Q: Why can I checkout a branch that was removed on GitHub? In our GitHub repository, a coworker removed a branch named release. But when I run git checkout release locally, I always get the removed branch release. Same, even when I checked out another branch, deleted the release branch with git branch -D release and ran again git checkout release.
Is there something to fix on the GitHub repository, or shall I fix something locally?

A: Tim: Git is distributed VCS, so when you clone a repo from remote to your local it clones everything (history).
So when you cloned your repo, it had a branch called release. Since your colleague deleted release branch remotely, till you do a prune git fetch -p or delete that branch explicitly your local will have that branch.

A: After deleting a branch on the remote side you may still see this formerly fetched remote branch locally, see:
$ git branch -a
[...]
release
remotes/origin/release
[...]

You only removed the "release" but not "remotes/origin/release". Delete it like this:
$ git branch -rd origin/release

Or remove all fetched branches which do not exist on the remote side anymore:
$ git remote prune origin

A: When branches are deleted remotely, you need to prune your local repository — the easiest way to do this is with
git fetch -p

This will update your local repository with all the changes made to the remote repository, but without updating any of your local branches. After running this,
git branch --remote

will no longer show the deleted remote branch.
git repositories are complete, whether on your own system or on the server. So when you first clone a repository, you get a complete copy, and your local git "knows" about all the remote branches as well as your local branches. This information isn't synced automatically, so when your colleague deleted the release branch on the server, your local git repository didn't lose its notion of a remote release branch. Syncing with git fetch updates all the local information on remote branches so they match the state on the server (strictly speaking, remote repository, wherever that is), but without deleting any local information on remote branches. Pruning with git fetch -p (or git fetch --prune, or git remote prune) removes the local information on remote branches which have been deleted.

A: Perhaps a bit tangential but the perspective of this site might help to understand the general topic of deleting branches:
http://railsware.com/blog/2014/08/11/git-housekeeping-tutorial-clean-up-outdated-branches-in-local-and-remote-repositories/
There is overlap with some of what's already been discussed here but the focus is on housekeeping: deleting branches, remote and local, that are no longer needed in a collaborative environment. In particular the git branch --merged command identifies branches that are safe to delete due to being merged to your mainline (or whatever branch you care about). If you're collaborating, some fancier mini scripts like this one will present things in a nice, digestible format with dates and authors.
for branch in `comm -12  <(git branch --merged|awk '{print($1)}') <(git branch -r --merged|awk '{print($1)}'|awk -F \/ '{print($2)}')`; do echo -e `git show --format="%ci %cr %an" $branch | head -n 1` \\t$branch; done | sort -r

(Unfortunately "nice, digestible" doesn't apply to the formatting of the scripts themselves.)

