Hank Egan Interview
Hank Egan won a championship in San Antonio as a member of Gregg Popovich's staff. Two decades before that, Popovich was a member of Egan's staff at Air Force. Egan also won two West Coast Conference Coach of the Year awards at San Diego, where one of his players was current Cleveland Cavaliers Coach Mike Brown. Egan is now an assistant coach on Brown's staff. Last season, I interviewed Egan, and he provided many candid, interesting insights about the NBA. One of the points he made is that it takes one full year and then some time into the second year before a team completely assimilates a coach's complete program, particularly at the defensive end of the court. I spoke with Egan recently and asked him how much progress the Cavaliers have made in that regard. Also, some analysts do not believe that Larry Hughes is the right "Robin" to LeBron James' "Batman" but Egan explains why they are wrong.
Friedman: "Last time when we spoke you described Larry Hughes as a 'Steady Eddie' player, someone who really settles everybody down and is very important for the chemistry of the team. Now that you have had a chance to coach him for a full season and are going into a second season coaching him, tell me some more about the impact that he has had on this team and the impact that he can have this season if he stays healthy."
Egan: "That's the big key right there—if he stays healthy. We started out very good last year with him (18-10) and then he went down and we hung around until we got Flip Murray—we needed another guy to offset LeBron, so the defense couldn't just sit on him. He (Hughes) has played very well in the preseason. He's been one of the best players in the preseason this year. If he can take some of the heat off of LeBron and give us some scoring punch, someplace to go (for points) when LeBron is on the bench, then that will be big for us."
Friedman: "I'm sure that you are aware that some media people and some critics say that Hughes is not the right type of player to play with LeBron, that LeBron should be surrounded by pure shooters (to spread the court). How would you respond to that kind of comment or that kind of criticism?"
Egan: "Larry is a decent shooter but what he can do is dribble penetrate and pitch to LeBron, because LeBron can shoot the three, too. I don't think that those people (critics) are right. We need to have somebody who can handle the ball a little bit because we don't want LeBron to have to carry the whole load. I like having Larry (to do that). When we need shooting, we've got Damon Jones who we can put (on the court) with Larry and we've got Donyell Marshall, who is a great three point shooter. I think that we've got enough shooting."
Friedman: "Isn't the defensive versatility that Hughes supplies you with—where Hughes and LeBron can flip flop who they are guarding depending on foul trouble and also can easily switch on pick and rolls—an important aspect of his value as well?"
Egan: "Yes and that helps us with (point guard Eric) Snow, because he is a strong guy, and we can do a lot of switching with him, too, on pick and rolls. Lots of times, we put Larry on the point guard, Eric Snow on the shooting guard and LeBron can play the three. That makes it a lot simpler for us. His (Hughes') versatility on the defensive end is helpful as well."
Friedman: "Do you like having Larry on the point guard because of his length and because he gets his hands in the passing lanes?"
Egan: "Yeah and because he has some natural quickness. He's a quick guy and he has length to him. He can put some pressure on the point guard."
Friedman: "On the surface it would look like having Snow cover a shooting guard might be a mismatch because of the height difference but I remember that you guys did that last year even against Kobe. Why is it a good matchup for you to have him on a shooting guard even though he is giving up some height?"
Egan: "Because guys like Kobe want to post up and it's hard to post up Snow because he's a strong veteran who knows what he is doing. The reason we put him on the shooting guard is that a lot of teams want to post their shooting guards and we want him on that matchup because he will make it hard for them on the post."
Friedman: "He has a low center of gravity, also, so his lack of height can almost be an advantage in terms of leverage."
Egan: "That's right. He's strong; he's a very strong guy."
Friedman: "Last year we talked about implementing a defensive game plan and having a team become solid defensively. You told me that it takes a full year and then into the second year for the team to really have what you called 'corporate knowledge' about how to play defense. I am interested in a progress report of where the Cavs stand now defensively; when we first talked you were really just starting that process."
Egan: "We, as a coaching staff, changed our defensive philosophy as the season went along and we saw the strengths and weaknesses of our ball club."
Friedman: "In what way did you change?"
Egan: "We were playing a lot of one on one defense and fronting the post to not allow the ball to go in there. Then we went to not fronting the post all the time, mixing our coverages, sometimes doubling and sometimes fronting and just being able to make changes (throughout the game). The reason we did that is because at some positions we are not really very, very athletic, but we have smart guys who have been around for a while. So the way that we have to compensate for not being able to use quickness, jumping ability and all that is using the ability to change defenses on the fly."
Friedman: "Is center (Zydrunas Ilgauskas) one of those positions that is not athletic?"
Egan (smiles slightly): "Yeah, absolutely, but he's intelligent and the other guys around him are intelligent. So sometimes we double on the post or we'll double from different spots or we'll change the pick and roll coverages. If they are hurting us on one pick and roll coverage then we will change it instead of putting another player out there. Even if they are not hurting us, we'll change just to keep them off balance because we found that our guys can adapt on the fly. They can adapt during the game, which is a strength that we didn't know that we had; so we are using that more."
Friedman: "Last year you had the good playoff run and got so close to the Eastern Conference Finals. Did that almost, in a sense, put you ahead of schedule and put some added pressure on you for this year? People expect that since you went so far last year that you automatically have to go farther this year."
Egan: "I don't know about the expectations from the coaching staff but outside expectations and pressure—there is considerably more than there would have been if we hadn't made the run that we did last year. So we are sitting with that burden right now and we have to respond to that. It will be very important for us early to respond to that—the pressure and also having the understanding that if we want to do as well as we did last year that we have to get better. It won't happen because of what we did last year; it will happen because of what we learn from last year."
Friedman: "LeBron talked about you guys being a hunted team and how some of the other teams recognize or believe that the Cavaliers are an elite team and that this season will be different mentally. Is that something that the coaching staff explicitly addresses with the team?"
Egan: "We've reminded them of it on more than one occasion. I'll tell you that for sure. It's not just us talking about it. I think that it was Charles Barkley who said that we have to prove that we can play with a target on our back."
Friedman: "Absolutely. He did say that. You've had that experience with the Spurs. Is it something that, even though you say that to the team and you realize it, in a certain sense the players will not really understand how much they are being hunted until they get out there and experience it? You can talk about it and understand it at a conceptual level but isn't it still going to be different when they actually get on the court and go through it?"
Egan: "Absolutely."
Friedman: "Is it just something they are going to have to go through and you hope that they respond well?"
Egan: "Yeah. Exactly."
Friedman: "Taking the Cavaliers out of the equation, who would you say are the top three teams in the East?"
Egan: "Miami's got to be there because of Shaq and Dwyane Wade. The Chicago Bulls have made themselves considerably better. Last night's performance (Chicago's 108-66 opening night win over Miami) was maybe an anomaly just a little bit because of the ring ceremony. Two things that I am glad of right now are that we are not playing Chicago, because they are playing so well, and I'm glad that we are not playing Miami, because they are going to kill the next team that they play (note: although it wasn't a blowout, the Heat did win their next game, beating the Nets, 91-85). I think Miami, Chicago and then Detroit, because they have been there before and they have Chauncey Billups and a lot of experience."
Friedman: "Don't you think that the loss of Ben Wallace is going to really hurt them, particularly in the playoffs?"
Egan: "Yeah, but they are going to have to change their style. It's going to help them at the offensive end of the floor, because the defense won't be able to just leave somebody. McDyess can score and do some things. They have been there and been there a lot of times before. They've been a good team for a while and they still have a lot of their (key) players and they're not just going to go away."
Friedman: "Wallace is not a threat to score, but he does offensive rebound and he's a good passer, so is he as much of a liability on offense as some people think? The fans always talk about 'we're playing four on five when he's out there' but I don't think that is really entirely the case because of his ability to screen, offensive rebound and pass."
Egan: "I said that they had to compensate for him not being a scorer but they used him the right way—they used him off of the ball and he was such a threat on the offensive glass. Now, they can change the way that they play and go into McDyess (in the post) and that kind of thing. You know, a team that has been very good for a sustained period of time—three, four, five years—that just loses one guy and replaces him with a pretty good player coming out of San Antonio (Nazr Mohammed)—I have to think that they are still going to be there, I really do."
Friedman: "What do you think of New Jersey?"
Egan: "They would be the next team that I would mention. They have three extremely good guys. Cliff Robinson helps them and their center is emerging. If he comes along—"
Friedman: "Nenad Krstic."
Egan: "Yeah, Krstic. If he comes along, they'd be another team that is right there."
Friedman: "Doesn't the way that some of the rules and points of emphasis have been changed—in terms of preventing defensive contact on the perimeter—really favor them? You have LeBron James and Larry Hughes but they have three guys."
Egan: "Yeah—it helps these guys (Washington Wizards), too; they are probably one of the few teams that play a pure four 'out,' one 'in' system, with four perimeter players and one post man in their starting group. They are moving all of the time; they are using a little bit of the same system that New Jersey uses."
Friedman: "Eddie Jordan was an assistant in New Jersey when Byron Scott was there."
Egan: "Yes—and they struggled after he left."

