There are only three drugs on the WHO essential medicines list whose active ingredients are sourced entirely in China, the FDA found. They are capreomycin and streptomycin, which are used to treat tuberculosis, and sulfadiazine, which is used to treat trachoma, among other things.
110M prescriptions for Lisinopril were written in 2016, making it the second most prescribed drug in the U.S. We analyzed 20mg of the Lisinopril brand name drug along with five generics currently available on the market from five different global manufacturers – two made in the U.S.; two from China; and two from India.

Latest available estimates by the OECD showed that in 2015, foreign input accounted for 12.2% — or around $2.2 trillion — of total goods and services consumed in the U.S. China was the largest contributing country of that foreign input, the data showed.
Chinese pharmaceutical companies have supplied more than 90 percent of U.S. antibiotics, vitamin C, ibuprofen and hydrocortisone, as well as 70 percent of acetaminophen and 40 to 45 percent of heparin in recent years, according to Yanzhong Huang, a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations.
At one time, decades ago, penicillin, vitamin C, and many other prescription and over-the-counter products were manufactured in the United States. But now, antibiotics, antidepressants, birth control pills, blood pressure medicines, cancer drugs, among many others are made in China and sold in the United States.
Many over-the-counter and generic drugs [PDF] sold in the United States are made in China, including antidepressants, HIV/AIDS medications, birth control pills, chemotherapy treatments, and medicines for Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, epilepsy, and Parkinson's disease.
While the Department of Defense only purchases a small quantity of finished pharmaceuticals from China, about 80 percent of the active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) used to make drugs in the United States are said to come from China and other countries like India.
The U.S. relies on imported medicines from China in a big way. Antibiotics, over-the-counter pain meds and the stuff that stops itching and swelling — a lot of it is imported from China.

A dive into the Swedish DPA's first GDPR fine
The Swedish data protection authority, Datainspektionen, initiated an audit of the public school board of Skellefteå municipality earlier this year after having received media reports that the school board, in a trial project at Anderstorps upper secondary school, had used facial-recognition technology to register student presence during a few weeks. After it conducted its investigation, the Swedish DPA fined the school SEK 200,000 ($29,000 U.S.), which was the first fine it had administered under the EU General Data Protection Regulation. In a piece for The Privacy Advisor, Sharp Cookie Advisors Partner Sofia Edvardsen, CIPP/E, breaks down the enforcement action and explains how the DPA set a high standard for future penalties.

