Surrey Police: Enabling Project Assurance
Surrey Police is committed to providing the best possible policing service to the people of Surrey, which includes driving improved efficiency and delivery across the organisation, from front line policing to the back office.
As part of this, an in-house change support team, the Force Improvement Team, was established to lead the way in best practice project delivery.
Typical projects range from continuous improvement programmes through to capital schemes, such as new facilities. The remit for the Force Improvement Team was to set standards and give guidance and support while maintaining an overall view of some 200 change projects.
Essential to this was replacing the Excel-based system with a mature, value for money Enterprise Project Management (EPM) platform offering a single project repository with clear and common processes, reporting, collaboration and coordination and which enabled improved decision making, governance and better management of resources and documents.
"There had been no consistency," explained John Barrett, project assurance consultant with the Force Improvement Team. "We had many different reports all based on Excel and Word with summaries that could be up to 18 pages long and everyone wanted to save documents in different locations or save multiple copies."
A key issue was highlight reporting, which the Force Improvement Team hoped to replicate directly from the EPM solution into Excel dashboards. Program Framework was able to configure this solution, resulting in a more efficient process. The new system was first rolled out to the Force Improvement Team's Project Management Office, who set up and populated projects and started risk and issue logs.
The solution is built on a Microsoft technology platform and includes Microsoft Project Server 2010, Microsoft Project Professional 2010, Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise CAL, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 with Reporting Services, Excel Services. This combination of technologies provides users with the ability to collaborate effectively, and gives management the control and visibility they require to make effective decisions. The deployment was based on Program Framework's pre-configured Project Server Framework™. This provides a pre-packaged set of configured features, additional software tools and out-of-the- box reports that support common processes and helped to accelerate the Project Server implementation while reducing deployment cost.
Said Gero Renker, director of Program Framework: "Surrey Police now has the tools to work more efficiently, share information across boundaries, have greater clarity of that information, to deliver the right projects to a higher quality with the right people and reduce the burden of administration."
"It's going to make a massive improvement in the efficiency of managing and coordinating projects – and in our ability to find documents where there has been an instant time saving because people no longer have to come to us to ask where they can find something,"
"Gero Renker and the team from Program Framework were brilliant. We set them quite a challenge but they were fantastic and flexible, going above and beyond to work out a solution that was exactly what we needed. It inspired confidence in them and their abilities."

