EVERT'S ROUGHING IT IN PURSUIT OF GOLD
SEOUL, South Korea — She ties her shoes and grabs her tennis racket. She squeezes in the elevator behind two fencers and an East German handball player.
Chris Evert.
Olympian.
She walks among swimmers and Greco-Roman wrestlers. She waits behind cyclists and discus throwers. She asks the cafeteria lady to hold the gravy on those potatoes, thank you.
She wears an ID card around her neck. She goes through the security gate. She lives in a dormitory-style room and when she bumps into three Bulgarian weight lifters she says excuse me, and they ask for her autograph.
God, I hope a camera is getting this down.
"What's been the biggest difference between life as an Olympian and life on the pro tennis circuit?" someone asks.
"Well, I guess you could say we're a little spoiled," she admits, crinkling her nose. "We're used to room service and fancy hotel suites. Like here, when we left the village, we didn't have a car waiting for us. We had had to take taxis."
"Did the driver recognize you?"
"No," she says, "we had to pay!"
She is the most famous face at the Olympic Games, a millionaire grown-up who has returned to play in the amateur sandbox. She mingles with gymnasts, she laughs with pole vaulters, she dabbles in formalities with the occasional Nigerian judo man. Chris Evert? Is that really her? On the Olympic team?
"This is a lot of fun. Everybody's equal, nobody's better, we're not put on a pedestal . . . Of course, I wouldn't want to do this all year…"
It really is.
Without extras she is still Chrissie For two weeks she is without agents and without limos and without a paycheck. For two weeks she cannot wear her usual tennis clothes, for which companies pay her enormous sums of money. For two weeks she is just another badge number at the Olympic village, just another cafeteria tray — although she's probably earned $8 million more than the person behind her.
But she is still Chrissie. Regal and charming and in it but somehow above it all. The cameras will follow her at all times here, the way they follow Princess Di or Nancy Reagan on a foreign visit. The tennis team press conference was announced: "Chris Evert and others" and although Tim Mayotte and Pam Shriver and Brad Gilbert were there, nearly all the questions were for the woman with the frosty blond hair. At the Opening Ceremonies, she was mobbed — by other athletes: Japan, Nepal, Brazil, Tanzania. Let's face it. Having Chris Evert in your Olympics is like having Magic Johnson in your neighborhood basketball game.
"I have to admit, I had some reservations when I heard they were opening Olympic tennis to professionals. We have our big events, like Wimbledon and the U.S. Open. We have our shows.
"But when I got here and took part in the Opening Ceremonies and saw the tennis facilities — well, I think Olympic tennis can be as big or bigger than a Grand Slam event one day. I really do."
Click, click. Flash, flash. She smiles and we lap it up. She is not the favorite. She probably won't win. But almost nobody asks about medals. The normal questions are out. The special questions are in.
"How's your room, Chrissie?"
"Comfortable," she says. "Not luxurious. . ." Living a dream late in her career She is living our dream. Isn't she? A chance at the Olympics in the twilight of your professional career? Wouldn't you grab that? Wouldn't you run out and buy the sneakers and the sweat suit and the stopwatch? At 33, Evert figured her Olympic dreams were about 25 years and a different sport too late. And then tennis was reinserted as a medal event, and opened to the pros.
Some big names said no. Some big names said OK — Edberg and Graf and Sabatini. Evert, who agreed at the last minute was the biggest name of all.
"I think being in the Olympics and holding up that gold medal would be as big a thrill as holding up the Wimbledon plate.
"You know, in tennis we lead a sort of selfish lifestyle. We can get pretty isolated. I'm getting a kick out of mixing with all these other athletes. I've never mixed with anybody."
She laughs. We laugh. She is the queen and she has come to play for her country. She has won Wimbledon, the French, the Australian, the U.S. Open, she has made commercials and done TV and played everywhere for millions of dollars.
And now, she is here, hitting ground strokes in the Olympic stadium. She waves to the Russian volleyball team. She boards the bus with Hungarian gymnasts. She glides across this onetime amateur soil and crowds form and flashbulbs burst and you can almost hear the trumpets that have lured her to Camelot. Something has changed here. Either she has or we have or the Games have. Something.
"When's her first match?" a photographer was asked.
"Who cares?" he said and kept on snapping.

Premises liability claims often arise because a property owner breached their duty of care. If this breach is the proximate cause of harm to a visitor, then the property owner may be responsible for a premises liability claim. That being said, a property owner's required duty of care can change based on the type of visitor in question.
Under Maryland personal injury law, there are typically four different types of visitors for the purposes of premises liability claims — Invitees, Licensees, Bare Licensees and Trespassers.
Invitees are visitors who have an implicit or explicit invitation to enter a property. One common example of an invitee is a customer who visits an open business, such as a grocery store or pharmacy. Another common example of an invitee is a person who visits a park or other facility open to the public.
Property owners must exercise "reasonable and ordinary care" when accommodating invitees. Furthermore, property owners must alert invitees of any dangerous conditions on the property, especially conditions that would be difficult to uncover otherwise.
If the property owner does not act with reasonable or ordinary care — and an invitee suffers harm as a proximate result — then a premises liability claim could be appropriate.
Licensees are visitors who are normally guests of the property owner. Licensees generally have an explicit invitation to enter the property. The most common example of a licensee is a friend or family member who comes over for dinner.
Property owners must exercise "reasonable care" when accommodating licensees. Additionally, property owners must warn licensees of latent dangers on the property, particularly dangers that could be tough to notice and avoid.
If the property owner does not act with reasonable care — and a licensee is injured as a direct result — then the owner may face a premises liability claim.
Bare licensees are visitors who are present for their own personal gain. Bare licensees have an explicit invitation to enter the premises, with specific limitations. A common example of a bare licensee is a door-to-door salesperson who gains entry only to complete their sales pitch.
Bare licensees do not enjoy a heightened duty of care from property owners. Though property owners must not engage in "willful or wanton misconduct" with regard to bare licensees. And as with invitees and licensees, property owners must warn bare licensees of any known dangers on the property.
Trespassers intentionally enter a property without authorization from the owner. A common example of a trespasser is a burglar who breaks into another person's home.
Property owners do not owe any duty of care to trespassers. Though as with bare licensees, property owners must not engage in "willful or wanton misconduct" with regard to trespassers.
If you are considering a premises liability claim against a Maryland property owner, it can be extremely beneficial to speak with a proficient personal injury attorney. The attorneys at Iamele & Iamele, LLP in Baltimore, Maryland, have proven success in the field of personal injury law, including premises liability.