The Wallabies could be without vice-captain Michael Hooper for their crunch Rugby World Cup pool match with Wales after he was cited for alleged foul play in Sunday's victory over England.
World Rugby said the flanker was cited over an incident late in the first half of the 33-13 belting at Twickenham, where he cleared out England fullback Mike Brown in the ruck.
He allegedly "charged into the ruck or maul without use of the arms or grasping the player".
Hooper, who was penalised but not yellow-carded for the incident, faces a hearing in London tomorrow.
If found guilty, he will miss the Wales clash on Sunday morning, which will decide top spot in Pool A.
But he may face missing a good deal more.
Sanctions for the charge range from a two-week ban at the lower end of the scale through to five weeks if it is classed as mid-range, or 10 weeks and above if viewed as a top-end offence.
Hooper has formed a sensational backrow combination with fellow openside flanker David Pocock, who has been shifted to No.8, and rugged blindside Scott Fardy.
Prior to the citing, Wallabies coach Michael Cheika was confident there would be no action.
"At best, he got penalised. They made the call there," Cheika said yesterday.
Cheika will have several options to call on should Hooper become unavailable - with tyro Sean McMahon and Ben McCalman both in fine form.
McCalman won a spot on Cheika's bench in the thrashing of England ahead of McMahon, who was named man of the match in Australia's rout of Uruguay earlier in the tournament.
McMahon is considered one of the rising stars of the Australian game and his aggressive running was a feature of the Wallabies' Uruguay thrashing.
It is known Cheika is a massive fan of the 21-year-old Rebels star, but as an openside flanker stuck behind Pocock and Hooper, there have been few opportunities to force his way into the starting lineup.
"We've got some pretty influential players in those (backrow) positions, but as long as he's there rattling their cage that will keep them honest and that will keep him honest as well going forward," Cheika said after McMahon's two-try performance against Uruguay.
"I was very pleased and proud of his performance, because he knows those guys are there, and he's just got to keep taking it to them."

Older woman sitting alone on a chair at home.
Loneliness and social isolation in the U.S. is a growing epidemic affecting over eight million older adults, according to the AARP Foundation. To increase our awareness about this epidemic, take this brief true-false quiz which may challenge some of our assumptions.
1. Loneliness and social isolation are the same.
2. Prolonged isolation is equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
3. Feeling lonely can increase the risk of depression, anxiety, overeating, malnutrition and alcohol abuse.
4. Loneliness can have serious physical side effects.
5. Feelings of loneliness have little to do with cognitive decline.
6. The United Kingdom has appointed a Minister of Loneliness.
7. Individuals 60 and older who report feeling lonely have a 10 percent higher risk of death than those who do not feel lonely.
8. If you live with someone, it is unlikely you will feel lonely.
9. Loneliness among older adults who are part of the LGBT community are less likely to become more isolated with age.
10. Social isolation makes older adults more vulnerable to elder abuse.
11. Where you live has a relatively minor effect on loneliness and isolation.
12. About one in 10 women live alone.
13. We have adequate resources to keep older adults connected.
1. False: Loneliness refers to a feeling about how people perceive their experience. Social isolation is more objective involving quantifiable measures such as how frequently one sees friends, the availability of transportation and access to resources.
2. True: Social isolation is a significant health risk associated with a shorter life span similar to smoking cigarettes and is even a greater health risk than obesity.
3. True: Loneliness is harmful by increasing these risks.
4. True: Loneliness can increase the chance of arthritis, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, heart disease and even glaucoma.
5. False: Feelings of loneliness are linked to poor cognitive performance and quicker cognitive decline.
6. True: According to a 2017 report, more than nine million people in that country always feel lonely. As a result, Prime Minister Theresa May appointed a minister for loneliness.
7. False: An AARP study found that those 60 and older had a 45 percent higher risk of death compared to those who reported they did not feel lonely.
8. False: A study from the University of California San Francisco found that 43 percent of older adults surveyed reported they felt lonely even if though they lived with someone.
9. False: Those in the LGBT community are more likely to be lonely. They are less likely to have children and are more likely to be socially isolated. The problem is made worse because of the social stigma among older generations. Fortunately, a growing number of LGBT-friendly senior living communities have been developed.
10. True: The National Center on Elder Abuse refers to studies that show a connection between social isolation and higher rates of elder abuse. Isolated adults may be more vulnerable or they may be vulnerable because their abusers attempt to isolate them from others.
11. False: The National Council on Aging reports that one in six older adults living alone in the U.S. face physical, cultural and/or geographic barriers that isolate them from their peers and communities. These barriers often prevent them from receiving needed services.
12. False: According to the Population Reference Bureau, more than one-fourth (27 percent) of women ages 65 to 74 lived alone in 2014. This jumps to 42 percent among women ages 75 to 84, and to 56 percent among women ages 85 and older.
13. False: We need more resources that are accessible particularly for those geographically isolated from friends, other people and community. Rural older adults are a good example. Many are separated by long distances and often their children leave to explore life elsewhere. Lenard Kaye, director of the University of Maine Center on Aging, writes that rural elders are proud of their stoicism and independence, qualities which may have negative social consequences in older age.
Next week we will describe some innovative programs, propose some suggestions and discuss what we can do as individuals to address this national epidemic.