GUEST BLOG: Pragmatic Federalism In a Blockchained World by Aegis Frumento Esq (BrokeAndBroker.com Blog)
http://www.brokeandbroker.com/4290/frumento-federalism=blockchain/
The Securities and Exchange Commission is trying to regulate cryptocoins and coin exchanges nationally with position papers and enforcement actions, which is rather clumsy. This comes just as blockchain fever seems to have broken, being hyped less and less on earnings calls as people realize how little they understand it. Blockchain-enabled instruments and transactions are a truly new thing, and the statutes governing the SEC were never intended for them. It will be a long time before Congress passes blockchain-specific legislation, and Congress will never be able to act fast enough. Technology always evolves faster than applicable laws can be passed, and blockchain is morphing faster than most. For all those reasons, the SEC's efforts will remain imperfect and always late. But the States -- particularly New York and California -- are better positioned to enact regulations tailored to the realities of these new financial tools. Being where much of tech and finance is located, those States can act faster and more precisely than Congress or the SEC.
Former State Street Executive Sentenced for Scheme to Defraud Clients Through Secret Trading Commissions (DOJ Release)
https://www.justice.gov/usao-ma/pr/former-state-street-executive-sentenced-scheme-defraud-clients-through-secret-trading-0
Pursuant to the filing of an Indictment in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, former State Street Corporation executive vice president and president of its U.S. broker-dealer unit, Ross McLellan, was convicted by a federal jury of one count of conspiring to commit securities fraud and wire fraud, two counts of securities fraud and two counts of wire fraud; and he was was sentenced to 18 months in prison and two years of supervised release after being Former State Street managing director Richard Boomgaardt pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud and wire fraud, and was sentenced to one year of probation. Former senior managing director and the head of the Portfolio Solutions Group for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Edward Pennings, pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud and wire fraud, and was sentenced to six months in prison. As set forth in part in the DOJ Release:
Between February 2010 and September 2011, Pennings, McLellan, and Boomgaardt conspired to add secret commissions to fixed income and equity trades performed for six clients of the bank's "transition management" business, which helps institutional clients move their investments between and among asset managers or liquidate large investment portfolios. The commissions were charged on top of fees that the clients had agreed to pay to the bank, and despite written instructions to the bank's traders that generally reflected that the clients were not to be charged trading commissions. Pennings, McLellan, and Boomgaardt took steps to hide the commissions from the clients and others within the bank, including by directing that the commissions not be broken out in post-trade reports.
In June 2011, when one of the affected clients inquired about whether it had, in fact, been charged commissions in breach of its agreement with the bank, Pennings initially denied that any commissions had been charged. Later, at McLellan's direction, Pennings acknowledged only that "inadvertent commissions" had been applied to securities traded in the United States, but did not disclose that they had, in fact, been intentionally charged in both the United States and in Europe. Pennings and McLellan sought to mislead the bank's compliance staff into believing that the commissions had been charged in error and that the amount of the overcharges was limited to the commissions applied on U.S. securities.
Rare Dismissal by FINRA Arbitration Panel of Customer Complaint Prior to Conclusion of Case in Chief
In a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") Arbitration Statement of Claim filed in May 2018, public customer Claimants Fuchs asserted breaches of fiduciary duty and contract; fraud; negligence; negligent supervision; suitability; misrepresentation; and omission to state a material fact in connection with their investment in Woodbridge Notes. Claimants sought about $150,000 in compensatory damages plus punitive damages, rescission, interest, and costs. In the Matter of the FINRA Arbitration Between John and Jane Fuchs, Claimants, vs. G.F. Investment Services, LLC, Madison Avenue Securities, LLC, Andrew M. Costa, and Christopher Grant Conness, Respondents (FINRA Arbitration 18-01756, November 13, 2018). http://www.finra.org/sites/default/files/aao_documents/18-01756.pdf
Respondents GFIS, Costa and Conness did not file an executed Submission Agreements; however, in September 2018, the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida, issued a preliminary injunction enjoining Claimants from pursuing their claims in arbitration against Respondents GFIS, Costa and Conness. Accordingly, the FINRA Arbitration Panel made no determinations with respect to any of the claims asserted against said Respondents.
Respondent Madison moved to dismiss based upon its assertion that it was not associated with the accounts, securities or conduct at issue in this matter.Pointedly, the firm asserted that Claimants were never its clients and no business was transacted with them. Further, the firm asserted that no executed arbitration agreement existed with Claimants. The FINRA Arbitration Decision states that:
[C]laimants asserted they transacted business with Global Wealth Management ("GWM"), bought and maintained investments with GWM, received advice and guidance on their Woodbridge securities investment from GWM, and believed that the personnel at GWM were managing them. Claimants allege that since GWM is the alter ego of Respondents Costa and Conness, who are registered representatives of Respondent Madison, Claimants were customers of Madison. In its Reply, Respondent Madison stated that it and GWM are not now, and never have been affiliated entities, and that GWM is an independent financial services firm, which was founded by its managing directors, Respondents Costa and Conness, while they were still affiliated with Respondent GFIS.
Pursuant to FINRA Rule 12504(a)(6)(B) ((6) ("The panel cannot act upon a motion to dismiss a party or claim under paragraph (a) of this rule, unless the panel determines that: . . .(B) the moving party was not associated with the account(s), security(ies), or conduct at issue . . ."), the FINRA Arbitration Panel dismissed with prejudice Claimants' claims as against Respondent Madison. The arbitrators offered the following rationale:
"The Panel is cognizant of FINRA's policy that, prior to the conclusion of a party's case in chief, a Motion to Dismiss is discouraged. However, after car -consideration of the Statement of Claim and the arguments presented at the prehearing conference call and in the review of all documents, the Panel found no basis for imposing liability on Respondent Madison for losses sustained by Claimants. The moving party had no connection to the purchase of the subject securities, or to any fraud or misrepresentation related thereto. There is no basis for imposition of liability for failure to supervise, as there was no duty of Respondent Madison to supervise anyone connected with the subject securities. There is no contract between Respondent Madison and Claimants. While the Panel are loathe to deny Claimants an opportunity to present their case on the merits, in this instance there is no evidence which could support an award against Respondent Madison."

Former IT Administrator Found Guilty of Federal Charges for Hacking into Computers of His Former Employer in Irvine (DOJ Release)
https://www.justice.gov/usao-cdca/pr/former-it-administrator-found-guilty-federal-charges-hacking-computers-his-former
After a five-day jury trial, Nikishna Polequaptewa was found guilty in the United States District Court for the Central District of California of one count of unauthorized impairment of a protected computer and causing over $50,000 in loss. As much as I would love to spin this yarn, let me step back and quote from the DOJ Release:
Beginning in April 2014, Polequaptewa worked at Blue Stone Strategy Group, which provided consulting services to Native American tribal governments throughout the United States. In addition to his consulting responsibilities, Polequaptewa led information technology and marketing at Blue Stone.
In November 2014, Polequaptewa was relieved of IT and marketing duties after he began falling behind on work. Following this change in responsibilities, Polequaptewa was assigned to a consulting project in Florida for the Seminole Tribe. While on that project, Polequaptewa deleted Blue Stone's website and marketing materials that the company had developed over eight years.
Polequaptewa resigned in Florida and continued to delete Blue Stone files, including client information, Blue Stone work product, and the company's backup files held by a third-party. Polequaptewa's final deletion was done by sending a "wipe" command to a Blue Stone desktop computer in Irvine.

