The best Canon lenses for wedding photography
Wedding photographers Julia Blumenthal and Gil Gropengießer and destination wedding photographer Fabio Mirulla reveal their favourite lenses for capturing the big day.
Wedding photographer Fabio Mirulla says the Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM is one of the best lenses for wedding photography, particularly for capturing an immersive view of the reception. Fabio also sometimes uses a compact Canon Speedlite 600EX RT flash (now succeeded by the Canon Speedlite 600EX RT-II), usually as part of a multi-flash system, fired remotely from a camera-mounted Canon Speedlite Transmitter ST-E3-RT.

Whether you're photographing an intimate elopement, a micro wedding, a quirky alternative wedding or a traditional big wedding reception, the right kit is key. So which are the best Canon lenses for wedding photography? What are the essential features to look for in a Canon wedding lens? And which lenses will be both reliable and fast to focus, enabling you to deliver results time and time again?
We spoke to Canon Ambassadors Julia Blumenthal and Gil Gropengießer, a couple who work together as wedding photographers based in Leipzig, Germany, and destination wedding photographer Fabio Mirulla, who is based just outside Florence, Italy. Here, these wedding specialists open their kitbags and reveal their favourite Canon lenses for capturing a couple's special day. In addition, Mike Burnhill, Professional Imaging Product Specialist at Canon Europe, explains how the technology behind these lenses makes them so well-suited to the genre.
"Reliability and performance are important to us," says Gil. "We found that third-party lenses didn't focus as quickly and as accurately as we'd hoped, so we invested in Canon glass. Since then, we've never had a camera or lens failure."
Julia and Gil, like Fabio too, favour Canon L-series primes, because of their super-fast focusing, high reliability and high-speed maximum apertures. "I'm shooting with wide-angle lenses 90% of the time on the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV and Canon EOS R," says Fabio. "High-speed primes allow me to work in low light, such as at the altar."
Here are their favourite lenses across the Canon EF and RF ranges, from wide-angle options for working close-up to highlight the emotion of the day, through to longer lenses for capturing intimate and romantic moments from a distance.

1. Best wide-angle lens for immersive portraits: Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM
"The reception is my favourite time during the big day," says Fabio. "It's when I get to tell the story and I use the Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM lens for an immersive look. To stay close to people and to stay in the moment, the 24mm is perfect for me."
Gil also favours the lens for its versatility. "I use the EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM lens the most throughout the day, from photographing the groom while he's preparing for the day, right through to the reception," he says. "It's a lens I feel confident in and comfortable with. As it's an L-series lens, I can use it wide-open at f/1.4 through to f/2 and know it will be sharp and have little to no flare. It's also fast to focus."
Mike notes: "This lens was the first to feature Canon's Sub-Wavelength structure Coating (SWC) to tackle ghosting and reflections. Using a technique found in nature which prevents the flaring and ghosting from happening in the first place, this wide-angle lens can be used when shooting against the light without the worry that reflections will spoil the image."

Julia uses the narrower angle of view of the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM lens for tighter graphic compositions such as this bride preparing for her garden wedding at Schloss Spielfeld in Austria.

Fabio uses the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM lens for its lightning-fast AF and resistance to flare and fringing. It's ideal for shots like this late afternoon scene of a ceremony at an Agriturismo close to Florence, Tuscany.

2. Best wide-angle lens for picking out details: Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM
"With the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM lens, you're forced to stay close to your subject, and it's fantastic," says Fabio. "I use it to break the invisible wall between me and the couple at the start of the wedding. Then throughout the day the bride and groom are more relaxed and they look to me for guidance and inspiration. It's all thanks to that lens, and I use it 80% of the time."
The same lens a firm favourite of Julia's, says Gil. "When photographing the bride, Julia always reaches for the 35mm. It's so fast to focus and the colours are perfect. With its narrower angle of view than a 24mm lens, it's also good for picking out details or isolating others that we don't want included."
Mike adds: "This is probably the standard lens for many wedding photographers. The EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM lens was the first to feature Canon's blue spectrum optic, which eradicated all traces of chromatic aberrations while maximising resolution of the lens. This lens produces a natural perspective to make viewers feel they are there in the scene. The fast aperture ensures that not too much is in focus, so that the main subject stands out from the background."
A professional grade wide-angle lens with a natural perspective, an f/1.4 aperture, and superb low-light performance and depth of field control.
Julia and Gil like to use a Canon EOS R with the Canon RF 50mm F1.2L USM for photographing and filming their wedding couples – and even handed it over to this couple in Barcelona, Spain, to use.

3. Best lens for isolating the subject: Canon RF 50mm F1.2L USM
"We used the Canon RF 50mm F1.2L USM lens on a Canon EOS R for a shoot in Barcelona and it's really amazing," says Gil. "It handles really well, the autofocus is incredibly fast and images are always sharp, no matter what aperture you use. We have complete confidence in it.
"At one point I was filming this couple that were strongly backlit. As they were moving towards me, I was running backwards, and the autofocus tracking stayed on the couple the whole time, like glue. The footage was sharp as well as free of any flare."
Mike describes this as "Canon's 'game-changing' lens" because it has brought something new to photographers and videographers alike. "There was once a time when super-fast apertures meant there was a compromise in overall image quality. This lens changed these rules, not only producing stunning image quality but delivering that super-fast aperture for low light or extreme shallow depth of field."
50mm f/1.2 prime lens for supreme clarity and sharpness right to the edge of the frame, plus remarkable low-light performance.

4. Best lens for environmental portraits: Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II
"When we want to venture outside for some atmospheric shots of the couple in a landscape setting, we'll reach for the Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L [now succeeded by the TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II]," says Gil. "We are real fans of this lens. When you know how to use it, it gives a unique look with wonderful, dreamy blur that can't be easily replicated in software, if at all. Clients are always asking about it. It also produces very soft glow in strongly backlit situations that's so beautiful and romantic. It's definitely one of our favourites."
This tilt-shift lens offers creative ways of shooting weddings, says Mike. "What could be considered an unusual lens for wedding photography, when used creatively is capable of producing truly unique images to isolate the subject and create dream-like effects not possible with ordinary optical designs."

A versatile tilt-shift lens, with a wide-angle focal length of 24mm, low distortion, and independent tilt and shift movements for maximum creative freedom.
Fabio mainly uses the Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM lens outdoors for its selective perspective and long lens compression effect. For example here it helped him to compress the distant mountains in this scene captured at a villa close to the historic city centre of Florence.

5. Best long lens for outdoor portraits: Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM
"When I shoot the couple outdoors and I want that incredible bokeh, the Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM lens is fantastic," says Fabio. "It's one of my favourite lenses in the world. I can use it at the maximum aperture of f/2 because it has incredible image quality.
"I also use it during the aperitivo [pre-dinner drinks] and during the dinner to separate the subject from the background. I can capture those romantic and intimate pictures of the bride and groom without intruding on them. For that, the focal length is perfect, and wide open the quality is superior to a zoom. It is also very fast to focus, which is so important because you don't get a second chance with weddings."
"A hidden gem within the EF lens range, this lens incredibly sharp," says Mike. "With its longer focal length and fast aperture, this lens can make people stand out even in the busiest environment, drawing the viewer's eyes to the important parts of the picture. The lens is ideal when you need to shoot from a slightly longer distance or in low light conditions."

