cloths, letters, and figures. At the same time she has a series of multidimensional collages made of metal, glass, and mirror. Using the metal sheets as a canvas she cuts and scars buildings and figures, or working in layers she cuts complex patterns full of motion. From this cold medium she creates layers of leaves, lines of poetry, and streams of blossoms, then sets them over colored bits of glass and found antique mirrors. Trubitz was born in New York and grew up a “city girl.” She attended Parsons School of Design and Boston University of Fine Arts and worked as a Madison Avenue art director. Now settled in the hills north of Santa Barbara, Trubitz finds herself inspired by more organic materials, such as wood in combination with many other components. She enjoys the challenge of manipulating seemingly impossible materials, but Trubitz takes metal into intricate patterns of nature. She is energized by the challenge of working with metal sheets that require operating welders, plasma torches, grinders and such. The challenge also requires patience and restraint, for one cut through the metal and could destroy a pattern that has taken days, even weeks to create. She explains, laughing, “There are no mistakes in steel--no room for them—there is no eraser when you work with a flame.” Or in her case, she creates a body of large sculpture that encompasses balance and sound, pattern and color, intimacy and intelligence. The process of art making for sculptor Suzi Trubitz involves three stages: idea, trial, and production. Ideas come from anywhere: the energy vibrations of a found piece of glass, a packet of old letters, a poem or song. Her material of choice, large sheets stainless steel or other plate metals, never hinders her. Instead, she is inspired to try out and create new techniques, which emerge as her determination to bring a project to life takes over. For example, in “Lest We Ever Forget,” her homage to the tragedy of September 11th, 2001, Trubitz attacked the metal sheet from the back and front, drawing the last bit of leaning wall, towering in a biblical haze, with bleeding patterns of bronze shades of patina. This method of "cold cutting" is a technique that creates a burn that does not go all the way through the metal, but leaves its scar. In the background of the piece are smoothly ground waves, suggesting a tornado of elements. Before her embarking on her handkerchief project ‘Memories’, having found inspiration in a collection of her mother’s handkerchiefs, Trubitz played at the steel for months to find a way to make it look and feel like fabric. To create these larger than life pieces of linen and lace, Trubitz worked with the metal, ultimately working it into smooth touchable pieces. Similarly, in “The Letter,” Trubitz invented a way to create an aging piece of paper, complete with a folded corner, a tear, and a coffee stain, from a sheet of stainless steel. In “Cherry Blossom Moon,” Trubitz reveals delicate layers of blossoms and leaves, inspired by Chinese paintings on silks and paper, which float over a mosaic of bronze mirror. Her multilayered works are most often patterns of metal over other patterns of metal, over mirror or colored glass shards. The final work leads the eye through the space, offering glimpses at inviting rabbit holes through the depths of the layers. The works change in sunlight, glowing amber, red or blue, adding still another layer of vibration and engagement. This piece is an example of how Trubitz works to divide space--running circles through patterns to create a sense of movement and action. One of her most intimate and stunning pieces is “And I Knew You All,” which emerged from her emotional response to Kahlil Gibran’s “The Prophet.” The piece is a specially rolled 5-foot square, featuring a standing man crossed by a reclining woman, poised over a solid metal textured frame and an intricately cut layered interior pattern which includes some of the context from the poem. A songwriter friend, Michael Colone who wrote both the music & lyrics, inspired “Lord Have Mercy on Me”. The piece features metal figures in emotional states, lyrics from the song and is layered over a mosaic of silver and bronze mirror, which in turn is layered over a painting on wood. Trubitz is a self-professed student of life, who lives and creates with intense conviction and freedom.