Labels: Labour, Owen Smith
Owen Smith's father is a professor of history, and Owen himself should have some knowledge of the subject as his degree was in history and French. But sadly, he seems to have consigned it all to the dustbin and moved into the business of rewriting it instead.
On Thursday he told David Williamson of the Western Mail that,
"The Labour party championed the cause of devolution for over a century, and we delivered it for Wales and Scotland ... "
Wales Online, 21 March 2013
Who is he trying to fool? If you champion something, you would have taken steps to implement it when you were in a position to do so.
Did the Labour Party implement devolution when Ramsey Macdonald became Prime Minister in 1924 or in 1929? No. Did Clement Attlee's government implement it in 1945? No, and it refused to even contemplate having a Welsh Secretary and Welsh Office although Scotland had had both since 1885.
That wasn't rectified until Harold Wilson came to power in 1964. But if this counts as "delivering devolution" then Owen Smith would have to give the credit for delivering it to Scotland to Gladstone, rather than a Labour Party that didn't even exist at the time.
It was only when Gwynfor Evans won Carmarthen for Plaid in 1966 and Winnie Ewing won Hamilton for the SNP in 1967 that Labour began to take devolution seriously. Their response was to set up the Crowther/Kilbrandon Commission, which finally reported in 1973. Labour would have much preferred to leave devolution in the long grass, but the Wilson government of 1974 and Callaghan government of 1976 could only survive with support from other parties, and pressing forward with devolution to Scotland and Wales was part of the price for Plaid Cymru and SNP support. However process was sabotaged by Labour MPs at every step along the way, and the Wales and Scotland Acts of 1978 bore very little resemblance to what Kilbrandon had recommended. It was therefore hardly surprising that they didn't receive enough support in the referendums of 1979.
There was obviously no chance of Labour embracing devolution while Neil Kinnock was leader of the Labour Party (not that it matters, because there was no chance of Labour being elected while he was leader) and therefore it was only when John Smith became leader in 1992 that devolution for Wales and Scotland can be said to have become mainstream Labour policy.
Surely it was the decades of lobbying from the Scottish that led to the Council of Europe forcing devolution onto the UK. If the Tories had won in 97 then they would have delivered devolution to us and not Labour.

Q: System of differential equations $dx=\frac{dy}{y+z}=\frac{dz}{x+y+z}$ This is the first time I have seen system of differential equations in this form: $$dx=\frac{dy}{y+z}=\frac{dz}{x+y+z}$$
Can you please help me solve it because I don't even know where to start?

A: So you have a system of two equations: $$\left\{
\begin{array}{c}dx(y+z)=dy \\ dx(x+y+z)=dz \end{array}
\right.$$ Try to separate variables and integrate to find a general solution. For example, from the first equation we get $ydx+zdx=dy$, from the secod one we get $xdx+ydx+zdx=dz$, substituting $ydx+zdx$ with $dy$ we get $xdx+dy=dz$. This equation can be integrated to get $\frac{x^2}{2}+y+c=z$. Now you can substitute $z$ in the first equation and solve it.

A: $$\frac{dx}{1}=\frac{dy}{y+z}=\frac{dz}{x+y+z}$$
This system looks like to be involved in solving a PDE with the method of characteristics. The PDE should be :
$$\frac{\partial z(x,y)}{\partial x}+(y+z(x,y))\frac{\partial z(x,y)}{\partial y}=x+y+z(x,y)$$
$\underline{\text{If this supposition is true}}$,
unfortunately the boundary conditions are missing in the wording of the question.
$$\frac{dy}{y+z}=\frac{dz}{x+y+z}=\frac{dz-dy}{(x+y+z)-(y+z)}=\frac{dz-dy}{x}$$
A first family of characteristics comes from $\quad \frac{dx}{1}=\frac{dz-dy}{x} \quad\to\quad z-y-\frac{x^2}{2}=c_1$
A second family of characteristics comes from $\quad \frac{dx}{1}=\frac{dy}{y+z}=\frac{dy}{y+(y+\frac{x^2}{2}+c_1)}=\frac{dy}{2y+\frac{x^2}{2}+c_1}$
$\frac{dy}{dx}=2y+\frac{x^2}{2}+c_1 \quad\to\quad y=-\frac{c_1}{2}-\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{8}+c_2e^{2x}$
$y+\frac{z-y-\frac{x^2}{2}}{2}+\frac{x^2}{4}+\frac{x}{4}+\frac{1}{8}=c_2e^{2x} \quad\to\quad (4z+4y+2x+1)e^{-2x}=8c_2$
The general solution of the PDE is expressed on the form of an implicit equation :
$$\Phi\left((2z-2y-x^2)\:,\:(4z+4y+2x+1)e^{-2x} \right)=0$$
where $\Phi$ is any function of two variables (to be determined according to some boundary conditions).
$\underline{\text{If the above supposition is false}}$ :
Then, $z$ is function of $x$ only, that is $z(x)$ instead of $z(x,y)$.
The system becomes :
$$1=\frac{y'}{y+z}=\frac{z'}{x+y+z}$$
Following the same calculus, the result is :
$z(x)=y+\frac{x^2}{2}+c_1$
$ y(x)=-\frac{c_1}{2}-\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{8}+c_2e^{2x}$
$$\begin{cases}
y(x)=-\frac{c_1}{2}-\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{8}+c_2e^{2x} \\
z(x)=\frac{c_1}{2}+\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{8}+c_2e^{2x}
\end{cases}$$

Global Expression report shows three of every four people are experiencing deterioration in freedom of expression
"Global Expression Report", 02 Dec 2019
The Global Expression Report summarises major developments in freedom of expression around the world. Based on...data from 161 countries covering 2018, and a backward glance from 2019 the... report... details the factors that contribute to the health (or otherwise) of freedom of expression globally...Too many countries are encouraging a downward trend in the rights of their own people. The data translates into a bald fact, that three of every four people on the planet are experiencing a deteriorating environment for freedom of expression. We extrapolate from these figures that 5.5 billion people are living in countries where a vitally important human right is being increasingly restricted. Statistics are often hard to digest, but they need to remind ourselves: In 2018, 99 journalists were killed – 21 more than in 2017. Global impunity rates for these crimes continue to soar, at over 95%. At the end of 2018, more than 250 journalists were in prison – also up from the year before. 321 human rights defenders were also killed – up nine from 2017. We see worldwide the two inter-linked freedoms, of expression and access to information, are subject to a range of sustained globalised forces. We see that tactics aimed at suppression are multiform, and while old strategies remain effective (such as silencing of journalists), new tactics are added to the armoury every year...