Over 3 million blog posts were written today! Creating a blog is easy. But making a living from your blog is another story.
Can you still make a livable income from blogging in 2019? The game is different than it was. But it's still possible to earn a living from your blogging business.
You'll need patience and persistence. But if you do your research and follow the steps, you can have a successful blog.
Read on for more information about how to make a living blogging.
Can I Make a Living Blogging Soon?
There are bloggers making more than $10,000 a month. But the majority of bloggers don't make any money at all.
Why is this? It starts with traffic generation. If no one reads your blog, you won't make money. So, the first step in monetizing your blog is building readership.
How do you generate readership?
Start with a narrow niche.
Ideally, you'll write about a subject you're passionate about. That makes writing easier. It helps if you're an expert in the subject. If you're an attorney, write about the law. If you're a chef, write about cooking.
Once you've established yourself as a trusted expert, write posts that offer value to readers. For instance, free recipes or free advice.
Work on your search engine optimization (SEO).
If search engines don't know your website or blog exists, then readers don't know it either. A blog helps search engines discover your website as long as you post on a regular basis.
If you have an established service, like this website, adding a blog increases your traffic. When your readership grows, you can monetize. You won't make much money without first having a large pool of reliable readers.
SEO is tough and takes time. Don't get discouraged. Keep driving readers to your website and blog. That's what makes you valuable to advertisers.
Share your blog posts across your social media accounts. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, and LinkedIn are all great platforms for sharing your content.
Advertisements are one of the most common ways people make a living blogging. Cost-per-click ads (CPC) are sidebar banners. You're paid every time a person clicks on the banner ad.
Bloggers also earn through "impressions." These are cost-per-impression ads (CPMs). An impression is a person viewing your ad. Some bloggers get a fixed fee per a specific number of impressions.
Google AdSense is a great example of CPC and CPM ads. With the Google program, you place a banner on your site. Google places relevant ads based on your content.
When a reader clicks on the ad, you earn money.
Affiliate marketing through links is another monetizing tool for bloggers. Advertisers pay you when someone buys a product from a link on your blog. The link has a tracking code so the advertiser knows the buyer came from your site.
Look for products that are a good match for your blog content. The best way to use affiliate links is to incorporate the link organically into your blog content. But you can use banner ads as well.
Amazon Associates is an affiliate marketing network. There are many other affiliate networks.
Always disclose affiliate marketing to your readers. It's a legal requirement. But being honest with your readers maintains their trust.
You can also sell private ads. When your readership gets big, advertisers may approach you unsolicited. In this case, set your own rates for placing ads. There's no middleman like there is with affiliate marketing.
You can use banners, buttons, links, or post content in private ads. You can write entire posts that are sponsored by an advertiser.
But be careful. Your readers come to your blog for a specific type of content. Don't drive them away because you're so busy monetizing.
Once you're a trusted blogger, develop your own digital products. Write an eBook or create an online course. Ask your readers what types of information they'd find most useful. Then create the book or workshop based on their answers.
Sell your products at a reasonable price, and a good percentage of your loyal readers will buy them.
If you want your blog to be profitable, it needs to be a valuable resource for others. That doesn't mean you can't monetize an inspirational blog. But readers must find value in reading what you write.
Blogs are also great content marketing tools. Do you already have a product or service? Increase your sales through blogging. Blogging drives traffic to your website.
If readers gain valuable information from your blog posts, they'll come to you when they need the type of product you're selling.
The truth is, it's not easy making a living blogging. It takes work and dedication. It also takes some time establishing yourself as a trusted source and building your readership.
But making a living blogging is possible. The Internet isn't going away anytime soon and blogs aren't either.
For the majority of people, it's probably not a good idea to quit your day job. But if you blog on a consistent basis and build your readership, you might find you need to quit your day job.
Now you know how to make a living blogging! Blogging for a living isn't easy, but it's definitely possible.
Start with a blog with your own unique URL. Build up a readership through SEO. Once you have a significant readership, you're ready to sell ads or place affiliate links.
Always keep your readers in mind. They won't come back unless you're offering them value. Are you ready for your own blog? Get started here.

American Rescue Plan (Use of ESSER Funds)
In developing its plan, Coleman Schools has engaged in consultation with stakeholders and has given the public an opportunity to provide input. Specifically, we engaged in meaningful consultation with students, families, school and district administrators (including special education administrators), teachers, principals, school leaders, other educators, and staff. Further, the meaningful consultation extended to the Choctaw and Chickasaw Nations, civil rights organizations (including disability rights organizations) and stakeholders that represent the interests of children with disabilities, English Learners, children experiencing homelessness, children in foster care, migratory students, children who are incarcerated and other underserved students. Finally, the Coleman Schools' plan is in an understandable and uniform format, written in a language that parents can understand, orally translated and, upon request by a parent who is individual with a disability, provided in an alternative format accessible to that parent. Our Plan consists of the following:
• (1) The extent to which and how the funds will be used to implement prevention and mitigation strategies that are, to the greatest extent practicable, consistent with the most recent CDC guidance on reopening schools, in order to continuously and safely open and operate schools for in-person learning;
• (2) How the LEA will use the funds it reserved under section 2001(e)(1) of the ARP Act [20% of ESSER ARP Act formula funds] to address the academic impact of lost instructional time through the implementation of evidence-based interventions, such as summer learning or summer enrichment, extended day, comprehensive afterschool programs, or extended school year;
• (3) How the LEA will spend its remaining ARP ESSER funds consistent with the uses authorized in section 2001(e)(2) of the ARP Act; and
• (4) How the LEA will ensure that the interventions it implements, including but not limited to those implemented under section 2001(e)(1) [20% set-aside], will respond to the academic, social, emotional and mental health needs of students, and particularly those students disproportionately impacted by COVID-19, including students from low-income families, students of color, English learners, children with disabilities, students experiencing homelessness, children in foster care and migratory students
Part (1): Prevention and Mitigation Strategies for Operating Schools Safely
New HVAC ventilation systems throughout the school
Expansion of outdoor classroom facilities for all students in grades PK-12
Projects that provide clean and fresh air for students (replacement of molded walls, floors, etc)
Cleaning supplies to prevent the spread of COVID and other viruses
Additional transportation to provide better social distancing for students
Classroom Expansions for all students in grades PK-12
Part (2): Addressing the Academic Impact of Lost Instructional Time
Certified math and reading teachers to tutor students to help close the gaps created during COVID closures
Certified Math and Reading tutors to assist students in an Extended Day setting, during our After School Care Program
Curriculum and study aids to assist tutors and specialists as they work with students to regain learning losses
Additional staff for smaller class sizes for higher student impact
Software and curriculum materials to close gaps from learning loss
Retention of quality educators to help provide continuity of instruction for students
Part (3): Use of Remaining ARP ESSER funds
Unexpected crisis needs due to Covid
Cleaning and Prevention of the spread of Covid
Retention stipends for support personnel to provide continuity of students' needs