Briarcliff's Overtime Goal Ends the Panthers' Four-Year Reign
June 5, 2019 By Andy Jacobs
Briarcliff's Matt Waterhouse heads toward the cage
in the sectional final against Pleasantville.
Matt Waterhouse had already scored a game-high four goals when last Thursday afternoon's Section One, Class D championship at Lakeland High School headed to overtime.
His fifth, though, eclipsed all the others and will long be remembered at Briarcliff High School.
The freshman midfielder's missile-on-the-move shot from right of the cage 45 seconds into the tense and dramatic extra session found the back of the net, propelling the second-seeded Bears to a 9-8 victory and their first-ever lacrosse championship, while bringing a crushing end to Pleasantville's four-year reign as sectional titlists.
"My first inclination was to go to the cage," said Waterhouse afterwards, recreating the moment he and his teammates won't ever forget. "And when I went to the cage, I didn't think I was gonna hit that last shot. But I did. I'm still so shocked by it. Oh my, I froze. I was just shocked. The whole team came running and they tackled me."
Waterhouse's decisive goal enabled the Bears to avoid what would have been an epic collapse after building a five-goal lead in the third quarter and then allowing the fourth-seeded Panthers to roar back and eventually tie the score with two improbable goals in the last 33 seconds.
"Unbelievable," said Bears head coach Al Meola shortly after his jubilant players had been handed their championship plaque. "We knew it was gonna be tough. We knew it wasn't gonna be easy. At the end of the day, it was a great game. If you're a spectator, you loved that game. If you're a coach, you lost some time off your ticker. But we got the 'W.' That's all we care about right now. We're moving on."
In a rematch of the 2017 Class C final and last year's Class D semifinal, both won by the Panthers, the third time proved to be the charm for Briarcliff. Waterhouse, a lanky speedster whose acceleration ability will likely create many headaches for opposing coaches over the next few years, served notice that he was up for the challenge when he sent a lefty rocket past Panther goalie Brian Wilson just 76 seconds after the opening face-off to put the Bears on the scoreboard first.
Pleasantville managed to tie the game midway through the first quarter on a goal by senior star Jack Howe, who had scored six times, highlighted by his winner in overtime, during Monday's 11-10 road victory over top-seeded Bronxville. But the Bears regained the lead again when Waterhouse made a long run from the left corner across the field before firing a one-hopper into the net with 59 seconds left in the period.
The Bears' Jack Ricciardi tries to dodge his way past
Pleasantville's Ray Raefski in the Class D title game.
The Bears scored again just past the midway point of the second quarter on Noah Benson's shot from left of the cage, assisted by Jack Ricciardi, with P'ville down a man. Briarcliff's lead grew to 5-1 with 3:03 left in the half after goals by Kyle Proctor and Waterhouse just 34 seconds apart. A goal by Pleasantville's Jack Halloran just before the buzzer sounded enabled the Panthers to leave the field at halftime with a bit more belief.
"We felt very confident coming into the game," said disappointed Panthers coach Chris Kear. "We felt we had a good game plan, and I think overall we just made too many mental errors and countless turnovers that came back to bite us."
If Halloran's last-second goal gave the Panthers some much-needed momentum, it didn't last long. Less than two minutes into the third quarter, Ricciardi, another of the Bears' promising freshmen, came around from the back of the cage and fired a lefty shot past Wilson from right of the crease.
Waterhouse, already with a hat trick in the first half, added his fourth goal of the day with a low shot on the run that extended Briarcliff's big lead to 7-2 with 6:57 remaining in the third quarter. But the Bears wouldn't score again over the next 12 minutes of playing time. Meanwhile, the Panthers began a comeback bid with Matt May's shot into an open cage 22 seconds after the goal by Waterhouse.
Howe's second goal of the afternoon, past screened Briarcliff goalie Ian Leahy, cut the Panther deficit to 7-4 with 2:07 left in the quarter. Pleasantville, forced to play without leading scorer Jake Coleman, who injured his shoulder in the Bronxville game, got even closer when Pat Doherty made a cross-crease pass to Jack Roye, who converted from the left doorstep with 33 seconds to go in the period.
Briarcliff finally ended its scoring drought as Proctor came from behind the cage and set up Spencer Rockmore in front for a goal that gave the Bears an 8-5 cushion with 6:36 left in the contest. As the clock ticked down to under five minutes, it seemed a Briarcliff coronation was inevitable.
"At times, it seemed like they were giving up even when there was a lot of time left in the game," said the Panthers' Kear about his players. "You never give up. If we had not given up so soon, I think we would've been fine."
Still, the Panthers' 'drive for five' was hardly finished. Halloran, with Howe screening the goalie, sent a blistering shot into the cage with 4:40 remaining. That set the stage for a final minute that defied any logic. Pleasantville, despite being down a man, got a goal from Roye with 33 seconds on the clock, then forced a key turnover with 11 seconds to go.
Howe quickly passed the ball up the field and May, running hard to his right, shot the ball past Leahy with three seconds left, tying the score and leaving the stunned Bears in disbelief.
"Yeah, that was tough," said Meola. "We had time to kill, get in the box and run some stuff. We called a timeout. We didn't execute what we wanted. I think they sort of got a little nervous and rattled. Keeping it in and all the pressure, and Pleasantville did a great job. We made those mistakes, so we made it interesting. I was just trying to tell everyone to 'hit the reset button. Everyone needs to calm down. We're gonna be fine. We've got the ball.'"
The Bears did have the ball to start overtime, but a clutch save by Wilson on a shot from Anthony Capasso gave Pleasantville momentary possession. Unfortunately for the Panthers, Wilson's clearing pass toward midfield was picked off by Proctor. Moments later, the Bears came out of a timeout with their fortunes about to be decided by Waterhouse, who was able to run past Brennan McDermott and release his decisive shot just before help could arrive.
"We went into a set we call 'Ohio,' which is sort of like an open set," said Meola. "We masked it like we weren't in it and then he (Waterhouse) came around the top. He set up his dodge and we cleared through and he was able to get that shot off. It's still so surreal, honestly."
"I was so shocked that this was happening," said Waterhouse, who was instantly greeted by all his giddy teammates behind the cage. "Yeah, there was definitely a lot of weight on top of me. But, honestly, we're all full of happiness and great emotion."
"I was just so nervous," conceded Meola, whose first title ironically came on the campus of the same school he once played for. "If we lost in overtime, I think I would've been heartbroken going home on that bus. I wouldn't have been able to sleep for a while, just kind of playing it back in your head all the time."
That misfortune now awaits Kear, who has led Pleasantville to seven consecutive appearances in sectional finals.
"We definitely had our chances, but hats off to Briarcliff because they played well and they took care of their opportunities," he said. "It's just one of those days where we just didn't bring our 'A' game and they did, and that was the difference in the game. We were just waiting for that spark and it just didn't materialize."

Q: Fock space vs. wavefunctionals There are at least two representations of the Hilbert spaces of quantum field theory. For a scalar field, we have
The Fock space representation, such that every state is represented as the Fock space of 'one particle' representations,
$$\mathcal H = \bigoplus_{n = 0}^\infty \text{Sym}(\mathcal H_1^{\otimes n})$$
with $\mathcal H_1^0 = \mathbb C$ and $\mathcal H_1 = \mathcal L^2(\Bbb R^3)$.
The wavefunctional representation, such that every state is represented by a functional on the space of configurations of the field on $\Bbb R^3$ which is square integrable with respect to some measure
$$\mathcal H = \mathcal L^2(\mathcal F[C(\Bbb R^3)], d\mu[\phi])$$
Since those two representations describe the same theory, I am guessing that there is some isomorphism between the two, but what would it be?