3 Austin Documentaries You Should See During SXSW Film
March 10, 2016 by Kelli McDonald Leave a Comment
Austinites have to share their city during SXSW, so it only seems fair that a few featured documentary films would highlight Austin's intriguing history with new information for both natives and newcomers to learn.
"A Song For You: The Austin City Limits Story," "Honky Tonk Heaven: Legend of the Broken Spoke," and "Tower" make their debut during the 30th SXSW Music, Film and Interactive Conferences and Festivals. Each film aims to skillfully investigate significant happenings in our city.
On the Broken Spoke Dance Floor

The Broken Spoke has remained a true Texas institution for 50 years. "Honky Tonk Heaven: Legend of the Broken Spoke" looks at the history of the iconic South Lamar music venue/dancehall and digs into the details of maintaining a family business in an ever-changing city. Interviewees in the film include Willie Nelson, Jerry Jeff Walker, Dale Watson, James Hand, Jesse Dayton, the Waco Brothers and Alvin Crow.

"Honky Tonk Heaven: Legend of the Broken Spoke" premieres on March 13, 2016 at 1:30 p.m. at the South Lamar Drafthouse. Three additional screenings are planned for Marchesa, Topfer Theatre at Zach and the South Lamar Drafthouse. Details can be found here. You can also send in your own story about The Broken Spoke on their website.
Like most official SXSW events, priority will be given to badges and then wristbands. If any seats are still available, tickets will be available for purchase.
Inside Austin City Limits

"A Song For You: The Austin City Limits Story" allows viewers to discover what it's like to curate incredible performances on public television for 40 years. To only scratch the surface of the documentary's content, this film takes a peek at performances by Willie Nelson, Wilco and Radiohead, with interviews from Dave Grohl, Sheryl Crow, Dale Watson, Gary Clark Jr., Emmylou Harris, Jim James and Jenny Lewis.
Director Keith Maitland says, "I've snuck backstage at nearly every concert I've attended since I was 15 years old, and it was in the spirit of that kind of 'backstage pass' that I wanted to approach 'A Song for You.'"
"A Song For You: The Austin City Limits Story" debuts on March 17 at 2:30 p.m. at Paramount Theater. This screening will be followed by a Q&A with Maitland and will include special guests. An additional screening is set for March 19 at 4:15 p.m. at Topfer Theatre at Zach. Check out the film's website for more information on when the documentary is due for wide release.
At the Top of UT's Tower
UT's Tower (Credit: Tower)
Maitland's fascination with Austin's past spills over into another documentary debuting at SXSW Film 2016, called "Tower." This film tells the stories of the witnesses, heroes and survivors of the 1966 sniper attack from the top of The University of Texas at Austin tower. By using footage and rotoscopic animation, "Tower" creates a unique and harrowing look at "when the worst in one man brought out the best in so many others." The run time of the film is the exact length of time the shooter held the campus hostage.
Striking rotoscopic animation (Credit: Tower)
"Tower" premieres on March 13 at 11 a.m. at Stateside Theatre. Information on two additional showings at the Rollins Theatre at the Long Center and Paramount Theatre can be found here. Check the official website for more information on screenings, the film team and images.
Austin in the Limelight of SXSW Film
"Tower," "A Song For You: The Austin City Limits Story" and "Honky Tonk Heaven: Legend of the Broken Spoke" remind us how historically rich our city is. It's no mystery why we have to share our city every once in a while.

One Child, One Classroom – the Lifelong Cost of Malnutrition
May 28, 2020 | Chicago Council on Global Affairs
Roger Thurow

Learn more about Hagirso's story and the importance of nutrition through an interactive slideshow here.
Boricha, Ethiopia — The fourth-grade classroom packed with more than 60 students is buzzing with ambition. The teacher has asked an adventurous question: What would they like to be one day?
A girl in the back raises her hand. "I would like to be a nurse, and help people," she says.
"A doctor," says a boy leaping to his feet.
"A teacher," proclaims a voice in the front. "Or a businessman."
These are universal dreams that float in every fourth-grade classroom in the world. But something is different here in the Shemena Godo Primary School, as revealed by a follow-up question: How old are you?
The answers: 18, 18, 21.
This is a classroom of a stunted generation. About half of the students were small children when famine stalked the country back in 2003. It was the first great hunger crisis of the 21st Century; 14 million people were on the doorstep of starvation. For the children, severe malnutrition in their early formative years resulted in stunted bodies and brains. And stunted ambitions. It is highly unlikely that any of them, just now learning simple math and struggling to read as teenagers and young adults, will achieve their hopes of professional careers helping people.
This is a classroom that also projects a glimpse into the future as another catastrophe spreads, stalking the entire world this time. The Covid-19 health pandemic has swiftly become a food and hunger crisis that threatens millions of children with malnutrition as sure as any famine. Vital school feeding programs have been interrupted. Food supply chains have been severed. Families with lost employment can't afford food even if it is available. A new generation of malnourished children will carry the impact of the pandemic far into the future, long past the discovery of a vaccine or cure.
Malnutrition and stunting have been a largely hidden, and neglected, disaster. The Global Nutrition Report published last week by an independent group of nutrition, public health and development experts estimated that about 22 percent of all children under five years old in our world today are stunted from malnutrition. That comes to about 149 million children. About 50 million suffer from wasting, or severe underweight, which is more than 7 percent of all children under five. And those awful numbers were compiled before the World Food Program and other United Nations agencies warned that more than 250 million people could face acute hunger if the pandemic sweeps through the developing world as it has through richer countries.
Stunting, which compromises a person's cognitive development, physical growth and immune system, is a life sentence of underachievement. For stunted children become stunted adults. The cost is paid by all of us, as the impact of stunting ripples from the individual to the family to the community and, finally, to the world as a whole. The Ethiopian government, in a report compiled several years ago when its national stunting rate hovered near 50 percent, estimated the cumulative cost of malnutrition to be about 16 percent of its gross domestic product (GDP) annually. The World Bank calculated that sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia each lose about 11 percent of GDP annually. It put the global cost at about $3.5 trillion a year in lower education, diminished workplace productivity and higher health care expenses. In our global economy, a stunted child anywhere becomes a stunted child everywhere.
But the greatest cost can't be measured. It is a poem not written, an innovation not nurtured, a horizon not explored, a cure not discovered. What might a person have accomplished were she or he not stunted? A lost chance of greatness for one child is a lost chance for us all.
In this fourth-grade classroom in Ethiopia's Sidama region, I'm most interested in the progress of one student in particular: Hagirso, the 21-year-old in the first row. I first met him in an emergency feeding tent during the famine of 2003. He was five years old and weighed just 27 pounds. He was receiving therapeutic feeding treatment and slowly beginning to improve. But the doctors and humanitarian workers were worried that he wouldn't survive, so severe was the malnutrition shock.

