Cybersecurity Mesh Defined: What It Means for Today's Enterprises
By Stuart RauchLast updated on Jun 3, 20214326
Fully centralized IT networks may be a thing of the past, but many enterprises are still clinging to their old ways. It's not always easy for larger companies with complex IT architectures (such as banks, heavy manufacturing companies, and government organizations) to keep pace with a more distributed model. Today's modern architectures are pushing more data processing to the edge, and many rely on multiple cloud implementations and datacenters to make their businesses run smoothly.
When it comes to cybersecurity, these types of companies must also change their thinking to what's known as the "cybersecurity mesh." As defined by Gartner, the cybersecurity mesh is a distributed architectural approach to scalable, flexible, and reliable cyber control. The mesh changes the focus from protecting a traditional IT perimeter (analogous to a "walled city") to a more modular approach that centralizes policy orchestration but distributes enforcement of cyber security policy.
IT departments in this scenario can create smaller, individual perimeters that protect distributed access points, allowing network managers to offer different levels of access to different constituents and assets — and making it harder for cybercriminals and hackers to exploit an entire network.

Zero Trust Strategy
The cybersecurity mesh is a key component of a zero-trust network philosophy, whereby any device is by default not trusted to access the broader network. Perimeter-focused security often fails because as much as 34 percent of data leaks and breaches originate on the inside of the network itself. A distributed cybersecurity mesh that utilizes zero trust adapts to emerging threats and changing access needs. Threats can be detected in real-time and assets such as data and devices can be protected better than simple VPN passwords. The mesh ensures that all data, systems, and equipment are treated equally and securely — it doesn't matter where they are located in (or out) of the network. Any connection to access data is by default considered "unreliable" until it is verified by the security protocol.
Protecting Applications and IT Services
When it comes to rolling out large-scale applications in an enterprise environment, the concept of a service mesh is also catching on. Companies are increasingly deploying microservices (an architectural style that structures apps as a collection of services that are loosely coupled and independently delivered, rather than as one monolithic service). Protecting applications like these in a cybersecurity mesh adds efficiency and transparency to the process, and it can be combined with a zero-trust strategy to harden the security posture.
Some examples of attacks that can be mitigated include:
Service Impersonation: Where a hacker accesses a private application network, acts as an authorized service, and makes requests for confidential data.
Unauthorized Access: Where a service request (even a legitimate one) tries to access sensitive data that it is not authorized for.
Packet Sniffing: The process of intercepting legitimate requests and using them to gain access to data.
Data Exfiltration: Where someone maliciously sends sensitive data out of the protected environment.

Impact of the Cybersecurity Mesh on IT Development
Older cybersecurity models used to build password-protected perimeters to allow devices to gain access to a network, managing access levels internally. For IT development, the cybersecurity mesh approach means a total reconfiguration of the process, integrating different measures during the development process of the network itself. In other words, IT security does not get applied as an afterthought, but is rather created early on in the process when the network's architectural design is built. Development teams will be heavily involved in moving security further "to the left" to ensure a more flexible deployment over time.

Mesh Training Can Make a Difference
Security frameworks are only as good as the IT people who implement them. That's why it's important that your cybersecurity experts are well-versed in mesh and other security options, and that a culture of continuous improvement is built into your strategy. One strategy is to take a DataSecOps approach, where IT and data scientists collaborate from the very beginning on building security measures into the infrastructure. Doing so ensures applications transparently interface within the security mesh to improve integration of all relevant systems and devices.
Other mesh-focus training concepts include:
Building data security that is based on downstream utility so that data can be accessed without exposing it unnecessarily.
Creating a cybersecurity mesh that scales as volume of applications and data grow.
Educating IT workers on the importance of continually monitoring and measuring application performance.
Finally, it is vital that cybersecurity professionals receive the broadest training to understand evolving threats and know how to take effective action. Becoming a Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) is a great way to learn the tactics that hackers and cybercriminals utilize, but doing so in a protected and legal learning environment.