A: The two representations are not equivalent, except for free fields, and hence in perturbation theory.
Nonperturbatively, the Fock space representation is inappropriate (because of Haag's theorem, which asserts that the Hilbert space of an interacting relativistic quantum field theory has no natural Fock space structure; see the discussions at Haag's theorem and practical QFT computations and State space of interacting theories) whereas the wave functional representation (i.e., the functional Schroedinger picture) may still work - it can capture a lot of nonperturbative information such as instantons.
In the functional Schroedinger picture, states of a QFT are treated as functionals of the field coordinates in the same way as states in QM are treated as functions of the position coordinates. A thorough discussion of the functional Schroedinger picture is in the article by Jackiw,  Analysis on infinite dimensional manifolds: Schrodinger representation for quantized fields (p.78-143 of the linked document). A problem is that the infinite-dimensional measure is not really well-defined, it is given formally (i.e., nonrigorously) by a functional integral.

Alexander Ciccolo, 26, is a son of a Boston police captain has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for an ISIS-inspired terrorist plot — three years after his father tipped off federal law enforcement. Alexander Ciccolo went by the name Ali Al Amriki. His father, Robert Ciccolo, noted his son's admiration of the terrorist group and alerted the FBI. Alexander was arrested in July 2015 after a sting operation in which he accepted firearms that were illegal due to an earlier conviction. He was also recorded discussing plans that involved filling pressure cookers with black powder, nails and ball bearings, according to the federal prosecutors' statement. When law enforcement searched his apartment, they found partially made Molotov cocktails.
Terrorism has changed dramatically in recent years. Attacks by groups with defined chains of command have become rarer, as the prevalence of terrorist networks, autonomous cells, and, in rare cases, individuals, has grown. ISIS has changed the face of global jihadi communication. By packaging its warped ideology in slick magazines and Hollywood-esque propaganda videos, ISIS has used the Internet to spread its message aggressively.
It is a known fact that Terrorist attacks will not be foiled by increased regulation, censorship of online content alone. But by ensuring there are sufficient efforts challenging the poisonous ideology of Islamist extremism and that it has less room to operate in, society can address the common thread that underpins the violence. Technology can support HUMINT in ways unimaginable before. One such technology that promises to deliver proven results is iCognative by Brainwave Science. Unlike other technologies that fail to fit the bid for law enforcement agencies, Brainwave Science has developed a technology specifically keeping the user in mind. Patent-free P300 science behind iCognative has been elevated to unprecedented levels of accuracy by expert technological teams at Brainwave Science. Utilization of cutting edge algorithms and robust analysis engine along with delivery of technology as SAAS model make it virtually incomparable to anything in the market today. Highly accurate and customer centric Brainwave Science technology taps directly into the source of all criminal information – human brain.
Specific crime related details are retrieved from the memory of the perpetrator and confirmed with over 99.9% accuracy. Investigation details, including case facts in the form of words, phrases, images, etc., is flashed on a screen while a suspect observes these details (Stimuli) wearing a non-invasive EEG headset. Human rights compliant and programmed to be exceptionally accurate, this widely applicable Brainwave Science technology has capability to confirm all details concealed in the brain of Alexander Ciccolo aka Ali Al Amriki. FBI counter terrorism and counter intelligence agents who investigate cases of domestic terrorism and online radicalization would feel empowered with troves of intelligence after conducting system driven iCognative test. All the unknowns, missing links and hidden details regarding Alexander's connections with ISIS operatives, planned attacks, knowledge of other lone-wolves, operational methodology, bombs other than pressure-cooker bombs he planned to use, financial support he received from terrorist sympathizers., etc., can all be uncovered with utilization of iCognative technology by Brainwave Science. Additionally, the key witness in the case can be subjected to the test to confirm his/her testimonies as well. Within 45 minutes truth regarding all terrorism related actions carried out or planned can be exposed to law enforcement agencies in Boston.
Terrorism takes the lives of innocents and there is no doubt about that. Boston Marathon bombers were ruthless killers who deserved no mercy or forgiveness. Past cannot be changed but the use of iCognative technology can very well serve as a warning to any potential criminals who think they would not see the light of justice and the whole network of supporters won't be penalized. Deploy life-saving iCognative technology in its most advanced form developed and provided only by Brainwave Science. Zero in on all terrorists and terrorism sympathizers, entrust law enforcement with cutting edge technology that digs up deep in a criminal's brain for specific crime related concealed information – iCognative by Brainwave Science is the technology for today's world.