Baltimore's Zero Waste Future
by Neil Seldman and Toby Harris | Date: 31 May 2022 | posted in: Composting, environment, equity, governance, waste - anti-incineration, waste - composting, waste - recycling, waste - recycling based economic development, waste - zero waste, Waste to Wealth | 0
ILSR has been supporting grass roots, youth led community organizations in Baltimore fending off new incinerators while implementing urgent Zero Waste measures, transitioning the City from the aged, polluting incinerator in Downtown, Southwest Baltimore. These Zero Waste practices would further help the city and assorted communities across the region address other pressing challenges and opportunities; including the need for more good jobs, reduced recidivism, elimination of the 'digital divide', and creation of new small businesses, community-based composting and food production in addition to environmental education.
The following article makes suggestions for transforming Baltimore's current recycling system, developing an equitable local compost sector, expanding re-use businesses, and advancing general infrastructure development. The City administration is calling for the immediate setting and implementation of Zero Waste goals and local facilities. Updates on youth led community-based activity in the context of rapidly changing Zero Waste markets, technology and entrepreneurial opportunities are also provided.
Amendments to the 10- year Solid Waste Management Plan for Baltimore City are being heard for approval by the Board of Estimates on Wednesday, June 1, 2022. The time is ripe for a new look at Baltimore's recycling, composting and overarching waste management system. The national recycling average is nearly 35 percent while the Maryland Recycling Act mandates a recycling rate of at least 35 percent. Baltimore is far below what the best recycling cities are doing across the United States, approaching or beyond 75 percent, in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Oceanside, CA, Bethlehem, NY, Seattle, WA, and Portland, OR. A much more proactive approach is needed as Baltimore's recycling rate has hovered between 15-24 percent over the last decade while the 10-year Solid Waste Management Plan omits any goals to increase composting. Although the "Food Matters" Program funded by the Natural Resources Defenses Council and the lack of local compost infrastructure are highlighted in the 10 year Solid Waste Management Plan, no specific goals to evaluate sites for a compost facility alone or in partnerships with private operators are included. With City administration calling for Zero Waste now, a commitment to a co-equal joint development process advancing recycling, compost, re-use organizations and overarching local Zero Waste infrastructure is needed to end the regions' long reliance on environmentally unjust landfills and incinerators.
The US recycling system changed dramatically in 2018 when China banned imports of recycled materials from the United States, as loads regularly contained contaminated rates as high as 40 percent. Even a totalitarian regime could not withstand the public outrage and international embarrassment of its 'recycling system' after the film Plastic China by Juliang Wang, 'A Portrait of Poverty, Ambition and Hope Set in a World of Hate', was released and distributed in 2017. Besides, China's 20-year plan to introduce needed raw materials into their infrastructure factories was nearly complete. The Country's excellent recycling program can now supply factories, as envisioned by Chou En Lai when he declared that the 10,00 workers of the Shanghai Resource Recovery Company be formed immediately after Communist victory in 1949.
US recycling has pivoted to domestic markets, which has been a boon for local recycling efforts. Investment in recycled paper mills, plastic plants and electronic scrap recycling and reuse has soared. Prices for paper, plastic and electronic scrap surpassed prices from before the China Debacle when prices fell to zero. The market for glass has proven insatiable and investments in composting and anaerobic digestion are rolling throughout the country. This is certainly true in the Baltimore Region, given the rapid expansion of capacity to process source separated organic material from households, businesses and other institutions.
But Baltimore itself has not yet fully adjusted to these new opportunities, and as a result is paying a high opportunity cost for continued investment in an at best mediocre resource management system. The recycling rate for the city hovers at 24%. Ironically, several years ago Baltimore did make a highly profitable investment in composting. Camp Small transforms yard debris into compost for city projects and processes fallen trees into lumber for the region's wood working sector. The project was funded by the city's financial agency and has paid off in hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings while also producing revenue. The project is repaying the initial $100,000 loan from Baltimore's Innovation Loan Fund to start the city enterprise. But plans for replicating Camp Small, even with federal aid, have stalled; despite the development of a comprehensive citywide plan for organics collection and processing several years ago; and despite the progress made in the private sector. New state laws mandating composting and the availability of funding from federal Build Back programs offer a vast opportunity for capturing up to 90 percent of the city's organic discards within a few years. Organic matter can comprise up to 40 percent of the city's waste stream.
The rest of the city's recycling program remains based on pre 2018 framework, continuing the single stream mistakes of the pre-China era.
The city collects mixed recyclables and ships them 20 miles out of town for processing by Waste Management in Elkridge, MD. The process is sloppy. Glass, which is 20-25 percent of the recycling stream, is not recycled for industry. Rather, the company utilizes glass for its own purposes as a landfill cover. The company has not installed proper equipment despite the demand for recycled glass by diverse industries: 100,000 tons of recycled glass is equivalent to 2,000 industrial jobs in bottle and insulation manufacturing, construction and abrasives industries.
Instead of sending off mixed low value materials worth less than $100 per ton, Baltimore could be processing these same items into clean, baled and aggregated materials in house, producing exports worth up to $650 and higher. In addition, with local processing, about 25 direct jobs would be created at one such facility in Baltimore.
More jobs are in the offing.
A bill that mandates the deconstruction of buildings in the city, proposed by City Council Member Odette Ramos, would increase the number of jobs at one deconstruction company in Baltimore, Second Chance, by 250 jobs, doubling their current employment of 250 workers earning fair wages and benefits. Second Chance crews cover the entire east Coast and as far west as Ohio to keep a vibrant inventory of valuable, often hard to get, building materials. This company is just one of three pioneering non-profit organizations that make Baltimore distinct. Baltimore based non-profit Humanim pioneered training for hundreds of workers through deconstructing abandoned buildings under contract with the City. For the past 30 years, the Loading Dock nonprofit building materials reuse center has further provided recycled building materials to low-income communities.
Future Beckoning
Even better, more jobs are available with a few tweaks to the current recycling system using updated technologies.
+ Mini Materials Recovery Facilities or MRFs
MRF's are small scale (50-150 tons per day), recycling processing plants cost less to build and operate than sending materials to a large 1,000 ton per day processing plant. Baltimoreans can go kick the tires at the newest plant in the United States in Cumberland County, NJ. Or see the videos of the operating plants in Steamboat Springs, CO. Each plant needs 25 workers. Three strategically located plants in Baltimore, all shipping directly to end use markets will allow recycling trucks to tip their loads quickly and get back on route efficiently and more cost effectively.
+ Implementing Dual Stream
recycling would also add more jobs and increase revenue to the city by delivering clean materials, a crucial key to domestic markets. Even during the post China import ban debacle, communities that had good dual stream systems continued to sell to markets for paper, glass, plastic and metal. Baltimore is poised for dual stream recycling now after the Recycling Partnership paid for new carts for each household in the city. Limited community education materials were distributed or posted with additional funding from the Recycling Partnership while direct outreach around properly utilizing the new carts varied across the city and council districts.
However, the carts are being used to continue the flawed single stream system, shipping low quality, contaminated materials out of town for poor processing. But, these carts could underpin a dual stream system—all paper in the carts, all containers in a bin to be collected at the same time, a first step towards obtaining high quality dual stream materials begins.
Dual stream collection can be as cost effective as single stream collection too. The cost of processing dual stream materials is one-third the cost of single stream processing; yet another source of savings for the city.
+ Curb sort collection
Curb sort collection offers an opportunity for even more savings and efficiencies. Curb sort requires collection workers to sort through bins and place them in compartments for each material on the truck.
https://www.romaquip.com/kerb-sort#productivity
Collection costs are increased because of labor time needed to complete routes. Three workers may be used instead of two. But there are valuable advantages: Clean, sorted and processed (balers on board) are delivered to the specialized mini MRF, processing costs can be as low as $45 per ton, as compared to $80 -$120 per ton in a single stream MRF. The new generation of curb sort trucks can collect source separated organic materials from households for composting and/or digestion, too.
These 'clean stream' materials go to the front of the line for marketing materials. Non-recyclable items are left in the bin for the households to see what is not recyclable. This means the end of 'wishcycling' — placing something in the recycle bin that you want to be recycled— and a drastic reduction in contamination. Coupled with appropriate community engagement and education measures, no better educational medium exists.
+ Repair and Reuse
"Repair and reuse are the highest forms of recycling as they keep already made products in circulation", says Dan Knapp, owner of Urban Ore, Inc., a materials recycling company in Berkeley, CA. Reusable and repairable items make up only from 2-5 percent of the waste stream, but they are valued at $500/ton. These forms of upstream recycling are job and skill intensive. And, reuse and repair efforts pay sales tax. Resale operations across the US are reporting enormous growth in sales since the pandemic started. Urban Ore recently paid over $300,000 in sales tax. The most ever. Same with Community Fork Lift in Hyattsville, MD where profits grew 34% in 2021. A city-sponsored Reuse Center, an old warehouse, school or abandoned mall, could create a network of repair industries in Baltimore. In Eugene, OR, Saint Vincent De Paul earns $1 million annually from its sale of used and repaired products, including appliances, computers, furniture and mattresses. Reuse and repair are being further expanded under new state 'Right to Repair' Laws.
Baltimore Next Steps
The know how, technology and business opportunities are available for rapid transformation- from a run of the mill urban recycling program, with little impact on Baltimore city, into a new system with vibrant job and local wealth production through the added value of raw materials and used items. In this new configuration, Baltimore's $80 million DPW budget is not a disposal system but an economic engine, as in China, feeding local and regional factories with clean materials for clean production—using recycled materials saves water and energy, reduces air emissions and reduces the city's climate footprint all in one while generating good, clean jobs for and in community.
A new recycling collection approach and arrangement does even more. Recycling is at the cross roads of essential services and depurate need. City recycling jobs are unionized and a strong need exists for more of these good, healthy, safe family sustaining positions. Reuse practices can further dramatically reduce recidivism. Humanim had a zero-recidivism rate for over three years in its deconstruction-training program. The Second Chance non-profit recycles people as well as building materials. Formerly marginalized community members are now engaged, empowered productive taxpayers and residents. Reusing building materials reduces the cost of hushing, while individuals acquire new skills. Networks of curb swaps, repair cafes, community tool libraries or tool lending programs and varied fix it days or build events are further emerging. All of the above-named activities increase recycling and reuse, while adding value to the city's materials and further developing skills for residents. More recycling means more workers, higher wages, new small businesses and profits added to the regional tax base.
Furthermore, composting is directly tied to local food production and sustainable waste systems. The Compost for Community Initiative with The Institute for Local Self- Reliance developed the Hierarchy to Reduce Waste and Grow Community, emphasizing local small-scale composting as a preferred option when compared to larger scale, regional compost solutions. There are at least 12 confirmed sites in Baltimore's Community Composting Network with hundreds of additional sites across the city that compost, according to Clean Air Baltimoreorganizer and researcher Steph Compton.
https://ilsr.org/food-waste-hierarchy/
City administrative and logistical support can help deepen the impact on communities, such as further funding organizations like the Filbert Street Garden in Curtis Bay, an important community environmental, educational and cultural center institution growing trees, animals and flowers.
http://filbertstreetgarden.org/gallery/
The city could provide a 'shared fee 'for every ton diverted from the waste stream to these community composting operations based on the savings that the city accrues when tons of materials are diverted from the waste stream. Such a shared savings program could pay composters $50-$100 per ton based on the actual cost savings to the city for collection and disposal.
Baltimore's Fair Development Plan for Zero Waste, A Just Transition
Shashawnda Campbell, Destiny Watford and other Benjamin Franklin High School youth environmental justice leaders successfully organized against a planned 4,000 ton per day garbage incinerator project in their South Baltimore communityin 2016. Leaders with The South Baltimore Community Land Trust (SBCLT) sustained ongoing regional outreach, organizational and advocacy efforts, publishing Baltimore's Fair Development Plan for Zero Waste in February 2020 with the Institute for Local Self Reliance and Zero Waste Associates.
Under then City Council President Scott's leadership, Baltimore City Council passed a resolution in the Spring of 2020 calling on the Mayor, Board of Estimates and relevant City agencies to formally acknowledge and move forward in implementing the Fair Development for Zero Waste, Though the city has yet to fully engage with the plan since, Mayor Scott and city leadership can still take advantage of this unique opportunity to join communities, organizations and institutions, working in alignment with a variety of companies to design and advance assorted Zero Waste initiatives.
The Fair Development Plan reflects the informed opinion of community members in frontline, environmental justice and community development organizations. As workers and residents near South Baltimore's various industrial facilities continue to incur toxic exposures to assorted environmental hazards, SBCLT and their partners remain committed to creating healthier, safer options for impacted employees through a just transition for workers. The Fair Development Plan needs to get a full hearing. A commitment to invest in this plan is needed to reap significant benefits to the city.
SBCLT Youth Leader Outreach
As the covid-19 pandemic continued to shift the world throughout 2020 and 2021, SBCLT Environmental Justice Coordinator Shashawnda Campbell advanced a virtual Zero Waste 'train the trainer' course as DPW established a limited Food Waste Drop-off Pilot Program, an "essential and necessary [step] to propel Baltimore towards a path of Zero Waste" according to Mayor Brandon Scott. Youth Zero Waste outreach specialist and social enterprise leaders Carlos Sanchez, Taysia Thompson, and Terriq Thompson developed a presentation with other community partners in SBCLT's citywide Zero Waste outreach coalition. Information around Baltimore's flawed waste management system and it's impacts on resident's health was shared with community associations and assorted stakeholders across the cityand Baltimore region. Steps or solutions residents and neighborhoods could take to advance Zero Waste efforts were presented and developed. Specifically, the SBCLT youth leader's placed focus on local compost solutions to reduce the quantity of organics entering the waste stream.
The SBCLT maintains their ongoing youth leadership while the Zero Waste outreach coalition has developed and continued intentional partnerships with assorted stakeholders. The SBCLT has been able to meet residents where they are and engage on relevant levels of Zero Waste infrastructure. For instance, the Village of Violetville Association was supported in their neighborhood's desire to set up a community compost drop off center serviced by regional private haulers. After Board member Telethia Moseley and community leader Nikomar Moseley constructed the compost station, residents are now able to drop their fruit or vegetable scraps, egg shells, grains, bread, pasta, coffee grounds and tea bags in the neighborhoods compost station while also tracking total organic tonnage diverted through a scannable QR code.
Ashley Esposito, Violetville Board Member and Zero Waste community leader, further shared the group's aims to develop a community engagement campaign specifically educating "neighbors who know nothing about composting or Zero Waste, sharing resources that currently exist in the city while developing a media campaign with easily digestible information and graphics."
Following the initial outreach and education orchestrated through the SBCLT youth organizers, additional community associations, gardens, businesses, non-profit organizations and medical systems in South and Southwest Baltimore are further coordinating, developing and advancing assorted types of composting and Zero Waste management now. The Baltimore Compost Collectivefurther serves households and businesses across the region and in South Baltimore. Additional companies and organizations working on organic materials in Baltimore include 4mycity and private haulers like Compost Cab, Compost Crew, and Veterans Compost.
There is further consensus between City government leaders, City agencies, SBCLT and frontline leading community organizations and other stakeholders, on the importance of genuine community engagement and education when advancing equitable Zero Waste infrastructure. A key feature of a proposed Zero Waste Recovery Park in South Baltimore would include infrastructure for educational programs, including compost demonstrations, reuse yards or remanufacturing amongst other options. The need for expansive and appropriate community engagement was outlined in Baltimore's Fair Development Plan and specifically noted by city liaisons in recent 2022 Zero Waste working group meetings. There is a missed opportunity to publicly highlight and report on the community engagement efforts and works that city agencies and leadership are already advancing with the SBCLT and their partners around a more sustainable and equitable ZW future.
Zero Waste Committee
The Baltimore City Council was contemplating the creation of a Zero Waste Commission. While such commission efforts have proven successful elsewhere, the SBCLT, their Zero Waste allies and some in positions of city government are calling for the creation of a unique, ad hoc Zero Waste committee in agreement on fair development principles driving Zero Waste infrastructure centered in South Baltimore. The co-equal, collaborating Zero Waste vehicle with City, Community and Institutions could be called for through a Mayoral Executive order or other relevant avenue, like an institutional sign on pledge calling for co-equal collaboration, memorialized through a mechanism like an MOU for instance. This committee would have legislative and public accountability through regular reporting, open meetings discussing progress, breakthroughs and challenges on Zero Waste projects while further advancing policy interventions with City Council. The SBCLT specifically outlines the following 5 minimum community standards during the planning and advancement of Zero Waste infrastructure, beginning with the creation of a 64-acre site in Curtis Bay:
Clean, safe, and cost-effective operations
A community benefits agreement
A local hiring commitment
A labor peace agreement
Community representation in facility governance
Austin, TX serves as an example of what a successful, appropriate, Zero Waste city council commission can look like; important lessons can be gleamed. In 1987, the City Council followed upon its unprecedented decision to cancel a garbage incinerator, already under construction and to invest in recycling, composting and reuse. The investment returns have been $1.1 billion in economic growth and 6,300 new jobs for Austin. Imagine what this Zero Waste buy in for Baltimore could look like?
Austin then changed the name of its Department of Public Works to the Department of Resource Recovery; prepared a Zero Waste Business Plan and commissioned the construction of a Resource Recovery Park for composting, recycling or reuse companies. Austin is now at a 45 percent recycling rate and striving for much higher goals.
Baltimore is now primed to take the same steps, as did Austin and many other cities. Invest in Zero Waste, co-equal community co-development and an efficient local supply chain of materials to industry and agriculture. The Recycling Partnership has provided the carts through a grant to the DPW. Federal money is available to complete the investments needed for collection and processing equipment. The private sector wants to partner. The hardest decision in recycling Neil Seldman has learned is making the first initial decision to recycle; once made, common sense and entrepreneurialism takeover. The lesson carries over to recycling education for youth. Study recycling and you will never be unemployed.

