Phillip Joel Hughes (born 30 November 1988) is an Australian cricketer. He is a left-handed opening batsman who made his Test debut at the age of 20 after just two seasons with New South Wales.
Hughes was born in Macksville, a small town on the north coast of New South Wales, to parents Greg and Virginia. The son of a banana farmer and an Italian mother, Hughes was also a talented rugby league player who once played alongside Australian rugby league international Greg Inglis. He played his junior cricket for Macksville R.S.L Cricket Club, where he excelled so quickly that he was playing A-Grade at the age of 12. At the age of 17, Hughes moved from Macksville to Sydney to play for Western Suburbs District Cricket Club in Sydney Grade Cricket while he attended Homebush Boys High. He scored 141* on his grade debut and enjoyed a solid 2006–07 season scoring 752 runs at an average of 35.81 with a highest score of 142*. He represented Australia at the Under-19s World Cup in 2007. He was coached at Activate Cricket Centre in Mortlake.
After scoring runs prolifically for New South Wales youth teams and Western Suburbs in Grade Cricket, Hughes was handed a rookie contract by New South Wales for the 2007–08 season. After scores of 51 and 137 for the New South Wales Second XI against Victoria's Second XI, Hughes was rewarded with a call up by Blues selectors to make his first-class debut. He played his first senior game against Tasmania on 20 November 2007 at the Sydney Cricket Ground. At 18 years and 355 days, Hughes was the youngest New South Wales debutant since Michael Clarke in 1999. In a comfortable victory for New South Wales, Hughes opened the batting and got his career off to a solid start, scoring a fluent 51 and taking 2 catches.
Hughes had an outstanding debut season for New South Wales, playing 7 matches and scoring 559 runs at an average of 62.11 with 1 century and 6 fifties. The highlight of Hughes' excellent season came in New South Wales' Pura Cup final victory over Victoria. He scored 116 off 175 balls in the Blues' second innings to help put his team in a commanding position. At 19 years of age, this innings made him the youngest ever player to score a century in a Pura Cup final. Hughes was rewarded for his achievements by winning the New South Wales Rising Star Award and earning an upgrade to a full state contract for the 2008–09 season.
He was signed by Middlesex on a short-term contract, as cover for Murali Kartik for the beginning of the 2009 English cricket season. He was available for first six weeks of the season, and played in three County Championship matches, all eight of Middlesex's Friends Provident Trophy group matches and the first few matches in the Panthers' defence of the Twenty20 Cup. In most other years, a contract for the opening six weeks of the season would involve playing 4–6 Championship matches, some but not all FPT matches and no Twenty20, but the scheduling for 2009 has to accommodate ICC World Twenty20 and the eventually-cancelled Stanford Super Series. It has been noted that despite Hughes holding an Italian passport by virtue of his Italian mother, Middlesex resisted signing Hughes up as a Kolpak player and instead signed him as a foreign player. He enjoyed strong success in England, scoring 574 runs in his three first-class matches, including three hundreds, at an average of 143.50. Of his time at Middlesex, he commented "I thoroughly enjoyed it and the preparation has been great. The big thing that came out of it was that I played at three Test grounds I'm going to be playing on and got to experience them before this big series coming up. Lord's was my home ground there for Middlesex and I played at The Oval as well and Edgbaston. It couldn't have really worked out any better. The big thing was just going over there to experience the whole different culture really, the weather, the wickets and the bowlers as well."
Hughes hit back to back hundreds at the end of the 2010/11 season to earn Hilditch's praise. In his last two first class matches for NSW in the 2010/11 season he scored 54,115,138, and 93. Australia chairman of selectors Andrew Hilditch stated "I was thrilled for Phil, I think he turned the corner the last game. I spent a bit of time with him before the last Shield game and he seemed to be in a really good place. Having had a tough season, to emerge like he has is a credit to him."
Less than a week after his debut in first-class cricket, on 28 November 2007, Hughes made his List A debut against Victoria at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. While he was not originally scheduled to play the match, sickness to Australian opening batsman Phil Jaques handed him the spot. Just as he did in his first-class debut, Hughes passed 50 but was eventually dismissed for 68, top scoring for New South Wales in a "controlled" display. After New South Wales' wicket-keeper Brad Haddin was struck in the head by a top edge, Hughes took on the 'keeping duties for nine overs. On 17 May 2009, Hughes made his first limited overs century, scoring 119 for Middlesex against Warwickshire.
Ducking to a short ball that, according to critics, caused him problems in England.
After consistently making runs at domestic level, Hughes was called up to replace Matthew Hayden on Australia's tour of South Africa in February and March 2009. He was selected to make his debut in the first Test match starting on 26 February 2009 at the New Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg after making 53, then retiring, in Australia's tour match against the South African Board President's XI. He was dismissed for a duck in his first Test innings by Dale Steyn off just the fourth ball of the match, however he went on to top-score with 75 in the second innings, including 11 fours and a six.
Hughes hit his maiden Test hundred in the first innings of the second Test at the Sahara Stadium, Kingsmead, Durban on 6 March 2009, before adding another hundred in the second Innings. In doing so, Hughes, at the age of 20 years and 96 days, became both the youngest Australian since Doug Walters to score a Test century, and the youngest player from any country to score a century in both innings of a Test match.
Hughes takes a catch at training.
During the 2009 Ashes campaign, Hughes' unorthodox technique was exploited by fast bowlers, who targeted his upper body, and avoided bowling wide outside off stump, restricting his opportunities to play shots through the offside, most notably the cut shot. He was dropped from the team, for the third Edgbaston Test in favour of Shane Watson, who opened the batting in his place and provided the Australians with an extra bowling option.
He was a fringe player for the next year or so, playing some Tests to cover other injured batsmen. He played two home Tests against Pakistan in this capacity, covering the injured Ricky Ponting in the Boxing Day Test, then Simon Katich in the New Year's Test. He was then called up to the Test squad for the tour of New Zealand in March 2010 to replace Shane Watson in the first Test; he scored a rapid 86 from 75 balls in a small fourth-innings run chase in this Test.
Hughes was dropped from the 2010–2011 Ashes squad, but was called up for the Third Test as a replacement for the injured Simon Katich. He was a regular in the Australian team for the following year, playing in the last three Ashes tests, tours of Sri Lanka and South Africa, and then a home series against New Zealand, but his spot came under pressure due to his inconsistency during that time. He scored two big scores (126 in Colombo and 88 in Johannesburg), but his next-highest score was only 36, and he consistently fell to catches at slip and gully. He was heavily criticised for his performance in the two-test series against New Zealand, in which he managed only 41 runs at 10.25, and was dismissed exactly the same way in all four innings: caught at slip by Martin Guptill from the bowling of Chris Martin. He was dropped from the Australian team following the series.