4.3 Goofs
Scully helps Mulder to fake his own death in an effort to discover which members of the FBI they can trust before the agents individually search for an answer to Scully's cancer.
Beginning 24 hours before the last scene of the previous episode, a distraught Fox Mulder sits in his apartment. He receives a phone call from Michael Kritschgau, who tells him that 'they' may be listening. Mulder, spotting a small hole in his ceiling rushes upstairs and bursts into the apartment above his. Inside he finds Ostelhoff burning phone records. When Ostlehoff reaches for his gun Mulder shoots him. Mulder meets Dana Scully (played by Gillian Anderson) at her apartment, telling her that Ostlehoff was a Department of Defense employee spying on him for at least two months and he now lays dead in his apartment. He also reveals that the phone records he was burning show numerous calls made to the FBI.
A shocking discovery at the Department of Defense.
The next day Scully heads to Mulder's apartment and identifies Ostlehoff's body as being Mulder's. Assistant Director Walter Skinner meets Scully in the hallway, telling her that Section Chief Scott Belvins is requesting she meet with him on the matter. Later, Scully meets with Blevins, Skinner and another Senior Agent. Scully denies that she came to believe in aliens as Mulder does, but admits to her meeting with Kritchgau and what he told her and Mulder. Meanwhile Mulder heads to the Department of Defense Headquarters, getting inside with Ostlehoff's card. Kritchgau intercepts him soon after and tells him that the card gives him higher clearance and potentially the ability to find the cure for Scully's cancer.
The Cigarette Smoking Man heads to Mulder's apartment and is surprised to realize the apartment was being monitored. Scully does some research into the phone numbers that Ostlehoff was calling and finds that they were made to the executive level of the FBI and potentially could have been to Skinner. Scully meets with the climatologist whom she gave the ice core samples to, who says he found a chimera, a new lifeform within them. Scully believes that she can prove the conspiracy if she finds evidence of this organism in her own body and works with him to find whatever evidence she can. She finds Skinner there, who has forensics data on the body in Mulder's apartment and demands she stop lying for him. Mulder meanwhile continues through the Department of Defense Headquarters finding more fake alien bodies inside. He heads through a tunnel to the Pentagon, where he finds an elaborate filing system and warehouse of evidence, ultimately tracking down a small metal vial that he believes may contain Scully's cure.
Scully conducting an experiment.
Scully completes her research, finding evidence that the material from the ice core samples is within her body as well. She meets with an FBI panel led by Blevins that is looking into Mulder's death. Scully explains that Mulder was a victim of an elaborate conspiracy and that she was given a fatal disease by someone in the room. As she's about to present her evidence her nose bleeds and she collapses.
Mulder brings the vial he found to The Lone Gunmen, who tell him its not a cure, but only deionized water.
A quote in this episode, "Let the truth be known, though the heavens fall," comes from District Attorney/Judge Jim Garrison, who said this to a reporter while investigating and prosecuting the only criminal case directly linked to the assassination of John F. Kennedy. There are also a few allusions to the Oliver Stone film JFK, such as the extensive use of archival footage in the meeting with Kritschgau, which vaguely mirrors Garrison meeting Mr. X, and the meetings between Cigarette Smoking Man and The Elder at the horse track may be an allusion to Garrison meeting a witness at a horse track in the film.
This is the second-highest-rated episode of the series with 27.34 million viewers.
The tagline to this episode is "All Lies Lead To The Truth." Symbolic of Mulder's journey of following the path of lies to find Scully's cure.
For the first time in the series a brief synopsis of previous events is given at the very beginning of the episode, as in "Previously, on the X-Files..."
The X-Files upgrades to Widescreen 16:9 from this Season.
The vault that Mulder accesses at the DOD is the same seen in the Pilot and Finale of season 1, where Cigarette Smoking Man stores the implant and the alien fetus.
Mulder: If this treason should prosper. Mulder says this line in a voice-over narration in the opening scenes from the episode. It is a paraphrase based on the following verse: "Treason doth never prosper: what's the reason? / Why if it prosper, none dare call it treason." It is usually attributed to the Roman poet Ovid. Credit has also been given to English epigrammatist Sir John Harrington. The point of the verse, of course, is that if treason succeeds, it becomes law. Mulder fears that if the people he opposes win, their lies will be accepted as fact.
**SPOILER ALERT** When the Cigarette-Smoking Man meets with the First Elder in the horse ring, he says, among other things, "I created Mulder!" This is humorous as it is later revealed that he is Mulder's father.
The ID card with which Mulder gains access to the DOD building is a photo ID, but the DOD guard does not ask to see the ID when he enters. Most high-security buildings would require such a visual identification to prevent exactly this scenario.
The card Mulder finds in the file cabinet lists Scully's birthdate as 2/23/64.
This episode features two sections of archive footage from TXF: "Pilot" and another from "Paper Clip". The first clip from the pilot episode shows Scully entering Scott Blevins' office and the second features her, for the first time, seeing Mulder and, simultaneously, entering his basement office. The footage from "Paper Clip" shows Mulder hurriedly finding a file on his sister, Samantha, while accompanied by Scully in the Strughold Mining Company.
Goofs[edit | edit source]
In this episode, Scully says that she and Mulder have known each other for four years. This is incorrect, because their first case together took place in 1992.(even though the show premiered in 1993).
In Mulder's voice-over he says that his sister went missing 23 years ago. At least 4 years ago, in season 1's 'Conduit', Scully says that she disappeared 21 years ago. The statement here should be the correct one (Nov 1973 - early 1997) making the earlier statement the goof.
In the white hallway with red doors in the DOD building, there are two doors about ten feet apart, but once through the door and in the room containing the alien bodies, there is no corresponding door to the one Mulder does not go through, but should be about ten feet away.