I heart my art cart! (Magnets are available at my shops).
I love that my mostly wordless Art Supply Addiction post was among my most popular this year. I guess there are more people than I realized who have trouble saying no to crayons (which we all know leads to harder stuff like paint and glitter).
Seriously, as problems go, art supply addiction is not a bad one to have. I know when I am feeling stuck creatively a new tool or medium can give me a much needed spark. Also, the more supplies I have on hand, the better I am able to serve my muse when she wakes me up with one of her supposedly brilliant ideas at five in the morning. However, I do have some guidelines that I follow to ensure that things don't get out of control.
1. I must have a place for them or I can't buy them.
If my shelves are crowded and my desk drawers are full, then I obviously don't need any more art supplies for awhile. In fact, that's good motivation to get busy making more art so I can free up some space for more goodies.
2. I must use them, not just keep them.
Paint and brushes are always going to be used sooner or later but when I purchase a new tool or medium I have a rule that I have to spend some time experimenting with it right away. There is no waiting for inspiration or taking a lot of time to research "the proper way" to use something. Inspiration and learning come from doing, not waiting.
3. If I haven't used them in awhile, they need to go.
Several years ago I got into making things with polymer clay. It was fun and I learned a lot from it but ultimately, it wasn't my calling. When I cleaned out my craft closet earlier this year I realized it was time to donate all of my clay tools. Like people, not all art and craft supplies are meant to stay in your life forever. Some just come into your life to teach you something and then move on and that's okay because then you have room for new art supplies! Hurray!
Are you addicted to art supplies too? I would love to hear your tips for dealing with this delightful dilemma.
Yep, I can completely relate! Now that I'm teaching more classes & workshops, I can share my supplies with others which has felt great & helped rein in some of the excess.
Thanks for the comment Lisa. Sharing them is the best way to get rid of extra art supplies. I wish you much continued success and enjoyment with your classes and workshops.