Math problem brainteasers tend to be much trickier than the puzzles where you have to spot the difference. You must remember arithmetic from your childhood, pay close attention to detail, and think creatively.
The math equation below will require lots of creative thinking. It has two correct answers. Most people can figure out the more obvious answer but the makers of the puzzle (Go Tumble) say only 1 in 1,000 people can find the second answer.
Once you identify the pattern, finding an answer of 40 isn't too difficult. But can you identify another pattern among these equations and find the second answer? It's pretty tricky so you'll have to think outside the box.
Next page: Keep reading to find out the second answer.


I remember the good old days when President Obama and his Justice Department weren't so worried about nasty racists and felons having guns. I remember when President Obama and his Justice Department refused to do anything about New Black Panthers with guns, even New Black Panthers with criminal records possessing firearms and others threatening to kill cops.
This week President Obama announced legally dubious plans to force private citizens to behave as if they were federal gun dealers and threatened to place the names of certain Americans on a list to prevent them from obtaining firearms. He sought to expand background checks to gun transactions that Congress has long exempted from federal interference.
President Obama claimed he was very concerned about the wrong people having guns.
He wasn't always so concerned about the wrong people having guns.
According to this criminal complaint, in 1978, Jackson "with another black man did stab and rob comp[lainant] on the highway 4024 W. Girard Ave. . . Charged:" robbery, theft, possession of an instrument of a crime, probation offense with a weapon , criminal conspiracy, simple assault and aggravated assault. On January 10, 1979, Jackson was sentenced for robbery and criminal conspiracy convictions, both first degree felonies under Pennsylvania law.Mike Roman has reported at Election Journal that Jackson has also been arrested and served time for dealing drugs.
What about King Samir Shabazz, the other New Black Panther posing with firearms?
Jackson's election day partner, King Samir Shabazz also has a long arrest record including possession of an instrument of a crime (guilty), simple assault (guilty), aggravated assault, reckless endangerment, burglary, another aggravated assault, criminal trespass, theft, terroristic threats, another simple assault, reckless endangerment, resisting arrest, harassment, disorderly conduct, trademark counterfeiting (guilty), and unauthorized transmission of a sound recording (guilty).
One of them was Panther "Field Marshal" Najee Muhammad, who is seen in a Panther video called "Training Day" in which he encourages blacks in DeKalb County, Georgia, to don ski masks, lie in wait behind shrubs, and kill police officers with AK-47s.Following that exhortation he mocks the hypothetical victims' grieving widows.
These gangsters with guns seem like the sort of people the president and Attorney General Loretta Lynch should be concerned about if you are to believe that they really care about the wrong people having guns.
Of course President Obama really is concerned about the wrong people having guns — hisdefinition of wrong. Contrary to the Rule of Law, "wrong" is a function of who you are to this president, not what you do. Otherwise, President Obama's Justice Department would have long ago held these gangsters accountable for their brazen disregard of the law.

Your student is enrolled in a fitness class at Capital High School. We do a variety of activities in class to improve one's cardiovascular endurance, as well as work on the other fitness components of flexibility, muscular strength, muscular endurance, and body composition. Hopefully, your student is excited about improving his or her fitness level, and has fun while doing it.
This year during some of our outdoor cardio work, we would like the students to have the opportunity to run as a group off campus. Running circles on the track gets boring, even though we try to provide various lap options. We have mapped out routes within a close boundary to the high school that vary in length from one half to two miles. Each may be easily completed within a class period, granted the student exhibits quality effort. All routes are one sidewalks or bike/pedestrian paths. Safety issues will be reviewed with your student before each run. Students will run in groups of two or three. As instructors, we will be moving back and forth between those in front and those moving at a slower pace, to ensure all class members are accounted for and to handle any situations that may arise. Instructors will have cell phones or radios for emergency purposes.