 Is there any way to Spring batch read file( CSV, XML etc) and move data to collections data structure (List, Set etc) ?

Thanks.

A: That's exactly what the item writer interface does - https://docs.spring.io/spring-batch/apidocs/org/springframework/batch/item/ItemWriter.html
It gives you a list of items that were processed in a chunk. You can then do whatever you want with this list.
All you need to do is create a class that implements the ItemWriter interface and you should be good to go

Mr. Spencer, clerk of the board, spoke to the students, telling them about the business of the office. All were exceedingly attentive to Mr. Spencer's talk. The party then climbed the stairs to the court rooms. Tliey stopped for a moment In the Circuit Court, presided over by Judge Allen, but, as no trial was in progress, tliey adjourned to Superior Court No. I, where Judge * McMasters was hearing a divorce cast!. Thc pupils next proceeded to sludge Curler's room, Superior Court No. 3. In tliis court a question in demurrer was being argued. Mr. Horace Smith, a graduate of thlsschool, and now oneof tlie city's best attorneys, was making a plea before the court on the legal point of how a corporation should bring suit. Judge Curter stopped the proceedings long enough to welcome tlie students, explaining that no trial was in progress then, and inviting tliem to come at a more interesting time. After the case argued by Mr. Smith was closed, another question in law was begun. Oneof tlie attorneys in the case, Mr. Frank Morrison, was also a student of this school when it was located on tlie Circle. The party left at 11 o'clock. A notable point about the trip wus the number of old High Scliool boys met by the pupils. Mr. Ralph Bamberger, Mr. F. Baker, Mr. Bernie Cohen, and the two above mentioned gentlemen were all encountered during the visit. FAILED TO SCORE. NEITHER TEAM MADE A TOUCH- DOWN IN SATURDAY'S GAME. Listless Playing on Both Sides .Made the Hatch Uninteresting—Shortridge Fumbled Repeatedly But Worked Collegians Hard. Lust Saturday afternoon, at Newby Oval, about two hundred spectators witnessed tlie most unsatisfactory game of foot-ball that has been played In this city this season. It was the match between Hanover College and Shortridge. For some reason tlie players on both sides seemed to tuke little interest in the game and consequently the contest resulted in a score ofOtoO. Only in the first few minutes of play did our eleven show its usual snap and ginger. The. listless- ness of the Hanover team seemed to be contagious and by the end of the first half the game became entirely devoid of spirit. However, the game wus not without its brilliant features. Tiie way in which Captain Dean and Harlan Busier circled tlie Hanover ends, and the way In which Glbbsand Tolin checked the heavy line-bucks of the Hanover backs brought forth cheers of encouragement from the small bund of rooters. The work of Merrill ulso was of its usual strong quality. But several times when S. If. .S. might easily have scored, the ball was carelessly fumbled and the chance lost. Twice during the game Bosler punted the ball over the Hanover goal line, but neither time was it safely secured. UOSLER KICKED OFF. Dean won the toss and lined his men up In the east half of the field. Bosler kicked off to Greene on Hanover's ten yard line. Tlie collegians then tried tandem plays against the Shortridge line but were held and resorted to un end run which gave tliem twenty-five yards. The ball was lost on downs in tlie center of the field. Shortridge then tore into tlie Hanover formation for several good gains but lost the ball on a fumble. The leather wus carried first in one direction and then in the other until the half ended, neither side winning any particulariid vantage over the other. THE SECOND HALF. The S. II. S. line-up was changed somewhat in tlie second half. Tolin was put in his regular position ut left guard to replace Doudlcan, who took Musters' place at left tackle. Clark went in alright half, and Gibbs replaced Gipe at right tackle. Hanover did not change tlieir formation. Tlie principal thing that marked the playing in this hull' was tlie cont imiul fumbling of our players. A numberof times the bull wus passed buck into empty space and rolled? out several yards behind the team. A redeeming feature uf this fumbling was the fact that the bull was usually recovered by Shortridjs,'e players. The playing in the second IjgiIf was practically a repetition of the hrst. The local team, however, kept*'the ball in their possession most of the time, and forced it to tlie twenty yard line twice, but failed to score. When close to the line Bosler punted, In the hope that Hanover would fumble tlie catch, but the pigskin soared over the line and was secured by Shanklin of the college team, thus preventing a score. The ball was brought out twenty-five yards, and the trick was repeated with the same result. The time-keepers called the game to a close at this juncture. After the game the Shortridge team had its picture taken by the Sentinel photographer. Following is the line-up of the two teams: s. 11. s. 1'OSITION. HANOVER.

Home 4G 3G Union Budget 2018: Smartphone Players Applaud Push for 'Make in India'
Union Budget 2018: Smartphone Players Applaud Push for 'Make in India'
As part of the Union Budget 2018 announcement, India's Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has increased the import duty on mobile phones from 15 per cent to 20 per cent – hence further cementing the government's ongoing push for 'Make in India'. The smartphone industry has welcomed this announcement.
Explaining the positives from this announcement, Vikas Agarwal, General Manager at OnePlus India, said, "Since the announcement of Make in India program 3 years back, over 85% of smartphones sold in country are now produced locally. So, this is opportune time to introduce next set of regulations to attract investment in the manufacturing sector and establish India as a global hub for electronics. At OnePlus, we are fully committed to the Indian market and welcome the proposed regulations. Currently, all OnePlus smartphones are produced locally and we are already exploring ways to further increase the share of local manufacturing to ensure there is minimal cost impact of any new regulations to the end customer."
Mahesh Lingareddy, Founder & Chairman of India's very own Smartron, explained, "Union Budget 2018 has given clear indications of a continued focus on the growth of new businesses in India. The announcement of increase in basic customs duty on mobile phones to 20% is a concrete step towards fostering local manufacturing in India which would further fuel indigenous innovation. This will allow us to build an innovation engine pipeline of several global brands in the country. As India's first global OEM and IOT brand with a vision of putting India on the global innovation map, the Union Budget would prove to be the necessary catalyst for our continued growth towards becoming a multi-billion dollar company globally.
India needs an investment (VC) ecosystem that can pump in US$15-US$20 billion every year to support and sustain a 5000+ startup ecosystem. Union Budget 2018 has taken the needs of the ecosystem into consideration by taking policy decisions to build a robust alternative investment regime in the country along-with a taxation model designed for the special nature of VC funds and angel investors. These policies and new taxation model would definitely help the start-ups to ensure survival and profitability over the years. As India's first global OEM and IoT brand, Smartron believes in collective innovation and this year's Union Budget would help us in our long term vision of bringing in the start-ups together on a single platform to innovate at the global level."
Ashwin Bhandari, CEO, iVOOMi India said, "It's a welcome initiative towards 'Make in India', in last 2 years ecosystem in India has already taken first level growth and situation has improved a lot. All the required resources for making the phones in India are stable, hence this will fuel industry growth, boom localisation to next level. We at iVooMi will be changing over to 100% (currently is above 95%) make in India with this initiative and start the development of localisation for PCBA SMT, Battery complete unit, Transducers making in India to drive the growth to next level, "Targeting 2020 as Completely designed and Manufactured Phone In India".
Further incentivising the higher level manufacturing (Surface Mount Technology, Injection Moulding, Optical Electronics) is recommended to expedite the design and development within Indian ecosystem," he added.
Rajesh Aggarwal, Co-Founder Micromax, said, "This year's Budget has brought significant changes, focusing on various key aspects which are largely stressed upon our overall economic growth – Rural, Agriculture, Ease of doing business, skilled based education, job creation, healthcare, housing, Structural reforms and infrastructure development which will help stimulate and strengthen the Indian economy.
The emphasis is on establishing a programme to bring in direct efforts towards building a holistic ecosystem for Artificial intelligence. The focus on AI is a welcome move towards technological advancements in India and an allocation of INR 3073 crore for the Digital India scheme will certainly propel digital adoption and smartphone adoption in the country.
The increase in customs duty on Mobiles will encourage local manufacturing. As India is becoming the global hub for manufacturing, the measures taken by the government will surely grow confidence amongst the manufacturers and I strongly believe that this will further create business and human resource opportunities as well. Also, with the government's move to invest in over 5 lakh WIFI Hotspots, will enable rural India to have Broadband access which in turn will be a significant stepping stone in the Digital India movement.
The government's measures towards the import duty on printed circuit boards (PCBs), camera modules, connectors and other components that go into making smartphones, will boost the Make in India initiative and will relentlessly pursue in curbing imports and building value addition in the country. Micromax is deeply connected on the Make in India initiative with 3 running factories and we support this.
However, the increase in customs duty on the certain parts of TV might affect the manufacturing ecosystem adversely. We need the government to help in creating an improved local manufacturing and a better component ecosystem for the consumer electronics manufacturers as well. With focus on growth, it is the budget to look forward that would add an impetus to the India's growth story," he added.
Yogesh Bhatia, MD, Detel, explained, "Certainly the budget is going to revive the confidence of the domestic Enterprenuers. The increase in the customs duty on mobile phones and TVs was indeed a much needed move. The rejig will make imported products expensive and would provide further impetus to the 'Make in India' initiative of the Government"
Vishal Malhotra, Tax Leader, Technology, Media & Entertainment and Telecommunications (TMT), EY India, said, "Overall, budget is on the expected lines. The proposal to treat foreign exchange gains/losses other than purchase of capital assets from outside India, as a revenue item, should benefit the telecom operators since presently, any foreign exchange losses on domestic procurement including purchase of spectrum is not tax deductible. Increase in customs duty on handsets to 20 percent should give a fillip to domestic manufacturing though this may increase the cost of imported handsets."