Cobham SATCOM Highlights New AVIATOR S Series in Portfolio of Satellite Communication Systems
Aerospace Communications
Cockpit and Cabin Connec...
Introducing its highly-regarded AVIATOR portfolio of airborne systems at the Singapore Airshow for the first time, leading satellite communications supplier Cobham SATCOM is highlighting the specific capabilities of the ground-breaking new AVIATOR S series.
LYNGBY, Denmark - Introducing its highly-regarded AVIATOR portfolio of airborne systems at the Singapore Airshow for the first time, leading satellite communications supplier Cobham SATCOM is highlighting the specific capabilities of the ground-breaking new AVIATOR S series.
Cobham recently expanded its range of satellite communication systems with the announcement of the new S series family of products, adding to the well-established line ranging from the AVIATOR 200 to the AVIATOR 700D.
Designed for future data-connected air transport aircraft ranging from regional turboprops to large jets, the new terminal and antenna product family reflects Cobham's commitment to the 'connected aircraft'. The AVIATOR S series will support a wide range of communication applications in both the cockpit and cabin, including cockpit voice dialling, in-flight calling and internet browsing.
The development of the new family of products is being driven by specifications formulated by the Air Transport Air-to-Ground-Communications working group, along with anticipated requirements for safety services and network domain separation for air traffic control. The versatile S series will allow secure data communication for aircraft operation, maintenance and management services, as Cobham prepares for the technology shift to Internet Protocol (IP) data-connected aircraft in the future.
The first system to be made available will be the AVIATOR 200S - a unique, compact two LRU (Line Replacement Unit) satellite communication system which will exploit the unique features of the Inmarsat SwiftBroadband packet data communication system.
Walther Thygesen, vice president of Cobham SATCOM, said: "Cobham's AVIATOR S series will significantly benefit aircraft operations by offering an extremely compact LRU and antenna configuration for safety services over SwiftBroadband, designed to the latest specifications for data segregation on the flight deck."
Cobham is working closely with Inmarsat to bring the new generation of airborne satellite communication to the market in the near future following final safety services approval of SwiftBroadband.
The AVIATOR S series forms part of Cobham SATCOM's comprehensive range of advanced AVIATOR satcom systems which provide simultaneous quality voice and high-speed data communications for cockpit and cabin for air transport, business jets and even unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The AVIATOR SwiftBroadband systems are easy to install and provide connectivity for applications including email, internet browsing, voice calls, data transmission, ISDN, smartphone connectivity and streaming video.
Allowing comprehensive and flexible installation options, Cobham also offers a range of high, intermediate and low gain Inmarsat satcom aeronautical antennas to support Inmarsat SwiftBroadband, Swift 64 and classic Aero I/M services.