Hagirso did survive, as I learned five years later when I returned to the scene of the great hunger. But he clearly wasn't thriving. He was now 10, but noticeably smaller than even younger children. And he wasn't in school. "He isn't able for it," his father, Tesfaye, a smallholder farmer, told me.
I returned after another five years and this time found Hagirso in school, smiling broadly. At 15, he was in the first grade, beginning to learn the alphabet.
In December 2019, I returned again to Boricha. Hagirso is now a young adult and one of the oldest in his fourth-grade class. In the past six years he had advanced only three grades in school. This is typical of stunted children, who often repeat classes, learn less while in school, and drop out earlier, according to a study in Guatemala that has been measuring the impact of malnutrition on a cohort of children since the 1970s. In the workplace, they earn 20-40 percent less. And they are more susceptible to chronic diseases as adults.
At home, on a small plot of land, Hagirso helps his father raise their crops of maize, potatoes and kale and tend to the family's cow and calf. He also helps out regularly on community tree-planting and rain-harvesting efforts. He shares the ambitions of his classmates; he says he'd like to be a doctor, "like those who helped me." Or maybe a teacher or businessman or government clerk – any profession, he says, that would take him away from his little rural village. At the moment, though, he is struggling to master reading, writing and multiplication. At 21.
"I want to keep learning," he says. "I'll stay in school as long as I can."
For decades, nutrition was sorely neglected in international development, receiving less than 1 percent of all international aid spending. In recent years, though, as data on the costs of childhood malnutrition accumulated, nutrition has moved higher up the global agenda. In 2016, the United Nations declared a Decade of Nutrition to push for greater investment. Maternal and child nutrition programs proliferated, particularly ones targeting the first 1,000 days from conception through the second birthday.
Ethiopia, in particular, prioritized improving nutrition and reducing stunting. And it began posting impressive results, with stunting rates falling from 58 percent in 2000 to 38 percent by 2016. In recent years, progress has plateaued, with the rate now stubbornly at about 37 percent. Global efforts have followed the same trend: total numbers of stunted children have dropped from about 165 million in 2012 to 149 million in 2018, representing a 10 percent relative decrease, as noted in the Global Nutrition Report. But it still isn't nearly enough to meet the World Health Assembly goal of reducing stunting by 40 percent, to about 100 million children, by 2025. The reduction of child wasting to a global target rate of less than 5 percent is even slower.
As the Covid-19 pandemic threatens further setbacks, emerging nutrition efforts are focusing on accelerating successful community-based programs, especially those that aim to prevent bursts of acute malnutrition from spiraling into more severe cases that result in wasting and stunting. The Eleanor Crook Foundation, for example, is partnering with non-governmental organizations and universities in several East African countries, including Ethiopia, to spur research and innovative grassroots nutrition programs that can be scaled up across many communities. The Power of Nutrition movement is rallying governments, the private sector and international institutions to ramp up their investments in integrating essential nutrition services at local health care facilities. In Ethiopia, it is aiming to bring micronutrient supplementation and the promotion of good nutrition behaviors to nearly 20 million children and mothers by the end of next year.
In December, after visiting Hagirso, I returned to the site of the emergency feeding tents where I had first met him. A hospital now stands where the tents once did. Instead of parents arriving with dying children in their arms hoping they can somehow be saved, they now arrive with healthy children and hopes to keep them that way. In the hospital courtyard, the World Food Program, which in 2003 led the emergency feeding efforts, was now leading a nutrition education workshop for new moms and moms-to-be.
Several dozen women sat on the grass, under broad shade trees. They were children themselves during the 2003 famine. Now, they participated in a cooking class featuring common foods packed with nutrients. They lined up with their babies, waiting for a nurse to wrap a measuring tape around their upper arm in a screening intended to catch the beginning stages of undernutrition. They pledged to return every month for more lessons and more measurements to make sure they don't fall behind the nutrition curve.
Hagirso's mother, Fikre, told me she has attended similar classes, hoping to avoid malnutrition for the four children she had after Hagirso. The oldest of them, a daughter, is named ThankYou, a prayer to God for sparing her from starvation. The youngest, a four-year-old boy, is named Enough, a plea to God that he be their last child, and their last worry about malnutrition and stunting.

MONTEGO BAY, Jamaica – April 8, 2019 /Canna Newswire/ – The Willows Farms Limited recently received a green light to start business, as they were awarded their conditional approval for five licenses from the Cannabis Licensing Authority. The company is on a mission to help diversify Jamaica's economic base. Jamaica is set to emerge as an indigenous leader in the medical cannabis space. Consequently, the country is perfectly positioned with a spotlight on producing safe and effective high-grade strains for future exports worldwide.
Due to the international expansion of medicinal cannabis, The Willows Farms welcomes the opportunity to introduce our initiative to strategic partners. The objective is to forge an alliance of integrity that supports a systemic framework to diversify wellness. This benefit is certain to enable monetization opportunities within branding license, land segments, and community infrastructure.
"We're thrilled to be part of a select group of businesses who can participate in the early-stages of the legal medical cannabis market in Jamaica," said Monique Drayton, the Director of Communications for The Willows Farms. While Jamaica has been known for many cultural sentiments, its ideal atmospheric conditions are prime for this agricultural pursuit.
"The Cultivator's License Tier 3 is particularly important, because we have over 500 acres of land that we've earmarked to use in the development with a significant portion being dedicated to grow medical cannabis. We're actively seeking experienced partners who are ready to harness this seismic venture right away," added Monique Drayton. The Willows Farms plans to serve various purposes for educational opportunities, economic growth with a sustainable trading base, and strategic wellness training programs conducive to safe learning environments.
Despite the number of competitors entering the cannabis market, The Willows Farms is appropriately positioned to be a premier producer. The strength of Jamaica's tourism market, through historical intention and interest, has been the conduit of successfully attracting attention to produce high grade cannabis strains. As a result, The Willows Farms is excited to support this health & wellness endeavor byway of adding a strong presence to Jamaica's already culturally rich community.
The Willows Farms has assembled a network team of qualified professionals and invaluable resources. This therapeutic business model has been strategically designed to collaborate with universities to generate optimal opportunities for students interested in pursuing the cannabis industry's research and development process. With the conditional approval and usable land space, The Willows Farms is currently making provisions to start operations in this rapidly evolving market. The legalization of medical cannabis has provided an unprecedented platform for licensed cannabis businesses to finally reach previously under-served, prescribed patients. With that, the fundamental goal is to successfully establish a credible, international brand focused on creating new jobs to facilitate financial freedom for the systemic roots of Jamaica.
The Willows Farms is proud to be a conditionally approved medical cannabis cultivator, processor, transporter, research & developer, and retailer. We are committed to producing a high quality product with valued integrity cultivated by local farmers and grown in the most natural, tropical atmosphere. Moreover, we strive to ensure that it is available to prescribed patients who are in need of accessible and affordable medical cannabis. Our strengths run through our bloodline to help drive research and innovation, create jobs across the island, and bring international investments that will fuel the growth and development of the economy.