The horticultural sector of Flower Exporters in Kenya currently ranks as one of the economy's fastest growing industries. The Kenyan horticultural sector also ranks as the third largest foreign exchange earner after tourism and tea. This has been reflected in virtually year on year expansion in fruit, vegetable and flower exports, a trend that saw the industry rise 31% in 2003 with total exports reaching 130 000 tonnes in 2003.

St. John Cantius took five years to build and is one of the best examples of sacred architecture in the city. Its grand Baroque interior has remained intact for more than a century and is known for its opulence, reminiscent of the sumptuous art and architecture of 19th-century Krakow. Its unusual High Altar and the statuary on it can be traced back to the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893. Of all the "Polish Cathedral" churches in Chicago, St. John Cantius stands closest to downtown. The imposing 195-foot tower is easy to spot from the nearby Kennedy Expressway. St. John Cantius is particularly well-known for its program of solemn liturgies and devotions, treasures of sacred art and rich music. In 2012, an ambitious restoration returned the interior to its original splendor.

Northumbria Police backs national campaign to reduce knife crime
Northumbria Police is taking part in a national drive to reduce knife crime.
Updated Friday, 13th September 2019, 12:28 pm
One of the knife bins
From Monday until Sunday, September 22, the force will join others across the country to take part in Operation Sceptre – aimed at reducing the devastating effects of knife crime.
People will be able to hand in any knives or sharp objects, while officers will be carrying out a range of targeted activity from weapon sweeps to increased patrols and engaging with young people, delivering workshops to raise awareness of the devastation carrying knives can cause.
Assistant Chief Constable Helen McMillan, Northumbria Police's lead for serious and violent crime, said: "Recently, we have seen a number of high-profile cases and attacks involving knives across the country and this has understandably raised concerns.
Assistant Chief Constable Helen McMillan
"I would like to reassure people living in our communities that we take a very strong stance on knife crime and on all forms of serious violence.
"I would also like to stress that our area continues to experience low levels of knife crime compared to other big cities across the country, but we are not complacent and any incident is one too many. We are fully committed to making the streets we live and work as safe as we can."
Northumbria Police and Crime Commissioner, Kim McGuinness, said: "Any initiative that helps raise awareness of the dangers of carrying a knife and that helps recover sharp objects from our streets gets my full support. I'm passionate about keeping our local communities safe and early intervention, preventative outreach work is at the top of my agenda.
"I'm in the process of establishing a Violence Reduction Unit to work across the whole of Northumbria, with all six local authorities, and believe a public health approach focusing on the root causes will have a positive impact on driving down crime involving knives."
Bins will be at police stations across the force area
If any of the items handed in are tested and found to contain DNA linking them to a crime. a thorough investigation will be carried out.
The knives will be destroyed by the force's armoury, and bins will be at stations, including South Tyneside and Southwick.

Planning Center
Tip: Public Costs. Average in–state tuition and fees for public four-year institutions was $9,970 for the 2017-2018 school year. Out-of-state tuition for these same institutions averaged $25,620.
Source: College Board, 2017
It doesn't take a degree in finance to see the cost of college continues to rise.
In its 2017 report, the College Board showed that public four-year institutions raised prices an average of 3.2% annually between the 2007-08 and 2017-18 school years. Put another way, a $5,000 education in 2007-08 would cost $6,851 in 2017-18.
For a few families, the lion's share of education costs falls on parents and, in some cases, on grandparents. Generally the majority of families rely on a combination of scholarships, grants, financial aid, part-time jobs, and parent support to help pay the cost.
Fast Fact: Private Costs. Tuition and fees for private four-year institutions averaged $34,740 for the 2017-2018 school year. If you add room and board, the figure rises to $46,950.
If your child is approaching college age, a good first step is estimating the potential costs. The accompanying worksheet can help you get a better idea about the cost of a four-year college.
If you've already put money away for college, the worksheet will take that amount into consideration. If you haven't, it's never too late to start.
There are a number of resources that can help individuals prepare for college. The U.S. government distributes certain information on colleges and costs. Here are two sites to consider reviewing:
www.studentaid.ed.gov
The government's college and financial aid portal.
The group that administers the SAT test.