US Beef is the largest franchisee of Arby's Restaurant Group. The US Beef footprint today serves guests in 330 restaurants across eight contiguous Midwest and Western US states.
Historically, US Beef used a structured 'mentored apprenticeship' model that saw trainees undergo a six-week paper based program working directly with training managers. The program was delivered in three two-week phases, each addressing approximately 5-10 skills areas.
The program consisted of training managers leading trainees through observations, practical exercises and evaluating trainee's ability to perform the skills needed as restaurant managers. Although the program delivered results, it was a very laver intensive process and required highly skilled training managers to assess trainees at each stage of the program. The program also required significant paperwork upkeep and organisation from training managers.
Kineo partnered with US Beef to expand their current MTP in order to create a new approach to training. The programme needed to; better suit the culture of US Beef, be rolled out on a wider scale and more efficient.
US Beef has seen excellent results from its Totara Learn so far. Training Managers can now train twice as many trainees simultaneously as with the previous system, making the training process much more efficient.
Senior Leaders and Training Coordinators in the organisation now have greater visibility into employee progress. Training Managers now require less support from District Managers owing to the more robust structure and support.
As well as this, US Beef and Kineo won a Gold award in the Best Blended Learning category in the Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards.
"When Kineo said they wanted to submit our MTP for an award, we were really excited. Not because we thought we would win, but because they're such a great partner, and it made us feel confident knowing Kineo had that level of pride in our project. So many people worked tirelessly on this assignment." – Bo Davis, US Beef chief operating officer, who led this initiative.