Classification of web applications and content by URL category
Blue Coat Systems announced that their PacketShaper appliances can now deliver instant awareness of Web applications and content. The appliances provide intelligent control that can immediately manage new Web applications and content without requiring updates or new policies.
PacketShaper appliances can now utilize the cloud-based Blue Coat WebPulse service, a community of 70 million users that provides Web awareness through shared information, to understand and categorize Web applications and content in real time. This integration with the WebPulse service enables PacketShaper appliances to categorize tens of millions of Websites and billions of URLs into 80 logical and manageable categories, allowing organizations to collectively manage and apply policies to similar content.
With the WebPulse service, each URL can be classified in up to four distinct categories, enabling more precise and granular visibility into and management of Web applications and content. For example, an organization can allow access to Facebook for status updates and chat while limiting bandwidth allocated to Facebook games.
Traditional solutions that attempt to discover applications based on domain name lack the scalability and flexibility to keep pace with the rapid growth of Web-based applications and content. These solutions require an IT manager to create a new policy for each new online game even if it is the same policy that is already in place for all other classified games. Without the ability to create and manage policies for a group of similar content, these solutions become extremely resource intensive and unmanageable as content and applications grow.
Additionally, this approach doesn't provide the granular differentiation to effectively control traffic from a site like Facebook, which encompasses many categories, including email, chat, videos and games, that an organization might want to manage differently.
The new classification by URL category functionality is available on all existing PacketShaper appliances as a software upgrade. Additionally, Blue Coat is introducing a new high performance PacketShaper appliance that more than doubles the performance of the PacketShaper 10000 appliance. The PacketShaper 12000 appliance manages up to 3 Gbps of aggregate throughput for typical enterprise traffic, providing a high capacity platform for today's complex mix of applications and content.

Hawaii seawater air conditioning plans shut down over costs
HONOLULU (AP) — Plans to air-condition many commercial and government buildings in Honolulu using cold deep-sea water have been shut down because of increasing construction costs.
Honolulu Seawater Air Conditioning LLC had pursued the project for 16 years, spending $25 million, obtaining all major regulatory approvals and signing up numerous customers, The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported Monday.
Customer Service Director Gregory Wong said construction cost estimates increased from $275 million to $400 million. The company is expected to halt administrative functions by the end of January.
"We had come so far," Wong said. "It's disappointing that we have to stop now. Still, we appreciate the great collaboration and the relationships we've had the opportunity to develop over the years."
The system would have turned seawater into air conditioning by pumping cold seawater to a land-based heat-exchange plant to chill a closed system of fresh water sent to individual building air conditioning systems through underground distribution lines. Leftover warmed seawater would have been returned to the ocean where the water is about the same temperature.
The project originally planned to build a 4.7-mile (7.6-kilometer) pipeline tapping seawater about 44 degrees Fahrenheit (7 Celsius) from more than 1,700 feet (518 meters) below the ocean surface.
Company officials estimated that the system would save building owners and residents up to 75% on air conditioning costs and eliminate 77 million kilowatt-hours of electricity used annually, or enough to power about 13,000 homes.
Last year, Honolulu Seawater said construction could begin this year and be completed in 2022.
"Letting go of our dream is not easy," said Murray Clay, president of local investment firm Ulupono Initiative and board member for Honolulu Seawater. "Despite all of the environmental benefits and the project's ability to help move our state toward greater energy self-sufficiency, it became clear it would not have been prudent to pursue this further."


The QLD Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) are currently investigating developing the capability within DTMR to implement an integrated land use transport model, with the ability to test different land use scenarios in response to key infrastructure projects, such as Cross River Rail.
This proposed framework and subsequent model would give DTMR the ability to influence land use planning from both a state and local government perspective to better utilise and account for changes in the future transport network capacity. This model would also greatly improve the relationship and linkages between transport and land use planning.
This project will be unique by drawing upon best practice methodologies from a range of different academic disciplines including; demographic projection methods, land use planning, transport demand modelling, economic and econometric modelling. The case study for this project will be South East Queensland in its practical application but the framework, methods and findings from the research component will be far-reaching and could be utilised for any major urban area.
Currently, demographic projections and the land use plans which underpin them do not have the ability to incorporate how future changes in the transport network will influence where people choose to reside, seek employment and educational opportunities. This project will seek to address this shortcoming in the current methods in land use planning and the demographic projections used for infrastructure planning and business case submissions.
Transport infrastructure investment decisions are made with the help of transport model outputs. However, contemporary transport models focus extensively on day-to-day decisions at various levels of aggregation, and generally use macroeconomic projections of population, residential location and activity locations as exogenous.
That is, the relations between population projections, long-term decisions (e.g., residential location, workplace location, car ownership) and mobility decisions (e.g., mode and route choices) are generally ignored in their endogenous nature. In particular, the behavioural dimensions of the decision-making processes by populations are not currently fully accounted for.
For example, highly congested urban networks likely influence household residential location choice, and household composition growth probably affects both residential location, workforce participation and mobility decisions. Model outputs are affected by the shortcoming of ignoring the endogenous nature of these relations and are likely unrealistic in their predictions. These have consequences in the allocation of resources, planning environments and funding priorities. In addition, given future mobility solutions that are likely to change the concept of commute, it becomes even more relevant to consider more integrated dynamic models.
Stage 1 will be concerned with the compilation of a knowledge base capturing international best practice that will inform Stage 2.
Stage 2 will develop an integrated land use and transport modelling framework.
Stage 3 will be to implement and operationalise a prototype model in an SEQ context.
The overarching aim of this research will be to assemble a new modelling framework with the capacity to analyse and model population-land use and transport interactions. The case study context for this project is the South East Queensland region.
Support the planning and design of future transport networks with new services and CAVs.
Define and understand the relations between accessibility, cost and travel time and how these factors affect people's choices of where they live, work and seek educational opportunities.
Develop housing unit demographic projection modelling framework that embeds the key factors and relationships as determined in the above point (1).