West Brom's January signing Ali Gabr has officially received his work permit to play for the Baggies - meaning that the Egypt international is now available for his new side's FA Cup encounter with Southampton on Saturday.
Gabr made his loan move to the Hawthorns at the end of January, with only days remaining the winter transfer window, and finds himself linking up with international teammate Ahmed Hegazi at the heart of the Albion defence.
The news of his secured permit was released by the club on their official website, and Gabr has now linked up with his new teammates - who are currently in Spain, training at the HQ of Espanyol's second team.
Gabr joins Alan Pardew's men in their relegation fight from Giza-based club Zamalek, and has a pre-determined transfer fee written into his loan deal, should Pardew want to make the player's move to the Midlands permanent.
As it stands, West Brom are in a sticky situation, and look to have been cut adrift from the pack at the bottom of the Premier League table after a 3-0 humbling defeat against Chelsea on Monday night.
The club need all the help they can get at the moment, and Pardew will be praying that the introduction of Gabr can play a strong role in shoring up his leaky defence.
The bad news also continues for Baggies fans, with loan signing Daniel Sturridge hobbling off injured in the early stages of their tie with the league champions.
The Liverpool man was seen as having the potential to score the club away from trouble over the course of the rest of the season, but his injury problems continue to haunt the England international.


Author Topic: Should I call it quits?
So I've been dating my boyfriend now since April 2018. We are in a long distance relationship and make it work by visiting each other twice every two weeeks. We are only about 200 miles from each other so not so hard to see each other sometimes more often. He has a daughter from a previous relationship. His ex and him have been broken up now for 2 years. His daughter's mom is upset that he now has a new gf and even went as far as stalking me and him on social media. Once he set her straight about our relationship and her actions she changed her number and will not allow him to see/talk/visit his daughter. This has really been stressing him out. I can tell because he's been distant the past few days. Today we talked about it and he told me that he will reach out to her through email and try to compromise with her about seeing his daughter. He is going to make up a story that we broke up and asked me to unfollow him on social media so his story could seem more realistic bc she stalks our social media. He wanted to be transparent with me about the lengths he would go to be able to se their child. He reassured me that he did not want to be with her and loves and wants to be with me. He does plans to get joint custody but this is his temporary fix until court dates gets to rolling. I want to be there for him during such a stressful time in his life because I love him and his daughter but I also feel uneasy about the lies he will tell. Idk what I should do now?? Should we give each other space until everything cools down? He doesn't wants this but respects my decision. Idk what I should do? Any advice would help!
Re: Should I call it quits?
If it were me personally, I would not lie to anyone about my relationship, nor would I want someone else to lie about it.
Why on earth did he not have all of these custody arrangements made when they split up? That doesn't sound right.
I would just tell him that you're taking a break from him and his daughter for a while until he can sort out all of the custody arrangements.
They had an informal agreement that he would spend every other weekend with her which has been working for the past 2 years or so. I think her seeing him with another woman and moving on triggered some lingering pain and caused her to sever the relationship between them. I think space is my best option right now as well.
That's exactly why people need to have custody agreements in writing from a court. Otherwise, the primary custodian can cut off contact on a whim.

Owner of chemical sales firm arrested in explosions probe
QUAKERTOWN, Pa. — The owner of a home-based chemical sales company has been arrested in connection with a series of mysterious explosions the past three months in suburban Philadelphia, authorities said Thursday.
Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub said 30-year-old David Surman Jr. had been arrested on charges of weapons of mass destruction, reckless endangerment, possession of methamphetamines and other counts after search warrants were executed at his home and his business. Weintraub shared a picture during a news conference of an 18-inch bomb with four fuses that he said was ready to be detonated.

He declined to speculate how much damage it could have caused.
"What we have found are multiple explosive devices in this residence," he said pointing to a picture of the largest bomb. "This is what we believe to be a large bomb that was capable of mass destruction."
Federal agents earlier detonated a number of devices at one of the locations. Weintraub says the charges are related to the material seized Thursday, and investigators were sending materials to a lab in Quantico, Virginia to see if they could be forensically linked to nearly 30 explosions and seven confirmed blast sites over the last two months.
About three dozen explosions have been reported in Bucks County since early April, typically in the middle of the night. No one has been hurt.
Weintraub said the incidents had been linked to a person nicknamed the "mad Upper Bucks Bomber."
On June 14, a municipal worker on a ride-on mower was cutting grass along a road when he ran over something that exploded, leaving a 2-foot-deep (0.6-meter) crater.
Along with pictures of the devices and chemicals found Thursday, Weintraub showed photos of collages and drawings created by Surman. In one, created from cutout graphics and photos, he pasted his picture and his girlfriend's inside an SUV driving away from an explosion with a large cat and dog in the foreground. Another hand drawn note included a swastika, but Weintraub said he would not speculate whether Surman belonged to a hate group.
"These speak for themselves," he said.
Weintraub said the investigation involving the FBI and federal ATF agents is ongoing and more charges might be possible depending on whether forensics link the previous devices and explosions. He said none contained shrapnel that he was aware of.
Weintraub also said the girlfriend, whose name was withheld, was being co-operative and had not been charged.