All parameters at 25°C unless otherwise specified In-built freewheeling diode across the power device.
Note: Inductive loads should be diode suppressed. All loads are inductive even ones that are not so labeled. When turned off an inductive load will produce harmful transient voltages. The more perfect the switch the larger the transient voltages. The IGBT output is so nearly an ideal switch that the transient voltages produced by seemingly 'non-inductive 'loads can cause damage if not suppressed. Diodes should be fast recovery type with PIV rated greater than supply voltage.

EXOTICK
no Attention NeedeD.
Wasiu Ojuolape Jr. "Exotick" is a self-taught artist who is inspired by graffiti art and the beauty of everyday life. The focal point of his art will capture you with familiar pop icons or the aesthetic of nature.The range of colors, shapes and patterns in the background will leave you mesmerized in the details while taking you through a personal journey through his creative mind. The ability as an artist to mix graffiti with other styles of art is what makes artistic creations unique.
Wasiu knew that art made him happy, and began to build his skills online with "how to" drawing lessons. Later, he became intrigued with graffiti and street art. Wasiu remembers practicing and having a sketch book filled with graffiti and carton drawings. This is when he got his inspiration for his brand name "Exotick".
Wasiu decided to advance his knowledge of art by taking his first art class in high school. His joy of creating grew as he learned the basic techniques and history of art. To further is studies in art he enrolled into college but only completed a year and half because he felt the classroom setting was not where he could find his inspiration. He left school with the intention of enhancing his own unique style. Wasiu enjoys working with both acrylic and spray paint but has no limitations on a medium.
"No Attention Needed" This is how the artist feels about his work. He feels that his art speaks for itself, and describes his work as energetic, extravagant, evolving and Exotick.