Woodstock Republican Precinct Committeeman Opines on District 200 School Board Race
This was sent by Dorr Township Precinct 7 Republican Committeeman Cyndi Hemauer:
Dear Friends & Neighbors,
We had a problem at one time and time ticks away because we don't want to see the truth and now, Woodstock "We Have A Crisis"! Did you know, we pay 4.60% in Property Taxes, just to live here.
Let that sink in for a moment. The national average is 1.4% and we pay 4.6%! How did we get to this?
We gambled on growth and when the real estate bubble burst in 2008, Woodstock stopped the expansion but D200 just kept spending and they keep on spending even till today.
We have two High Schools at half capacity (the new High School, Woodstock North is smaller in size than Woodstock High School and Woodstock North was built on top of an aqueduct).
We need to talk about this because it affects the biggest investment we make in our lives and that is our house.
Every time D200 increases their budget and spends more the EAV (equal assess value) to our homes decline, making our homes worth less and lose value when we go to sell it.
I have been attending D200 School Board Meetings for the past two years.
We plead with them, show figures and have asked them to have the courage to find ethical and constructive solutions to these challenges D200 is facing but they refuse to listen and even answer any questions during public comments.
2017 ballot for the Woodstock School District.
When a School Board Member takes their oath, one of the promises they make is,
"I shall respect taxpayer interests by serving as a faithful protector of the school district's assets…"
(http://www.iasb.com/elections/oath.cfm).
We have an opportunity come this April 4, 2017, when we will get to vote.
We can change the path we are on, which is not good for us the taxpayers as well as for the students.
Barb Gessert and Susan Handelsman have been attending School Board Meetings with me for the last two years.
They understand and know this dangerous path we face and are willing to pull up their sleeves and make the hard decisions.
Even Superintendent Mike Moen says we can SAVE $2.5 MILLION ANNUALLY and continue to PROVIDE QUALITY EDUCATION to our students and with that, can make a difference in our property taxes.
I'm inviting you to meet and attend a Public Forum this Thursday, March 16th at 7:00 pm upstairs at the Woodstock Public Library (see invite below).
No one wants to talk about this crisis including the two incumbents, Carl Warren Gilmore & L. William Natress.
Please send this invitation to other D200 friends and neighbors and encourage them to attend and make a difference. I thank you and appreciate your help.
In Liberty,
Cyndi Hemauer

There are 10 candidates on the April 4, 2017 ballot for Woodstock School District 200 school board.
They are competing for 4 open positions.
Only 3 of those 4 positions can be from Dorr Township (7 of the 10 candidates have residency in Dorr Township).
There is a rule for the Woodstock school district that "not more than" x candidates can be elected from y Township.
Presumably that's to prevent over representation from any particular township on the school board.
The Dorr Township Candidates are: Nattress, Gilmore, Parisi, Gessert, Kockler, Farris, & Ferrarini.
Two of the 4 incumbents (Camille Goodwin & Paul Meyer) are not running for re-election.
The incumbents running for re-election are Bill Nattress and Carl Gilmore.
Here is an overview of the candidates as they appear on the ballot.
The first 7 candidates are from Dorr Township.
Keep in mind only 3 of the 4 elected candidates can be from Dorr Township.
Bill Nattress: Incumbent. Resides in Dorr Twp. Director of Channel Strategy at Biamp. Has 2 children that graduated from Woodstock High School.
Carl Gilmore: Incumbent (current Board President). Resides in Dorr Twp. Attorney at Woodstock Legal Consultants. Has 2 children in elementary school in the district.
John Parisi: Running as a slate of 2 with Jacob Homuth. Believes the school district should accommodate the gender identity wishes of student and parent. Attorney at KML Associates in Crystal Lake. Has children attending Woodstock CUSD 200 schools. Endorsed by former school Board President Camille Goodwin. Former PTO President of Verda Dierzen Early Learning Center in Woodstock CUSD 200.
Barbara Gessert: Running as a slate with Susan Handelsman. Both are fiscal conservatives. Has children in Woodstock District 200 schools and one that graduated from Woodstock HS. Has met with school board members on issues of spending.
Karen Kockler: Speech Language Pathologist in Huntley School District 158. Daughter is a Music Teacher in District 200. "But reducing taxes is not a school board responsibility; managing the funds that come from federal and state resources IS a major responsibility."
Bruce Farris: Dentist. Member of the City of Woodstock Parks & Recreation Commission. Former volunteer cross country coach at Woodstock North High School.
Jill Ferrarini: Owns a commercial cleaning service. Has children in Woodstock CUSD 200 schools. Does not want Woodstock North to close. Not a fan of vouchers or charter schools. Opposed to allowing transgender students to use facilities that align with their gender identity.
Susan Handelsman: Running as a slate with Barbara Gessert. Susan has spent a lot of time researching the school district, especially financial aspects, has attended many school board meetings, has dialogued with the current board, has commented frequently on the blog, and has submitted articles to the blog. She is currently involved in a lawsuit against the district regarding fund transfers. As a background on that topic, school districts, the government, and non profits use what is called fund accounting, which is different than business accounting. In fund accounting, each fund has an identified purpose. Susan believes the district had inappropriate fund transfers (transfers from one fund to another). A free resource on school district accounting in Illinois is, "Mechanics of a School District Budget, a Guide to Understanding the Illinois School District Budget Process" by the Illinois State Board of Education.
Suzann Schroeder: Worked 20 years in the financial industry (unknown in what capacity or if still working in that industry). Has two children that attend Woodstock District 200 schools. Husband Jeff is an attendance facilitator / Dean and the head football coach at Woodstock North.
Speaking of Woodstock North Football.
Current Woodstock District 200 board member Jerry Miceli – whom is not up for re-election this election – is a volunteer football coach at Woodstock North. Jerry Miceli earned $153,797 as a PE teacher and wrestling coach (maybe some additional stipend duties – would only know by submitting a FOIA request to the school district) at Vernon Hills High School in Libertyville / Vernon Hills High School District 128 in 2015 (26th year teaching), plus $7,195 from Woodstock District 200 (as a volunteer football coach? – again we don't know for what unless we submit a FOIA request to the school district), for a total of $160,992, all of which is pensionable income. If he in fact did receive a pensionable stipend for coaching football at Woodstock North that's a pretty interesting definition of volunteer.
Jacob Homuth – Running as a slate with John Parisi. Adult probation officer in Probation & Court Services Dept of McHenry County.
Brother Jeremiah Homuth is an Assistant Football Coach at Woodstock North whom was wounded as a solider while on patrol in Afghanistan and another brother Joshua was in the Navy and is a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor at the US Dept of Veterans Affairs.
Woodstock School District has serious financial difficulties.
They did not reign in costs quickly enough when the financial crisis hit.
Now difficult choices will have to be made, be it cuts or hiking taxes.
The spike in bond payments that must be dealt with in 2022 – 2026 are an issue and depending on the prevailing interest rate at the time of refunding and the financial condition of the district could result in hiked interest costs.

