Some websites (go ahead and google to see for yourself) are honest enough to state that it is probably not the ancient city reported. It seems that some false advertising is going on. The historian, Al-Hamdani, writing in the sixth century A.D., hailed Ubar as “ first among the treasures of ancient Arabia“. Built by the legendary Shaddad ibn Ad as “an imitation of Paradise,” the city was renowned for its imposing architecture, vast groves of fruit trees and fabulous wealth. The other ancient sites of Khor Rhouri and Al Balid are FAR superior to this site which is supposed to have been “the best of the best”. One traveler who traveled all the way out to see this site wrote on the web, “ The lost city of Ubar is disappointing-It should stay lost.” Strong words but I can understand the disappointment as there really was not much to see. This is the verse said to describe this site in the Quran: “Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the `Ad (people) Of the (city of) Iram, with lofty pillars The like of which were not produced in (all) the land?” (This story sounds suspiciously a lot like the story of Sodom and Gomorra which were punished/destroyed by God in the Old Testament.) Well the ruins of this site show that this ancient site was anything but “lofty”. If it is the “Iram” of the Quran, it really doesn’t seem to match at all (even though many Islamic sites hold this discovery as proof of the validity of their book). The same with the “Bat Tombs” outside of Ibri… Of course for the sake of tourism, this site is CLAIMED to be “the ancient city of Ubar” but there is a lot of debate out there about whether it is or not. One might automatically assume that that would mean it would be impressive, but one would be wrong. This location is recognized as a UNESCO world heritage site. No thanks, ha!ha! I’m not THAT hungry… Seems that the black paint can is lost as well! This is the unimpressive entrance to this…unimpressive site. Oh, I almost forgot to mention the restaurant. There couldn’t have been more than 10 villas there in total as well as a small mosque and a tiny convenience store. What you can’t see from this picture is just how bumpy the road was! In the classic storybook, “ 1001 Arabian Nights“, “ Anyone who tries to find the road to Ubar will go crazy.” Well, I seemed to be losing my mind from the car vibrations and halfway there I started doubting if I was even on the right road! The shaking of the car was so bad in some spots that I had to slow down to 20 kms/hour to prevent the rental car from falling apart! (Good thing I left my car in Muscat on this journey, haha!! □ ) A few villas have been built since the discovery of this site in 1992. This was what the road was like to “the lost city of Ubar”. I had no intention of visiting the site of the supposed “rediscovered lost city of Ubar” during my trip to Salalah in July but memories of lost treasure being discovered in different movies on the big screen won out as I noticed this sign on the Salalah-Muscat road: I noticed that the road here to Shisr (or Shasar) was reported to be only 70 kms so I decided that it might be well worth arriving in Muscat a few hours later than planned in order to see an ancient city shrouded in mystery. As a HUGE fan of the Indiana Jones films (at least “ Raiders of the Lost Ark” and “ Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade“), myths or legends of “a lost city” are definitely something which are sure to grab my attention. You shouldn’t assume the skills of other applicants or their strengths, focus on yourself. Simply responding “because I’m really good” or “I really need a job” isn’t going to work. You should focus on skills that you have, including those not yet mentioned. This question needs to be carefully answered as it is your opportunity to stick out from the rest of the applicants. You should work chronologically, starting as far back as possible and working until present.ĥ. Unless asked otherwise, focus on education, your career and present situations. The fact is, the interviewer isn’t interested in your life story. However, you don’t want it to sound memorized. It is used as an ice breaker, gets you talking about something comfortable, but you need to have something prepared for a response. This is a common question during an interview, possibly the most asked. I attended seminars on personal development and managerial skills improvement. I enrolled myself into a course useful for the next version of our current project. I always try to consult my mistakes with my kith and kin especially with those senior to me.

Various color spectrums for different color vision deficiencies. To me some purples appear closer to blue some oranges and light greens appear closer to yellow dark greens and brown are sometimes indistinguishable. Specifically, I have a mild case of protanopia (also called protanomaly), which means that my eyes lack a sufficient number of retinal cones to accurately see red wavelengths. I am one of the 8% of men of Northern European descent who suffers from red-green colorblindness. #The color oracle test seriesFind the series introduction, as well as a list of published stories here. That would probably imply using the same algorithm as Color Oracle which is described in detail in this paper (PDF).This story is part of a series on bringing the journalism we produce to as many people as possible, regardless of language, access to technology, or physical capability. I’ll see what I can do to improve things a bit. There is no reason for a dark spot in the blues, for the yellow to become white, nor the grays to become something else. I’m not an expert in color blindness nor color theory, but I say that because I don’t see any valid reason for any of the differences noted above. So which one is the best? I’d suspect Color Oracle beats Sim Daltonism on the quality of its filter. There is still some differences however: whites are a little whiter and grays (look at the striped background) are a little blueish on Sim Daltonism’s side. With tritanopia however, the results appears to be practically the same: The same differences are appearing with protanopia but to a lesser extent (Color Oracle on the left, Sim Daltonism on the right):
In the context of securities fraud, any misrepresentation must be material to give rise to liability.As another example, a material breach of contract refers to a court finding that a party failed to satisfy their obligations significantly enough to where the aggrieved party is entitled to a remedy. For example, the term “material adverse effect” is used to describe events which alter the parties’ expectations so significantly that the event extinguishes the parties’ obligations under the contract.