Demand for Products for Family Protection Drives North America Self Defense Weapons Market – PR Newswire
PALM BEACH, Fla. , May 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — FinancialNewsMedia. com News Commentary — The Civilian Less Lethal and Self Defense Weapons Market is one of the markets that has been growing it is typically composed of Air Power Weaponry, Lighting Devices, Pepper Sprays, Knives, Batons, Stun Guns, Tasers and Animal Repellants. Common civilians in various parts of the U. S. have gotten increasingly attractive toward less lethal weapons to be used in self-defense application. Less lethal weapons help them balance the trade-off between safety plus assault. Different states in North America have varying regulations, some of which are not favorable for ownership of firearms among civilians. The growing number assault activities among common populace has led them to prefer less lethal and self-defense weaponry. Over the years, the particular North America civilian less deadly and self-defense weapons market has evolved on the back of continuous advancements in the effectiveness of these in ensuring general safety on one hand and the growing awareness about the portability.

All these have kept the United states civilian much less lethal and self-defense weaponry market brimming with opportunities. "

Judaism and Vatican II Jules Isaac (), a French Jew who pioneered the Judeo-Christian Friendship Association, was among those who worked alongside the Second Vatican Council to subjugate the Church to Judaism.
The primary holy book of the Jewish faith is known as the Torah, which comprises the books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy; these are also the first five books of the Old Testament of the Christian Bible, although "Old Testament" is not a term that followers of the Jewish faith typically apply to the Torah.
The other Holy Book for the Jewish religion is the Talmud which includes the Mishnah, which means "repetition" or "study" and the Gemara, which means "addition" or "completion." As society changed, the Jews found that the Torah needed to be updated from its original agricultural emphasis.
Those changes became part of the Mishnah. The Declaration of the Second Vatican Council on Judaism, that is the fourth article of "Nostra aetate", is located within a decidedly theological framework regarding the universality of salvation in Jesus Christ and God's unrevoked covenant with Israel.

Woodhead Pass
Burned body found in remote layby is a man - but police still do not know his identity
As part of the murder investigation, police want to hear from anyone who drives through the area regularly
Neal Keeling
A badly burned body found in a remote layby is that of a man, police have revealed.
The remains, found off the Woodhead Pass , were so badly damaged, the gender could not be determined at first.
It is now believed the man's body was set fire to at the scene.
Murder squad detectives say the victim, who was white, was left in the layby near the village of Tintwistle sometime between 9pm and midnight on Sunday October 9.
Detectives are still working to discover the identity of the man, whose badly burnt body was found by a member of the public on Monday, October 10 in a parking area off the A628 just east of Tintwistle and north of Valehouse and Rhodeswood reservoirs.

Officers are asking anyone who was in the area between 9pm and midnight on Sunday, October 9 to come forward. They also want to speak to anyone who regularly travels along the A628 between Tintwistle and the Flounch roundabout to get in touch so their vehicles can be eliminated from the inquiry.
Murder enquiry launched after badly burnt body found in Woodhead Pass lay-by – recap
Police want drivers to ring in with the make and model of their vehicle and the time that they made their journey.
Anyone with information as to the identity of the victim is also asked to come forward.
If you have information, contact Derbyshire police on 101 quoting incident 58 of October 11. You can also call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Police from the East Midlands Special Operations Unit are leading the investigation and are working with GMP and Derbyshire Police to identify the victim.
The lay-by is a secluded area which is popular with ramblers and dog walkers.
The area that the body was found in is part of a popular walking route, known as the Longdendale Chain - a route around six reservoirs in the area in the Upper Longdendale Valley.
Although the crime scene is in Derbyshire, Tameside is only about six miles away.
Officers used a drone to take aerial footage of the scene on Tuesday.

