![]() This coordinate framework is of European origin and you can remember it in terms of European explorers sailing west to the Americas. Latitude is a measure of north-south direction while longitude is a gauge of east-west direction. Latitude and longitude can be a source of confusion. You can also determine your latitude as well. Once you locate Polaris, you have given yourself a sense of direction. The two stars at the end of the Big Dipper will point you directly to the North Star Polaris. You can, however, use the Big Dipper to help locate the North Star. A common error is to think the North Star is located at the tip of the nearby, more prominent, Big Dipper. The North Star is located in the Little Dipper at the tip of the handle. As a result, the North Star appears stationary in the sky as the Earth rotates as can be seen in the time lapse image atop this post. The North Star is situated in space almost directly above the North Pole. The North Star is formally known as Polaris, derived from the Latin phrase stella polaris or star near the pole. A readable, high resolution image can be accessed here. The celestial North Star not only provides direction, but can tell you what latitude you currently are located. The Underground Railroad was not a railroad per se, but a network of safe houses for slaves to stop by on their journey to freedom. The title for the paper came from the star that gave direction for tens of thousands of slaves who, via the Underground Railroad (Douglass himself had found freedom on a real above ground train.), made their way to points north towards non-slave states and into Canada. As one would expect, it pertained to the abolitionist movement but also to women and educational rights as well. In 1847, Frederick Douglass founded the paper The North Star in Rochester, New York. “Right is of no sex-Truth is of no color-God is the father of us all, and all we are brethren.” – Motto of Frederick Douglass’ paper The North Star.

The public information campaign under a Level 1 Drought Response requires water utilities to circulate drought and water conservation information in one or more of the following: newspaper advertisements, water bill inserts, website homepages, social media and notices posted in public libraries. “It came on quickly due to the intense daytime heating, lack of rainfall and sudden decrease in soil moisture we experienced in September.” ![]() “The current flash drought we are in is primarily agricultural, but it can also affect water supply,” said state climatologist Bill Murphey. EPD monitors and produces publicly available reports on these conditions on a monthly basis. To determine the appropriate level of drought response, EPD considers several factors including precipitation, stream flows, groundwater, reservoir levels, short-term climate predictions and soil moisture. “It also gives public water systems an opportunity to educate their customers on the importance of water conservation.” “This serves as a reminder for all Georgians to use water wisely,” said EPD Director Richard Dunn. As a result, most of the counties in Georgia must follow the Level 1 Drought Response requirements. Drought Monitor, the drought has affected the entire state with conditions ranging from abnormally dry to extreme drought. This means public water utilities in 103 counties will be required to begin a public information campaign to help citizens better understand drought, its impact on water supplies and the need for water conservation.Īccording to the federal government’s U.S. Worsening drought conditions throughout most of the state have prompted a Level 1 Drought Response declaration from the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD).

Water and Sewer Superintendent: Keith Perkins, (912) 764-0693 ![]() Insomnia and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are the two most prevalent sleep disorders and frequently co-occur (Sweetman et al., 2017a). Future research should investigate and refine CBTi interventions in people with COMISA, including identifying the most effective CBTi components, adaptations, and developing personalised management approaches for this highly prevalent and debilitating condition. Implementation programmes are required to embed COMISA management pathways in sleep clinics worldwide that currently specialise in the management of OSA alone. Publication bias was evaluated by examining the Funnel plot (Egger's regression p = 0.78). Subgroup meta-analyses indicated that CBTi is effective in samples with untreated obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) (five studies, Hedges’ g = −1.19, 95% CI −1.77, −0.61) and treated OSA (four studies, Hedges’ g = −0.55, 95% CI −0.75, −0.35). ![]() A meta-analysis including nine primary studies measuring the Insomnia Severity Index indicated that CBTi is associated with a large improvement in insomnia severity (Hedges’ g = −0.89, 95% confidence interval −1.35, −0.43). Downs and Black quality assessments were performed. In total, 21 studies, including 14 independent samples of 1040 participants with COMISA were included. Authors of potentially eligible studies were contacted to provide COMISA subgroup data. Forward- and backward-chain referencing, and hand-searches were used to identify additional studies. In all, 27 full-text records were independently reviewed by at least two authors. A systematic literature search was conducted across PsychINFO and PubMed ( n = 295). ![]() Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBTi) may be an appropriate treatment for COMISA however, no previous study has systematically reviewed and meta-analysed literature reporting on the effect of CBTi in people with COMISA. Comorbid insomnia and sleep apnoea (COMISA) is a highly prevalent and debilitating sleep disorder. But more "standalone" functions like distortion effects or (gag me) auto-tracing are quite amenable to a little back-and-forth between separate programs.Įxample: Remember the days when a separate utility program called Type Styler was the de facto "standard" for any kind of text warping, before the Big Four had such features? One cannot, for example, work around Affinity's infernal overdone bounding-box fixation, because that is something you must deal with the whole time you are working in the program. No, that is not practical for every feature and function. That's how one avoids-or at least minimizes-falling victim to every machination of a single vendor. Why bother? Because enduring occasional workarounds gives you the advantage of developing proficiency in other and newer programs, thereby reducing your mission-critical dependency upon a specific software brand and the trauma of making a cold turkey "switch" when the time comes. All as a workaround, of course, until Affinity has its own (hopefully better, more elegant, more innovative) warp feature. One could do the same with Canvas, Draw, Inkscape…anything with a reasonable exchange format path for Bezier curves. For example, those who are really convinced Adobe Illustrator's is the envelope distortion to beat all envelope distortions, can export their paths to Illustrator, warp them, copy them back to Affinity. Just as one could do with most any other vector-based program to which one is habituated. I was able to create a shape, warp it and then just copy and paste into Designer as an editable vector. This bar conversation, however, is futile.