St. Laurent can be seen, notebook and digital camera in tow, at Planning Board and Conservation Advisory Council gatherings, as well as at special meetings on fire departments, speeding and comprehensive plans.
What could motivate this seemingly normal man to submit himself to hours of political talk and legalese?
The answer is that Simon St. Laurent is leading the way to an understanding of how local blogging can reflect and enrich the life of a community. Day by day, and year by year, he's showing his fellow citizens that political blogging doesn't have to be bombastic and divisive. It can be a civil dialogue that informs and unites.
When you're doing local stuff, you can't stay anonymous for long. I think that has a major impact on the tone of things. The content has to be a lot more accurate because people will call you on it. Somehow the level of responsibility increases as the size of community decreases. It really changes the dynamics thoroughly.
Dealing with the threshold where people don't really trust what they read is something I worry about pretty consistently. My usual rule is that nobody should have to spit out their coffee when they're reading it. I have a neighbor up the hill who's a conservative Republican, and I count on him to tell me when I've gone too far. Having that kind of tight feedback loop makes it possible for me to write things that I know will appeal to a lot of people.

In Part 1: Managing Toxic Body Burden, we talked about where these toxins are lurking and in Part 2: How to Protect Yourself, we talked about steps you can take to protect you and your family from the most common exposures.
Now we dive into the 'why'. Why try to protect yourself?
Why worry about what's in our air, water, and food?
Why concern ourselves when toxins are everywhere and it seems there's little we can do about it?
Because being informed and taking the proper steps could save you from diseases known to be associated with environmental toxins.
This article is a short compilation of research and excerpts from experts that I have found to be profound and helpful for my own health.
Which Illnesses are Toxic Chemicals Connected to?
"Toxic body burden, or having a high load of these toxic chemicals are linked to cancer, respiratory diseases (asthma), neurological diseases (Parkinson disease and multiple sclerosis), endocrine problems (thyroid), diabetes, and obesity.
"There does appear to be links between environmental toxins and glandular health. Many environmental toxins are endocrine disruptors to name a few phthalates, parabens and BPA which are found in personal beauty products, cleaning products, fragrance and plastics."
And According to Alternative-Doctor.com, Toxic Body Burden has been linked to: heart disease (the #1 killer in the world), cancer (the #2 killer in the world), autoimmune disease, metabolic syndrome, neurodegenerative diseases, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, autism, behavioral disorders, allergies, and severe hormone imbalance.
According to Anthony William, Best Selling Author of Medical Medium: Secrets Behind Chronic and Mystery Illness & How to Finally Heal says that chemical sensitivies, MCS, and environmental illnesses can be the result of a bogged down liver in part due to environmental toxins.
Which Illnesses are Heavy Metals Connected to?
"Many metals are used in the body as essential components of enzymes and other biological molecules. These metals are required in trace amounts, but when present in larger quantities, they can cause severe toxicity by impairing the immune system, impacting hormonal function and disturbing other important biological processes." Antonio Jimenez, M.D., N.D., C.N.C. via Hope4Cancer.org.
According to Anthony William, heavy metals are involved in conditions such as Alzheimers, seizures, depression, anxiety, ADHD, autism, and even obsessive compulsive disorder. This is because heavy metals in the brain dirupt neurotransmitters.
How Many Chemicals are Lurking in our bodies and in What Amounts?
Body Burden: Findings and Recommendations from the EWG tested 9 individuals for chemical toxins that are linked to cause cancer, autoimmune disease, birth defects, autism & ADHD.
77 chemicals toxic to the immune system (average of 53)."
From the same EWG article, "Toxic effects do not require high doses.
"Hundreds of studies in the peer-reviewed literature show that adverse health effects from low dose exposures are occurring in the population, caused by unavoidable contamination with PCBs, DDT, dioxin, mercury, lead, toxic air pollutants, and other chemicals.
"The health effects scientists have linked to chemical exposures in the general population include premature death, asthma, cancer, chronic bronchitis, permanent decrements in IQ and declines in other measures of brain function, premature birth, respiratory tract infection, heart disease, and permanent decrements in lung capacity.
(EPA 1996, EPA 2000, Gauderman, et al. 2002, Jacobson and Jacobson 2002, Jacobson, et al. 2002, Kopp, et al. 2000, Longnecker, et al. 2001, NAS 2000, NTP 2002, Pope, et al. 2002, Salonen, et al. 1995, Sydbom, et al. 2001)."
Directly from the Environmental Working Group Body Burden: Findings and Recommendations. Check out the full article for more information.
It's safe to say that these chemicals and metals all around our environment are a big contributor to disease and chronic illness, but, that doesn't mean we're powerless against them. By knowing where they're coming from (see Part 1: Sources of Contamination) and steps to take to avoid them (see Part 2: How to Protect Yourself) we can arm ourselves against chronic illness.
In Part 4 of Toxic Body Burden: How to Cleanse, we finally discuss how to safely cleanse and detox!
If this is a bit overwhelming to you, I am availble for consultations and I am always happy to help! Work with me.