Good research conduct guidance on publication, authorship and peer review
In publication and authorship, as in all other aspects of research, researchers are expected to follow the principles of good research conduct supported by the University. It is essential that the parties involved in research and publication discuss and agree on:
recognition of other contributions
acknowledgement of sponsors
declaration of any conflicts of interest
The University expects researchers to follow best practice in publication, such as the guidelines issued by, for example, the Committee on Publication Ethics, the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE), the Council of Science Editors and the British Sociological Association
All members of the University undertaking research are advised to complete the University's Research Integrity online training course, which covers good practice in publishing, authorship and peer review.
PUBLICATION GUIDANCE
Researchers should seek to publish their results in accordance with current best practice and funders' terms and conditions. They should ensure that they:
use the most appropriate means to publish the results of their research, typically as papers in refereed journals
comply with University policies and funder requirements in the dissemination of the results of research and, where appropriate, seek guidance and approval to report research to the media (working with the Public Affairs Directorate or the University's News Office as appropriate)
publish a coherent report of the work and do not report the data more than once (unless in a secondary analysis) or sub-divide the data (unless this was a predefined approach)
consider negative results of research as important as positive when disseminating research and avoid exaggerating the importance of conclusions obtained
analyse the data using appropriate methods of statistical analysis
acknowledge and cite the work of others where appropriate, fully and accurately attributing relevant sources
take steps to ensure the accuracy of the data reported and act immediately to correct any genuine errors or misunderstanding prior to and after publishing
acknowledge the funding, support, sponsorship and other forms of input (including that of the University) to the work in an appropriate way
give notice of intention to publish and seek approval, where appropriate, from all partner organisations
openly declare all relevant interests
not seek media exposure for research which has not been subject to peer review, unless sanctioned by all parties
handle the release of research data which might have high and/or commercial impact with care and sensitivity, consulting the University and other partners as appropriate
Papers presented for publication must be the author's own work, reflecting their own research and analysis. Authors should not engage in plagiarism - verbatim or near-verbatim copying, or very close paraphrasing, of text or results from another's work.
If a publication is found to include an honest error (eg a difference in interpretation, errors unrelated to the research), it is advised that authors seek a correction (erratum) or retraction of work as appropriate, providing the reason for this action. Such errors are not uncommon in research, with The European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (All European Academies, 2017) stating that authors should be "given credit for issuing prompt corrections post-publication" if required.
If there is a concern that an error may have constituted research misconduct (including fabrication, falsification and plagiarism), information on formal procedures can be found on the University's Research Misconduct webpages.
AUTHORSHIP GUIDANCE
Generally, an author is considered to be someone who has made a substantive intellectual contribution to a published study. According to the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE), this normally includes anyone who has:
made a substantial contribution to the conception or design of the work; or the acquisition, analysis or interpretation of data for the work; and
drafted or substantively reviewed or revised the publication; and
approved the final version of the publication; and
agreed to be accountable for all aspects of the work in ensuring that questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work could be appropriately investigated and resolved.
These widely accepted guidelines set a high standard. However there are no universally accepted standards for attributing authorship and there is great variation in practice among different disciplines, research fields and journals.
This places most of the responsibility for decisions about authorship on the researchers who conducted the research reported in the publication. These decisions are best made early in each project and renegotiated regularly as necessary, to avoid misunderstanding and later disputes.
Where the work has more than one author the researchers should also:
agree among all authors the contribution each will make to reporting the work and authorship order, reviewing this commitment regularly as the work progresses
appoint a lead or executive author for communication on the work and keep written records of decisions made regarding authorship
report the work fairly according to each author's contribution, and neither omit, underplay nor overplay a contributor's input
comply with the definition of author and co-author given by the journal or by international organisations (eg International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, Committee on Publication Ethics).
provide a formal offer of authorship (which should be accepted or declined in writing) to those meeting the agreed definitions
maintain a file of all relevant signatures and correspondence (eg exchanges of emails, notes of meetings etc) in case of disputes.
Any individual who contributed to the research, but whose input was not sufficient for them to be listed as an author should be recognised in the acknowledgements of the publication, where they can be credited as a contributor rather than an author.
To ensure a given author's publications are accurately attributed to them, all authors should register for an ORCID account and ensure that their ORCID number is referenced in their published research.
In general, researchers should seek advice from within their own research field and refer to guidance produced by the appropriate research funder, the journal in question or from their professional society. Such sources include:
Academy of Management, Code of Ethics, (February 2006)
British Educational Research Association, Ethical guidelines for Educational research (June 2018)
Medical Research Council, Good Research Practice: Principles and Guidelines (July 2012)
Nature, Nature journals' authorship policy (May 2014)
Wellcome Trust, Good Research Practice Guidelines (April 2018)
University affiliation
Only staff or students of the collegiate University, or those who have a formal affiliation to the University or a College (or those who were University staff or students, or had a formal affiliation when the research in question was conducted), should state in any journal submission that they are affiliated to the University or a College.
PEER REVIEW GUIDANCE
Researchers should give priority to publishing in publications that employ rigorous standards of peer review.
When acting as peer reviewers, University members should declare all relevant interests as required in the University's conflict of interest policy.
New reviewers are advised to take any available training and follow provided guidance (see Further Resources below) to become familiar with good practice, and consult or discuss with colleagues as necessary. Where appropriate, reviewers should contribute comments that will be attributed.
All reviewers should:
apply rigorous objectivity in all assessments
complete the review in accordance with the guidance provided and on time
respect the confidentiality of any information sent for review
report any conflicting interests
not allow vested interests or personal bias to influence their impartial assessment
only accept assignments for which they have the expertise and no conflicting interests
not take advantage of any new data, ideas or privileged information they have had access to during the review process, to further their own research and/or other activities
conduct a fair assessment of the work and not deliberately disadvantage a competitor in the field
review objectively work that challenges accepted views, crosses traditional boundaries and/or is wholly innovative
be aware that the review may identify practice which falls below good conduct (which might be honest error or research misconduct) and which should be reported
If submitting work for peer review, researchers should:
not take actions, directly or indirectly, to influence the review of their own work or that of others, positively or negatively
accept comments and respond to the factual points made

