HCA swears by Lodha : BYE-LAWS AMENDED
9 July 2018 12:00 AM GMT
The Rip Van Winkles running Hyderabad Cricket Association HCA came out of a selfimposed slumber approximately 21 months after adopting a oneline resolution to implement RM Lodha recommendations, to eventually adopt the reforms by amending its byelaws during its fourth Special General Body Meeting SGM at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium RGICS here on Sunday
Hyderabad: The Rip Van Winkles 'running' Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) came out of a self-imposed slumber approximately 21 months after adopting a one-line resolution to implement RM Lodha recommendations, to eventually adopt the reforms by amending its bye-laws during its fourth Special General Body Meeting (SGM) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium (RGICS) here on Sunday.
The major development that transpired during the meeting was the nod given to the long-standing demand for giving voting rights to former international players and by extension the right to contest the next elections, as and when they are held.
Ironically, the august members, driven to the wall, needed four SGMs to finally toe the Lodha line in what could be a turning point for the administrators provided they get their act together.
However, that remains a pipe-dream as things stand, particularly if one goes by the acrimonious manner the SGM began even before it took-off.
There is no denying that things could have worsened had it not been for the presence of the High Court appointed administrators, Justice (retd) Anil Dave and Justice (retd) GV Seethapathy and BCCI general manager Ratnakar Shetty.
Quite expectedly, the tempo was set in motion when aggrieved members, (who, apparently, came pre-determined) questioned the wisdom in sending two separate notices for the meeting. This, they alleged, had exposed the lack of coordination between the Apex Council members.
G Vivekanand, who had to abdicate the 'throne' under directions of the High Court, was among the targets for his failure to send copies of the minutes of the January SGM, which was a clear violation of the law.
A significant aspect was the subtle manner Shetty ducked constant requests by the members to intervene and provide solace to the members.
On his part, Shetty reiterated that he was only present there as an observer and that was precisely what he intended to. One would be keenly looking forward to his report, once they are made known.
The only point when there was a semblance of order was when it was time to take up the amendments.
Of course, it remains to be seen as to how the Lodha-armed members will go about their quest for power from hereafter given that there were no individual winners on this 'historic' day.

typically put these monitors near cribs; places where babies can easily reach them. And when they start going through that phase where they put things in their mouths, well, putting an electronic in one's mouth is a no-no.
Let's also not forget the long chord some of these monitors have. Try to keep those chords tucked away and out of reach.

Tomorrow I turn one year older! Adult birthdays are a mixed blessing; it's great to be able to pop a bottle of celebratory wine and get steadily sloshed over the course of the day, but part of me still misses the good old cake, jelly and ice-cream sugar-fests from my childhood. Fortunately, a number of my friends and family have quite a sweet tooth too and so a birthday cake is always on the cards.

Francis G. Winkler
Oct 9, 1940 - Jan 12, 2022
Francis G. Winkler - Obituary
rancis Glenn Winkler "Wink", "Glenn", 81, a 15 year resident of Edgewater, MD and previously of Ellicot City, MD, passed away at his home on Wednesday, January 12, 2022, after a brief illness. Glenn was born on October 9, 1940, in Baltimore, MD to the late Frederick and Louise Winkler. He was the owner of Winkler's Inc., a metal fabrication and welding company. His interests included fishing and boating. In addition to his parents, Glenn was preceded in death by his four siblings, Lawrence Winkler, Vale Robinson, Shirley Doyle, and Dorothy Bowers. He is survived by his loving wife, Lee Mueller, his brothers, Joseph Winkler of Taylorsville, Utah, Wayne Winkler of Woodbine, MD, and Jerry Winkler of North Carolina. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made in Glenn's memory to St. Jude's Hospital for Children, 501 St. Jude Place Memphis, TN 38105. Online condolences may be made by using the memory tab on this page. A celebration of life for Glenn will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made in Glenn's memory to St. Jude's Hospital for Children, 501 St. Jude Place Memphis, TN 38105. online here Online condolences may be made by using the memory tab on this page. Glenn From birth to death his life was marked by hurried pace, it's known, Now came this illness with its strength to call his name it's own. As a boy, Glenn's family poor, he struggled to survive, Then as a man, there was the drive, to build a business, make it thrive. A man with talents that abounded, often praise came not unfounded, He'd dreamed success and made it true in the company he founded. He loved his wife, his friends, his boat, on Chesapeake they'd fish and float. And on the dock he took great pleasure, spending time with friends; a treasure. Glenn was a man with a tender soul, making friends a lifetime goal. At drawing laughs he was a pro, a complex man, he was to know. So, like the stormy seas he faced and calming waves he rode, I think he'd bravely shrug it off and follow his own code. He'd dance a little turn and say, "I'm sorry friends but I can't stay".