Is Too Much Vitamin D Good for You? Learn More About it!
Can You Possibly Overdo Vitamin D?
One question many people are asking is whether one can get too much of essential nutrients or vitamins in general including Vitamin D. Can you overdo vitamin D?
The answer to this question is Yes and No. Yes, you can overdo Vitamins if you are taking mega doses of vitamin supplements. No, you can't overdo Vitamins if you are taking fortified foods and fluids. This is because your body is capable of regulating any amount of nutrients from food and vitamins produced by the sun in the case of vitamin D.
Hypervitaminosis D, commonly referred to as vitamin D toxicity, is a potentially serious but rare condition that occurs where there is an excessive amount of vitamin D in your body. It usually happens if you are consuming more than 40,000 IU per day for several months or taking massive amounts at once.
Who is at risk of vitamins toxicity?
Children aged 18 years and below whose parents accidentally give them mega doses of vitamins.
People aged 18 years or older who take more than 10,000 IU of Vitamins per day for more than a year.
Elderly individuals who incorrectly take mega doses of vitamins.
Anyone who makes fortified foods with massive quantities of vitamins as a result of Industrial Accidents.
The overdose risks of vitamin D as a result of vitamin D supplements causes hypercalcemia. This condition is characterized by excessive accumulation of calcium in your body. When it occurs in your body, you experience symptoms such as vomiting, nausea, constipation, poor appetite, abnormal heart rhythm, confusion, and even kidney stones.
Keep in mind that if you feel sick immediately after taking Vitamins supplements, that is not an overdose. What you are experiencing is simply Vitamins side effects. Many people usually mistake them for an overdose but they are not the same thing.
The treatment for vitamins overdose includes the stopping the intake of excessive quantities. Your healthcare provider also may prescribe medications and intravenous fluids to counter the symptoms. Common drugs that many doctors prescribe to deal with Vitamins toxicity include bisphosphonates and corticosteroids.
The recommended dosage for most Vitamins is 2,000 IU per day for adults and 1,000 IU per day for children aged 12 years old and younger. These dosage requirements are based on the recommendations by the Institute of Medicine's Food and Nutrition Board. While high levels of calcium in your blood are used to determine vitamins overdose, it takes massive quantities to cause an overdose.
Even if symptoms of Vitamins including Vitamin D overdose are extremely rare, Vitamins toxicity is a reality in the vast majority of cases. So you should stick with your doctor's recommended dosages to minimize associated risks. If you have had an overdose, don't panic. Just get to your healthcare provider to prescribe medications for those symptoms.

Transfusional hemosiderosis is the accumulation of iron in the body due to frequent blood transfusions. Iron accumulates in the liver and heart, but also endocrine organs. Frequent blood transfusions may be given to many patients, such as those with thalassemia, sickle cell disease, leukemia, aplastic anemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome, among others. It is diagnosed with a blood transferrin test and a liver biopsy. It is treated with venipuncture, erythrocytapheresis, and iron chelation therapy.

Signs and symptoms
Transfusional hemosiderosis can cause cardiac arrhythmia and cardiomyopathy.

Causes
Transfusional hemosiderosis is a potential side effect of frequent blood transfusions. These may be given for a number of conditions, including:
 thalassemia.
 sickle cell disease.
 leukemia.
 aplastic anemia.
 myelodysplastic syndrome.

Mechanism
Hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying molecule in a red blood cell, contains iron. The body has limited ways to store and remove iron.  When red blood cells (RBCs) die, they are consumed by macrophages. Transfused RBCs have shorter lifespans that native ones, so they die and are consumed more frequently by the macrophages, which causes the latter to die from excess iron which is then released into the blood. Therefore, with frequent blood transfusions, iron builds up in the body over time. This can enter the liver, heart, pancreas, and endocrine organs. Free iron increases the production of oxygen radicals (mostly hydroxyl radicals) that cause damage to cells (particularly their DNA).

Diagnosis
Transfusional hemosiderosis can be inferred with a blood transferrin test. Blood ferritin may be increased with a number of other conditions, so is less reliable for diagnosis. A liver biopsy may be used, which is the most accurate diagnostic technique. The level of siderosis seen in a liver biopsy can be graded by severity.

Treatment
Transfusional hemosiderosis is treated with a number of therapies. Venipuncture (phlebotomy) removes blood. Erythrocytapheresis filters red blood cells from the blood. Chelation therapy removes iron from the blood. This involves delivering iron chelating agents such as deferoxamine, deferiprone or deferasirox. If iron overload has caused damage to end-organs, this is generally irreversible and may require transplantation.

Prognosis
Transfusion hemosiderosis can cause permanent damage to tissues that may lead to death. Tissue damage can remain even after chelation therapy. Outcomes are usually worse in patients who require blood transfusions compared to those who can have alternative therapies. Cardiomyopathy and cardiac arrhythmia are often a cause of death.

Society
Ted DeVita died of transfusional iron overload from too many blood transfusions.

The Rotary Club of Gibraltar held its annual Vocational Award Presentations and Speakers Party recently at the Royal Calpe.
The Rotarians offer these annual awards in recognition of people in our community worthy of special attention. The three awards presented on the evening covered the categories of, 'a young person', 'a civil or public servant', and 'an Elder'.
Also joining the gathering were many of the Speakers who come along to Rotary weekly meetings and help make these so interesting. Over the course of the last twelve months the Club has had the pleasure of being enlightened on a wide range of subjects, too many to mention!
Hosting this year's event, Tony Nation, President, said " Thank you for giving up your time to come and talk to us. You have all been wonderfully interesting and we are pleased that as a Club we have been able to help some of the charities and organisations you support. A toast to the Speakers".
He then went on to introduce the first award of the night. The Youth Award. "This year's recipient is Sean Frendo." Mr. Nation announced.
Sean was kindly nominated for this award by Johanna Ferrari and Karen Gomez from Sponsored Patients GHA. We congratulate him on his bravery, courage and spirit in enduring his problems.
The Civil Servant Award was presented to Melvyn Farrell.
Melvyn has served as Clerk to the Gibraltar Parliament and has been Gibraltar's electoral Returning Officer for several years. that Hansard is now made available within days of a Parliamentary session being held.
The final presentation was the Elder Award. This year the award has had its name changed. Tony Nation explained "Before we proceed to present this award, I would just like to inform you that this award has had a name change. It used to be called the Honoured Elder Award, but this year, in recognition of a very good friend of ours, who was a long-standing Rotarian and Past President of our Club and who sadly passed away earlier this year. With the kind permission of his family, this award will now be referred to as the Joe Gaggero Honoured Elder Award. This award is presented to an elder member of our community who continues to offer help and support to others within the community, mainly through voluntary work, and we hope by doing so, they keep themselves young.
So, the person who this year receives the Joe Gaggero Honoured Elder Award I am pleased to announce, is Mr. John Garro.
John is a volunteer who works with the Gibraltar Society for Cancer Relief, who has for years been dedicated to the service that this charity gives. He thoroughly deserves recognition and thanks.
The evening ended with the presentation of a picture of Gibraltar painted by Vin Mifsud to a fellow Rotarian, Nigel Hawes.
Nigel returns to the UK to be with his family Nigel has been an excellent example of what Rotary is all about – Service Above Self – and has put in a lot of hours and hard work during the time he has been with us, and he will be sorely missed. We send him on his way with our very best of wishes and good fortune for the future, he is to of course come and see us occasionally, and we sincerely hope that he finds a Club to his liking near him in Sussex where he can keep up the good work.