When you got a really big codebase and lots of developers working on it, releasing new features and bugfixes every 2-3 weeks, it seems impossible to migrate to Zend Framework 2, soon.
That's because you can't stop further development, you have customers waiting for the new features, they wait for bugfix releases, to get stuff running, that's buggy, you have more than 1mio lines of code and possibly > 100 active developers on that codebase. How can you migrate? I stombled accross this problem already when the first ZF2 betas came out and startet to write some code that should solve the problem.
The result is HumusMvc, it integrates Zend Framework 2's ModuleManager and ServiceManager in a ZF1 application.
First of all, you create a new skeleton for you application. Simply clone the HumusMvcSkeletonApplication and use it as base for you skeleton app.
At the next step, you create a repository per module you have in your old ZF1 application. Put the source code in the "src/" directory of that module, create a Module.php file, name the Module, put the module configuration in it, etc. - in other words, create a simple ZF2 module out of your ZF1 application module. If you use HumusMvcAssetManager, too, you can also provide a public directory in your module and use the asset manger. That way you can override assets in a very similar way you override view scripts in a ZF1 application.
If you use ZF1 with the Resource-Autoloader, than you don't have psr-0 compliant classnames, so define your autoloading simply with classmap autoloader.
In order to install your module, just require it with composer.
In your module.config.php you provide your front_controller configuration, you have to tell the front controller, that you have a module, where it can dispatch.
You can now define some resources with ZF2's service manager in your module config file. You can remove those resources from bootstrapping later. HumusMvc ships with Navigation, Translator and Locale factories, so you don't need to handle these, just configure them.
If you have something like a db connection, that was bootstrapped in your old application, you need to do this again. Therefore you use the "onBootstrap" event. Well, you could define everything right now with the service manager, but that is exactly that much work, we wanted not to do now, because that would stop the further development for quite a time.
Here is a short example you to bootstrap db connection on every request and put the application configuration into Zend_Registry.
At first, I recommend to remove all "onBootstrap" methods when neccessary and put this stuff in your service manager, so you only instantiate the objects, when they are need, not on every request.
In the next refactoring rounds, you can refactor only one module at a time, so development in the other modules can still be done. Put all stuff in the service manager and use it as a service locator inside your application. Remove Zend_Registry everywhere. When you are done with that, use a php namespacer tool (or do it by manually) and refactor to a namespaced codebase. Remember, code is per module, so you can do this step module per module. Further bugfixing and development of new features is still possible.
You should now have a very flexible and modern Zend Framework 1 application, that makes use of a lot of stuff from Zend Framework 2, already: Service Manager, Module Manager, Event Manager, just to name a few. You don't have any expensive upfront bootstrapping any more, you moved everything to the service manger. You should have a namespaced codebase. You use ZF 2 classes much more, than ZF1 classes. - Now it's time to do the final migration.
Refactor all controllers, refactor route configuration refactor all view scripts, and so on. Now it's time for the hard work, we skipped before - but we had a couple of month time to bring our codebase to something, that _can_ be refactored to a ZF2 codebase very fast.
What we see here, is a class with several dependencies: The first two obvious dependencies are "SomeObject" and "Zend_Config_Ini", but addiotional with have also the dependency to the path of the config file ("path/to/my/configfile.ini") and the APPLICATION_ENV constant. So all together we have 4 dependencies, two of them to other objects. The problem starts, when I want to extend this class or I want to write unit tests and need to mock a lot of stuff. Let's improve this example and make it DI enabled.
SomeClassWithDependencies is now DI enabled code. It has no hard dependencies on a concrete instance, instead it gets its dependencies injected. The main difference is now, how you use the class. Before the refactoring, you could simply instantiate the class and work with it. No you have to do some wiring upfront.
If you use this class a couple of times in your application, you have redundant code everywhere you instantiate the class. Imagine even how complex things can be, if we have hundreds of classes like that. Where to put the wiring? The answer is: in a inversion of control container. An inversion of control container is simple object, that creates all services for you and holds the instantiation wiring.
A DIC gets configured and is able to instantiate objects from its configuration. Ralph Schindler said: "DiC's require that you meta-program. You configure it, the container does all of the new calls. This means that instead of programming, you're metaprogramming." DIC's get their configuration and additional some DIC's (like Zend_Di) have the abbilities for auto-wiring and auto-instantiation.
A service locator instantiates objects by calling factories or closures. It isn't able to auto-wire or auto-instantiate. It can only create, what is defined in its factories and closures. However, when the service locator doesn't get injected into an object, so that the consuming object is able the pull soft dependencies from it, it isn't a real service locator, just a simple container that produces instances by name.

The seven islands of Polewali Mandar or Tonyaman Archipelago become a hot topic among tourists these days are belongs to Indonesia. One of them is called Dea-Dea and it has a unique charm for everyone to enjoy. Like others, it belongs to Binuang Sub-District and offers an easy access to tourists (especially through Tonyaman Port). It is true that each of those islands offers a distinct allure. So, what about this one? Visitors are able to find tons of cats living on this island, as these cute animals live abundantly and comfortably there without any disturbance of human. No wonder, there is another name of this site which is "Kucing" (Cat) Island.
In terms of nuance, Dea-Dea Island is similar to that of Japan's Tashiro Island. The reason is none other than the presence of hundreds of cats that live in this site. Some tourists may ask from where these cats come from for sure. Well, according to local guides, people who live in nearby islands threw wild cats to Dea-Dea in the past. No wonder, as the time went by, these animals reproduced and grew abundantly! What about the landscape of the island, though? The island is smaller than Battoa and Salamaq, but it features nice beaches and hills.
Once arriving at the island, tourists may see hundreds of cats welcoming them right away. The fact is that these animals are able to survive there without any help of humans. That means they look for foods and mate naturally, which causes an uncontrollable increase of population. Despite their cute appearance, these cats are considered wild animals so tourists can't approach them carelessly. Some of them are quite tame, though. In this case, visitors should carry cat foods so that they can feed these cats and get along well with them.
For those visiting Dea-Dea Island, they should not forget to carry a camera. They can use it to take selfies with those cats, after all. The next tip is that tourists should consider coming with a local guide. This person helps everyone to get around the island in an efficient manner and he may tell tourists how to approach the cats safely. Even though it takes some money to get the service, it is going to be a worthy expense.
What is more? Aside from watching wild cats, tourists can explore Dea-Dea Island for its natural beauty. The best part of the island perhaps is the coast, where tourists can find a beautiful sea panorama and feel its comfy nuance. Once again, it is important to carry a camera so that tourists can take some good pictures of the sea.
From Polewali Mandar Regency, tourists only need to get to Tonyaman Port in order to rent a boat to Dea-Dea. This trip only takes about 15 minutes, as the distance is 7.3 km. It can even be faster if tourists take Poros Majene – Mamuju Street. Once arriving at the port, they must find a reliable boat service and head to Kucing Island right away.
Recommended hotels are available in Binuang Sub-District.