Q: Determine why or how RHEL 5.6 /root/bin folder being emptied? I have a number of RHEL 5.6 servers all built from a single template in vmware.  These servers have a number of scripts that reside in /root/bin but on some of the servers, I'm finding that the folder contents are being purged.  It's not happening on all servers.  I'm hoping that if something is going through to delete the contents, there would be a log file entry somewhere that would note it.  Are there any software packages for Linux that might be responsible for the contents being dumped?  They are not managed by puppet.

A: Have you checked the cron logs (/var/log/cron)?

Juniper Networks moves service providers, enterprises and cloud providers closer to fully realizing the promise of The Self-Driving Network with Juniper Bots, a series of new applications that simplify network operations by translating intent into automated workflows, as well as updates to the Juniper Extension Toolkit.
Compounding the issue, network operators have traditionally only been able to analyze a small portion of all the network data available due to technology shortfalls, and for decades, networking has largely been an exercise in precisely specifying behaviour, one configuration knob at a time, device by device. To solve for all of this, Juniper has unveiled Contrail Intent Bots and AppFormix Analytics Bots, both of which change the way network operators interact with the network.

FAQ of the Week: Since patent litigation is so expensive, how can I afford to enforce my patents?
Question: Since patent litigation is so expensive, how can I afford to enforce my patents?
Answer – Patent litigation is expensive, likely at least $750K had through discovery and at least another $750K through trial. If you have a product on the market that is bringing in good income it is of course possible to fund litigation from that income. A 2nd option is to find an attorney who will take the case on contingency, but most likely the case would have to be worth at least $10,000,000 for an attorney to take such a case. A 3rd option is to use a litigation funding company, which takes its out-of-pocket costs off the top of any positive settlement, and then splits the rest with the counsel. A 4th option is to secure offensive patent infringement insurance. In that case the insurance company would pay for the litigation, but of course the insurance company would only issue a policy to cover such litigation if there is no litigation being planned. To find out more, contact Intellectual Property Insurance Services Corporation, either directly or through your insurance agent.
This entry was posted in FAQ of the Week and tagged patent litigation.
FAQ of the Week: I'm confused by this recent office action. Why are there two deadlines, a 3-month deadline and a 2-month deadline?

This week's challenge involved picking four out of ten possible random items and using them in your story. I used "a leather mask", "a child's toy", "an animal's skull", and "a road sign" which mixed together to produce "Make-Believe".
Side-note: I'm going to be sitting out the next challenge in order to focus on some other projects and also start getting Half-Mad Rantings: Summer 2013 edited and cobbled together for publishing around the time of the Autumnal Equinox (don't forget that HMR: Spring 2013 is still available for sale!). So, "Make-Believe" and the other eleven stories of this set will be up for another week or two and then be taken down when the next Flash Fiction Challenge goes up.
Well written and very well crafted story. The prompts were integral to the tale you created, without them the story couldn't be told. That is a fantastic integration. Absolutely enthralling. So often it seems, flash fiction stories do not remember that they must have a beginning, a middle, and most importantly, and end. You ended this the only way it could/should have been ended — with another beginning. Marvelous work, HMR dude.

Wondering if everything is alright.
Momma said, "Come in boy, don't waste your time." I said, "I've got time.
Five years old and talking to myself.
Where were you? Where'd you go?
And I ain't the one to blame.
In my house of pain.
Wasn't I worth the time?
I paced my room a million times.
And all I ever got was one big lie, the same old lie.
Well, I was eighteen and still talking to myself.
Well, if I learned anything from this… It's how to live on my own.

Germany scuttles $5 billion chip deal with Taiwan firm amid tech sovereignty concerns