Hip-hop collective releases genre-blending album
(Photo courtesy of Doomtree Records)
Published on November 22, 2011 at 9:45 am
By Eli Watson
Minneapolis-based collective Doomtree has become a resonating voice in hip-hop's ever-changing scene. Alongside Minneapolis' Rhymesayers Entertainment, which features the likes of underground-turned-mainstream rapper Atmosphere, MF Doom and Doomtree's very own P.O.S., Doomtree have solidified themselves as one of hip-hop's definitive new voices. The group, all of jacks-of-multiple-trades, functions like Wu-Tang Clan: they feed off of each other's energy, their rhymes accompanied by an unrelenting punk-rock vigor that exudes conviction and authenticity.
Now, the group returns with their latest collaborative effort, No Kings, an album that picks up where their self-titled 2008 release started. Opener "No Way" begins with staccato snare drum, explosive high hat cymbals and driving bass guitar, before shifting to an onslaught of declarations by Doomtree's technical wordsmith, Cecil Otter. "I go so fucking nasty," says Otter, his statement an unrelenting foreshadow of the uncontrollable rambunctiousness that is apparent throughout the album.
"Beacon" oozes with fuzzy synths, and the song's hook is infectious. Dessa's vocal delivery is thinly veiled by distorted, Auto-Tune-like effects, creating a strangely captivating momentary bliss, followed by a blistering battle of words between Sims and Otter.
Album ender "Fresh New Trash" epitomizes the group's comfort and sense of unity with one another. Featuring all five MCs and produced by Otter, Lazerbeak, Paper Tiger and P.O.S., "Fresh New Trash" is a proclamation: Doomtree is here to stay, regardless of fame and mainstream appeal. "I rep Doom, 'til I'm dust," declares Dessa over 1970s horns, while fearless leader P.O.S. goes in for the kill with, "I'm feelin' like fresh new trash, top of the can, out of the bag and scattered all over everything."
No Kings continues to prove that Doomtree is nothing like their contemporaries, and the group would not have it any other way. Similar to the punk rock movement that the group is influenced by, Doomtree does not flinch in the face of uncertainty: The group attacks it with a certain level of fervor and poignancy, resulting in a slew of profound declarations backed by a flurry of maniacal drums and sounds. Each member compliments the others: from the insightful, witty reflections of songstress Dessa, to the tenaciously aggressive tone of the intimidating Mike Mictlan, the Doomtree collective never falters in its delivery.
Doomtree's intentions are embodied in this line: "I wasn't in it for the fame or making profit." It is that exact quality that separates Doomtree from the rest and proves that the midwest collective thrives off of a challenge.

Q: How to make Redis automatically handle persistent connection with Predis I'm using predis to interact with two Redis instances (master and slave servers). Master is mainly for write only and slave is used for read only.
I'm having to switch connections using select function of Redis which is fine but I'm concerned about its performance. Would I be better off to create a singleton class and use it for instantiating $this->redis and also for select how would I maintain persistence?
Below is bits of my code so far. I was wondering if this could be done to increase performance?
$redis = $this->redis;

$tipperKey = str_pad($tipperId, 10, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
if ($this->debug) {
  $this->logger->addDebug('tipperKey=' . $tipperKey);
  $this->logger->addDebug("Adding groupId:$groupId to \"groups:$tipperKey\" in db:0");
}

// add groupId to tipper groups set
try {
  $redis->select(0);
  $redis->sadd('groups:' . $tipperKey, $groupId);
} catch (Exception $e) {
  $this->logger->addError("Error adding groupId:$groupId to \"groups:$tipperKey\" in db:0 : " . $e->getMessage());
  return false;
}

$result = $this->getRoundsPlayed($competitionId); // cached (600)
if (!$result) {
  return false;
}

$tk = 'tipper:' . $tipperKey;
try {
  foreach ($result as $row) {
    $i = (int)$row['round_number'];
    if ($this->debug) {
      $this->logger->addDebug('select db:' . $i);

Peppermint herbal leaf. Brew with freshly drawn boiled water that has been allowed to cool for two minutes.
Naturally caffeine free, mint tea is considered beneficial for the digestive system. Extremely pleasant after dinner. This is considered a herbal tea.
This herbal tea is from Poland.
Apart from being delicious, peppermint loose leaf tea brings with it some amazing benefits.
But it does also have a few cautionary measures. So below we're outlining the pros and cons of drinking peppermint tea on a regular basis.
In its natural form, peppermint has a very scientific name – Mentha piperita, which is a combination of the words water mint and spearmint.
Please note, these are only suggested benefits and therefore our teas are not a replacement for medicinal products.
Let us take a look at each of these individually and explain why Peppermint has such great benefits.
Reducing fever – When you drink hot tea, it's likely to cause you to sweat and the menthol in the tea means it helps with fever symptoms.

Iced peppermint tea is a delicious drink to keep you refreshed and relaxed in warm weather. We have found a couple of great recipes we would like to share with you.
The first is from Frugal Farm Wife and is a pretty simple recipe.
Stir the peppermint leaves into the boiling water and allow to cool. You can leave them in for just 10 minutes or overnight, depending on how strong you would like the flavour.
Strain out the leaves and add your sweetener.
Add your cold water, chill and enjoy!
This second recipe is from Gourmet Traveller and has a few more steps, but it is definitely worth it.
Bring the apple juice to the boil in a pan.
Add the tapioca and stir frequently on a high heat for 10-12 minutes.
Spread on a tray and allow to cool in the fridge.
For the peppermint tea, bring the sugar and 500ml of water to the boil, constantly stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Once the sugar is dissolved, remove from the heat and add the peppermint tea leaves.
Steep for around 3-4 minutes, or however long you would like depending on what flavour you are after.
Strain out the leaves, add 2 cubes of ice and allow to chill in the fridge.
Combine the cucumber, apple, lime and juice in a bowl, then stir in the tapioca mixture and mint. Spoon into chilled bowls, top with crushed ice and pour over tea just before serving.

Q: How to access profile API from the frontend. User is logged in from the backend but Django does not recognise log in from react frontend I have created an Api using django rest framework (localhost/users/profile) that gets the user's details if they are logged in. It works perfectly when I call the API in the backend when user is logged in the backend.
enter image description here
But when I try to access the same API from my React front end, it doesnt work.
I think the problem would be that cookies are not stored when a request is made from the backend. But I dont know how to solve it.