Court Sides with Mississippi Agent in Katrina Restaurant Case
By Andrew G. Simpson | April 26, 2012
The Mississippi Court of Appeals has upheld a ruling that the owners of a Bay St. Louis restaurant cannot collect more than $300,000 they claimed to be owed by a local insurance agent after their business washed away in Hurricane Katrina.
A Hancock County judge ruled against the owners of Trapani's Eatery in in 2010. Annthony Trapani and his wife Jolynna had sued David Treutel Jr., a longtime insurance agent, following the 2005 storm. The couple claimed he failed to place as much insurance on their restaurant as they ordered before Katrina.
The Trapanis alleged that they ultimately received $314,678 less from insurance proceeds than they anticipated. Their lawsuit sought that much in damages.
However, Circuit Judge Roger Clark ruled that the Trapanis did not prove their case and upheld the lower court in granting a directed verdict in favor of agent Treutel.
According to court records, the Trapanis claimed that after Hurricane Ivan in 2004, they contacted Treutel Insurance Agency in the summer of 2005 about increasing their restaurant's wind/hail policies coverage limits, and asked that the agency make the following changes, among others: to increase the structure coverage from $149,477 to $300,000; to increase the contents coverage from $76,794 to $150,000; and to increase the business interruption coverage from $35,000 to $300,000. Other suggested changes were undisputed.
On Aug. 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina devastated Bay St. Louis, leaving virtually nothing remaining of Trapani Eatery's structure. Jolynne Trapani claims that after Katrina, she learned for the first time that Treutel had not increased the wind policy's limits on the structure, contents, and business interruption, as she requested.
Treutel disputed Jolynne's claims that she asked him to make any other changes to the policies other than the changes he made. He claims that he made the following changes after his meeting with Jolynne in the summer of 2005: he increased the limits of coverage under the fire insurance policy to $150,000 for personal property and to $200,000 for loss of business income; and he increased the windstorm insurance policy coverage from $35,000 to $200,000 for loss of business income. According to Treutel, the Trepanis also had purchased flood insurance for the first time — $100,000 of coverage on the building and $100,000 for their personal property. Treutel further said that he did not increase the limits of coverage for the building and the personal property under the windstorm policy nor did he increase the limit of coverage for the building structure under the fire insurance policy.
The Trapanis claim that the total payments paid on their flood and wind policies failed to compensate them for all their losses.
The Trapanis filed suit against Treutel in Hancock County Chancery Court on Dec. 2, 2005. The matter eventually went to trial in the Hancock County Circuit Court. During the trial, the circuit judge struck one of the Trapanis' exhibits in its entirety and also redacted two of the Trapanis' exhibits. Additionally, the circuit judge disqualified the Trapanis' expert, Peter Quave, after finding that Quave lacked sufficient training and experience in property/casualty insurance sales to qualify as an expert.
Treutel moved for a directed verdict claiming the Trapanis had failed to prove that they had suffered any damage proximately caused by the acts of Treutel. The circuit judge granted the motion, finding that the Trapanis had failed to prove damages. The Trapanis then appealed.
However, Circuit Judge Roger Clark has now agreed with the lower court that the Trapanis did not prove their case and with the directed verdict in favor of agent Treutel.

The International Institute of Coffee Tasters opens its branches in Korea and Taiwan
The International Institute of Coffee Tasters (Iiac), which for over twenty years has dedicated its work to the tasting of Italian espresso coffee, actively collaborating in the promotion of this product with the Italian Espresso National Institute, has now strengthened its presence in Asia with the opening of two new branches in Korea and Taiwan.
Over the past two years, the educational and promotional campaigns of the Institute in these two countries has seen significant growth in the numbers of local tasters. This area now boasts an impressive number of 38 Espresso Italiano Trainers, instructors with the task of promoting the culture of Italian espresso coffee through ongoing and varied educational activities. Alongside these figures, there are the Italian instructors who regularly hold sensory analysis courses in Seoul and Taichung.
"The creation of these branches in Korea and Taiwan will provide these two countries with more organisational autonomy, and represents another step forward for our work – commented Luigi Odello, Chairman of Iiac – These two new branches can now be added to the Japanese branch in Tokyo, now active for six years, thereby reinforcing the network that in Asia alone has nearly 700 tasters, many of whom have now reached advanced training levels".

Espresso Italiano Roasting: roasting and blending from the tasters' point of view
Espresso Italiano Roasting, the new publication from the International Institute of Coffee Tasters, has just been published. It is completely focused on the Italian way of roasting and blending.
Italian espresso stands out as a concrete expression of the elegance typical of "Made in Italy", products covering the key role of testimonial of our agro-food culture. And this is why science can only resort to all the modern available means to photograph this art, hoping to replicate and innovate it.
And the aim of Espresso Italiano Roasting is all about this, in fact it focuses on collecting and arranging the output of coffee research using appropriate technical terms to promote its diffusion, giving special attention to the current available means in the field of coffee roasting. As a matter of fact, each single chapter and paragraph is soaked in sensory analysis, which is the main tool used at present for selecting green coffee, setting the roasting process and realizing the blends. The countless correlations involving chemistry, technology and sensory results will easily guide the readers, giving them the tools to understand phenomena they have certainly already observed in the past without the necessary competence.
Espresso Italiano Roasting is in fact based on the experience that the author has achieved with the courses held by the International Institute of Coffee Tasters, the thousands of consumer and laboratory tests carried out by the Taster Study Centre and the tens of samples that have undergone sophisticated chemical analysis.
Espresso Italiano Roasting is only available in electronic format (high resolution PDF) and can be ordered on the website of the International Institute of Coffee Tasters. The index and the first chapter are freely downloadable from the same website.