As a new mother, you are experiencing one of the greatest joys of your life. You may experience some moments, though, when you wish you could have your pre-pregnancy body again. Now you can with a mommy makeover! Led by board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. David B. Brothers, Plastic Surgery Centre of Atlanta offers mommy makeover procedures for women in Atlanta, Sandy Springs Acworth, Roswell, Lilburn, and Dunwoody.
The gift of motherhood is one of the greatest and most satisfying experiences of a woman's life. You watch your children develop and express their charm, wit, and humor each day. Some days, though, the joy is set aside for a wish list of changes that you want to make to your body. Unfortunately, diet and exercise may not be enough to reverse the physical effects of pregnancy and childbirth. A mommy makeover by board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. David B. Brothers, may be just what you need!
We recommend that you tone and tighten your body as much as possible through diet and exercise before considering a mommy makeover. You should also wait until you have your last child because any future pregnancies can be detrimental to the results of the procedures.
What Do I Need to Do Before Having a Mommy Makeover?
In addition to recommending specific procedures, Dr. Brothers also outlines the schedule of your mommy makeover. Some surgeries may be performed simultaneously while others are performed over time. This approach minimizes your downtime and recovery.
What Should I Expect on the Day of My Mommy Makeover?
When the day of your mommy makeover arrives, our staff ensures that you feel confident and excited about your procedures. Dr. Brothers will review the surgical plan with you prior to entering the operating room. Our medical staff monitors your progress throughout the entire process.
How Long Does It Take to Perform a Mommy Makeover?
The surgical time for your mommy makeover depends on the specific procedures that you are having done during the appointment. Dr. Brothers provides these details during the consultation and before the surgery.
Recovery from a mommy makeover can take a few weeks or months depending on the procedures that you have done. The most important aspect of your aftercare is being patient with your body and having someone available to help you with your day-to-day activities while you rest at home.
Will I Have Scars After Getting a Mommy Makeover?
Whenever possible, the incisions for the mommy makeover procedures are placed so that the scars are less noticeable or hidden by your clothing. Scars can take up to one year to fade, but the scars do not completely disappear. Dr. Brothers reviews incision placement and the resulting scars during your consultation appointment.
You will see some immediate results, but the full results of your mommy makeover can take a few months or longer.
How Long Will the Results of a Mommy Makeover Last?
The results of your mommy makeover are long lasting. Weight changes and the aging process will affect your body, but with proper diet and exercise, you can enjoy the improvements for many years.
A mommy makeover is a combination of procedures that is tailored to your personal needs. Dr. Brothers will recommend the surgeries and MedSpa treatments that are right for you.
How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost in Atlanta?
The surgeries and treatments performed as part of your mommy makeover are not covered by insurance. After your consultation, we will provide a detailed cost that includes the applicable fees for Dr. Brothers and his surgical staff as well as any necessary medical supplies and your follow-up care. Financing is available through CareCredit® and Alphaeon™ Credit, and we also accept cash, checks, and most major credit cards.
As a mother, you deserve to feel as beautiful on the outside as you do on the inside. A mommy makeover gives you back a pre-pregnancy body that makes you feel confident and attractive. At Plastic Surgery Centre of Atlanta, we use the most advanced techniques for cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. Board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. David B. Brothers, and his team offer mommy makeover procedures, emphasizing improved self-image and confidence of women in Atlanta, Sandy Springs, Acworth, Roswell, Lilburn, and Dunwoody. Contact us today to schedule your personal consultation!

From Fighting Against Casteism To Ensuring Education For All, These 15-Yr-Old Girls Are Agents Of Change In Rajasthan
10 Dec 2019 1:06 PM GMT
Aarti Kanwar, a 15-year-old girl from Raipura village, is no different than the children of her age. She studies in class 11 at a local government school, spends her free time studying, playing with her friends, and helping her mother around the house.
But for residents of Raipura village, in Alwar, Rajasthan, Arti is much more than just a young girl. Raipura is a Bal Mitra Gram (BMG), a project designed and implemented by Kailash Satyarthi Children's Foundation (KSCF), founded by Nobel Laureate Kailash Satyarthi.
BMGs aim is to create a child-friendly environment in the villages where children are free from the trap of child marriage, child labour, trafficking and other crimes, and ensure that children have a say in the decision-making the process.
The BMG model was implemented in Raipura in 2015, and Arti was the first Sarpanch (head) of the Bal Panchayat (Child Panchayat) of the village when she was in class seven.
In less than five years, she managed not only to ensure that every child in her village is enrolled in school and protected from child marriage but also managed to uproot the age-old social evil of casteism, deeply embedded in the society.
On coming in contact with the workers of BMG, she learnt about the rights of children and the negative impact of social evils in the society.
The first step towards success for Aarti was ensuring that the children of Banjara community living in her village were enrolled in the school. The children of this nomadic community usually worked as child labourers or reared cattle during the day before they were enrolled in schools.
"When I, along with other members of Bal Panchayat, went to convince the people of Banjara Community, they shouted at me and forced to leave. However, we did not give up and continued to pursue the children and parents. Finally, we were able to get these children enrolled in the local government school, Rajkiyakrit Uchcha Prathmik Vidyalaya, Raipura," Arti said.
After making her village free of child labour and child marriage, Arti next challenge was to fight against casteism. Coming from the general category (Rajput) herself, Arti had to face resistance both in the society and her own house when she started to raise her voice against casteism.
"I started with my school. Earlier children of different caste used to sit in different groups and have lunch. We started by bringing them all together. The next step was to bring together all the communities of the village during festivals and eat together. Initially, my friends and I was scolded by my family, but later they understood what we were doing and supported us. Today, there is no casteism in the village," she said.
Khushboo Sharma, another 15-year-old, of a neighbouring village Gopalpura has also proved to be a change-maker in her BMG.
In 2015, she became the secretary of Bal Panchayat and managed to 42 children, from Banjara and other communities, admitted to school. Today, she is proud to say that no child in her village is out of school.
"Today not a single child is working as a labourer and no underage child is being married off in my village. I, along with my friends also raised the demand to solve the water crisis in the school and managed to get a hand pump installed. Also, we raised a demand to the Sarpanch of the village to provide toys at the school," she said.
Today, Khusbhoo studies in class 11 at a nearby private school where she is spreading awareness against child labour and child marriage as well. "My friends in the school go back to their respective villages and raise voices too. Lack of medical facilities is a major problem in rural areas. I want to become a doctor and help the villagers get free medical facilities," she said.
While Khushboo wishes to pursue medicine, Arti wants to become a pilot, but if not, she would prefer to be a teacher.
"I want to ensure education for all, provide all facilities like uniform and books to the children and help them grow into better individuals," Arti said.
(On December 10, 2014, Nobel Peace Prize was conferred to Mr. Kailash Satyarthi. The article has been written commemorating five years of Nobel Peace Prize)

We go on with the Olympic track! After the Olympic Museum in Lausanne and the Olympic Village of Rio de Janeiro, we have become part of another sporting event – the 2018 World Cup, which takes place from 14 June to 15 July 2018 in Russia. For the largest sports stadium in Luzhniki, we manufactured and delivered 15 Portiqoa circular benches, 300 Portiqoa arched benches and 600 portable Portiqoa benches in standard design. The Portiqoa bench is specific with its softly molded aluminum alloy side legs, which work with an interesting optical effect of diagonally built walls. The seat and the backrest are made of massive wood slabs. Other benches and trash cans will find their use in the vicinity of the brand new and hypermodern Krestovsky Stadium in St. Petersburg, which can accomodate up to eighty thousand spectators and is known as the Pearl of the World Championship.
The implementation of the entire project began in 2016 and the architects who were managing the reconstruction of the stadium and adjacent areas had a concept of what the furniture would look like at that time. Their idea was rather conservative, so we, with their consent, changed it. We have proposed the adjustment of our portiqoa bench, which we have already used at the Olympics in Rio. For Moscow, we have designed a solution that allows to build long, uninterrupted lines, both straight or arched. The result shows that they have really fitted into this important place, adds co-owner and principal designer David Karasek.