Irish watchdog's review of Facebook gives EU users more privacy & data protection rights
Following a "robust review" by Ireland's Data Protection Commissioner (DPC) millions of Facebook users in Europe, have improved privacy and data protection rights, especially in the area of facial tagging, according to documents released today by the DPC today.
But the Commission says that it will need to maintain engagement with Facebook to ensure new Facebook services to its platform comply with data protection requirements before they are released to users.
Read the DPC's earlier review of Facebook here and here, which outlined the changes Facebook was required to make.
Following the DPC review Facebook have implemented for EU users;
Tighter control over tag suggest/facial recognition
The provision of better transparency for the user in how their data is handled,
The provision of increased user control over settings,
The implementation of clear retention periods for the deletion of personal data or an enhanced ability for the user to delete items,
The enhancement of the user's right to have ready access to their personal data and the capacity of Facebook Ireland to ensure rigorous assessment of compliance with Irish and EU data protection requirements.
Why does Ireland's review of Facebook affect me?
Because Facebook's EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) offices are based in Ireland the Irish Data Protection Commissioner has jurisdiction over ensuring that the company complies with Irish and European legislation.
Findings and recommendations made by Ireland's DPC will impact Facebook's millions of users in Europe. The DPC said that it consulted closely with other data protection authorities in Europe during the review.
Tag suggest/facial recognition
New Facebook users in the EU no longer have access to tag suggest/facial recognition. This feature scanned photographs uploaded by users for faces and automatically tagged recognised faces with users' names. The DPC says that existing users' templates (we presume this means Facebook's database of recognised faces) will be deleted by October 15.
The commissioner praised Facebook's compliance with the review process, saying that the organisation went "beyond [the office's] initial recommendations" to comply with requests of other European Data Protection Offices' concerns over face tagging;
"I am satisfied that the Review has demonstrated a clear and ongoing commitment on the part of FB-I [Facebook Ireland] to comply with its data protection responsibilities by way of implementation or progress towards implementation of the recommendations in the Audit Report.
I am particularly encouraged in relation to the approach it has decided to adopt on the tag suggest/facial recognition feature by in fact agreeing to go beyond our initial recommendations, in light of developments since then, in order to achieve best practice.
This feature has already been turned off for new users in the EU and templates for existing users will be deleted by 15 October, pending agreement with my Office on the most appropriate means of collecting user consent. By doing so it is sending a clear signal of its wish to demonstrate its commitment to best practice in data protection compliance".
Defending Facebook's Philosophy
But the DPC report paints a picture of a detailed series of difficult debates between the company, and the Irish and European DPCs. The report cites an example of Facebook's instance that users use their real name on the site.
"Facebook Ireland cooperated with the review process, while vigorously defending its point of view, particularly where our recommendations, or the views of other DPAs, challenged the general philosophy of the company. This was true, for example, in relation to the company's insistence on maintaining its requirement that users use their real names on the network."
Facebook still has work to do
Facebook has yet to comply with some DPC requests but it says a time line has been put in place for these to be dealt with.
Facebook has to work to improve account deletion so that users can be assured that deleted account data is removed "beyond all doubt."
Facebook has to minimise the amount of personal data used for ad targeting
Removal of social plugin impression data for EU users, and
Better education for new users on the site.
Facebook's responsibility to monitor users
While the report outlines Facebook's responsibly to maintain users data securely, the Commissioner says that Facebook has a responsibility to monitor user behaviour to protect young users, but such monitoring should not be disproportionate.
"[there is a ]balance to be struck between Facebook Ireland's duty to protect young users from sexual predators, through monitoring certain user behaviour and reporting reasonable suspicions to relevant authorities, and the need to ensure that such monitoring and reporting is proportionate to the danger of serious consequences for young victims."
Comprehensive Assessment
The DPC called the review a "comprehensive assessment of Facebook Ireland's compliance with Irish Data Protection law and by extension EU law in this area," adding, "Facebook Ireland's delivery on its commitments in that Report was evaluated throughout the first half of 2012 and formally on-site in Facebook's European HQ in Dublin from 2-3 May and 10-13 July 2012"
The Irish/EU review came on foot of a detailed examination of Facebook Ireland's operations in December 2011. These changes won't affect Facebook's users outside of the EU.

Last Friday was a cold, foggy morning and we had just come out of a long bout of heavy rain. A lot of water was being released from Folsom Lake and the American River, near Folsom was running strong. I decided to spend some time photographing the area of Folsom that surrounds the historic Walker Bridge / Donald W. Alden Memorial Bridge. It was a great time to be out. The river roared as it created whitewater through the gorge. Quite a treat. In the 5 years that I have lived in the area, I never saw significant whitewater or heard the river roar.
The Walker Bridge / Donald W. Alden Memorial Bridge was built in 1893. It was sold 3 times: once to a man in Japan who wanted it for the steel but was never able to get it, once to the State of California who dismantled it and moved it near Walker, CA to span the Klamath River, and finally back to the City of Folsom who reinstalled it on its original abutments. It now serves as a pedestrian footbridge and an access point to the American River Parkway from the City of Folsom.

Rosetta captures high resolution images of comet 67P
Image copyright ESA/Rosetta/MPS
As Rosetta moved into what's officially called a "hyperbolic orbit", the cameras on board have been busy taking new images of the strange, icy body, comet 67P.
"It was very emotional to see these high-resolution pictures," said Dr Holger Sierks, principal investigator of Osiris - the main science camera system onboard Rosetta.
"We've never seen images like this before in this detail, and with the features we never really thought to see."
We might start to see the boulders moving, falling apart and even reforming
Dr Holger Sierks, Esa
The close-up image above shows a range of features on the surface including boulders, craters and steep cliffs.
The image was taken from a distance of 130km and the image resolution was 2.4m per pixel.
"We saw boulders all over the nucleus," said Dr Sierks.
"Some are the size of houses. And I want to understand how did they get into place, what are they made of, and how will they evolve?
"We will stay with the comet through its most active phase, and then afterwards through the decay of activity. We are expecting to see the comet evolve and the surface evolve. We might start to see the boulders moving, falling apart and even reforming."
Image copyright Esa/Rosetta
This image above was taken on 3 August, from a distance of 285km. Scientists are curious about the neck area joining the two main parts. They believe there may be fresher ice at this point but they do not yet know why.
This image shows what's termed the comet's "head" at the left of the frame, which is casting shadow on to the "neck" and "body" to the right.
The image was taken from a distance of 120km and the image resolution is 2.2m per pixel.
This image was taken from a distance of 550km. The exposure time of the image was 330 seconds and according to the European Space Agency, the comet nucleus is saturated to bring out the detail of the comet's activity. Rosetta will be very interested in the gas and dust that is coming off the surface. As it gets closer to the Sun, this activity will increase.
"We are already seeing dust lifting up from the surface. With the deep exposure, we are seeing the first jets - this is localised activity, localised jets of dust."
As well as the images, the Esa researchers are getting their first scientific data from 67P.
They've already identified water coming from the surface in a haze of gas.
"The rate at which it is escaping is two plastic cups per second," said Dr Sam Gulkiss, who is the principal investigator of the Miro instrument.
"That's about one-third of a kilogramme of gas per second coming off the nucleus. That is going to increase a hundred to a thousand times as it gets closer to the Sun."
Image copyright DLR/ESA
This image, resembling a colourful, spotty mushroom, indicates possible landing sites for the Philae lander, due to touch down on the surface on 11 November.
The red areas are in constant sunshine, while the blue are in constant darkness. The optimum is in the orange/yellow areas, and over the next month researchers will be taking measurements to try to identify the best location.