GlobalWafers, a Taiwanese firm that makes silicon wafers for computer chips, will no longer buy Munich-headquartered rival Siltronic after policymakers in Germany failed to approve the deal in time.
The deal's collapse late Monday evening comes as nations look to bolster their "tech sovereignty" so they don't have to be as reliant on other countries for critical technologies like semiconductors. Europe is currently heavily reliant on the U.S. and Asia, which are home to companies like Samsung, TSMC and Intel.
"The takeover offer by GlobalWafers and the agreements which came into existence as a result of the offer will not be completed and will lapse," GlobalWafers said Tuesday.
Germany's Economic Ministry did not clear the 4.35 billion euro ($4.9 billion) deal by the Jan. 31 deadline, meaning the proposed acquisition can't go ahead as planned.
"It was not possible to complete all the necessary review steps as part of the investment review — this applies in particular to the review of the antitrust approval by the Chinese authorities, which was only granted last week," a spokesperson for Germany's Economic Ministry said, according to Reuters.
The takeover, approved by regulators in China on Jan. 21, would have created the second biggest maker of 300-millimeter wafers behind Japan's Shin-Etsu.
GlobalWafers will now have to pay a termination fee of 50 million euros to Siltronic.
Wafers are a key building block in the chips that are used to power everything from iPhones to car parking sensors.
Germany, which is home to Infineon and a number of other chipmakers, has grown increasingly wary about the semiconductor global supply chain after a worldwide chip shortage hurt its well-known car industry.
The ministry said an investment review would be carried out again if GlobalWafers chose to make a new acquisition attempt.
Doris Hsu, CEO of GlobalWafers, said the outcome was "very disappointing," adding that the firm will "analyze the non-decision of the German government and consider its impact on our future investment strategy."
In a statement, the company said, "Europe remains an important market for GlobalWafers and it remains committed to the customers and employees in the region."
Siltronic did not respond to a request for comment.
Shares of Siltronic were up over 2% in morning trade Tuesday on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
Elsewhere, a number of other chip deals are also being probed by governments and regulators. The most notable of which is Nvidia's $40 billion bid for U.K. chip designer Arm, which is currently owned by Japan's SoftBank.
Critics are concerned that the merger with Nvidia — which designs its own chips — could restrict access to Arm's "neutral" semiconductor designs and may lead to higher prices, less choice and reduced innovation in the industry. But Nvidia contends that the deal will lead to more innovation and that Arm will benefit from increased investment.

Oregon Divorce Law
Overview of Oregon Revised Statutes: Chapter 107. Copyright WomansDivorce.com
Residency requirements - If the couple was married in Oregon and at least one spouse is still a resident of the state, the residency requirement is met. If the marriage occurred in another state, at least one spouse must be a resident of OR for at least six months before filing for a dissolution. (Chapter 107.075)
Where to file for divorce: A petition for dissolution, annulment, or separation can only be filed in the county where either the petitioner or respondent resides. (Chapter 107.086)
Grounds for divorce or separation: The only ground for dissolution or separation is irreconcilable differences. There are no recognized fault grounds for divorce (Chapter 107.025)
Conversion of a legal separation to a judgment of dissolution - Within a two year time period after a judgment of separation has been granted, either party may request a motion from the court to convert the separation into a judgment of dissolution. After the two year period, a petition of dissolution must be filed. (Chapters 107.465)
Division of Assets and Debts - Oregon is an equitable distribution state, meaning the martial estate will be divided in an equitable manners as compared to an even split. The fault of one spouse does not factor into the division. Inheritances, gifts, and property or assets acquired prior to the couple's marriage remain the separate property of that spouse. Retirement plans and the contributions as a homemaker are considered in the division of marital property. The court may also consider the effect of taxes and cost of sale when dividing the marital estate. (Chapter 107.105)
Alimony - Temporary spousal support may be awarded to allow a spouse time to receive the training needed to re-enter the workforce. When awarding alimony, the court considers duration of marriage, the dependent spouses work history and employment skills, the financial resources of each party, and other factors. Longer term alimony may be awarded based on marriage duration, the ages, health, resources, and earning capacity of the spouses, the dependent spouse's contribution as a homemaker, the standard of living which was established during the marriage, the custodial and child support responsibilities of each spouse, and any other factor the court deems relevant. (Chapter 107.105)
Name change - Either party may request to change the name of a spouse to a name held prior to marriage. (Chapter 107.105)
Child custody - Custody may be awarded to either parent without regard to gender. In determining custody of the minor children from the marriage, the court will consider: the relationship the child has with each parent; the emotional ties between the child and other family member; the abuse of one parent by the other; the preference of the child for a primary care-giver if that parent is deemed fit by the court; the willingness of each parent (in the absence of abuse) to foster an ongoing bond between the child and the other parent. The court may also consider either parent's conduct, income, marital status, social environment or life style if it can be shown to be a factor which may cause or is currently causing emotional or physical damage to the child. (Chapter 107.137)
Child support - The child support awarded will be determined by applying the Child Support Guidelines as established under ORS 25.275. Generally child support is ordered for minor children from the marriage who are still considered dependents of the parents, are under 18 years of age, and who are not self-supporting, emancipated or married. Child support orders will include provisions for payment of the child's uninsured medical expenses, medical support for the child, and the maintenance of insurance or other security for support. (Chapters 107.105 and 107.106)