Q: Verticies Error Using pgr_pointsaspolygon I am doing the service areas analysis of hospitals.
With the creation of areas I bumped into a problem with the pgr_pointsaspolygon function.
it returns the error:
ERROR:  Less than 3 vertices. Alpha shape calculation needs at least 3 vertices.

CONTEXT:  PL/pgSQL function pgr_pointsaspolygon(character varying,double precision)
line 17 at FOR over EXECUTE statement

11 service areas of 60x60 (1hr) only contain 2 vertices, this is cause for the whole function not to work.
How can I solve this? Can the function be edited? are there alternatives?

A: If the input of the pgr_pointsaspolygon function receives less than three vertices, it's not possible to create a polygon.
If you run the request for multiple areas (11?), you need to first filter out those, that do not have enough vertices for a valid polygon.
The pgr_pointsaspolygon function doesn't do more than that, so it's not clear to me, what you mean with "cause for the the whole function not to work".

Want a whiteboard video like this? Get in touch now!
Why is a video important for your website?
If a picture is 1000 words then according to Forrester Research goes one step further by adding that a one-minute video is worth 1.8 million words. Considering that 46 percent of people who watch a video ad on a business website take action after viewing it, it makes sense to include video to your website and watch your rankings rise.
Bounce is a factor in how Google rates how useful your site is for said keyword. Say somebody types in 'website video production' into Google, they come but find my site not relevant so they leave immediately, Google will then deem my site poor for this keyword. If on the other they stay a while watching my video and have a look around then Google rewards me for having content that is relevant to this keyword. This is one of the many factors that rank your website, check out my article on SEO for more information.
The Stats don't lie! The video is a huge part of content marketing and it grows every day.
Surprising isn't it but because only 50% of businesses currently use video in their marketing. You still have the opportunity to stand out from the competition by making use of this powerful tool. Use it to introduce your brand to newcomers, answer your website, understand your products not to mention create a favourable and lasting impression. Go over to your competitions websites now, do they have a video?
Sometimes your product requires a slightly more detailed explanation, and a demo video or explainer can be easier to understand than text and pictures. Have a look at YouTube and you can see how many videos are reviews and demonstrations of products.
Yes! Showcasing your business, service or product is a great way of getting your customers to like you more, increase social proof, get for sharing online and involve them in your Brand personality.
A video doesn't have to be a chore, you can make it about your business or a particular service, or maybe you are always being asked a question.

Big Food companies were built for large worlds but now forced to operate by small-world rules. Each customer has a different service criterion to suit their financial needs and operational structures. Meanwhile, downward price pressure from hard discounters and private label are throttling industry margins. Let's talk about what it all means.
Chief executives know that innovation is central to their organizations' growth objectives, yet old and inefficient practices remain in the absence of better alternatives. Re-setting the approach and thinking around innovation reduces costs, risk, and failures, with methodologies that elevate it to a Profession inside the organization.
The most important thing on the CEO's agenda, shareholders are waking up to strategy as more than statements of activity. Growth reported in fractions or in pockets of categories or brands will not enable winning. Strategy is about placing bets and making difficult choices around doing three important things consistently better than anyone else. What are they?
Despite seismic shifts in the operating environment, food company Business Models remain unchanged. Defined as the logic for how a company generates value for consumers, customers and itself, business models are expiring faster than ever. Here's the gold standard approach used by thousands of companies to position your organization for the future of the food industry.
Disruption and acceleration are driven by how consumers live, work and play, making many long-standing industry practices obsolete. Implications of unexpected and unstoppable new forces will not wait for organizations to catch up. This session will equip executives with knowledge of what's ahead to enable better navigation and control over their organization's future.