Striking diplomats delay visas for international students
Universities worried about damage to Canada's reputation
By The Canadian Press July 29, 2013
The unprecedented job action Monday by Canada's striking diplomats sparked recriminations in the tourism sector as an estimated 150 visa officers walked off the job in 15 foreign missions.
The Professional Association of Foreign Service Officers escalated the rotating job action after an attempt to seek binding arbitration with the federal government broke down last week.
Canada's tourism association blamed the diplomats for walking away from binding arbitration.
"We are disappointed the union has walked away from the mediation process, just as we were profoundly disappointed that they purposefully chose this time of year for their action — when we have the highest volumes of both visitor and student visas," David Goldstein, president of the Tourism Industry Association of Canada, said in an emailed statement.
But union president Tim Edwards said it did no such thing; he said the government imposed six untenable preconditions that would have prejudiced the outcome in its favour.
"That's patently false. We're the ones who offered binding arbitration in the first place. We would have preferred that it happened without preconditions," Edwards said in an interview.
Edwards said the union agreed to three of the government's preconditions but had it accepted the other three, it would have stacked the deck in the government's favour and predetermined the outcome.
"They're the ones who walked away from the table," said Edwards. "I can't emphasize this enough. Binding arbitration is still on the table, even with the three preconditions we've agreed to."
Edwards agreed that the effect of the continuing job action, now almost two months old, is having a "mounting and severe" impact on the tourism sector as well as foreign students and seasonal workers.
The tourism industry estimates that the job action will cost it $280 million this year.
In recent weeks, it has shown little sympathy for the union, saying the government should consider back-to-work legislation or replacement workers.
However, Paul Davidson, president of the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada, wasn't taking sides even though he said the job action is taking its toll on foreign students, their families and Canadian post-secondary institutions that rely on business from abroad.
"Both sides have their strategies, have their tactics," he said in an interview.
Foreign students contribute about $8 billion annually to the Canadian economy.
Davidson couldn't estimate the overall cost of the strike as some students, their visas requests to Canada stalled, chose to study in other countries such as the United States or Britain.
"The concern is a reputational impact if the word gets out that it's awkward, difficult, uncertain about whether you'll get a visa from Canada. That will do a lot of damage to Canada's reputation."
Davidson said that although Treasury Board President Tony Clement is directly responsible for negotiations with the union, other federal cabinet ministers have a stake in the talks and should be seized with finding a solution.
He identified Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird, Trade Minister Ed Fast and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander.
"We are disappointed that the union has refused our reasonable offer," said Clement's spokesman Matthew Conway in an email.
He said the union "breached good faith bargaining principles by releasing confidential negotiating documents."
Last week the union publicly released confidential correspondence from Clement's office to demonstrate the preconditions that it was being asked to agree to.
Monday's job action took place in Beijing, Mexico City and New Delhi, London, Paris, Abu Dhabi and Shanghai, among others.
The union wants wage parity with counterparts in other federal departments who the union says earn as much as $14,000 more for doing similar work.

Hurricane Season 2016 Officially Ends, Higher ACE Index
No Comments on Hurricane Season 2016 Officially Ends, Higher ACE Index
From a record-breaking extremely strong El-Nino last hurricane season, the Atlantic, the EPAC and the Central Pacific this season all were above normal. This was pretty much forecast but Mother Nature fools forecasters all the time. A short summary of the season follows:
For the Atlantic, 2012 was the last time there was an above average season. The Atlantic saw 15 named storms during Hurricane season, 2016. Out of the 15 named storms, the Atlantic basin had 7 hurricanes Alex, Earl, Gaston, Hermine, Matthew, Nicole, and Otto. What surprised many is that out of those 7 hurricanes, 3 of which were major hurricanes – Gaston, Matthew, and Nicole.
Many were wondering would Florida be spared a hurricane this year. After all these years and true to form, Florida had two Tropical Storms – Colin and Julia, and finally, Hurricane Hermine made landfall in Florida, the first since Hurricane Wilma in 2005. The Eastern coast of the US also was battered with South Carolina having landfall with Tropical Storm Bonnie and Hurricane Matthew.
Speaking of Hurricane Matthew, it was the longest-lived storm in the Atlantic and it was also the strongest with maximum sustained winds of 160 MPH, a category 5. Hurricane Matthew made landfall at Haiti, Cuba, and the Bahamas but as a category 4 storm during the trek of the Eastern Caribbean and the Atlantic.
Lest us not forget, there were other storms away from the US. Tropical Storm Danielle visited Mexico, Hurricane Earl in the Belize and lastly, very late in the season Hurricane Otto in Nicaragua.
So, how do we get a better feel of the hurricane season activity for this year? One method called ACE ACEAccumulated Cyclone Energy Index. ACE Index is using a sum of the energy accumulated with all the cyclones (tropical storms, sub-tropical storms and hurricanes) that happened to form within the hurricane season. Calculating ACE is done by using the square of the the wind speed every six hours during the storm's lifetime. Remember, a tropical depression is below 35 knots and it is not added. Hence, a cyclone that is longer lived will have a higher ACE indices verses a shorter lived cyclone which will have a lower ACE indices. ACE indices of a single cyclone is windspeed (35 knots or higher) every six hour intervals (0000, 0600, 1200, 1800 UTC UTCCoordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time.) or ACE = 104 kn2.
Total ACE:
$latex \Sigma = \frac{Vmax^2}{10^4} \ &s=2\ $
* Vmax is estimated sustained wind speed in knots. *
An average seasonal ACE in the Atlantic is between 105 -115 or mean average of 110.