What it takes to be a true transformational CIO
6 soft skills IT needs to succeed in the digital era
7 skills of successful digital leaders
How to build the next generation of IT leaders
6 practices of influential IT leaders
In an era of continual business transformation, influence is a key leadership skill to lean on —one that must be developed and honed for success.
By Mary K. Pratt
Contributing Writer, CIO | PT
CIOs need to sway opinions and build consensus if they want to get work done, whether it's for a tactical technology implementation or a multimillion-dollar transformational project.
In fact, CIOs list influence as one of the most important leadership skills needed to succeed, now and more so in the future, according to Deloitte's 2018 Global CIO Survey, as 48 percent of 1,437 CIOs identified influencing others as among the top five must-have leadership skills over the next three years.

The ability to influence is not something that comes naturally to most, however, according to CIOs, management consultants and leadership experts. Instead, they say it's something that's developed and practiced.
"It's something that leaders spend time cultivating, just like they learn how to make presentations or build out a network. I've seen leading CIOs make it a priority," says Ron Lefferts, managing director and global leader of the technology consulting practice at management consulting company Protiviti.

Fluoroquinolones are dangerous and can lead to a medical malpractice action
Published: Wednesday, 01 May 2019 13:17
FDA Warns of Aortic Aneurysm Risk With Fluoroquinolones.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning today that fluoroquinolone use can increase the risk of aortic aneurysm.
The agency is urging healthcare providers to avoid prescribing the powerful antibiotics to patients with or at risk for an aortic aneurysm, such as those with peripheral atherosclerotic vascular disease, hypertension, certain genetic conditions such as Marfan syndrome and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and the elderly.
"Although the risk of aortic aneurysm or dissection is low, we've observed that patients are twice as likely to experience an aortic aneurysm or dissection when prescribed a fluoroquinolone drug," FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb, MD, said in the Drug Safety Communication.
"For patients who have an aortic aneurysm or are known to be at risk of an aortic aneurysm, we do not believe the benefits outweigh this risk, and alternative treatment should be considered."
The FDA reviewed adverse event reports and four recently published observational studies showing an increased risk of aortic aneurysm or dissection associated with fluoroquinolone use, which can lead to dangerous bleeding or even death.
The underlying reason for this increased risk cannot be determined, the statement notes. The background risk of aortic aneurysm also can vary depending on the population — from nine events/100,000 people/year in the general population to 300 events/100,000 people/year in the highest-risk individuals.
Patients are encouraged to talk with their healthcare provider before stopping use of a prescribed fluoroquinolone and to reserve these drugs for only life-threatening bacterial infections, appropriate to their risk profile.
"For some patients, the benefits of fluoroquinolones may continue to outweigh the risks for treatment of serious bacterial infections, such as pneumonia or intra-abdominal infections, but there are other serious, known risks associated with these strong antibiotics that must be carefully weighed when considering their use," Gottlieb said.
The FDA has issued several prior safety communications about fluoroquinolone use, including in July 2018 (significant decreases in blood sugar and certain mental health side effects), July 2016 (disabling side effects of the tendons, muscles, joints, nerves, and central nervous system), May 2016 (restrict use for certain uncomplicated infections), August 2013 (peripheral neuropathy), and July 2008 (tendinitis and tendon rupture).

Gallagher's theorem is a sharpening and extension of the Littlewood conjecture that holds for almost all tuples of real numbers. This talk is about joint work with Sam Chow where we provide a fibre refinement, solving a problem posed by Beresnevich, Haynes and Velani in 2015. Hitherto, this was only known in the plane, as previous approaches relied heavily on the theory of continued fractions. Using reduced successive minima in lieu of continued fractions, we develop the structural theory of Bohr sets of arbitrary rank, in the context of diophantine approximation.

Celtics beat Nets, 110-91, to end 3-game losing streak
Evan Turner has a triple-double as Boston moves back into playoff position.
By BRIAN MAHONEYThe Associated Press
NEW YORK — Evan Turner had 19 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds, and the Boston Celtics beat the Brooklyn Nets 110-91 on Monday night to snap a three-game losing streak that had dropped them out of playoff position.
Avery Bradley scored 20 points to lead the Celtics, who entered a half-game behind Charlotte for the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference – and went right back into the final playoff spot when the Hornets lost in Chicago.