No Hirst Fix for Skagit. Here's why.
Thanks to a Skagit Valley Herald on Sunday, January 28, the community now understands something about what could be called the "water wars." The "Hirst Fix" bill recently passed the legislature and restored the opportunity for property owners, including small farmers, to drill wells. Except in Skagit.
"Consent vs. consult" refers to the demand of the tribes that they not only be consulted on who gets water and who doesn't but have consent. In other words, veto power. The Democratic leaders, apparently concerned about losing the very generous campaign contributions from the tribes, allowed this demand to prevent passage of a reasonable bill and hold up the capital budget.
Legislators, both Democrats and Republicans, are saying tribes in the county, specifically the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community, lobbied Democrats on the bill's negotiating committee to have Skagit County removed from the legislation.
Let's take a step back. This whole hubbub that has consumed our government for two sessions now, and threatens to seriously deteriorate relations between tribal members and their fellow citizens is about a myth. A false assumption. Is there enough water? Is there water for fish, for farming, for growing communities? In some parts of our state, the drier parts, securing adequate water can be a significant issue that has been worked on for years. But for western Washington, particularly the farming areas of Whatcom and Skagit county, we have more than enough water. The "instream flow" rules established by Ecology in the 1980s were not set by any known science or standard.
Farmers take water for irrigation. In the past most or all of that was taken from streams and rivers. In Whatcom, if all the water for irrigation was taken from the Nooksack river it would equate to about 1% of the total annual flow. In Skagit County, many problems involving water originate from the 2001 in-stream flow rule to leave rural property owners and farmers through the irrigation districts out of the water allocations.
Farmers for years have been working to transfer their legal water rights from the streams to groundwater or wells. Courts and environmental policies have stopped some of this. Ironically, the Foster Supreme Court decision which said in effect any water taken from the ground is the same as taking water from the stream. That stopped efforts in Whatcom of farmers to restore stream flows by more surface rights conversions to groundwater rights, and even stopped for several years the effort of farmers to put groundwater into the Bertrand creek at times of lowest flow to help fish. Fortunately, Ecology officials allowed this work to go on in 2017 and the results were documented by Capital Press.
As to the claim that the lack of water or habitat is the cause of fish decline, this is not supported by the facts either. Farmers are the real leaders in water conservation, in habitat restoration, and stream restoration. The multiple millions (likely into the billions) spent on habitat has not restored fish. Why? The Seattle Times gives a pretty strong hint in this November 20, 2017 article. It points to recent research that shows chinook salmon are being produced at a rate almost twice that of 1975 – from 225 million to 406 million chinook. Where are they going?
The public may be shocked to learn that the science report shows that marine mammals protected by the 1972 Marine Mammal Protection Act are primarily responsible for the fact that human harvest of salmon has declined even while almost twice as many salmon are produced than in 1975.
Killer whale numbers on the West Coast more than doubled from 292 in 1975 to 644 individuals. Those whales increased their consumption of chinook salmon from 5400 metric tons to almost 11,000 metric tons in that time period. From the 1.3 adult salmon consumed in 1975, the killer whale consumption increased to 2.6 million adults in 2015.
However, given that over 400 million salmon were produced in 2015, the 5.2 million adults consumed by humans and predators still leaves a lot of fish. Where did they go? Mostly to other predators including harbor seals, California sea lions and Steller sea lions. From a Puget Sound standpoint, the Salish Sea (formerly Northern Puget Sound) sees by far the biggest loss from these predators, particularly harbor seals. Harbor seal predation increased nearly ten times in that 40 years, from 3.5 million to 27.4 million chinook. But by far hardest hit was the Salish Sea area where harbor seals consumed 23.2 million chinook in this small area alone. In other words, 85% of the chinook eaten by harbor seals are Salish Sea stock. In this area alone, harbor seal population grew from 8600 animals to 77,800!
This very important study makes it clear that the Salish Sea is by far the hardest hit from harbor seals. Killer whale numbers have more than doubled from Alaska to northern California since 1975. Our Salish Sea pods are struggling. One reason apparent from the study is that our local whales have no appetite for harbor seals, unlike those in Canada, Alaska and everywhere else. That has allowed the Salish Sea population of harbor seals to skyrocket. These animals have a great appetite for smolts, which is one very clear reason why we don't have the fish runs all the efforts at restoration should have supported.
The point is, despite what we hear repeated by some tribal officials and the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission, a lack of water and habitat issues in Western Washington are not the driving concerns in the decline of fish. Anti-growth activists, anti-farm activists and some tribal leaders are certainly aware of these facts (if not, they need to open their minds to some science on this). All this shows that the Hirst hub-bub is not about a water crisis, or even a fish crisis – it is the use of water as a tool for gaining political power to pursue specific agendas.
Citizens of Skagit County are understandably upset. The use of water as a tool to control development has caused significant harm to the County but even greater harm to property owners. This even impacts small farmers as purchasing parcels for small farm-to-market farms is also affected. Questions need to raised about how our elected representatives voted on this. We know that some representing Skagit voted against the Hirst Fix because it did not include Skagit. Some may have voted against it because it didn't go far enough in preventing rural development. Some may have voted for it only because the Swinomish leaders were able to exempt Skagit from the fix. It's very important for Skagit citizens to know how they voted and their reasons.
There is a great and growing concern we have. As we watch the community's response to issues such as the effort of the Swinomish to expand their tribal jurisdiction beyond reservation boundaries, and now lobbying hard against access to abundant water, we are concerned about a growing anti-tribe sentiment. It is not healthy in our community and it is not something Skagit Family Farmers wants to contribute to in any way. But, the kind of aggressive legal and political action taken by Swinomish tribal leaders against their fellow citizens will likely lead to a political backlash that could prove very harmful to their long term interests, including funding sources. As it becomes more apparent there are elected representatives who support a group of 500 citizens instead of all citizens, the tribal leadership will find it harder to secure political support. A community and voter backlash is not something we want to see, but we would find it understandable if there is not more effort to work with the community and its interests instead of continuing to take action such as the Skagit exemption so harmful to our community and its citizens.

Your every significant choice -- every important decision you make -- is determined by a force operating deep inside your mind: your perspective on time -- your internal, personal time zone. This is the most influential force in your life, yet you are virtually unaware of it. Once you become aware of your personal time zone, you can begin to see and manage your life in exciting new ways. In The Time Paradox, Drs. Zimbardo and Boyd draw on thirty years of pioneering research to reveal, for the first time, how your individual time perspective shapes your life and is shaped by the world around you. Further, they demonstrate that your and every other individual's time zones interact to create national cultures, economics, and personal destinies. You will discover what time zone you live in through Drs. Zimbardo and Boyd's revolutionary tests. Ask yourself: * Does the smell of fresh-baked cookies bring you back to your childhood? * Do you believe that nothing will ever change in your world? * Do you believe that the present encompasses all and the future and past are mere abstractions? * Do you wear a watch, balance your checkbook, and make to-do lists -- every day? * Do you believe that life on earth is merely preparation for life after death? * Do you ruminate over failed relationships? * Are you the life of every party -- always late, always laughing, and always broke? These statements are representative of the seven most common ways people relate to time, each of which, in its extreme, creates benefits and pitfalls. The Time Paradox is a practical plan for optimizing your blend of time perspectives so you get the utmost out of every minute in your personal and professional life as well as a fascinating commentary about the power and paradoxes of time in the modern world. No matter your time perspective, you experience these paradoxes. Only by understanding this new psychological science of time zones will you be able to overcome the mental biases that keep you too attached to the past, too focused on immediate gratification, or unhealthily obsessed with future goals. Time passes no matter what you do -- it's up to you to spend it wisely and enjoy it well. Here's how.
Out of time : making your time matter.
Reveals how your individual time perspective shapes your life and is shaped by the world around you, interacting to create national cultures, economics, and personal destinies.