No Comments on 2014 Hurricane Season. An El-Niño Year?
Before the 2014 Atlantic hurricane season began, it was touted by most experts to be an "El Niño" year mostly due to some the early indicators. A few things Meteorologists monitor when it comes to tropical development in general include: Wind Shear strength, Sea Surface Temperatures/Deep Sea Temperatures, measuring of the SOI (Southern Oscillation Index) in the case of an El Niño or La Niña, and the MJO (Madden Julian Oscillation). A simplified description of an El Niño is basically an area in the Pacific Ocean that begins to warm up to more than above average sea surface temperatures. An El Niño can cause strong winds to blow eastward over Mexico and help shear off the cloud tops of thunderstorms. This helps to reduce both the number and the intensity of tropical storms and hurricanes that might be trying develop in the Atlantic. Between February-May, just before the hurricane season would begin, there were a series of Equatorial Kelvin waves Kelvin wavesKelvin wave, in oceanography, an extremely long ocean wave that propagates eastward toward the coast of South America, where it causes the upper ocean layer of relatively warm water to thicken and sea level to rise. Kelvin waves occur toward the end of the year preceding an El Niño event when an area of unusually intense tropical storm activity over Indonesia migrates toward the equatorial Pacific west of the International Date Line. This migration brings episodes of eastward wind reversals to that region of the ocean which spawn Kelvin waves. Although such intense tropical storms of the western Pacific are associated with the development of El Niño, they may occur in other years to produce Kelvin waves that also propagate eastward but continue poleward toward Chile and California. in the Pacific which allowed for the possibility of a moderate to strong El Niño. While the Kelvin waves did transport the higher than normal sea surface heights, the atmosphere did not follow along with the Kelvin waves and the waves eventually faded away. Recently though, two more eastward moving Kelvin waves were seen via the Jason-2 satellite. Will these two Kelvin waves be the precursor for the El Niño? Even if they do, the El Niño would most likely be a weak to moderate one. Courtesy NASA/JPL-Caltech Another possible indicator of an El Niño is that the shift in the SOI has now been in negative territory. Although this is not a true indicator as of yet, the SOI needs to have sustained negative values below −8. Close but no cigar. Courtesy: Australia Bureau of Meteorology ******* For the math minded ******** There are a few different methods of how to calculate the SOI. The method used by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology is the Troup SOI which is the standardised anomaly of the Mean Sea Level Pressure difference between Tahiti and Darwin. It is calculated as follows:
$latex SOI = 10 \frac{(Pdiff – Pdiffav)}{SD(Pdiff)} \ $
where: Pdiff = (average Tahiti MSLP for the month) – (average Darwin MSLP for the month), Pdiffav = long term average of Pdiff for the month in question, and SD(Pdiff) = long term standard deviation of Pdiff for the month in question. The multiplication by 10 is a convention. Using this convention, the SOI ranges from about –35 to about +35, and the value of the SOI can be quoted as a whole number. The dataset the Bureau uses has 1933 to 1992 as the climatology period. The SOI is usually computed on a monthly basis, with values over longer periods such a year being sometimes used. Daily or weekly values of the SOI do not convey much in the way of useful information about the current state of the climate, and accordingly the Australian Bureau of Meteorology does not issue them. Daily values in particular can fluctuate markedly because of daily weather patterns, and should not be used for climate purposes.
So what does this mean for this year's Atlantic hurricane season? Probably not a whole lot. So far there is no empirical evidence either way to back up any claims of a possible El Niño. What is known is that in the Pacific, trains of Tropical cyclones in the Pacific are still developing where as in the Atlantic basin this has been a very slow hurricane season with one tropical storm and four hurricanes, with Hurricane Edouard being a major hurricane, albeit short lived as a major. As the Cape Verde Cape VerdeA Cape Verde-type hurricane is an Atlantic hurricane that develops near the Cape Verde islands, off the west coast of Africa. The disturbances move off the western coast of Africa and may become tropical storms or tropical cyclones within 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) of the Cape Verde Islands, usually between July to September. season is slowly drawing to an end, the remainder of the tropical cyclone development (if any) will most likely be in the Western Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico with the possibility of development closer to the U.S. Eastern coast. It would be foolish for me to to postulate whether the rest of the Atlantic hurricane season will continue to be as slow as it has been and whether the forecasted El Niño has been the cause (whether it is classified or not). As a stated in an earlier post:
So, how do we get a better feel of the hurricane season activity for this year? One method called ACE ACEAccumulated Cyclone Energy Index. ACE Index is using a sum of the energy accumulated with all the cyclones (tropical storms, sub-tropical storms and hurricanes) that happened to form within the hurricane season. Calculating ACE is done by using the square of the the wind speed every six hours during the storm's lifetime. Remember, a tropical depression is below 35 knots and it is not added. Hence, a cyclone that is longer lived will have a higher ACE indices verses a shorter lived cyclone which will have a lower ACE indices. ACE indices of a single cyclone is windspeed (35 knots or higher) every six hour intervals (0000, 0600, 1200, 1800 UTC UTCCoordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time.) or ACE = 104 kn2. Total ACE: $latex \Sigma = \frac{Vmax^2}{10^4} \ &s=2\ $ * Vmax is estimated sustained wind speed in knots. * An average seasonal ACE in the Atlantic is between 105 -115 or mean average of 110. Although technically we are in a Neutral state, this season "almost" seems more like a El-Niño year. An El Niño tends to hinder tropical cyclone development in the Atlantic, due to higher amounts shear. But in a true El-Niño year, you normally will have a very active season in the East Pacific (EPAC), with a few major hurricanes, and a subdued Atlantic.
In the figure below, as of this time frame, the ACE Index for this year is actually lower than last years (36.1200). That said, there is still October and November for the possibility of Tropical Cyclone development. If any Tropical Cyclones do develop, I will add them into the ACE Index accordingly. Secondly, the ACE Index numbers in the chart are from the Operational Advisories. The numbers may change when the Tropical Cyclone Reports are released. A blue asterisk will be placed next to a Storm name when a TCR has been issued.
Addendum: As of 10/11/14, 0000 UTC advisory with Tropical Storm Fay, the ACE Index has now surpassed last years ACE. In addition, recently developed Hurricane Gonzalo now a category 4 hurricane, the ACE Index will continue to rise significantly. This the first time in the Atlantic basin there has been a category hurricane 4 since Ophelia in 2011.

2013 Atlantic Hurricane Season: A Busted Forecast
No Comments on 2013 Atlantic Hurricane Season: A Busted Forecast
Although the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season has not yet concluded and we still have November to contend with before the season will officially be over, all indicators are beginning to make it obvious that the end of the show is near. If you recall in my July hurricane season forecast , all signals were looking for an active season. All the criteria seemed to fit but for some unknown reason, a big piece of the puzzle has alluded forecasters as to why this years hurricane season was very, very below normal. Yes, the Atlantic basin did have a total of 13 named storms, so in one sense the season has been "active" but there were only 2 hurricanes and both were minimal category 1 hurricanes. However, 13 named storms does really cannot tell the whole story.
An average seasonal ACE in the Atlantic is between 105 -115 or mean average of 110. Although technically we are in a Neutral state, this season "almost" seems more like a El-Niño year. An El Niño tends to hinder tropical cyclone development in the Atlantic, due to higher amounts shear. But in a true El-Niño year, you normally will have a very active season in the East Pacific (EPAC), with a few major hurricanes, and a subdued Atlantic.
No-Named Storm (AL152013)
As part of the post-season review, the low pressure system in December(AL152013) was classified as a subtropical cyclone and the ACE Index has been updated to reflect the ACE numbers during it's short lived status as a subtropical cyclone.
Two notes of interest: One is that of the two hurricanes this year, Humberto was just hours from beating the record for the latest first Atlantic hurricane of the season. Secondly, this will be the 8th year in a row where the Atlantic hurricane season has not had a major hurricane (category 3 or higher). In fact, 10/24/2013 was the 8th anniversary when Hurricane Wilma made landfall on the southwestern side of Florida as a Category three hurricane and headed northeastward and the areas of the Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties were impacted with category two winds. If by at the end of this year hurricane season with no major hurricanes, we will tie the record.
So is there a last hurrah for one or two more storms or is it time to fold the tents and call the season over? Technically, no as the hurricane season does not oficially end until November 30. This does not mean a cyclone cannot develop. It is just that a cyclone developing after the official season is over, is a somewhat rare event, but it is not impossible. Usually any late season storms develop either in the Southwestern Atlantic or more likely in the Caribbean. The two late season cyclones late that come to mind were Sandy (2012) and Mitch (1998). As of yet, it appears that the rest of November will be quiet and although there is a chance development of in the Caribbean due to the MJO MJOMadden Julian Oscillation - lift or upward motion into the atmosphere allows easier development of a tropical cyclone increased convection/thunderstorms activity., I am somewhat skeptical on that. I won't rule it out yet but for the moment I just am not convinced this will happen, IMHO.