Coffee tasters: new associations in Japan and Brazil
Everything is ready for the kick-off of the International Institute of Coffee Tasters – Japan. It will be opened up on the 28th of April in Tokyo. To celebrate the occasion, on the 26-27th of April two new licence courses have been organised to satisfy the continually increasing demand for training on coffee tasting. The courses will be held in Osaka and Tokyo, as in the past. The new tasters will join the large number of tasters already operational in Japan thanks to the excellent coordination job done by Yumiko Momoi and her staff.
Brazil also will have its own International Institute of Coffee Tasters. The founding of an association with the same aims of its parent association and which will apply the very same methods seems to be a symbolic undertaking in the country which give us so much precious raw material for the Italian Espresso. While the Japanese market dates back to some years ago, the Brazilian market is opening up just now to the Espresso: an association of coffee tasters has a pioneering spirit to it.
Also the market in the Balkans is opening up and growing. Where the must was drinking Turkish coffee, nowadays, in the dregs of that beverage, it is possible to read the future of the espresso in the Balkans. In March, the International Institute of Coffee Tasters has been invited by Grand Kafa – the biggest roaster, comprising Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria, in the region – to give coaching at a licence course and a course for Espresso Italiano Specialist at its new training centre. This is a collaboration with the most challenging training scheme in the Balkans and a cooperation which will position the International Institute of Coffee Tasters and its method as the quality standard for this region.

Anna Lenhart, Contributor
Founder, Next Generation of Service and salesforce & technology consultant
A Different Kind of Entrepreneur In San Diego
My high school cafeteria lacked recycling bins, which resulted in hundreds of aluminum cans unnecessarily ending up in the landfill each day. As an environmentalist and the junior class treasurer I recognized the opportunity to protect the planet and make some cash. I purchased two trash bins and cut circles for the aluminum cans. I wandered around the cafeteria encouraging people to recycle. Every week I poured out the sticky soda residue and smashed the cans. At the end of the year I traded in the poundage of aluminum for $7.83... enough to cover the cost of one trash bin! This aluminum-recycling debacle was one of my less effective attempts at initiating projects that make a difference, but it was not the last attempt. A combination of service and innovation would come to define the early years of my career.
As a recent grad, I wanted to make a difference and be on the cutting edge of solving major social issues. I wanted to work in a fast-paced environment. I wanted autonomy and flexibility. I am not alone in this desire. According to a Bentley University survey of millennials, almost two-thirds said their goals involve starting their own business. And according to the Intelligence Group, 64 percent of millennials say it's a priority for them to make the world a better place.
When I decided to take a "year-off" between my junior and senior year of college to serve as an AmeriCorps VISTA, I expected to get a needed break from studies and help some people. I was not expecting to launch my startup career.
I was placed at Shakti Rising, a women's recovery and empowerment program in San Diego. Immediately I was placed on teams that were writing new program curriculum and launching new fee-for-service initiatives. I worked weekends and long hours with people who believed in the same mission as myself. It was a cash-strapped and short-staffed organization trying to make massive change. I may not have realized it at the time, but working at Shakti Rising was like working at a startup -- we even had in-office yoga.
Since completing my term, I have worked for a biofuel startup in La Jolla and an early-stage consulting firm in North County. Throughout these experiences I relied more on what I learned during my year of service than my college classes. AmeriCorps gave me a taste of what it is like to work in the fast-paced, creative environment I had always aspired to.
Noticing this generation's interest in entrepreneurship and the need for capacity within the not-for-profit sector, a few years ago I founded the Next Generation of Service (NGS). NGS is an online resource where students can signup to videoconference with alumni of service year programs and learn how to use service to launch their career. Listening to Student's deep desire for service and innovation is what sparked my interest in the Franklin Project.
In the startup circle you hear about audacious goals -- replacing the traditional hotel (AirBnB), making the taxi industry obsolete (Lyft). I joined the Franklin Project because creating the cultural expectation that every young person in America, sometime between the ages of 18 and 28, participate in a fully paid, full-time year of service is not only an incredibly audacious goal, but a goal with enduring impact. We are not changing where people sleep on vacation, we are creating a groundswell of leaders that can and will choose people and planet over profit and a civically minded population that will support those decisions.
Forbes named San Diego the best place to launch a startup in 2014. We are a community that understands technology and reveres small business. But with regards to national service we lag behind other major cities. None of our universities are matching institutions, none of our companies are employers of national service, and we do not host City Year corps members. I am excited to partner with Dev Zaveri-Tabb to represent the Franklin Project in San Diego and work to engage stakeholders from every sector. We are currently planning a series of five workshops aimed at engaging local veteran groups, universities, not-for-profits, businesses and the local government in national service initiatives. San Diego is a city ripe for innovative new service corps programs and our startup community could benefit from a new type of entrepreneur.
This post is part of a series produced by The Huffington Post and the Aspen Institute's Franklin Project in conjunction with Giving Tuesday. The series, which will run for the month of November, features pieces written by Franklin Project Ambassadors, local leaders who are working with community stakeholders in 25 states toward the Franklin Project's vision of making a year of national service -- a service year -- a cultural expectation, common opportunity, and civic rite of passage for every young American.