Everyday as a youth worker is an adventure but it us easy to forget the profound things that we learn in the midst of all the business. My hope is that in the short spaces between adventures I can send out an blurb from my blackberry. This is my first attempt.
Today I had plans to go around the highschool on the last day of classes in order to say goodbye to kids for the summer. Plans changed when I got a call from a girl saying that her friend needed a ride home from school. She wasn't well and I was glad that Derian and I could give her a ride. I missed the school but I help someone in need. It was worth the sacrifice. ..

Microsoft and Agder Energi collaborate to build an intelligent grid powered by an intelligent cloud
KRISTIANSAND, Norway, and REDMOND, Wash. — Oct. 6, 2016 — Thursday at Nordic Edge Expo, Agder Energi, Microsoft Corp. and Powel AS announced a pilot project that will help create a more efficient, flexible and intelligent grid of the future.
The project will leverage intelligent technology to create a cutting-edge smart grid solution that will prepare the grid for greater renewable integration and help keep pace with growing energy consumption. The Microsoft Azure intelligent cloud, PowerBI and Azure IoT Hub were combined with expertise from Powel to provide Agder Energi with tools to improve dispatch of new energy resources, including device controls and predictive forecasting for situational awareness.
"At Agder Energi we want to use new technology to make the power grid more efficient, more predictable and more flexible. We will go from being energy generators to energy partners, with a more active role for our customers," said Agder Energi's CEO Tom Nysted. "Together with our partners at Microsoft and Powel, we will use innovation to solve the challenges facing the grid."
While energy technologies have made tremendous advances in the past decade, electrical grids around the world have not. Power grids already require massive investments to keep pace with growing energy consumption; they are now challenged to leverage new resources — distributed energy systems like rooftop solar panels, batteries, smart homes and facilities — that can help provide support back to the grid in times of high demand.
The pilot will demonstrate how utilities can implement intelligent cloud-based smart grid solutions to unlock a host of energy and sustainability benefits. This solution will enable energy savings and easier integration of renewable energy to the grid mix, while also saving consumers money by reducing expensive peak power use and capital investment.
"We are applying our strong domain expertise and acting as the integration and forecasting partner in this project to seamlessly integrate Agder's SCADA to the Azure IoT Hub, provide demand forecasts, and production forecasts for wind and solar in the region," said Powel's CEO Bård Benum. "We are thrilled to be working closely together with Agder Energi and Microsoft to help enable radical innovation in the utility sector."
The pilot will be operated at an Agder Energi substation that is currently operating at 120 percent of its capacity a number of times throughout the year. The technology will enable operators to better predict demand and engage distributed resources, thereby reducing the demand on the substation and saving money that would otherwise be needed to upgrade. Eventually, the partners expect to build on these results to perform automatic balancing of renewable energy and peak load control in near real time.
"Renewable energy resources and advancements in intelligent cloud technology are driving a digital transformation of grid operations to explore new business models," said Kevin Dallas, Microsoft Corporate Vice President, IoT Business Development. "Enabling solutions like Agder's will accelerate widespread renewable and distributed power generation. It's a bright future for the utility industry and for a sustainable world."
Relevance to Norway
While the project focuses on a single substation that faces loading challenges, this is not a unique problem. Indeed, this is a problem experienced across the Norwegian market. Widespread adoption of grid management software that effectively manages new energy sources as a network of IoT resources has the potential to ameliorate costs of new hardware infrastructure for the Norwegian grid. The partners aim to demonstrate a digital transformation that will allow others in the industry to look to Norway as a leading example on energy and IoT.
About Agder Energi
The vision of Agder Energi is to be one of the leading companies in the Norwegian renewable energy sector. Agder Energi generates 7.9 TWh in an average year, and is Norway's third largest producer of electricity. The grid operating company Agder Energi Nett has 20,900 kilometres of transmission and distribution lines that supply electricity to a total of 190,000 customers in southern Norway.
About Powel
Powel AS, headquartered in Trondheim, Norway, delivers business-critical software solutions and related services specifically designed to help energy companies and public utilities improve daily operational processes and service quality. The company is a market leader in software solutions for grid operations and maintenance, energy production and smart metering, with offices in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Poland, Turkey, Switzerland and Chile. Founded in 1996, Powel AS is a privately held company with more than 420 employees. www.powel.com

Myth Buster
Selling By Auction
Unsold Lots
Stuart Collar-Brown BSc (Hons) MNAVA
Stuart began his journey in property at the tender age of 22 with a well-established estate agency in Bath where he quickly realised that he had a talent for seeing beyond what condition a house was currently in and could walk buyers through the unlocked potential it had with various alterations and improvements. This led him to focusing a lot of his attention on conversion and development projects in and around Bath as well as building up a vast amount of knowledge in the buy-to-let market.
Following the crash of 2007/08, he was approached to join an auction house and has been involved in this weird and wonderful world ever since, helping to sell 1,000s of lots across the UK raising in excess of £300M for his clients.
Stuart has been fortunate enough to work for and with some of the best auctioneers in the country (the 2 stand-outs for him would be the late great Geoff Taylor at Strakers and the enigma that is, Andrew Binstock of Auction House London) and throughout this past decade he has absorbed as much information as possible from the various different auction houses he has worked with and has tried to incorporate all of their best aspects into his own approach resulting in him being crowned the NAVA Novice Auctioneer of the Year in 2014 followed by the Runner-Up spot for the NFoPP Technical Award in Real Property Auctioneering in 2015.
Having worked in both live ballroom auctions and for an online auction provider, Stuart's goal with My Auction is to create a fair and flexible auction platform with both buyers and sellers in mind. He wants to provide sellers with more flexibility on when they can offer their property at auction without losing the certainty and speed an auction sale brings with it, and from a buyers point of view, he wants them to be able to buy through our online portal for a much fairer price than what is currently on offer in the market.
On a personal note, Stuart is married to Victoria who he actually met in an auction room in Bristol (he says he paid too much but not to Victoria's face!) and who runs an extremely successful property consultancy business and together they have an amazing little girl called Parker who has just started "big school".
Bishop's Stortford in Hertfordshire is home, he loves 90s hip-hop, Michelin starred restaurants and crisp sandwiches!
Todd Harrison-Moore
Todd started his career in property as a teenager with one of the largest private landlords in the UK. He quickly rose through the ranks to become Acquisitions Director where he acquired over 200 individual properties.
He made the bold decision to launch Castelnau in January 2016, a property investment company where he and his team specialise in the niche asset class of UK ground rents as well as residential property investment. To date, they been responsible for over 300 transactions totalling more than £60m – a significant number of which were bought and sold at auction.
It's this experience of being both a buyer and seller at auction that initiated the first conversation about setting up an auction company with Stuart, by combining their many years of experience across both live and online auctions. Todd could see that various changes to the online auction marketwould optimise both the buyers' and sellers' experience of auction and this is something that he has implemented into My Auction.
Outside of work, Todd is an avid Chelsea fan.