Q: Small bump with transform scale and transform-origin I've been struggling to understand why when i'm trying to do a transform scale with transform-origin: top, the animation starts with bumping the object up a little bit.
I have this snippet for example. the transition is long to emphasize the problem.
Thanks!

.plus-sign {
  border-radius: 50%;
  width: 40px;
  height: 40px;
  background-color: white;
  border: 2px solid #3b3b3b;
  outline: 3px solid white;
  transition: all 2s ease-in-out;
  position: absolute;
}

.plus-sign:hover {
  transform: scale(2);
  transform-origin: top;
  border: 1px solid #ff6250;
}

A: You can add transform-origin: left top; This will keep it within the body. Also, going up half a pixel on the border minimized all bumping behavior.

Featured Always and Touch pas at Media Arts and Technology End of Year Show concert night at the Santa Barbara Center for Art, Science and Technology.
Saturday, March 11th, ISSUE presents two generations of artists working in the medium of computational music: pioneering computer musician and scholar Curtis Roads and composer, artist and curator Eric Frye performing work in 4-channel sound.
MAT professor Curtis Roads is awarded the 2016 Giga-Hertz Prize, in recognition for his contributions to the field of electronic music. The Giga-Hertz Prize is sponsored by ZKM Karlsruhe (Das Zentrum für Kunst und Medien), and the SWR Experimental Studio, Baden-Baden, Germany. The awards ceremony will be held at the 2016 Giga-Hertz Preis Festival at ZMK Karlsruhe, November 24-27, 2016.
The Computer Music Tutorial, Revised Edition has been completely reorganized into 53 smaller chapters that can be read independently.
Thanks to a generous grant from the Baden-Württemberg Foundation in Germany, qualified students from the Center for Research in Electronic Art Technology (CREATE) and the Media Arts and Technology (MAT) program at UCSB can study and realize spatial audio projects in the Spatial Audio Group at Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design (HfG), which is affiliated with the Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie (ZKM). Students from Karlsruhe will also travel to Santa Barbara for similar purposes. As a conclusion to these activities, a conference on spatial audio entitled InSonic is being held in Karlsruhe 26-28 November 2015, which will be attended by students and faculty from both places as well as other international participants.
The ICMC|SMC|2014 Joint Conference is organized by the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Department of Music Studies and Department of Informatics and Telecommunications), the Onassis Cultural Center and the Institute for Research on Music and Acoustics.
Inspired by composer Iannis Xenakis, the title Polytopes translates to "The architecture of soundscapes." Through his work with Le Corbusier, Xenakis catalyzed a radically new sound universe and sound architecture for 20th century music.
Staging new electronic and visual music to a discussion with composers and performers, this symposium links the relations of sound experience, sound inherent structures and mathematics to architecture and space. Organized by the MediaSCAPES post-graduate program at SCI-Arc, the event is dedicated to a public audience and students interested in imagining the fusion of contemporary practices of architecture with media, music making and art.
Special thanks to Abby Sher for her support of this event. The symposium is presented by the Mediascapes program at SCI-Arc.

Q: Function declared twice in C header file I'm aware of the declaration of C header files with #ifdef and the meaning of extern before variables and functions. But recently I've got a third party library for an embedded device with the following scheme:
/* "lib.h" */
#ifndef LIB_H_
#define LIB_H_

   #ifdef LIB_C

      void function1();
      /* ... */

   #else

      extern void function1();
      /* ... */

   #endif

#endif /* LIB_H_ */

And additionally I've got a corresponding C source file:
/* lib.c */
#define LIB_C
#include "lib.h"

void function1()
   {
   /* ... */
   }

/* ... */

So here I am and a bit confused. What is the reason to declare all functions twice in the header in this way?

A: It's either an affectation, or a compatibility hack for some non-conforming or ancient compiler.  You don't need the extern version, but using it is also fine, because function declarations are extern by default.
In other words, it's cruft, but maybe someone needs that cruft.  We can't know for sure.


In a heated exchange on the Senate floor late Tuesday night, majority leader Mitch McConnell silenced fellow senator Elizabeth Warren from continuing to read a letter penned by Coretta Scott King. The letter – written in 1986 – condemned Senator Jeff Sessions' civil rights track record, and suggested he was unfit to lead as a district court judge in Alabama at the time.
Sessions, who once said he thought the KKK was "ok, until [he] learned they smoked marijuana," is adamant he has since changed his mind, proving progress does eventually march forward. "I think marijuana is alright now, too" he clarified.
Sessions and McConnell have both vowed to do everything in their power to repeat history in honor of Black people everywhere.