The want of connection between the great words of religion and every-day life has bewildered and discouraged all of us. Christianity possesses the noblest words in the language; its literature overflows with terms expressive of the greatest and happiest moods which can fill the soul of man. Rest, Joy, Peace, Faith, Love, Light—these words occur with such persistency in hymns and prayers that an observer might think they formed the staple of Christian experience. But on coming to close quarters with the actual life of most of us, how surely would he be disenchanted. I do not think we ourselves are aware how much our religious life is made up of phrases; how much of what we call Christian experience is only a dialect of the Churches, a mere religious phraseology with almost nothing behind it in what we really feel and know.

Q: I changed my application bundle identifier in iOS. Do I now need to create a new provisioning profile? I am a bit confused about this and would appreciate some advice on how to do this with XF.

A: Yes. You would need to:

*

*Go to the Apple Developer portal into the Certificates & Profiles section

*Go to Identifiers and create a new App with the new Bundle Identifier

*Update your old Provisioning profiles you had created to point to the new "App Id"

*Download and Double tap to install it. You might have to restart Visual Studio

I would also recommend you to:

*

*Open Keychain Access and find the Certificates (dev & prod) you used to create the Provisioning profile

*Right click on it and export it as a P12 file using a password you create

*Store that certificate (with the password), along with the new provisioning profile. You will need these 3 to build the app on a different/formatted Mac, otherwise you will have to recreate Certificates and reassociate the Provisioning profiles to that certificate

A:
I changed my application bundle identifier in iOS. Do I now need to
create a new provisioning profile?

Yes, you need to create a new provisioning profile.
You can see the step 3 in Creating and Using Certificates,  you will be able to enter the description and a Bundle Identifier for the app ID.
Each provisioning profile matches the corresponding bundle ID. When you changed the bundle ID, you need a new provisioning profile.

Q: Error en estructuras soy nuevo en programación y me apareció un error el cual no puedo encontrar una solución.
El error especificamente se indica en ambos For, con lo cual pienso que puede ser una mala indicacion de la estructura, aunque intente cambiar todas las formas de indicar la estructura anidada sigue apareciendo el error.
error: expected identifier or '(' before '[' token

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

typedef struct piscinas{
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
}piscinas[20];
typedef struct galpones{
    struct piscinas datos_piscina;
}galpones[5];
typedef struct sucursales{
    struct galpones datos_galpon;
}sucursales[3];

int main()
{
    int aux_sucursal, aux_galpon, pis, i;
    do{
    printf("Indique la sucursal a la cual quiere acceder \n");
    scanf("%i", &aux_sucursal);
    } while (aux_sucursal<1 || aux_sucursal>3);
    do{
    printf("Indique al galpon al cual quiere acceder \n");
    scanf("%i", &aux_galpon);
    } while (aux_sucursal<1 || aux_sucursal>5);
    do{
    printf("Indique la cantidad de piscinas \n");
    printf("Minimo cantidad de piscinas: 2 \n");
    printf("Maxima cantidad de piscinas: 20 \n");
    scanf("%i", &pis);
    } while (pis<2);

    aux_galpon=aux_galpon-1;
    aux_sucursal=aux_sucursal-1;

    for(i=0; i<pis; i++){
        sucursales[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].temperatura=rand()%100;
        sucursales[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].corriente= rand() %201+150;
        sucursales[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].voltaje = 2;
    }
    for(i=0; i<pis; i++){
            printf("\nDATOS DE LA PISCINA %i \n", i+1);
            printf("Temperatura : %i \n",sucursales[aux_sucursal-1].datos_galpon[aux_galpon-1].datos_piscina[i].temperatura);
            printf("corriente   : %i \n",sucursales[aux_sucursal-1].datos_galpon[aux_galpon-1].datos_piscina[i].corriente);
            printf("voltaje     : %i \n",sucursales[aux_sucursal-1].datos_galpon[aux_galpon-1].datos_piscina[i].voltaje);
    }

    return 0;
}

A: Cuando defines una estructura así:
typedef struct piscinas{
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
}piscinas;

Con el typdef indicas que estás creando un alias llamado piscinas de struct piscinas. Es mas, este seria el código equivalente:
//Declara la estructura.
typedef struct piscinas piscinas; // "piscinas" es un alias de "struct piscinas".

//Define la estructura.
struct piscinas{
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
};

Volviendo a tu código:
typedef struct piscinas{
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
}piscinas[20];

Está claro que ahí NO estás creando un array de estructuras de 20 elementos. Más bien, estás creando un alias llamado piscinas de struct piscinas[20]. Como verás, en C es posible crear un alias a un array (que es un tipo complejo).
Por lo que ahora puedes declarar un array de estructuras de esta manera:
piscinas pis1;
piscinas pis2;

Otros ejemplos:
typedef int vector_t[20];
vector_t vector1; // Es equivalente a "int vector1[20]"

typedef char name_t[24];
name_t primerNombre; // Es equivalente a "char primerNombre[24]"

Para que no se confunda, no defina un alias, hágalo así:
typedef struct piscinas{
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
}piscinas;

//Luego declare el *array*:
piscinas pis1[20];

error: expected identifier or '(' before '[' token en la linea: sucursales[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].temperatura=rand()%100;

El motivo del error es porque sucursales no es un array de estructuras, sino, un alias de tipo, es de decir, sucursales es un alias de struct sucursales[20], no lo puedes utilizar como si fuera una variable (tal como lo ha dicho Pablochaches). Con el alias sucursales puedes declarar variables que representen a un array de estructuras.
Para corregir el error, debe declarar una variable de tipo sucursales al principio del main:
sucursales arraySuc;

Y luego lo podrás usar de esta manera:
arraySuc[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].temperatura=rand()%100

Y el error de compilación debería desaparecer.
Solución (2)
Sin embargo, le propongo otra solución más simple:
typedef struct piscinas{
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
}piscinas;

typedef struct galpones{
    piscinas datos_piscina[20]; // Declaramos el array de estructuras.
}galpones;

typedef struct sucursales{
    galpones datos_galpon[5];  // Declaramos el array de estructuras.
}sucursales;

sucursales datos_sucursales[3];  // Declaramos el array de estructuras.