Autopsy of a Father by Pascale Kramer
208 pages – Bellevue Literary Press
"When a young woman returns to her childhood home after her estranged father's death, she begins to piece together the final years of his life. What changed him from a prominent left-wing journalist to a bitter racist who defended the murder of a defenseless African immigrant? Pascale Kramer, recipient of the 2017 Swiss Grand Prize for Literature, exposes a country gripped by intolerance and violence to unearth the source of a family's fall from grace. Set in Paris and its suburbs, and inspired by the real-life scandal of a French author and intellectual, Autopsy of a Father blends sharp observations about familial dynamics with resonant political and philosophical questions, taking a scalpel to the racism and anti-immigrant sentiment spreading just beneath the skin of modern society." -from the Bellevue Literary Press website
The Fevers of Reason by Gerald Weissmann
"In this diverting collection of essays, Gerald Weissmann looks back at the past few decades of his long career working at the intersection of the arts and sciences. The Fevers of Reason features some of his best and most representative works, alongside eleven new essays that have never before been published in book form. Masterfully drawing from an array of subject areas and time periods, he tackles everything from Ebola to Eisenhower, Zika to Zola, Darwin to Dawkins, and once again shows that he is one of the most important voices in humanistic science writing today." -from the Bellevue Literary Press website
Black Lawrence Press
The Good Girl is Always a Ghost by Anne Champion
"The poems of Anne Champion's collection The Good Girl is Always a Ghost start loud and strong with Qiu Jin speaking about her bound feet turning 'to concrete / and every step bashes the earth to wreckage, the cracked terrain / wrinkles into canyons and craters, hidden paths for my sisters to follow.' And we do follow through eras and ages, through politics and poetics, through the killing and the healing. Persona poems give voice to forgotten women, to complicated women, and when the speaker arrives in other poems, we see how the 'I' herself is complicated by her relationship to these women. In 'Dear Marilyn Monroe:' 'People tell me I'm beautiful too…I watched them watch you, Marilyn, and I'm afraid.' While the women of this book are ghosts, the poems themselves are what will continue to haunt." —Jennifer Jackson Berry, author of The Feeder
Invitation to a Bonfire by Adrienne Celt
256 pages – Bloomsbury Publishing
"In the 1920s, Zoya Andropova, a young refugee from the Soviet Union, finds herself in the alien landscape of an elite all-girls New Jersey boarding school. Having lost her family, her home, and her sense of purpose, Zoya struggles to belong, a task made more difficult by the malice her peers heap on scholarship students and her new country's paranoia about Russian spies. When she meets the visiting writer and fellow Russian émigré Leo Orlov–whose books Zoya has privately obsessed over for years–her luck seems to have taken a turn for the better. But she soon discovers that Leo is not the solution to her loneliness: he's committed to his art and bound by the sinister orchestrations of his brilliant wife, Vera. As the reader unravels the mystery of Zoya, Lev, and Vera's fate, Zoya is faced with mounting pressure to figure out who she is and what kind of life she wants to build. Grappling with class distinctions, national allegiance, and ethical fidelity–not to mention the powerful magnetism of sex–Invitation to a Bonfire investigates how one's identity is formed, irrevocably, through a series of momentary decisions, including how to survive, who to love, and whether to pay the complicated price of happiness." – from the Bloomsbury website
Comemadre by Roque Larraquy (trans. Heather Cleary)
152 pages – Coffee House Press
"On the outskirts of Buenos Aires in 1907, Doctor Quintana pines for head nurse Menéndez while he and his colleagues embark on a grisly series of experiments to investigate the line between life and death. One hundred years later, a celebrated artist goes to extremes in search of aesthetic transformation, turning himself into an art object. How far are we willing to go, Larraquy asks, in pursuit of transcendence? The world of Comemadre is full of vulgarity, excess, and farce: strange ants that form almost perfect circles, missing body parts, obsessive love affairs, and flesh-eating plants. Here the monstrous is not alien, but the consequence of our relentless pursuit of collective and personal progress." – from the Coffee House Press website
Idiophone by Amy Fusselman
"Leaping from ballet to quiltmaking, from the The Nutcracker to an Annie-B Parson interview, Idiophone is a strikingly original meditation on risk-taking and provocation in art and a unabashedly honest, funny, and intimate consideration of art-making in the context of motherhood, and motherhood in the context of addiction. Amy Fusselman's compact, beautifully digressive essay feels both surprising and effortless, fueled by broad-ranging curiosity, and, fundamentally, joy." -from the Coffee House Press website
CR Press
Lessons in Camouflage by Martin Ott
55 pages – CR Press
"Martin Ott's first two poetry collections won the De Novo and Sandeen Prizes. In his third collection LESSONS IN CAMOUFLAGE, he continues to explore the theme of casting a light on hidden truths. The book spans his turmoil as a U.S. Army interrogator to conflicts personal in nature: divorce, death, and determination to uncover the mysteries of what makes life worth living." -from the CR Press website
Drunk Punch Press
Gathering View by Jack C. Buck
102 pages – Lulu
"In three interwoven chapbooks in one collection, Buck takes us on a walking meditation through football, winter and love, among other thoughts that will linger with the reader long after they set this book down." – from the Drunk Punch Press website
Dzanc Books
The Lost Country by William Gay
368 pages – Dzanc Books
"Billy Edgewater is a harbinger of doom. Estranged from his family, discharged from the Navy, and touched by a rising desperation, he sets out hitchhiking home to East Tennessee, where his father is slowly dying. On the road, separately, are Sudy and Bradshaw, brother and sister, and a one-armed con man named Roosterfish. All, in one way or another, have their pasts and futures embroiled with D.L. Harkness, a predator in all the ways there are. Hounded at every turn by scams, vigilantes, grievous loss, and unspeakable violence, Edgewater navigates the long road home, searching for a place that may be nothing but memory. Hailed as 'a seemingly effortless storyteller' by the New York Times Book Review and 'a writer of striking talent' by the Chicago Tribune, William Gay, with this long-awaited novel, secures his place alongside Faulkner, O'Connor, and McCarthy as one of the greatest novelists in the Southern Gothic tradition." -from the Dzanc Books website
The Mutual UFO Network by Lee Martin
"In The Mutual UFO Network, Pulitzer Prize finalist and master of the craft Lee Martin presents his first short story collection since his acclaimed debut The Least You Need to Know. With Martin's signature insight, each story peers into the nooks and crannies of seemingly normal homes, communities, and families. The footprints of a midnight prowler peel back the veneer of a marriage soured by a long-ago affair. A con man selling faked UFO footage loses his wife to the promise of life outside the ordinary. And a troubled man, tormented by his own mind, lies in the street to look at the stars, and in doing so unravels the carefully constructed boundaries between his quiet neighbors. From friendship and family to all forms of love, The Mutual UFO Network explores the intricacies of relationships and the possibility for redemption in even the most complex misfits and loners." -from the Dzanc Books website
Uncommon Miracles by Julie C. Day
239 pages – PS Publishing