Nintendo Switch unboxing and size comparison video
By Ron Burke
The launch of the Nintendo Switch is just around the corner. Even though Nintendo did an official unboxing video, theirs didn't have a cute pair of doggies walking through, nor did they show a side-by-side with the Nintendo Wii U, the Nintendo 3DSXL, and the PlayStation Vita. I also showcased how easy it is to move the Joycons from the console to the controller and back.
You'll have to wait for my full review for a little while longer, but let me just say that any doubts I had about the Switch or Nintendo's approach to this console generation have been answered.
Unboxing videos aren't my usual thing, but check it out and let me know what you think. Is the Nintendo Switch smaller than you thought it'd be, larger, or just right? Stay tuned for our full launch coverage on March 1st.

February was about developing and introducing a new error handling framework in Bookmark Ninja. This improvement is about how the application behaves when an unexpected error occurs e.g.: you try to import a bookmark file that is not in the correct format or there is a hiccup in the connection.
As part of the new error handling framework users now get more detailed messages and in most cases they can even solve the problem with a simple page reload. The logging of the unexpected errors have been also improved which helps in fixing the possible bugs and making new improvements in the future.

Q: How can I get browsers to download an exe instead of opening it in the browser window? I have a website from which I want to enable browser users to download an exe.
I am testing it with a very simple HTML file which I load into the web browser with "File>Open". The "body" looks something like this:

click to download exe
click to download zip

The issue is this: when I click on the first link (myprogram.exe), the browser (IE8 as well as FireFox) streams the myprogram.exe directly into the browser window: I see a whole lot of binary.
When I click on the second link (myprogram.zip), the browser asks me if I would like to open the file or save it to disk, which is what I expected to happen with the .exe.
This is the ONLY .exe download that causes this strange behaviour.  I have downloaded .exes often and the browsers always ask me whether to open the file or save to disk.
Is there something that needs to be set on the web site itself, or the host or ... ?

A: You need to correct the content-type your webserver is sending. It sounds like it is claiming that the data is text/plain. My mime.types file suggests exe files should be application/x-msdos-program
If you are using Apache, see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_mime.html#addtype (or the similar page in the manual for the version you are using).

A: You need to set the Content-Disposition HTTP header.
UPDATE: The HTTP headers are typically controlled in the web server, e.g., Apache.
As another poster mentions, most browsers should download .exe files as an attachment automatically if the server is sending the correct Content-Type header. How to do this varies from server to server. Here's an article on setting MIME types (another name for content-type) in IIS. In Apache, it is typically done by editing the file your TypesConfig directive points to.

A: See this
How To Raise a "File Download" Dialog Box for a Known MIME Type
When you serve a document from a Web server, you might want to immediately prompt the user to save the file directly to the user's disk, without opening it in the browser. However, for known MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) types such as Microsoft Word ("application/ms-word"), the default behavior is to open the document in Internet Explorer.
You can use the content-disposition header to override this default behavior. Its format is:

Content-disposition: attachment;
  filename=fname.ext

A: In the end it required
    AddType application/x-octet-stream exe
being applied.
Thanks to all the answerers who pointed me that way.

Halbert Gober
Organ Builder
love the music and I love to make what makes the music", says Halbert Gober. What Hal makes are organs…Tracker organs, to be precise. Hal comes from Texas, and it was at the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Baytown, Texas, that his infatuation with organs began when he was in his early teens.
Hal started to study organ building in 1976, apprenticing in Regensburg, Germany with Georg Jann, in the classical tradition. Upon coming to Canada in 1981, he worked in Mont-St-Hilaire, Québec for an established builder who had played a role in re-introducing the art of building tracker, or purely mechanical organs. Tracker action, the original form of organ action, was utilized from the dawn of the instrument's history in the Middle Ages, until the early 20th century, when it was eclipsed by electric action, especially in North America. Tracker action refers to the slender strips of wood that connect the keys to the pipe valves, assuring the most direct, sensitive, and dependable link between the musician and the instrument.
In 1991, Hal set up shop in Toronto and started building handcrafted historical tracker organs. His work is on the cutting edge of design concepts, incorporating the best of the old and the new. "Our instruments draw on the full heritage of historical organ building." He is quick to note, however, that blind adherence to historical principles does not make great organs; he does not make copies. Hal says with justifiable pride: "Some people assemble parts. We build from scratch.
"The challenge is to go into a church and conceive and build an organ which maximises the luscious beauty of the flutes and the vigour and gutsiness of the principals and reed…always within the setting of mainstream music…always within the setting of the specific church."
The location of an organ and the acoustical environment of the space constitute essential parts of the sound system, so Hal's skill in the proper placement of the instrument is as important as his skill in its construction.
Hal's practical approach to tonal design is based on a synthesis of classical, symphonic, and modern principles. It has allowed him to develop a tonal palette of great variety, in which the colour of individual stops is developed to the fullest extent.
Hal met an especially interesting architectural and engineering challenge when he designed the organ for the Church of the Good Shepherd in Brooklyn, Ohio. The church has a high ceiling but no balcony, so "We took full advantage of the height of the church by placing a majestically tall, free-standing case over the aisle just inside the double entry doors of the church. This placed the pipes of all three divisions near the ceiling for optimal sound propagation." Hal made this organ as visually dramatic as its sound. Photos of this organ bring Schelling's famous words to mind: "Architecture is frozen music…since it is music in space."
Not only does Hal build organs; he also consults on organ pipemaking and voices tracker organs in North America and Europe. In addition, he is the curator of the celebrated collection of more than two dozen organs at the Oberlin College Conservatory of Music in Oberlin, Ohio.
Our community is fortunate to have Hal building his magnificent instruments in Elora, at his facility next to Jefferson Elora Corporation plant. This is where Hal melts ingots of tin and casts them into metal sheets, which are then fashioned into pipes. This is where the rough wood is worked and crafted into organ components, where every piece is handcrafted and tested for musicality and dependability.
Hal and his wife Laurette Larocque moved to this area five years ago. The polyphonic music of nature surrounds their home, perched on the banks of the Grand River in Fergus. What made Hal choose the area? While working in Quebec two decades ago, a Toronto friend mentioned a beautiful small Ontario town and its arts community. When the time came that he no longer enjoyed being in Toronto, he and Laurette started looking around Elora and soon found a house to their liking…though Hal travels a lot in his work.
The location of an organ and the acoustical environment of the space constitute essential parts of the sound system.
The boy from Texas who builds organs is soft-spoken. He hides a Cheshire cat smile under his beard. Hal is reluctant to speak about himself, but the words flow when he has a chance to expound on the organs he so loves. He plays the organ just well enough to voice it, and has a special affection for that all-important process.
Who is Hal's favourite composer for the organ? Johann Sebastian Bach, of course. As a youth, Hal liked the most robust and energetic pieces, but he has come to appreciate the more subtle works. It is fitting that this perfectionist organ builder should love Bach's organ music, of which it has been said that it blends science with poetry, technique with emotion, virtuosity with nobility of thought, as no other music has, before or since.
by Riki Weiland, Winter 2001
Hal's most recent, and, to date, largest organ, has just been completed for First Church in Oberlin, joining that distinguished collection as a teaching organ of the renowned Conservatory.
Another just-completed project is the restoration of a 19th century organ for an historic preservation society for St. Patrick's Church in Lagro, Indiana. That organ had stood unplayed for more than 50 years – vandalized, its pipes sold for scrap and recovered as a pile of twisted metal. All of the skills needed to build a new organ were brought to bear in bringing that instrument back to life.