Q: unzip a large multipart (spanned) gzip file on AWS S3 bucket I have a huge csv file (about 60Gb), which is zipped and is stored as a multipart (spanned) gzip file on a s3 bucket. The individual files are like:
file.csv.gz
file.csv1.gz
file.csv2.gz
file.csv3.gz
....
file.csv15.gz
Each file has a size of 512Mb. I need to unzip them into a single csv file.
How can I do that?

A: cat file.csv.gz file.csv1.gz ... file.csv15.gz | gzip -dc > file.csv
Note that you can't use file.csv*.gz, because the order will not be what you want, for example putting file.csv10.gz before file.csv2.gz. If you renamed them to file.csv00.gz, file.csv01.gz, etc., then you could just:
cat file.csv*.gz | gzip -dc > file.csv

By Sam Laskaris Writer Six Nations traditionally has its share of athletes who make local, provincial, national and even international headlines. And things were no different during 2022. In a two-part series which begins today, and continues in the Dec. 28 issue of The Turtle Island News, we'll take a look back at some of those local athletes who experienced glory during the past 12 months. SIX NATIONS SNIPERS The Snipers were the cream of the crop during their 2022 regular season of the Arena Lacrosse League (ALL) East Division compiling a 10-2 mark. And the Six Nations squad kept up its winning ways in the post-season, capping things off by winning its Ontario-based circuit. The Snipers downed the Whitby Steelhawks 16-11 in the legaue's championship final, which was held…

Many immigration lawyers find it hard to market themselves these days. While there may be a lot of work out there available, you also have a lot of competitors out there vying for the same clients. You need to find a way to not only reach more people, but to differentiate yourself from the other immigration law services out there. If you've found that you're struggling to do this, here are a few tips that will hopefully help you out.
Many immigration lawyers focus solely on the area around them. They market themselves to people in their city or state, limiting the number of potential clients. However, thanks to the Internet, you can now easily market your services to people from all over. It's easier than ever to spread your message, and to reach people from further away.
Billboards might reach people within your town, but a solid website and a social media marketing campaign could reach ten times as many people from all of the neighboring towns.
Another limitation that many immigration lawyers put on themselves is language. When marketing their services, most immigration lawyers stick to marketing in English. This is particularly true when it comes to their websites, as many do not take the time to offer their site in other languages. But by creating multi-lingual copies of your website, you make it so entire groups of people are now able to learn about your services and contact you.
Making a multi-lingual website isn't difficult, and likely won't cost you too much money. You just need to hire someone who speaks the languages you want to market in, and maybe create a few new pages on your site. If you're unsure of what languages to go with, think about the areas you're marketing in, and what the population of that area is like.
Finally, you need to find a way to make yourself different from the other immigration lawyers out there. There are a couple of ways that you can do this. The primary thing you need to do though is decide what you want your niche to be. Rather than trying to market to everyone in every location, you should narrow your focus.
Maybe you could offer a specific kind of immigration law services. Another option is to market to a specific area, or based on a passion of yours related to immigration. For example, you could focus solely on family-based immigration, or on business-related immigration from a specific country.
Being a general immigration lawyer makes it hard to stand out from the crowd, so you want something that makes you different.
Getting your immigration law services noticed isn't always going to be easy. As soon as you think of a way to differentiate yourself, you may find that someone else in your area had the same though. The key to any successful marketing strategy - and especially when it comes to immigration lawyers - is to always look for new methods. The marketing method you use today might not work next week, and it's important to always look for new opportunities. This doesn't mean you need to change around your business model every time a competitor comes along, but simply that you are always aware of the situation around you, and have ideas ready to keep yourself noticed.
Hopefully the above tips are enough to get you started. If you can find some creative ways to differentiate yourself from the competition, you will hopefully see an increase in clients as a result. If you have any questions, or need some more ideas on how to market your immigration law services, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Knit, Lola, Knit: "Book 'em Dano, I'm 5-0!"
I've been busily crafting away this weekend. And so far there's no end in sight! Well, until next week. My sewing machine decided to die on me Friday night right in the middle of the pirate skirt. See, I had a method to the sewing for Halloween. I decided to work from the bottom up, and the easiest to the most difficult, to kind of get the machine (and me) warmed up. So I started with the underdress, with the ruffle. Easy enough, a few seams and some elastic. Unfortunately I forgot that my machine (which was given to me by my mom for *free* - so I'm very thankful for it, except for the fact that it's very, very, old and hates me) doesn't like to have the tension changed. At all. Because it will never go back to how it was after paying $40 dollars to have it fixed and cleaned up last time. No matter what you do. So I eventually had to give up for a bit, until I got down to my sisters to borrow her machine. Which is heaven itself, and of course I never ever want to give it back to her. So on Sunday the sewing commenced again, this time at a ripping pace. My sister has a Baby Lock and let me tell you, I can't get enough of it. It's computerized, makes inserting a bobbin a dream and has so many features and stitches it's a tragedy that I'm not doing more with it while I have it. This week is *crazy* though, so I'll have to just keep borrowing it from her... or something like that. So the pirate costume is almost complete. Just a little tweaking to do with the vest and maybe a bit with the skirt (hem needs to come up) and I'm good to go!
I also made progress on the Crafster Circular Shrug, and since I was babysitting last night for the cousins, am almost done! Just a couple more inches of 2x2 ribbing to go. I'm hoping I didn't fall prey to the "this-doesn't-really-need -*20*-inches-for-the-body-so-I'll-end-here" thinking that many people have run into and then not been too happy with how short their shrug was, but, hey, I'm sick of it and want to wear it already, so I'm ending, alright? We'll see how that turns out. And if it's not so good, I'll just do another one, in a smaller gauge, and a pretty red color. I'm also thinking it's going to need a lot of ironing or something of the sort to flatten it out. It's pretty stretchy right now.
The Halloween party is coming along! That's why this week is so crazy, I have a million things to do to get ready and I still need to finalize what food I'm going to do. I remembered that my mom always used to make us chili on fritos for the night of Halloween which was yummy, so I thought about maybe doing that and having the small bags of fritos that you just add your chili to and eat right out of! Takes care of the paper bowl thing too! Along with some other little "finger food" (no pun intended) and some dessert I think I'll be good to go. I think we're going to have some games going on in the kitchen like "donut on a string" and bobbing for apples. Then in the front room will be scary movies playing (more old than scary) and downstairs some Halloween dance jams going on. I'll be sure to take pictures. The house is looking spook already with cobwebs, blackened wreath, scary pictures, candles, red and black lights and hopefully some tombstones out front by tonight. Still haven't found time to carve a pumpkin! But will have to since roasted pumpkin seeds are a must!
I'm also preparing for church "Enrichment Night", which is this Thursday also at my house. I'm giving the lesson on "Emergency Preparedness" and might even be teaching the demo on jam making. So it's going to be a fun week!
Just wandering through. I am in awe of your knack with the yarn, definitely a lost art. Not many people seem to have much time for books either... you have a nonpareil set of talents.