WHO: Miami Heat at Boston Celtics
WHEN: 7:30 p.m. Wednesday
TELEVISION: CSN
Tyler Zeller and Kelly Olynyk each had 18 points for Boston, which bounced back from a 105-97 overtime loss to Detroit at home on Sunday. Coach Brad Stevens said he felt his players tightened up in that game, but they had a mostly stress-free second half Monday after quickly pulling away in the third quarter.
Brook Lopez scored 31 points for the Nets, who had won two in a row to give themselves renewed playoff hopes. But they endured bad nights all over the roster, from Joe Johnson (3 for 11) to Jarrett Jack (1 for 9) to Alan Anderson (2 for 9).
Boston claimed the tiebreaker by winning the season series, 3-1 and moves on to another important game Wednesday at home against Miami. The Nets head to Charlotte and probably welcome another key game on the road after falling to 12-20 in their home arena.
Boston scored nine straight to open a 71-57 cushion midway through the third quarter, and when the Nets trimmed it to five, the Celtics responded by pushing it back to double digits in the final minute of the period before taking an 83-74 lead into the fourth.
Zeller made all five shots for 10 points in 10 minutes of the third quarter, then Olynyk scored seven straight early in the fourth to give the Celtics their largest lead at 96-80 with 8:19 to play.
Marcus Smart was back for Boston after being suspended one game for punching San Antonio's Matt Bonner in the groin, which Stevens called an "unacceptable play." Smart started but was replaced by Jae Crowder to open the third quarter.
Deron Williams had 10 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds for the Nets.


The kitchen is the centrepiece of your home. If you plan to sell your home, it is one of the things potential buyers ask to look at before tabling an offer for your home. Whether or not your house is on the market, you need your kitchen always looking spectacular and inviting. Here are some of the easiest ways to revamp your kitchen space, fix the little flaws, and give it a new look without putting too much effort into it.
A complete overhaul may not always be the best option for you when trying to repair your kitchen cabinets. Instead, consider giving it a new shade to brighten things up a bit while you save more resources and prepare for a future overhaul.
Replacing existing cupboard doors with glass-panelled ones is one of the most worthwhile upgrades you can do for your kitchen. You may also go for the cheaper and more daring option of ditching the doors altogether. The latter option not only makes your kitchen look less cramped but also helps you add a little interest to the entire space by displaying your favourite bowls and dishes.
Changing the look of your cabinet is considered one of the easiest and quickest ways to give your kitchen a facelift. Handles and pulls, on the other hand, may look like trivial details of your cabinet when their aesthetic addition is actually significant. Look for shiny or colourful options but avoid getting something too cutesy or personal. Since you are changing both the door and handles or pulls at the same, it can be easy to identify a perfect colour combination before making a buy.
If you fancy the idea of displaying your dishes but do not want to ditch the cabinet doors, consider replacing them with glass. Glass panels on your cabinets are an aesthetic enhancement as well and can save you more than 50 percent of what it would have cost you to replace them with actual doors.
New drapery can perk up your space and massively alter the look and feel of your home. You only need to be careful with material and color choice if you are to retain or improve the aesthetic appeal of your kitchen. Above sinks, consider short draperies with less fabric to prevent water-damage and discoloration.
Countertops are a dominant feature in the kitchen whose aesthetics can make or break your kitchen's look. You can obtain a laminate surface at a few hundred dollars. Ensure the color you choose aligns with what is on the cabinets to avoid clashing such two dominant colors.
Depending on your budget, you can decide to do something about your lighting and flooring as well. By smoothing the little scratches and chips on the tile and installing new lighting, you will be giving your kitchen a fresh look without necessarily breaking the bank for it.