"A grieving man travels through time via car crash. A family of matriarchs collects recipes for the dead. A woman gains an unexpected child in the midst of a bunny apocalypse. An outcast finds work in a magical slaughterhouse. Julie C. Day's debut collection is rife with dark and twisted tales made beautiful by her gorgeous prose and wonderfully idiosyncratic imagination. Melding aspects of Southern Gothic and fabulism, and utilizing the author's own scientific background, Day's carefully rendered settings are both delightful and unexpected. Whether set in a uniquely altered version of Florida's Space Coast or a haunted island off the coast of Maine, each story in this collection carries its own brand of meticulous and captivating weirdness. Yet in the end, it is the desperation of the characters that drives these stories forward and their wild obsessions that carry them through to the end. It is Day's clear-eyed compassion for the dark recesses of the human heart and her dream-like vision of the physical world that make this collection a standout." -from the PS Publishing website
Quale Press
What it Takes by Joseph Torra
118 pages – Small Press Distribution
"An elderly man retires and watches his wife slowly die from cancer. What It Takeschronicles his grief. Sometimes he tries his best to surmount his grief; sometimes he wearies and coaxes his own end along. He tries to fathom who his grown children have become, especially his son, Freddy, who in turn is attempting to salvage his own life. The old man also travels down his memories growing up with his brothers — one of whom met an untimely end, another layer of grief — and his parents. He tries to navigate the will to live, the desire to be close to others and at the same time wrap himself into a spiral of withdrawal. Torra takes us on a journey in this man's mind as he grapples with finding out — maybe too late, or possibly too soon — what it takes to not just survive, but to live." -from the Quale Press website
River Boat Books
The Flamethrowers (Translated by Larry Riley) by Roberto Arlt
324 pages – River Boat Books
"Roberto Arlt is one of our greatest visionaries . . . writing for him is cauterization, acid that etches, a magic lantern projecting, one after another, glass slides depicting a cruel city and its men and women condemned to live permanently on the prowl, like dogs, . . . . that is art, like the art of a canyengue Goya (Arlt would have punched me in the face if he read this), of a street-fighting Francois Villon, of a Kit Marlowe wielding his knife in taverns. . . art that puts us face to face with ourselves, as only great art can." -Julio Cortazar (translated by Katherine Silver)
Skulls of Istria by Rick Harsch
"Rick Harsch's tavern confession novel, Skulls of Istria, is more seamless than Camus' The Fall and every bit as erudite as Antunes' South of Nowhere. The narrator is as cognizant of the tragic tectonics of political life as those in Harsch's other books and as feckless in his attempts to navigate the proscribed resultant quotidian. Though the plot is an attenuated thriller, the real thrill of the book is an exquisitely horrific encounter with literal skulls I found either surreal or hyper-real or both. This is a book that tears the skin off the skulls of modern man and butts them against the skulls of history." -Trent Stewart, Author of Flood Summer and The Mysterious Benedict Society
Stalking Horse Press
Tetra: A Graphic Novel (1977-1979) by Malcolm Mc Neill
136 pages – Stalking Horse Press
"This is the first time that the prototypical graphic novel—written and illustrated in a wild period for New York's Gallery magazine between 1977-79—has been collected, and presented in full color with a new introduction and afterword by its creator. These essays contextualize the unique experimentalism of Tetra in theme, style, and production. Originally suggested as a Star Wars pastiche complete with space opera trappings and messianic tendencies, Mc Neill always had a different idea. Tetra is a visionary, surreal visual narrative, presaging a number of later science fiction tropes, and emerged from the context of Mc Neill's suppressed collaboration with William S. Burroughs, Ah Pook Is Here. It coincides with the emergence of Heavy Metal magazine, and the exploitation of the science fiction boom. The unusual pretext and the challenges of creating and selling such an irreverant strip are detailed inside, along with archival production sketches, costumes, and concept art. " -from the Stalking Horse Press website
The Possessive Investment in Whiteness: How White People Profit from Identity Politics (Twentieth Anniversary Edition) by George Lipsitz
400 pages – Temple University Press
"George Lipsitz's classic book The Possessive Investment in Whiteness argues that public policy and private prejudice work together to create a possessive investment in whiteness that is responsible for the racialized hierarchies of our society. Whiteness has a cash value: it accounts for advantages that come to individuals through profits made from housing secured in discriminatory markets, through the unequal educational opportunities available to children of different races, through insider networks that channel employment opportunities to the friends and relatives of those who have profited most from past and present discrimination, and especially through intergenerational transfers of inherited wealth that pass on the spoils of discrimination to succeeding generations. White Americans are encouraged to invest in whiteness, to remain true to an identity that provides them with structured advantages. In this twentieth anniversary edition, Lipsitz provides a new introduction and updated statistics; as well as analyses of the enduring importance of Hurricane Katrina; the nature of anti-immigrant mobilizations; police assaults on Black women, the killings of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and Freddie Gray; the legacy of Obama and the emergence of Trump; the Charleston Massacre and other hate crimes; and the ways in which white fear, white fragility, and white failure have become drivers of a new ethno-nationalism. " -from the Temple University Press website
Who Will Speak for America? edited by Stephanie Feldman and Nathaniel Popkin
"The editors and contributors to Who Will Speak for America? are passionate and justifiably angry voices providing a literary response to today's political crisis. Inspired by and drawing from the work of writers who participated in nationwide Writers Resist events in January 2017, this volume provides a collection of poems, stories, essays, and cartoons that wrestle with the meaning of America and American identity. The contributions—from established figures including Eileen Myles, Melissa Febos, Jericho Brown, and Madeleine Thien, as well as rising new voices, such as Carmen Maria Machado, Ganzeer, and Liana Finck—confront a country beset by racial injustice, poverty, misogyny, and violence. Contributions reflect on the terror of the first days after the 2016 Presidential election, but range well beyond it to interrogate the past and imagine possible American futures. Who Will Speak for America? inspires readers by emphasizing the power of patience, organizing, resilience and community. These moving works advance the conversation the American colonists began, and that generations of activists, in their efforts to perfect our union, have elevated and amplified. All royalties will benefit the Southern Poverty Law Center." – from the Temple University Press website
Tin House Books
Who is Vera Kelly by Rosalie Knecht
272 pages – Tin House Books
"New York City, 1962. Vera Kelly is struggling to make rent and blend into the underground gay scene in Greenwich Village. She's working night shifts at a radio station when her quick wits, sharp tongue, and technical skills get her noticed by a recruiter for the CIA. Next thing she knows she's in Argentina, tasked with wiretapping a congressman and infiltrating a group of student activists in Buenos Aires. As Vera becomes more and more enmeshed with the young radicals, the fragile local government begins to split at the seams. When a betrayal leaves her stranded in the wake of a coup, Vera learns the Cold War makes for strange and unexpected bedfellows, and she's forced to take extreme measures to save herself. An exhilarating page turner and perceptive coming-of-age story, Who Is Vera Kelly? introduces an original, wry and whip-smart female spy for the twenty-first century." -from the Tin House website