Coronavirus Government Health Care News
Biden assails Trump over COVID-19 response
Former Vice President Joe Biden criticizes the Trump administration's response to coronavirus in Wilmington press conference on March 12. | DBT PHOTO BY JACOB OWENS
WILMINGTON – On the day that Delaware state officials announced that positive coronavirus cases had grown to four and the governor declared a state of emergency, former Vice President Joe Biden returned to his Wilmington home to issue his plan on how to address the health crisis.
He called for increased testing of the virus known as COVID-19, preparation of federal resources in response and fast-tracking of a vaccine. Above all though, Biden called for leadership from the White House and policy "led by science."
Biden assailed the Trump administration's response to COVID-19, calling it mismanaged and xenophobic.
"Let me be crystal clear: the coronavirus does not have a political affiliation … It will not discriminate based on national origin, race, gender, or zip code," Biden said at a press conference held at the Hotel du Pont in downtown Wilmington, his first stop in his home state since becoming the Democratic presidential frontrunner. "A wall will not stop it. Banning all travel from Europe, or any other part of the world, may slow it — but as we have seen — it will not stop it. And travel restrictions based on favoritism and politics — rather than risk — will be counterproductive."
Biden has formed a Public Health Advisory Committee, including former Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy, former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. David Kessler and leading professors, to counsel his campaign on the pandemic and how to respond.
"We will lead by science," he said. "Downplaying [COVID-19], being overly dismissive or spreading misinformation is only going to hurt us and further advantage the spread of the disease."
Biden criticized President Donald Trump's decision two years ago to eliminate White House National Security Council Directorate for Global Health Security and Biodefense, an office created by the Obama administration after the 2014 Ebola outbreak to helps coordinate responses to global public health crises.

He also called for federal funding and guidance to ensure anyone who needs to be tested based on medical guidelines to be tested free of charge, and that high-risk patients have easy access to tests. Biden said that the White House should be reporting daily on the spread of the virus.
"The administration's failure on testing is colossal. It is a failure of planning, leadership, and execution," he said.
To help facilitate testing, Biden called upon the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, private labs, universities, and manufacturers to establish hundreds of mobile testing sites — at least 10 per state — and drive-thru testing centers to speed testing and protect health care workers.
Biden also said that Trump should order the Federal Emergency Management Agency to prepare to work with local authorities in establishing temporary hospitals with hundreds of beds, and that the Department of Defense be prepared to provide medical and logistical support.
"A week from now, a month from now, we could need an instant, 500-bed hospital to isolate and treat patients in any city in the country. We can do that — but we aren't ready yet, and the clock is ticking," he said.
Biden also called for the acceleration of the development of treatments and a vaccine, noting that it will be months for a safe vaccine to be ready for the public.
"We must fast-track clinical trials within the National Institutes of Health, while closely coordinating with the Food and Drug Administration on trial approvals, so that the science is not hindered by the bureaucracy. And, when we do have a vaccine ready to go, it should also be made widely available, free of charge," he said.
In addressing COVID-19's economic impact, Biden called for the Trump administration to worry more about aid to Main Street rather than the publicly discussed tax breaks for Wall Street.
"This crisis will hit everyone, but it will hit folks who live paycheck-to-paycheck the hardest, including working people and seniors," he said. "Another tax cut to Google or Goldman or millionaires won't get the job done."
Biden noted that the virus's economic and societal impacts would cause job losses, childcare issues, food insecurity, lack of access to the internet, foreclosures and evictions, small business bankruptcies and more if greater aid isn't provided.
"It is a national disgrace that millions of our fellow citizens do not have a single day of paid sick leave," he said. "We need — both — a permanent plan for paid sick leave and an emergency plan for everyone who needs it due to the outbreak."

Cognizant of the limits of the federal government, Biden advised creating a State and Local Emergency Fund to make sure governors, mayors, and local have the needed resources to address the crisis. He said the monies could be used at the discretion of local leaders for whatever they need most, from health care resources to cushioning the economic impact.
In ending his roughly 12-minute speech, Biden returned to the idea of leadership amid the growth public health crisis.
"No president can promise to prevent future outbreaks. But I can promise you that when I'm president, we will prepare better, respond better, and recover better," he said. "We will lead with science. We will listen to experts and heed their advice. We will rebuild American leadership and rally the world to meet global threats. And I will always, always tell you the truth. That is the responsibility of a president. That is what is owed to the American people."