Nota: Como galpones es un alias de struct galpones no necesitamos anteponer la palabra struct al declarar una variable de un tipo de estructura.
Luego puedes utilizar la "variable" de esta manera:
datos_sucursales[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].temperatura=rand()%100

También puede utilizar estructuras anónimas:
typedef struct { // --> no hace falta volver a especificar "piscinas".
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
}piscinas;

typedef struct { // --> no hace falta volver a especificar "galpones".
    piscinas datos_piscina[20];
}galpones;

typedef struct { // --> no hace falta volver a especificar "sucursales".
    galpones datos_galpon[5];
}sucursales;

sucursales datos_sucursales[3];

Use la solución que le parezca más fácil de entender. Si va a crear alias de tipo, trate de usar nombres más significativos, algo como:
SucursalArray surcusales1;
PiscinaArray piscinas1;

A: Fíjate en como estas declarando las estructuras:
typedef struct sucursales{
    struct galpones datos_galpon;
}sucursales[3];

Por el uso que le das mas abajo, supongo que entiendes que el resultado de esto
no es crear un array de struct sucursales, sino que al tipo "un array de
3 elementos de struct sucursales" le das el nombre de sucursales. (Mas
detalles
aqui)
De ser esa tu intención, hay 2 errores:
Primero, usar los nombres completos dentro de los structs:
typedef struct piscinas {
  float temperatura;
  float voltaje;
  float corriente;
} piscinas[20];
typedef struct galpones {
  piscinas datos_piscina; // struct piscinas -> piscinas
} galpones[5];
typedef struct sucursales {
  galpones datos_galpon; // struct galpones -> galpones
} sucursales[3];

Y segundo, no crear una variable que usar (recuerda que sucursales en este
caso es un tipo y tu lo usas como variable). Esta es la fuente de el error:
error: expected identifier or '(' before '[' token en la linea: sucursales[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].temperatura=rand()%100;

La solucion a esto es sencilla, crear una variable de tipo sucursales,
colocarla en los lugares donde uses sucursales como una variable (En mi
correccion usare suc como nombre, tu pon el que quieras).
Corrigiendo el código, te quedaría como:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

typedef struct piscinas {
    float temperatura;
    float voltaje;
    float corriente;
} piscinas[20];
typedef struct galpones {
    piscinas datos_piscina;
} galpones[5];
typedef struct sucursales {
    galpones datos_galpon;
} sucursales[3];

int main() {
    sucursales suc;
    int        aux_sucursal, aux_galpon, pis, i;
    do {
        printf("Indique la sucursal a la cual quiere acceder \n");
        scanf("%i", &aux_sucursal);
    } while (aux_sucursal < 1 || aux_sucursal > 3);
    do {
        printf("Indique al galpon al cual quiere acceder \n");
        scanf("%i", &aux_galpon);
    } while (aux_sucursal < 1 || aux_sucursal > 5);
    do {
        printf("Indique la cantidad de piscinas \n");
        printf("Minimo cantidad de piscinas: 2 \n");
        printf("Maxima cantidad de piscinas: 20 \n");
        scanf("%i", &pis);
    } while (pis < 2);

    aux_galpon = aux_galpon - 1;
    aux_sucursal = aux_sucursal - 1;

    for(i=0; i<pis; i++){
        suc[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].temperatura=rand()%100;
        suc[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].corriente= rand() %201+150;
        suc[aux_sucursal].datos_galpon[aux_galpon].datos_piscina[i].voltaje = 2;
    }

    for(i=0; i<pis; i++){
            printf("\nDATOS DE LA PISCINA %i \n", i+1);
            printf("Temperatura : %i \n",suc[aux_sucursal-1].datos_galpon[aux_galpon-1].datos_piscina[i].temperatura);
            printf("corriente   : %i \n",suc[aux_sucursal-1].datos_galpon[aux_galpon-1].datos_piscina[i].corriente);
            printf("voltaje     : %i \n",suc[aux_sucursal-1].datos_galpon[aux_galpon-1].datos_piscina[i].voltaje);
    }
    return 0;
}

On prospects for sounding activity cycles of Sun-like stars with acoustic modes
CHAPLIN, W. J., ELSWORTH, Y., HOUDEK, G. and NEW, R. (2007). On prospects for sounding activity cycles of Sun-like stars with acoustic modes. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 377 (1), 17-29.
Link to published version:: https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.11581.x
Data are now available on the Sun-like, p-mode oscillations of a growing number of late-type stars. With extension of these observations to dedicated, long-term campaigns, it will soon become possible to probe acoustically magnetic activity, and stellar cycles, by observation of systematic shifts in the mode frequencies giving additional information to the stellar dynamo theorists. Here, we use model computations of the damping rates of stochastically excited radial p modes to make predictions of the precision with which it will be possible to measure stellar-cycle frequency shifts of Sun-like stars along the lower main sequence. We assume the first analyses will average shifts across the most prominent modes to reduce uncertainties. We also make some predictions of the expected frequency shifts, based on existing stellar Ca II H& K data. Our main conclusion is that the basic properties of the acoustic signatures of the cycles should be measurable to reasonably high precision given only a few multimonth segments of data. It should also be possible to make inference on the surface distribution of the activity, through measurement of shifts of modes of different degree. Our computations also reveal an interesting feature in the predicted appearance of the acoustic mode spectra of stars cooler than about 5400 K: the modelled power spectral density of the modes shows two maxima, at different frequencies. By computing average shifts of modes across the two maxima, where the signal-to-noise ratio is highest, it should be possible to get the first measures of the frequency dependence of the p-mode shifts. This dependence provides information on the mechanism responsible for driving these shifts.

WHAT a great day we all had last Saturday in the FA Trophy. The lads put in a fantastic performance and South Shields are a very good team, it was a good game of football that everyone enjoyed.
The game was played in the right spirit and I thought the officials played their part in making the game so exciting.
What a great set of fans South Shields have, three coaches and many more travelled by cars and train. There was no need for segregation as everyone enjoyed a drink in the social club. They sang throughout the game and clapped our fans at the end.
We have received some excellent feedback about our hospitality and our facilities so everyone involved can feel proud of themselves.
The draw for the third qualifying round has now been made and we have to play away against Gainsborough Trinity on November 25. Our support has been fantastic both home and away, let's get behind the lads at Gainsborough and see if we can make it to the first round proper.
It was a very emotional day on Saturday. We held a minute's silence for Remembrance Day and a minute's applause for the young South Shields fan, Jak Fada, who sadly passed away last week. Many thanks to Wendy for the photo montage she created for the presentation to South Shields. They were touched by this gesture.
Dennis, our groundsman, has been struggling to cut the pitch with an extremely old mower but now thanks to the lottery we have been able to purchase a new one. It's cut the mowing time down by half.
A few match sponsorships are still available and we can also cater for hospitality packages and ball sponsorship for most matches. There are also opportunities for your child to be a mascot at a Stafford Rangers game. Contact the Commercial office on 602430, option one for more details.