Glass milk bottles are back at select Farm Fresh stores in Southern Illinois
An Oberweis Dairy delivery man unloads the company's first shipment of half-gallon glass milk bottles to the Farm Fresh of Carterville store on Wednesday morning.
Back by popular demand: Glass milk bottles at select Farm Fresh stores.
Several independently owned Farm Fresh stores have inked deals with Oberweis Dairy to carry on the years-old Southern Illinois tradition. This development comes after Chester Dairy, long the supplier of milk in iconic half-gallon glass bottles under the Farm Fresh label, closed its dairy operation last month.
Chester Dairy to close, Farm Fresh stores expected to stay open
ISAAC SMITH The Southern
Oberweis Dairy, based in North Aurora, began offering its glass bottle milk products this week at Farm Fresh stores in Carterville, Du Quoin and Murphysboro in Southern Illinois, and in the Metro East locations of Belleville, Bethalto, Granite City, Alton and East Alton, according to Andy Trefonas, Oberweis Dairy's vice president of retail sales.
These new sales agreements mark Oberweis' first foray into the Southern Illinois market. The timing made sense with the opportunity that opened up as Chester Dairy's dairy operation closed, Trefonas said.
"We heard about the stores, and Chester Dairy, and that part of the state of Illinois seems to have a lot of customers that like milk in glass bottles," he said. "We're happy to serve those customers."
The Farm Fresh stores under the ownership of Chester Dairy (those in Anna, Centralia, Benton, Harrisburg, Herrin and West Frankfort) are not part of the sales agreements with Oberweis Dairy; only those stores that are independently owned are offering Oberweis products.
All of the Farm Fresh stores are continuing to offer milk under the Farm Fresh label, though it is now supplied by Prairie Farms Dairy. The Farm Fresh label milk is no longer available in a glass bottle. Rather, its half-gallon products are packaged in a clear plastic jug that is shaped similarly to the glass ones. They are not returnable but are recyclable. The stores also carry Prairie Farms Dairy milk and other products under the Prairie Farms label.
Chester Dairy's decision to cease its dairy operation was met with disappointment throughout the region. The company's roots date back to 1932, and it was truly a local operation. The dairy farm's products stayed within a 100-mile radius to ensure freshness.
The half-gallon glass milk bottles, a relic of the past, helped make the milk-and-bread stores a unique part of the fabric of Southern Illinois' small towns. Customers paid a $1 deposit for the bottle, and that same amount was deducted from their bill each time they returned a bottle and made a new milk or juice purchase.
Dave Armstrong, who took over as owner of the Carterville Farm Fresh store in October 2018, said that it is always difficult when a local business closes, especially one to which people have such nostalgic ties.
"We knew that a lot of our customers were pretty upset about losing the glass bottles," he said. "With this change, I felt like we were losing something that was meaningful to people — the milk in glass was meaningful."
Armstrong said that's why he sought out alternatives for glass bottle milk products when Chester Dairy announced its closure, and the end of glass bottle delivery. Oberweis Dairy offers several different options, and Armstrong said he chose its organic milk line. It is an option for people who want "the most premium milk they can get in Southern Illinois," he said. He also chose to add several flavors of Oberweis Dairy ice cream to store shelves. Armstrong noted his store continues to offer the Farm Fresh label milk by Prairie Farms and said it's also a quality milk product.
Farm Fresh store is still 'part of the beating heart of Carterville'
LES O'DELL For The Southern
But the enthusiasm for glass bottles is evident.
When the Du Quoin Farm Fresh, owned by Mike Patel, announced its business agreement with Oberweis Dairy for glass bottled milk to its Facebook page this week, the post received nearly 350 likes, shares and comments. "Great news!" one person wrote; "Praise God!!" said another. "A lot of people ask about the glass bottles," Patel said. As of this week, his store is selling regular and chocolate Oberweis Dairy milk in glass bottles.
Trefonas said the company has been packaging milk in glass bottles for 93 years. "Milk is always going to taste better, colder and fresher in a glass bottle," he said. People who are environmentally conscious appreciate that the bottles are cleaned and reused multiple times before they are recycled, and "there's a nostalgia piece to it" that makes it a popular option, he said.
Trefonas said nine other grocers in the Southern Illinois and Metro East market have begun carrying its dairy products, in addition to the Farm Fresh stores. They are: Country Mart in Freeburg; Gateway Market in East St. Louis; Hansen Meat Co. in Jerseyville and Alton; Red Bud IGA; Joe's Market Basket in Edwardsville; Myers Korner Market in Prairie du Rocher; Rozier's County Market in Chester and Tom's Supermarket in Mascoutah.
The glass bottle charge for Oberweis Dairy products is $1.50; the same amount is discounted from a new purchase with each bottle that is returned. Oberweis Dairy's milk is produced at farms in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin.

Q: Exestence of Analytic function on unit disk $f(1/2)=3/4$ and $f'(1/2)=2/3$ Does there exist an analytic function ? $$f:A \rightarrow A$$
Such that $$f(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{3}{4}$$
And $$f'(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{2}{3}$$
Where $ A=\{z : |z| <1\}$.
I think that the answer is No since$|f(1/2)|=3/4$ and $3/4 >1/2$

It's Week 2 of the One Room Challenge! Now that I have the design concept, it is time for the more crucial step of the process: the furniture layout. Before we start ANY shopping, it is important to have a floorplan completed. Why is this so important? If you start shopping for furniture without a plan, you will end up with furniture that doesn't fit and many returns.
Do you struggle with pulling the trigger when it comes to making decisions? Well then, this post is for you! Today, I'll be sharing my tips on how you can start feeling confident in making big home decisions. Tell me if this sounds familiar, you spent countless hours pinning inspiration, shopping online, and visiting stores, yet your not quite ready to pull the trigger on purchasing. Or maybe your situation is more time-sensitive. Your knee deep in decision making and your contractor is calling you to find out if you finally picked out your tile material yet.
Whether you have a contractor hounding you for an answer or if you are on your own time schedule, there is something holding you back from making a final decision.