Milliamp is pleased to be providing ongoing electronics/PCB design and manufacturing assistance to DistriNet @ KU Leuven for a trial involving monitoring the storage and transportation of Yellow Fever vaccines in Democratic Republic of the Congo.
The UN World Health Organisation (WHO) is current working on a programme to vaccinate more than 15.5 million people against Yellow Fever across Angola and Democratic Republic of the Congo in response to the ongoing Yellow Fever epidemic in West Africa with a potential to kill millions if left unchecked.
One of the key problems for the medical staff is the safe storage and transportation of active Yellow Fever vaccines, which rapidly spoil and become ineffective if stored at incorrect temperatures, common in areas where electricity is transient or storage facilities are basic. KU Leuven is using a novel system to monitor the storage temperature of vaccines across a number of medical facilities using LoRaWAN technology, including "smart fridges" to alert via the Internet if vaccines are likely to be damaged.
Milliamp is providing it's hardware and PCB design services, as well as expertise in LoRaWAN technology to help make the trial a success. If you have a requirement for LPWAN or IoT technology development – both hardware design and software development – please get in touch to see how we can help!

Forza Motorsport 4: Complexity meets accessibility
Forza Motorsport 4 is the franchise's most ambitious and expansive racing title to date, delivering an incredibly thorough racing experience exclusively to the Xbox 360.

Now playing: Watch this: Game trailer: Forza Motorsport 4
It's one of the last mutually exclusive genres left in gaming. PlayStation owners have Gran Turismo and Xbox 360 loyalists have Forza Motorsport. Both franchises are proven winners, and the latest incarnation on Xbox 360 allows Kinect users the chance to race controller free. But does that ambition steer Forza away from what it does best?
Forza Motorsport 4 packs in such a shocking amount of content and detail, most racing buffs will salivate just at the introduction movie. Sure, it can be a bit overwhelming for people who don't have transmission fluid running through their veins, but part of the reason I've become so fascinated with the game is partly because of its incredible sense of accessibility.
Literally anyone, regardless of their familiarity with the Forza franchise, can sit down and feel a sense of accomplishment by jumping into the game's enormous career mode. The game adapts to any skill level, providing gamers with as much help as gas and braking cues or complete hands-off racing.
For those who have mastered Forza 3, there is a fair amount of repetition to embark on in Forza 4, especially early on, as you'll be driving some of the same cars. Of course your path in the game will branch off organically as you choose to ride different cars and develop affinities with various manufacturers.

Graphically speaking, Forza 4 makes for some genuine jaw-dropping moments, due mostly to the painstaking amount of detail in each and every car, not to mention the absolute gorgeous racing tracks represented in the game. It's hands down the best-looking Forza game to date.
Xbox 360 owners can rest assured that the racing void has been properly filled by Forza 4. But how does the alternative controls play out? Those curious about Forza's Kinect and Wireless Speed Racing Wheel compatibility should read on for Scott's take.
Hard-core racing games sometimes feel like one part flight simulator, one part Pokemon: between endless tune-ups and collecting/unlocking hundreds of vehicles, some of the fun gets lost in the shuffle. The Xbox 360's Forza series has stolen the crown as of late from the increasingly joyless Gran Turismo franchise on the PlayStation, mostly because it's trying so hard to bring that fun back.
This year's Forza 4 doesn't change too much of the underlying game from what you remember in Forza 3, but it's all bigger, better, and prettier-looking--and, aside from online social matchmaking improvements, it now works with Kinect, too.
Slapping on compatibility with Microsoft's successful but still somewhat superfluous advanced Kinect camera feels like an injustice at first, but the big surprise is that Kinect controller-free steering works better than with most Kinect games we've ever seen. Holding both hands up in a steering-wheel alignment works for large and subtle moves, although gas and brake controls seem to disappear.
Alternatively, a new wireless steering wheel offers a more compact variation on the gigantic steering wheel/gas pedal monstrosities often sold with racing games like these. Microsoft's wireless wheel has all the necessary controls, and it does make steering easier versus using the standard controller, simply because it's easier to prevent oversteering. You certainly don't need Microsoft's wheel or Kinect controls to use Forza 4, but their presence isn't distracting.
Another new layer to the presentation includes "Top Gear's" Jeremy Clarkson providing narration and car facts, and a Kinect-controlled virtual tour of a good handful of the car models. It's largely car-fetishist stuff, but the more that games like these can help educate, the better off all of us will be. Sports games need to continue heading in this direction (Madden, we're looking at you).
Forza 4's easily the best version of the game yet, which isn't too much of a surprise. What is a surprise is how much casual user and Kinect owner will also get a kick out of the game. Somehow, Microsoft had its cake and ate it, too.
Forza Motorsport 4 is available starting today exclusively for Xbox 360.

I greatly appreciate your excellent materials and your encouragement. Thanks, Keith!
Hi Terry, Yes! I want to be a good coach 🙂 This is my "go to" book for a start to finish framework for a coaching conversation. It is an easy read, very practical, helpful guide with examples of powerful questions throughout. So glad you summarized it! Blessings!
From what I have heard, you are an excellent coach! Thanks for stopping by to read the post – I'd love to meet some time and learn from you and your coaching skills!
It's amazing to me how easy it is to fall into "look what I'm doing for you" instead of "how is the Lord allowing me to come alongside you in this"? Thanks for these reminders–wonderful reminders of what I should be doing.
Thanks, friend! I, too, struggle with "pushing my agenda" rather than trusting in what God will do through the person I am coaching. So grateful for continue reminders, good training, and gracious coachees!
Thanks so much, Alice! I will be forever grateful that you were my coach for Lake Hart Stint!
To answer your question..yes I want to be a good coach! Great summary of Webb's book. Looking forward to the workshop!