Everyone send virtual love, happy thoughts and good wishes to my (recently delinquent) co-blogger, Ralphie and his wife, Alison tonight.
If everything goes according to plan, they will have a new bundle of joy sometime tonight or tomorrow morning. While the thought of any of my friends raising children still totally weirds me out....I know Al and Ralph will be really wonderful parents.
I can't wait to meet baby Maura!
Just wanted to say hi... sorry I'm not around to blog this week, had to set this up on Friday to say hi mid-week so you all wouldn't forget about me while I was gone..
We're just hanging out most likely on one of the underwater barstools (pictured below)..sippin on some frozen cocktails ...you know how it is... Hope everyone is having a great week!
I couldn't leave for vacation (TOMORROW!!) without reviewing the restaurant we went to for dinner last night. Even though I still have a couple restaurants waiting to be reviewed...this one is getting moved up. It was de.li.cious.
It is located in Clifton down by Cincinnati State. I pass it a couple of times a week and have always wanted to try it, but then when I found out it was a BYOB, I was even more intrigued. Rob and I decided to go last night and I'm not gonna lie, I could go back there and eat again tonight. We grabbed a bottle of wine from the Ludlow wine shop (savignon blanc to be exact- goes great with spicy food) and headed to the restaurant. Right off the bat, the service was great. I have the tendency to be a very inquisitive eater... I ask millions of questions.. I'm curious about food and like to know what the waiter/waitresses' favorite thing on the menu is and why....and how was this cooked, etc. She happily answered our ten million questions.
First we ordered a mixed appetizer dish...it was lots of things that were fried, which I didnt really realize in advance, and for that reason probably wouldnt order again, but what made it delicious was the sauce medley that came with it... spicy onions, a mix of mint and parsley and some kind of sweet deliciousness... Anything dipped in those sauces would have been yummy...so next time I would probably order something healthier to dip into the deliciousness.
For dinner I ordered the lamb saag (oh.my.goodness) It was spicy and delicious, the lamb was tender and fell apart when you poked it with the fork. It was the best lamb saag I've ever had. period. Rob ordered Chicken Tikka made in a tandori oven, which was also delcious...and apparantly much more healthy since it doesnt have any cream in it. His dish was probably enough food to feed a family of three and he brought a ton of leftovers home (never a bad thing)...He absolutely loved this dish and said he would probably get it again next time we came. We also split one garlic naan which was huge and garlicy..just the way I like it.
When we were done with our meal they gave us one more little round sweet fried thing, that was soaking in a sweet sauce...kind of like an Indian donut of sorts.. I'm not a sweets eater, so I had one bite and gave there rest to Rob and he happily finished it off. I always think its nice when restaurants give you a last little sweet bite at the end of your meal.
I apologize for no pictures on this post, but i didnt really think about it at the time. But do yourself a favor and eat at this restaurant....you will thank me later.
I have always wanted to make my own hummus, but have never gotten around to it. So recently I was on the prowl to find Tahini so that I could finally start experimenting. After looking at a couple of grocery stores for it (with little to no help from the employees) I FINALLY found it at biggs..... only it was a huge jug of it for $15....not even sure whether it would be good or not, I was not ready to make an investment in a $15 bottle of tahini...so imagine my excitement when I found a reasonable sized bottle of it at Biggs on Sunday!
We finally got around to making some last night.. and lets just say the $15 bottle would have been a good investment...because this stuff was some deliciousness in a bowl. It was smooth, garlicy and SERIOUSLY tasty.... I am so excited to experiment with other flavors!
Combine lemon juice and water in a small bowl or measuring cup. Whisk together tahini and 2 tablespoons oil in second small bowl or measuring cup. Set aside 2 tablespoons chickpeas for garnish.
Process remaining chickpeas, garlic, salt, cumin and cayenne in food processor until almost fully ground, about 15 seconds. Scrape down bowl with rubber spatula With machine running, add lemon juice-water mixture in steady stream through food tube. Scrape down bowl and continue to process for 1 minute. With machine running, add oil-tahini mixture in steady stream through food tube, continue to process until hummus is smooth and creamy, about 15 seconds, scraping down bowl as needed.
Transfer hummus to serving bowl, sprinkle reserved chickpeas and cilantro over surface, cover with plastic wrap and let stand until flavors meld, at least 30 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.
I've been lucky enough to hear this gem of a song lately on the radio..
Would Helen Keller rock out to this song (assuming she wasn't deaf) or would she file some sort of suit against "3oh!3"?
I have been MIA. I know this. I have been packing, moving, unpacking, working, schooling, kickballing, dog walking and (unsuccessfully) sleeping.
I know some of you are really interested in California Part 2, but seriously...it's been like 3 weeks and it doesn't seem all that relevant anymore, so let's wrap it up quickly.
After that we headed to a little town right outside of the city (the name escapes me)- but I can only describe it as the Mt. Adams of San Francisco (if Downtown Cincinnati was bigger, more beautiful and was on a body of water a little fancier than the Ohio River) but you get the point....it was right outside of the city, with gorgeous views of the city.. just a quaint little town with little restaurants, shops and bars. We had a (very) late lunch/early dinner at this restaurant...so cute! and yummy. I had these ridiculously delicious short ribs with homemade barbeque sauce (not pictured) that I'm pretty sure the rest of the table was food envious of.
The last day we were there, Rob and I drove around town a little in his parents car (while pretty sure all the native Californians were making fun of us behind our backs for driving around with the top down on a 100+ degree day), had lunch outside at a cute little brunch place and then had some late afternoon drinks and snacks at his parents house...All and all it was a great trip!


A popular feature of AMOC Racing's meetings is the Pre-War Team Challenge, which are run as handicap events and attract a host of classic cars – and at Silverstone last week also a successful current driver in Richard Bradley, out in an Aston Martin Ulster just a week after winning the European Le Mans Series race at Spa-Francorchamps in an LMP2 ORECA-Gibson.
A former LMP2 category winner at Le Mans, Richard continued that theme with a win in the Silverstone race, and we caught up with him after qualifying at the circuit to talk about his love for historic racing, and just how different it is to go quick in the Aston Martin.
"I'm racing a 1935 Aston Martin Ulster today, very much a contrast with the prototype I was racing at Spa last weekend but at the end of the day it has four wheels, a steering wheel, and you just drive it as fast as you can. I much prefer a car like this, if something goes wrong with the prototype here isn't much you can do about it as a driver, it isn't actually that skilful when you press a see a red light and press a button to change gear.
"The Aston has no syncromesh, and the throttle is the middle pedal, so you have to double de-clutch on the up-shifts, and when you are braking, with the middle peddle and the size of my feet I have to go flat out, put my right foot on the right pedal (the brake) my left foot on the clutch, put it into neutral, then take my right foot off the brake halfway through the braking zone and accelerate as hard to get as many revs as I can, then drop the clutch and use it as engine braking. To be honest, these car cable operated drum brakes so coming off them in the braking zone doesn't do much as they are pretty ineffective anyway!
"In a prototype you just hold on and the computers take care of everything for you, but in the Aston Martin you are an integral part of everything that is happening. Your every action has a direct effect on what is happening, we have leaf springs on the car so the more you lean over, the more grip you have, just like a motorbike, and I love it!
"I have never done a handicap race before, but this is my fourth time out in this car and it is going well, we were on pole at Snetterton a few weeks ago but had a problem in the race. I feel that racing this keeps me sharp for my other racing, you are so involved in racing this car that you have to be technically aware of what is going on, and you have to have a lot of feeling for what is going on.
"I'd love to take this car round Spa, I think Eau Rouge would be flat, though with leaf springs I would avoid some of the kerbs! Pre-War racing seems to be getting more popular, we had 45-cars out at the Silverstone Classic, and my dad and I are looking to do more races on the Continent next year.
"I'd love to see a pre-war endure, a six-hours or something. These cars were designed to do long races, there were 20 Aston Martin Ulsters built and the factory had a team at Le Mans, in their time they were the equivalent of the GT Pro cars we have today. They look like old cars, but they were the prototypes of their time, and yes, they slide round corners but that is what they were designed to do – they slide perfectly, I can slide the Aston Martin much more easily than an LMP2!