To be eligible for admission to the MS Counseling program, applicants must have a bachelor's degree with a minimum overall grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 in the last 45 quarter (30 semester) credits from a regionally-accredited institution and meet all other requirements outlined in the University Catalog. In addition, applicants must provide evidence of academic competence, professional comportment, and mature judgment. Individuals whose undergraduate degree is in still progress may be accepted pending satisfactory completion prior to beginning the master's degree program. Applicants with an undergraduate degree offered in a language other than English must provide TOEFL scores in accordance with university policy.
Applicants may apply to begin the MS Counseling program full time or part time in autumn, winter, and spring quarters. Application deadlines vary according to the academic calendar and are posted. Applicants should plan on the process taking a minimum of two to three months.
Applications for admission are completed, paid for, and submitted online. Applicants are asked to provide current and permanent contact information, academic history, names of three recommenders, and a description of their rationale choosing to enroll in the MS Counseling program at Loma Linda University.
On the application form, individuals are asked to list the names, professional positions and e-mail addresses of three individuals who can recommend them for the MS Counseling program. At least two of the recommenders should be current or former professors who know the applicant's academic history, and one of the recommenders can be a current or former employer or supervisor. Recommendations from friends, relatives, or co-workers are not acceptable. When the application is submitted each of these individuals will receive e-mail with a link to access the recommendation form, which is to be completed and submitted online.
After three recommendations and all official transcripts are received, qualified applicants will be invited to an on-campus or phone conference interview with faculty. Following that interview, faculty make a recommendation to the dean regarding acceptance.
Applicants will be notified of the admissions decision within two to three weeks following the interview.


Lieutenant General Kenneth McKenzie has warned that unless recruiting and training improve, local forces will not overcome the current casualty rate. McKenzie has been nominated to lead US military´s Central Command, which oversees the Afghan war.
Last month, Afghan President Ashraf Ghani said nearly 30,000 local forces had been killed since they took over responsibility for security in the war-torn country from NATO in 2015 — far more than previously acknowledged.
"I share the concern about the high casualty rates, but the consequence of that is not to reduce our presence but to make sure we provide support to enable them to increase their capabilities and their resilience even more," Stoltenberg told reporters in Brussels.
But Afghan Foreign Minister Salahuddin Rabbani insisted that despite the losses, resolve of his country´s forces and their appetite for the fight remain undimmed.
"We do have casualties, but as far as the determination and resolve of the Afghan security forces is concerned, be assured they are very resilient in defending their territory and their people against terrorist attacks," he said.
After talks in Brussels, foreign ministers from countries taking part in NATO´s Resolute Support mission renewed a call for direct talks between the Taliban and the government.


On 26-27 May 2011, Tallinn will host the 2nd international conference "Cities For All – Tallinn For All' Mobility, where the participants will be discussing mobility related issues, review reasons behind the success or failure of mobility projects in various countries, and discuss the social, economic and environmental impact connected with it.The speakers come from England, Finland, Estonia, Austria, and France. The keynote speaker is Rama Gheerawo from the Helen Hamlyn Centre for Design at the Royal College of Art; Hanna-Leena Rissanen will present the research carried out by the Aalto University in Helsinki, which is entitled 'Future Public Transport for All'; from Jarmo Tuisk we will hear why Estonian electromobility project is innovative; Veolia's example presented by Claude Arnaud from France attempts to demonstrate that involving designers in creating new solutions has proven to be appropriate; Eric Rhinn speaks about the design process for public transports in Saint-Etienne. Veronika Egger will provide examples about the generation of efficient mobility prototypes; Fabien Combe demonstrates his projects on urban sustainable mobility. The conference will be opened by Finn Petren, the President of the EIDD Design For All Europe and introduction speech will be made also by Christian Guellerin, the President of Cumulus. The conference will be moderated by Pete Kercher. Panel discussions will be held with the participation of professors of Estonian higher educational institutions and internationally recognised mentors (Julia Cassim, Finn Petren, Francesc Aragall, Avril Accolla, Roger O'Keeffe etc.) who will be leading the implementation of the project named 'Cities for All – Tallinn For All'.
'Cities for All – Tallinn For All' is an international co-operation project, whose objective is to find solutions for turning Tallinn into a more accessible and user-friendly city.The project will be realised by the Estonian Association of Designers, and the results of the first work groups will be analysed within the workshop held on 26 May. Final innovation proposals, as well as new product and service projects can be seen in September, at the exhibition taking place in the framework of the European Innovation Festival and the Design Night (Sept 16-25).
The spread of information within a society is taking place with extreme speed, owing to modern technology. The digital revolution has made the world more transparent, and the internet facilitates decision taking processes. Have you ever thought how much time and money you save because you can perform necessary actions without having to go anywhere; internet banking and tax authorities' services, as well as the electronic election option are just some of the examples. Electronic services are developing rapidly, and when we use them widely we are also helping to reduce the impact on the environment. How has the spread of e-services changed our moving habits? As long as teleportation has not become a reality we have to ask ourselves whether or not physical mobility will catch up with virtual mobility? The objective is to travel faster, easier and in a manner that spares the environment. The use of vehicles which pollute the environment as little as possible is in the best interests of us all.
When we create new solutions, do we take into consideration every group of people, be them the elderly, mothers with children or people with special needs? An ageing society forces us to think about ways to solve mobility and transport problems for people with weaker physical abilities. Old people must also be free to choose where they get old. The benchmark is unassisted independent living, and simple access to key services: stores, health care facilities, post offices, community centres and social networks. Mobility affects independence, communication between generations, and participation in the life of the community. Mobility has an important social dimension. A human society must take into consideration all the groups of people when designing an environment. The Design For All platform brings together designers and architects with a holistic mindset, who care about people for whom they design new products and services or buildings.
Program May 26-27 Conference is in English.
The conference is endorsed by EIDD Design For All Europe, Cumulus, Tallinn City, Pro Inno Europe, Culture Endowment.

Founded in 1565, St. Augustine is affectionately known as "the Oldest City." The Spanish settlement that is now the business center of St. Johns County was founded 42 years before the English colonized Jamestown and 55 years before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock. St. Augustine abounds with an astounding array of historic sites and buildings. Take a stroll along historic St. George Street and you are certain to drift back to a time when cobblestone streets were the rule of thumb and life was simpler. Each year, more than 40 festivals and other events are staged that bring the ambiance of the Old City to life. Many of these annual events feature re-enactments where participants are dressed in period costumes reflecting the St. Augustine of old, as well as arts and craft shows and music festivals.