Different Ways to Watch
By Gary Arlen 23 March 2014
Suddenly, everyone wants to be in some part of the TV business.
While we await whatever Apple TV becomes, we can look forward to the Ikea ""Uppleva" TV set, already on sale in Europe. Just as the buzz about an Intel-branded set-top box and accompanying online video service calms down, Samsung pops up with a plan to insert advertisements on its mobile devices - a probable prelude to a similar commercial role peddling apps on its "Smart TV" sets.
Beyond the obvious growth of over-the-top and online video, the television industries are morphing in ways that far exceed the high-tech glimpses we get at the CableNet pavilion or "Imagine Park" during this month's NCTA Cable Show. The multiple sectors of the TV industries that build receivers, package content and sell advertising are changing their very make-up as new competitors enter the business. The resulting revisions may not manifest themselves in the immediate future (the next 18 months), but some of the successful products and services will trickle into operation during the decade.
If form follows function, the look and feel of TV receivers are in play, and not just because of mobile/handheld video. "Leaked" (or merely purloined or imagined) versions of the long-rumored Apple TV receiver indicate a new form factor, with a wider and slightly curved screen; it may be optimized for video displays that are not merely images from sitcoms, cop dramas and talk shows.
Separately, Ikea, the furniture retailer, allegedly spent more than two years developing its all-in-one Uppleva smart TV that's blends an advanced video receiver and display into the furniture. For its first venture into electronics production, Ikea teamed with TCL, the huge Chinese electronics manufacturer, to create an integrated device; it reminds me of a streamlined version of grandma's 1950s vintage entertainment console with TV, music and other features all-in-one unit. Uppleva digital display furniture is expected to go on sale in America next year for under $1,000.
As for Samsung's foray into ad insertion, the company is working with OpenX Technologies, which is developing a system that lets advertisers place targeted messages on Samsung phones and tablets. The project will begin after July and, according to the Wall Street Journal, is the first strike in Samsung's attempt to bring targeted advertising to other electronic devices, including its Internet-connected TV sets.
Like other tech promises, these visions of tomorrow's "TV" are disruptive to a number of industries. They come at a time when the legacy structure of the TV industries is facing a shift. Maybe we'll hear more visions about what TV should look like during this week's this week's SMPTE Forum on Emerging Media Technologies in Geneva (May 13-15). The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, if anyone, should have a grasp on what tomorrow's TV will look like and what kinds of images it will display.
Broadcasters are already grappling with the challenge of next generation television. An engineering-oriented global consortium - the Future or Broadcast TV initiative - formalized its mission at a meeting during last month's NAB convention. Broadcast associations and authorities from North and South America, Europe, China and Japan will try to define a truly global terrestrial broadcast TV standard.
FOBTV's mission comes just as other entities are rethinking what TV should look like. In Japan, which has seen its once-dominant TV manufacturing sector diminish as Korean and Chinese TV makers ascend, the government is backing a domestic alliance that would allow major Japanese TV set producers to pool their engineering skills and research-and-development funds. The incarnation of this vision is Japan Display Inc., a joint venture between Sony, Toshiba and Hitachi. Just last month, the group, which was created in November, announced its initial plans to capture the largest share of the world's small- and mid-size flat-panel TV market within five years.
All of these attempts to re-imagine the video viewing device and the value chain behind it come as the content side of the business is in upheaval. NBCUniversal president andCEO Steve Burke offered a telling comment at a Creative Artists Associates retreat a few weeks ago. Burke told the assembled talent agents that the movie business is in "steady decline," according to The Wrap. He observed that profit margins for the movie business have gone from double digits, to single digits to nonexistent, the report said - suggesting that the long-promised overhaul of content production may be in plays.
As the mantra declares, content is king, or something along those lines. As new digital content emerges, and as the ecosystem through which it is delivered, displayed and funded evolves, the way we watch TV will change dramatically. We all know that and some of actually believe it. We'll only see a tiny glimpse of the near-term possibilities at the Cable Show in Boston.
But we better be ready for what happens - even if it's years away.

School Librarians Find Resources and Relief Through Online Network
May 15, 2020 May 17, 2020 - by Cayla Bamberger - Leave a Comment

Librarians can access NYCSLIST, an online network, through the Department of Education's website

Melissa Jacobs was the sole librarian at her public elementary school in Brooklyn in her first library job. That was two decades ago, before social media, and Jacobs craved a community with whom she could share practices and ideas.
"There were no communication tools to connect with librarians in other buildings, so I was the one and only," Jacobs said. "I felt very isolated."
When she stepped into her current job as the director of library services at the city's education department in 2004, Jacobs' first project was to design the virtual community that she had imagined: an electronic mailing list called The New York City School Librarian Information Sharing Tool, or "NYCSLIST." Seventeen years later, the listserv has roughly 1,200 members.
In mid-March, when COVID-19 shuttered schools, librarians faced a thoroughly new kind of isolation. To conquer it, the small but mighty army of librarians took to their listserv with such force—sharing free resources, linking to author readings, questioning copyright laws—that they surpassed its daily message threshold, crashing it.
In a recent newsletter circulated by the listserv, one librarian described the initial panic of the quarantine: "As an unabashed bibliognost, one of my first thoughts of remote learning was…..WHAT ARE THE KIDS GOING TO READ!?!?!!?"
The president of New York City School Librarians' Association, Arlene Laverde, said she shared in the anxiety: "On Sunday night, when the mayor announced that schools would be closing, our listserv exploded with, 'What can we do to support our students? What can we do to support our teachers?'" It got to the point where Laverde was scared to look at her email; she was so overwhelmed by all it would take to support public school families and teachers.
Jacobs increased the daily message allowance to 500 and the listserv quickly recovered from the crash, but the momentum of an extraordinarily active exchange persists. The online network has been more essential than ever for librarians—and through them, for their schools and students.
"We get announcements every day, several a day," said Doreen Wright, a librarian on the Richard R. Green campus in the Bronx. At the thought of schools without access to the listserv during remote learning, Wright said, "Oh, man." A beat later, she added: "I think that they are probably not as equipped with the resources that have been disseminated."
Jacobs noted that the network has helped her department be nimble in disseminating information. "If you're not on the listserv, you're not connected to the office, and the office is a lifeline for you," Jacobs said.
For example, when the New York City School Library System developed a guide to reimagine the role of school librarian during remote learning, it went out through the listserv. Or, when school librarians crafted articles about their experiences with online education for a department newsletter, it, too, was distributed via email. Most of all, though, the mailing list offers a steady stream of resources.
An unofficial listserv liaison, Wright has regular meetings with school leadership to share the tips and tools she finds online. "Principals are already so very busy with trying to figure out how to guide us," she said, "So they're missing out on the free resources."
This is where Wright steps in, armed with the network's suggestions. For example, Wright discovered a free book-publishing platform for children and teens to document their experiences during the pandemic. She posted a form to Google Classroom to recruit interested students, and she is gathering their stories into a collection that will eventually be published.
Wright also collaborates directly with classroom teachers, sitting in on virtual classes and providing students with relevant resources from the email chain. This teamwork is all the more meaningful in the age of COVID-19, as teachers adjust to remote education.
"Many vendors are making subscription-based databases available for free," said Debra Kachel, who researches school librarians, "but only librarians know which ones fit their school's curricula and the needs of their students." This, she described, as "the role of the librarian as a curator and 'chief information officer' of the school."
Also on the listserv: Scholastic is offering free online courses. Keep busy by watching Mei and Tian's Giant Panda Cam. Free digital curriculum from the New York Historical Society. Instructions for logging on to NOVELny. Drawing classes with Mo Willems.
The online network also has an archive, so librarians just joining during the pandemic can look through past emails to find older suggestions.
While conversations about resources are plentiful, Jacobs, in her continued role as the mailing list's moderator, is careful to keep vendors out. This makes the listserv a safe space not only for active school librarians, but for public librarians, graduate students who are prospective librarians, and even retired librarians who may have left their schools but not the community.
Christina Gavin, a school librarian in the Bronx, also sees the listserv as a kind of librarian's librarian; a place where she can turn if she needs help.
"If you have a question, you're not just sitting by yourself saying, 'What am I going to do?' You have a community of support through the listserv," Gavin said.