You stick around by your table for a bit, since you’ve had a couple of people already come by and take a look at your prints. People start arriving for the party, with Jin giving them a warm welcome before he quickly shows them around. They did really well matching tones and accents. You all agree because the cafe looks fucking amazing. “You know, I gotta say it, Jimin and Taehyung did a really good job helping decorate the place.” Hoseok says looking around and nodding. You can’t help but gush at how good he looks. Jungkook gets a special mention because not only is he wearing a merch shirt tucked into his jeans, but his jeans are so distressed that his part of his thighs are poking out through the holes and his hair fell down right by his eyes. You let you overall straps hang off to the side, with a red bandana acting as your headband. You turned your merch shirt into a cropped baby tee and threw it under some camo overalls. Some of Jin’s closest friends will also be sporting the shirt tonight. “I hope so.” You peep the merch shirts you, Hobi, Yoongi, Jin and Jungkook are wearing and smile to yourself because damn, not only do they look good, but it was also wholesome as hell to see you all in the same shirts. “Oh wow, it looks good Y/N! You’re going to sell out tonight.” Jin says as JK is being a baby and holding onto his torso from behind. “Children, please don’t mess up the decorations?!” They let each other go and make their way over to you casually, like they weren’t just wrestling the hell out of each other. “Aiya! Ay, ay, aish, my arm!” You hear Kook’s loud laugh as Jin bumps into a table. They always playfully fought and physically wrestled around with each other like children. Jin always swore him and Kookie had the same mental age. You loved seeing how close your bestfriend was with Jin and how they always played around comfortably with each other. Jungkook is finished putting up the balloons and decorations and is now playing around with Seokjinnie, like always. You turn around to see Yoongi all set on the small stage on the opposite end with Hoseok, making sure the sound and mics work okay. After receiving a ton of love for his pictures, Jungkook is also showcasing the pictures he took of you on a small corner of your table.

Hurley and Behnken will be the first two astronauts to fly aboard Crew Dragon as part of Demo-2, tentatively scheduled for later this year. Firing Room 4 will include consoles to monitor systems needed for human spaceflight, such as spacecraft environmental, thermal and life support systems.

NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine addresses the press. Bridenstine discussed at some length the "three theaters" of NASA's operations going forward: Low Earth Orbit, Cis-Lunar Space, and the eventual Journey to Mars, making a strong argument that NASA wants to hand over the responsibility of transport to low earth orbit to those commercial operators, freeing NASA up to refocus on the exploration of space. NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine and Kennedy Space Center Director Bob Cabana were both on hand for this weekend's launch, and both reiterated NASA's commitment to its commercial partners. At separate times, both Hans Koenigsmann (Vice President, Build and Flight Reliability), and Elon Musk pointed out that even the original Dragon spacecraft, used to transport cargo, was equipped with a window, a convenience intended for their eventual human crew. SpaceX's representatives at Kennedy Space Center this week, both before and after launch, reiterated their commitment to transporting astronauts to space aboard their vessels. The phrase "commercial crew" envelopes a number of contracts and contractual phases between NASA and its commercially-owned partners the most recent phase, Commercial Crew Transportation Capability (CCtCap) began in 2014 with the selection of Boeing's CST-100 / Starliner capsule, and SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft as the two projects moving forward in actively-funded development. Alternately called "Dragon 2" and "Crew Dragon" by SpaceX CEO and Lead Designer Elon Musk, this maiden (uncrewed) flight is a critical step in both SpaceX and NASA certifying the spacecraft for future human flights. Thundering off the launchpad at LC-39A, Kennedy Space Center, a brand new Falcon 9 rocket lifted a brand new Dragon capsule designed to carry human beings to the International Space Station. Space Exploration Technologies Corporation hit a major milestone in their Commercial Crew partnership with NASA in the early morning hours of March 2, 2019.