Baisakhi, also known as Vaisakhi, is mainly a Sikh festival that falls on the 13th or 14th of April each year. It is celebrated with great pomp and show in Punjab as well as other parts of the country.
Baisakhi is basically a Sikh festival that marks the New Year for the Sikh community. It is also celebrated by people from the Hindu community. It is a way of honouring the Khalsa Panth of the warriors under Guru Gobind Singh. The Khalsa Panth was formed in the year 1699. Here are some short and long essays on Baisakhi of varying lengths to help you with the topic in your exams, class tests, essay writing competition, etc.
The day saw the beginning of the Sikh order post the persecution and execution of Guru Tegh Bahadur who refused to convert to Islam as ordered by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. This led to the coronation of the tenth Sikh Guru and the formation of the Khalsa Panth. Both these events occurred on the Baisakhi Day. The formation of the Khalsa Panth is celebrated each year on this day.
This is an ancient Hindu festival that marked the Solar New Year. The Hindus also celebrate spring harvest on this day.
The Gurudwaras are decorated with lights and flowers all over on this day and kirtans are held to celebrate this auspicious day. Nagar kirtan processions are also held at several places across the country and large numbers of people take part in these. People sing holy songs, burst crackers and distribute sweets during these processions. So prayers are offered and people also enjoy and celebrate this festival by way of these huge processions.
Many people go to nearby rivers or lakes during the early morning on this day to take a holy dip before visiting the Gurudwaras. Visiting the Gurudwaras is a ritual on this day. People dress up in new clothes and go to their local Gurudwaras to offer prasad and prayers. Many also head to the Golden Temple located in Amritsar, Punjab which is considered to be the holiest Gurudwara in Sikhism.
Apart from this, community fairs are organized. People visit these fairs to relish good food and enjoy games and rides. Many people organize get together at their home to socialize with their neighbors and relatives.
Hindus also celebrate this festival by taking a dip in holy rivers such as Ganga, Kaveri and Jhelum and visiting temples. They organize get together and enjoy festive foods with their near and dear ones as a part of the celebration. The festival is known by different names in Hinduism including Pohela Boishakh in Bengal, Bohag Bihu or Rangali Bihu in Assam and other North Eastern states in India, Vishu in Kerela, and Puthandu in Tamil Nadu. It marks the first day of the year for these communities.
The festival is celebrated for various reasons by different communities however what remains at the core of this festival is the idea to offer prayers, socialize and enjoy good food. There is immense joy and excitement among the people on this day.


Just another big change for 2018, we would like to welcome this little spitfire! Juno came to us at 8 weeks of age from VonStoisch Rottweilers in Quebec, special thanks to Marie-Josee Gallant for entrusting us with her.
Juno is truly keeping it all in the family for us as she is sired by Grady's half brother Alasdair and her dam, Prada, is our Scotia's cousin. That is truly the main reason why when I found out MJ was breeding this litter, I wanted a part of it if it was in the cards. And here we are 🙂 We are very grateful.
Juno came along with the big girls to her first dog show at 3 months of age and she took all the crazy smells, sounds, sights at a dog show in stride!
Juno started her show career in August 2018 at the Rottweiler Club of Canada Regional Specialty with a second in class showing in the Baby Puppy Female Class. The following day she went Best Baby Puppy in Breed and showed really well!
In April 2019, Juno, at 14 months old, earned her Novice Trick Dog title and her Herding Instinct Certification (HIC) all in one week, as well she also cleared her OFA Eye certification which will be posted to her OFA page once I have a chance to send it in!

Facebook falsely claims wife of conservative blogger not a real person
Faye Higbee
Wendy Newby is the wife of Conservative Firing Line Marine veteran owner, Joe Newby. Last week, Facebook disabled her account, claiming that she is not a real person. There has been no action, as of this writing, to reverse their false claim, other than to obtain her profile email address.
Wendy has been on Facebook for many years as herself, and has done nothing to violate the site's terms and conditions. She has no extra accounts.
"She's done absolutely nothing to warrant this and uses FB to communicate with her Sunday School assistants, our family and help share some of our posts." Joe Newby, Wendy's husband
Last Wednesay, Joe went to verify her account because she is an admin on the Conservative Firing Line Facebook page. That's when he learned that Facebook disabled her account, claiming she wasn't who she said she was. When he followed the link they provided, this is what he found:
Wendy is highly upset at the insinuation, although she would like to know who Facebook thinks she really is, if she isn't herself.
If you're not you, who are you? Just wondering.
It is likely someone reported her for some vindictive reason, although since Joe has not had any answers yet from Facebook, no one knows for certain.
The social media giant has been banning, removing, censoring, shadow-banning and in general being ridiculous about conservatives and their posts for a long time. Joe describes their actions as "Orwellian." That's an understatement if they are removing people's accounts as being not a real person. There are myriads of fake accounts on the social media site, but she is not one of them.
Joe Newby is also the co-author of a book that is highly critical of Facebook practices called "Banned: How Facebook Enables Militant Islamic Jihad" with American-Israeli Adina Kutnicki. Amazon link here or click on the picture
Whether or not his involvement with that book and/or his blog has anything to do with this incident is unknown at this point.
But we can verify: Wendy Newby is a real person who has been on Facebook for many years.

ResMed Creates Online Resource Hub In Honor of COPD Awareness Month
The site collects information about treatment options and research on COPD, one of the leading causes of death in the U.S.
By Haley Samsel
In honor of COPD Awareness Month, sleep therapy and respiratory equipment maker ResMed has created a collection of online resources and educational materials about treatment options for patients and the latest research on the condition.
An estimated 251 million people worldwide have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which obstructs airflow from the lungs and progressively makes it harder for patients to breathe. ResMed's site collects tips for living with COPD and the leading treatments and products for the disease, including portable oxygen concentrators, ventilators and more.
Site visitors can also sign up for email alerts from ResMed that will be sent out when new research is published about COPD or treatment options become available.
In announcing the resource, ResMed Respiratory Care President Richie McHale pointed to alarming statistics showing that COPD is one of the leading causes of death in the United States and around the world. With the situation becoming more dire, more patients need to be educated about the disease and their options, he said.
"It's more important than ever that we support and educate the growing COPD community with readily available information that can help improve quality of life for millions," McHale said.
Haley Samsel is the Associate Content Editor of HME Business and Mobility Management.