Meanwhile, the listserv has continued to serve its original purpose, which is all the more relevant now: to make librarians feel less isolated. There have been several "Librarian Chat and Chews" organized through the email chain each week, including recent sessions on fashioning homemade masks.
During the annual school librarian conference, typically held each fall in Citi Field, Jacobs has witnessed people who have only known each other as an email signature recognize each other's name badges and build real-life relationships. The connections nurtured via email and strengthened in person have softened the shock of remote learning.
"What's happened in the last few weeks, having that connection to everyone, helped us all get through it," Jacobs said.

I am unable to change the address for an event, no matter what I enter, it resets to my default address.
SO, I tried to delete the Default Address field, and it resets to the previous address.
For now: If you delete the Common Event address under Options->events, you won't have the issue you are describing.
- if you delete this default address on the event editor, then nothing is shown on your public event, otherwise the default will be used.
That's not quite how it is today, but that is how it will work in a future release.
I'm sorry I don't follow that last comment. Could you put it in more context so I understand if you are having a different issue?

IU Simon Cancer Center's summer program exposes students to possible cancer research careers
INDIANAPOLIS -- (Aug. 10, 2010) -- Seventeen students spent their summer vacations exploring possible careers as cancer researchers at the Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center.
For nine weeks (June 1-July 31), the students participated in the cancer center's Summer Research Program, gaining hands-on experiences by working with physicians and researchers. The program seeks to increase the number of cancer researchers among underrepresented groups.

Titeuf, és personatge de ficció de còmic que mostra la vida d'un nen amb tocs humorístics, va ser creat pel dibuixant suís Philippe Chappuis Zep el 1992. El seu succés va incitar a la creació d'una sèrie de dibuixos animats que es basa en el personatge; En aquesta sèrie té una edat d'entre vuit i deu anys, segons la temporada. En els diferents episodis va descobrint els misteris del món adult amb un punt de vista ingenu. També han aparegut diversos videojocs que emulen les seves aventures. La família, els professors i la colla d'amics són els secundaris que acompanyen Titeuf i que li fan viure experiències pròpies de la seva edat. Escrit en francès, el còmic ha esdevingut un best-seller i s'ha traduït en occità i diversos criolls.

Q: How to show a wait message OR loading image when a write operation is being performed using spapi_lists.js library.? I am using SPAPI_Lists.js and SPAPI_Core.js libraries to update/add records to share point 2007 lists.
i want to show a wait message OR loading image still the write or read operation is completed.
Please suggest me how this can be done.
here is the code
    var list = new SPAPI_Lists("ListURL");

         var newItem =  {
                    Title: "News",
                    Link: "LinkURL"
                };

   var items = list.quickAddListItem("List ID", newItem);

As the above code indicates, i want to show a wait message OR loading icon still the quickAddListItem is completed
Thanks in advance.

A: Mmhhhh ... Do you have any documentation about these libraries ? If quickAddListItem is not asynchronous, then you cannot do what you're trying to achieve.
Or you can try showing your loading image first, and then call setTimeout:
$('.my_loading_img').show();
// 500 means to wait 500ms before doing the adding... you can try a smaller number
setTimeout(function() {
    var list = new SPAPI_Lists("ListURL");
    var newItem =  {
              Title: "News",
              Link: "LinkURL"
          };
    var items = list.quickAddListItem("List ID", newItem);
}, 500);

Otherwise, I created a JS library that deals with Sharepoint webservices : http://aymkdn.github.io/SharepointPlus/
With my library and your example:
// show your loading image
$('.my_loading_img').show(); // jquery
// call SharepointPlus
$SP().list("ListName").add({Title:"News",Link:"LinkURL"},
  {
    error:function(items) {
      alert("Error when adding the item");
      $('.my_loading_img').hide(); // hide the image
    },
    success:function(items) {
      alert("Item added!");
      $('.my_loading_img').hide(); // hide the image
    }
  }
);