Nightwolf by Willie Davis
286 pages – Amazon
"Nightwolf introduces us to the inimitable Milo Byers, a seventeen-year-old dropout whose brother is missing and mother has given up on life. In Lexington, Kentucky, Milo spends his nights being a bar bouncer and boosting cars while searching for his brother, who he suspects is a mysterious figure named "Nightwolf." Nightwolf stalks the streets, tagging local businesses, while wearing a trash-bag over his head with eyeholes cut out,and making nonsensical threats to local news outlets. Caught between rival heavies Thomas the Prophet and Egan Hopper, Milo must choose what he stands for and the type of adult he wants to be." – from the 7.13 Books website

Australian broadcaster SBS has again lead the way in Social TV with an engaging, multiplatform viewing experience for the world's biggest song contest, Eurovision.
SBS has maximized this year's coverage through TV, radio, online and live social media integration. never.no's Social TV platform was used to curate, moderate and publish the incoming social media content for on air playout with the Vizrt graphics.

Study: How Your Facebook Privacy Settings Impact Graph Search →
Facebook created a tool for users which digs into your data
bits.blogs.nytimes.com writes that Facebook has spent eight years nudging its users to share everything they like and everything they do. Now, the company is betting it has enough data so that people can find whatever they want on Facebook. And on Tuesday, it unveiled a new tool to help them dig for it.
The tool, which the company calls graph search, is Facebook's most ambitious stab at overturning the Web search business ruled by its chief rival, Google. It is also an effort to elbow aside other Web services designed to unearth specific kinds of information, like LinkedIn for jobs, Match for dates and Yelp for restaurants.
Facebook has spent over a year honing graph search, said Mark Zuckerberg, the company's co-founder and chief executive, at an event here at Facebook's headquarters introducing the new product. He said it would enable Facebook users to search their social network for people, places, photos and things that interest them.
That might include, Mr. Zuckerberg offered, Mexican restaurants in Palo Alto that his friends have "liked" on Facebook or checked into. It might be used to find a date, dentist or job, other Facebook executives said.
"Graph search," Mr. Zuckerberg said, "is a completely new way to get information on Facebook."
Graph search will be immediately available to a limited number of Facebook users — in the "thousands," Mr. Zuckerberg said — and gradually extended to the rest.
Every Internet platform company has been interested in conquering search.
But Facebook search differs from other search services because of the mountain of social data the company… (read the rest of the story HERE).

The money due under the settlement approved by the board will be paid to Leroy Orange in five equal installments, the last of which is due in January 2014. He spent 19 years behind bars until former Gov. George Ryan pardoned him in 2003. Like several other former murder defendants, Orange alleged that former Chicago Police Cmdr. Jon Burge used torture to force his murder confession. Neither the city nor the county admitted wrongdoing in settling the cases.

Much of the gamer discussion sorrounding the Xbox Scorpio, besides its amazing hardware specifications, has been on its pricepoint. The Scorpio is indeed the most powerful console of all time and Microsoft have repeatedly claimed that it's a premium hardware which is meant for the enthusiast community.
At this point, Microsoft haven't announced a pricepoint for the Scorpio and judging by its specifications it won't be cheap. However according to a listing on Spanish retailer Xtralife.es, the Scorpio will be priced at 399.99 €. Neogaf user eso76 got hold of an image showcasing the listing. However, it seems that the listing has been taken down which could be a hint that this price may have been correct and the company wanted to avoid trouble but this is mere speculation from our end.
Microsoft is expected to reveal the release date and the price-point of Project Scorpio at this year's E3. Thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments section below.