What is the duration of the obligation to child support in Italy? – Legal advice by an Italian qualified lawyer specialized in family law
In Italy, the spouses can improve autonomously the separation agreements
Marzorati Law Firm | Italian Lawyers & Law Firm in Italy | Divorce in Italy
When two spouses get a separation pursuant to the Italian applicable law, they can improve autonomously their separation agreements, i.e. without turning to the competent Court. Some limits are provided with this option, that's why it is highly advisable that husband and wife may turn to an Italian qualified lawyer specialized in family law who could explain to them about very important all possible consequences from the economic standpoint provided for under the Italian law as well as of all the possible consequences. It is worth noting that the same regulation is also valid in case of a divorce.
Who, for example, could improve autonomously the agreements issued during the separation proceeding, pursuant to the Italian law:
An Italian citizen and a foreign citizen, both residing not in Italy but abroad;
Two Italian citizens, both residing not in Italy but abroad;
Two foreign citizens, residing not in Italy but abroad and who got married in Italy or had lived in Italy or had decided to apply the Italian law;
An Italian citizen and a foreign citizen, both residing in Italy;
Two Italian citizens, both residing in Italy;
Two foreign citizens, both residing in Italy.
Pursuant to Italian law, any delay or lack of payment concerning alimony and/or child support is considered as a serious breach of contract that could be severely sanctioned.
When the parties enter into an ameliorative agreement, they must take into consideration the kind of legal protection to apply.
The effectiveness of the extrajudicial separation agreements in Italy: what happens if the parents modify the agreement(s) without turning again to the competent Italian Court
Let's analyse the situation from the beginning by means of a concrete example. Husband and wife decide to get a separation. Together they managed to enter into an agreement concerning the economic relationships and to rule the terms and conditions concerning alimony and child support and their agreement has been homologated by the competent Italian Court.
Two years after the separation, the father changes job, attracted by the prospect not only of earning more, but also to be able to have more free time at his disposal. He therefore spontaneously decides to raise the alimony monthly amount that he pays to his wife, in order to provide her with the management of daily expenses. Furthermore, the husband also increases (pursuant to the new amendment of the agreement entered into by husband and wife) the number of weekly visits to the children, who now remain to sleep in husband's new house also a couple of intra-weekly nights more.
The wife accepts the amendment quite willingly, but after some months, she starts worrying about possible consequences that could arise out of an amendment of the agreement not expressly approved by the competent Italian Court: could the husband all of a sudden stop paying the increased amounts? Could the husband have the right to claim the restitution of what previously paid in excess in comparison with the agreements issued and homologated by the Court?
How to proceed to protect ameliorative agreements in Italy
It has to be clarified that the value of the ameliorative amendments, entered into by the spouses after the homologation of the separation sentence, to the agreements occurred by the spouses during the legal separation proceeding is admitted, provided that these amendments are ameliorative ones. The amendments shall not modify the rights and obligations that shall remain in force also after the separation. In case of ameliorative amendments regarding child support (right of visiting or alimony), any possible amendment may be valid provided that the interest of the minors is not penalized. For example, if the father decides to move abroad and also decides to agree with the wife to visit the children only once per year as a consideration for a raise of the alimony and child support amount, this agreement shall not be valid.
We need to take into consideration that the "new" regulation, not being homologated by the competent Italian Court, has only an unofficial effectiveness. It means that the wife will not have to be afraid of possible request of reimbursement. If, instead, the husband will suddenly fail to respect the new unofficial amendments, the wife will not be able to act by means of an injunction for collecting the new unpaid amounts, because in case of breach of contract only the agreement entered into by the spouses during the legal separation proceeding will be effective. The wife shall proceed, with the legal advice of an Italian qualified lawyer specialized in family law, to file an appeal (ricorso) to request the enforcement of the extrajudicial occurred agreed amendments, so to obtain the official recognition of these amendments in order to be able to request in the future also its enforcement before the competent Italian Court. After having obtained the recognition of these new amendments, the husband shall be obliged to respect also these new duties and, in case of breach of agreement, the wife will be able to ask for the enforcement of these duties also by means of a deed of injunction (precetto) and by means of a foreclosure (pignoramento).
Marzorati Law Firm is specialised in family law, also internationally, and its lawyers usually deal with separations, divorces, child support and family support.

I'm quite new to this whole Toon rooting thing but I wanted to try it out.
So I bought 2 Toons online, followed the instructions and voila, first Toon rooted and working!
When I connect the USB FTDI I get no output on screen, at all.
I tried Putty and Minicom via RPI but no luck. When I use the same wires and FTDI unit on the first Toon it always works fine.
Scratch that, I think I wrecked it now.
Tried to open it again but now it only gives a black screen. Not even the clicks on the thermostaat module.
I do measure 24V on the 2 power supply pins.
Guess I'll save it for parts while I try to find a third one.
First sign of live on a Toon 1 is the serial output. If that isn't working it is dead.
Even openocd need the toon to 'boot up' normally and therefore give serial output.
Reading your first post it seems that the Toon was already at this point from the moment you started.
Likely are that they have tried that serial port with a 5v connection, then you will break that port.
Maybe your reset button is stuck in the housing?
I have had that once, thought i bricked it, but the reset button is keeping pressed.

T.I. vs. T.I.P.
T.I. | Atlantic
By DOMINIQUE HENDELMAN | August 20, 2007
In 1886, it was The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde: dark versus light, yin versus yang. In the summer of 2007, it's a reprise of "T.I. vs. T.I.P.," the dichotomy T.I. covered four years ago on his Trap Muzik, where T.I.P., his hardcore/street side, battled T.I., his level-headed side. The result was one of the best tracks off that album. But parlaying three minutes into 45 isn't easy. In "Act I," T.I.P. flips out on his label and launches a tirade that doesn't abate for the first seven tracks. T.I.P. gems include the Mannie Fresh insta-hit "Big Shit Poppin,' " the Khao-produced "Watch What You Say to Me" with Jay-Z, and the Danja-produced "Hurt" with Busta Rhymes and Grand Hustle affiliate Alfamega. In "Act II," T.I. wakes to the destruction his alter ego has caused and wrests control. The album falters when its pace slows, as on the abysmal Nelly duet "Show It to Me" and the Runners-produced "Don't You Wanna Be High." On "Help Is Coming," however, Just Blaze recycles the sample from Roc-a-Fella's "4 Da Fam," and Eminem's breezy brass march on "Touchdown" allows T.I. to switch up his flow. By the time T.I. and T.I.P. confront each other in "Act III," the differences between the two have become trivial. In exploring his split psyche, T.I. forgets what made the excursion interesting to begin with: there's good and evil in everyone, but you gotta mix the two to get a reaction.