Majorfax, West Midlands-based ferrous and non-ferrous casting manufacturer, is thriving within the agricultural sector. Its castings have been used for the production of tractors and various types of agricultural off-road vehicles and machines since the company's foundation in 1984.
Majorfax supplies some of the largest manufacturers in both the farming and off-highway sectors, providing them with fully finished castings. Due to a number of long-term contracts with several global agricultural manufacturers, this sector has been one of the organisation's most significant growth areas in the 2017-2018 Financial Year.
Thanks to the increased in demand for tractor ballast weights, the company has enhanced its production capacity and this month it managed to hire a Supplier Development Coordinator. The new member of the team is working within the purchasing department, keeping ahead of the increasing demand for agricultural castings and continually developing the organisation's supply chain and production process.
Moreover, Majorfax also supplied various types of castings to manufacturers within the tillage, harvesting, grassland equipment and seeding markets. "We are proud of our long association with the agricultural sector. For over 30 years, we have been supplying independent equipment manufacturers, together with global tractor manufacturers with fully finished castings to be used for all types of farming applications," said John Hughes, Sales Director at Majorfax.
With engineers and an executive board boasting vast amount of experience within the agricultural sector, the organisation plans to continue its expansion within the market via further investment in its production and people. "The agricultural sector has been a key sector for Majorfax from the outset and we plan to continuously enhance our production capabilities to serve the needs of this significant market," said Ranvir Gill at Majorfax.
Majorfax Limited is a Tier 1 supplier of ferrous and non-ferrous castings, operating within the Agricultural & Off-Highway, Renewables & Energy, General Engineering, Railway and Architectural & Decorative sectors. Along with the supply of castings and its surface finishing services, Majorfax also provides its clients with an all-round supply chain service, managing their logistics, quality management, cost management and stockholding needs.

I have buttons, each for editing its own field. I need that if at least one button is enabled, then the Save button is visible, if all are closed, then the buttons are not visible.
How can I do that?

A: I can't find a purpose for having multi buttons/icons while all of them will do the same action .. but anyways you can use .each() inside the edit .click() and times .click()  to loop through the buttons/icons

$(document).ready(function(){
$('.usereditbtn').closest('td').hide(0);

A: The first thing that pops in my mind is that you can assign a class to each of those edit buttons once they are clicked.
More precisely, toggle that class (add it when the button is clicked, then remove it when the button is clicked again, you can use toggleClass method in jQuery).
This way, you can use jQuery's hasClass method which returs a boolean if a certain element has a certain class in that moment.
So, all you have to do is grab all of the edit buttons, and run a for loop thorugh them (on every click of one of those buttons, of course), if at least one of them has that extra class you added (meaning that one or more edit buttons are activated in that moment), then you can hide the Save button.
Vice versa, if none of those buttons have that extra class, that means non of them is currently active, and then you can show the Save button again.
Hope I wasnt too confusing here !
Of couse, there are dozens of ways you can do this task, this just happened to pop first in my mind.

Local government strengthens its climate change policy response
Vote2016 highlights the important issues that matter to New Zealanders
LGNZ's new 2050 work programme addresses the enduring challenges facing New Zealand's communities
Local Government supports fire services reform
LGNZ has started a conversation with New Zealand residents about the key issues affecting communities on social media through its Vote2016 campaign launched late last month.
This is part of the first phase of the Vote2016 campaign focused on increasing engagement with residents on important issues such as freshwater, transport, tourism, business and economic development and local amenities and services.
LGNZ President Lawrence Yule says that by raising key issues affecting communities around the country, LGNZ is hoping it will encourage residents to get more involved in conversations about what matters to them, and how they can get involved.
"Our aim is to grow citizens' understanding of the breadth of services delivered each day by local governments across New Zealand, and the impact those services have on their everyday lives. By making that connection, we hope it inspires Kiwis to take a more proactive stance on the issues they care about in their communities," says Mr Yule.
LGNZ's first Facebook post asked New Zealanders whether they thought enough was being done to keep our lakes, rivers, streams and beaches clean.
The issue was seen by over 175,000 people in its first week, and, not surprisingly, the feedback revealed the tremendous passion Kiwis have for issues around the future of the country's freshwater and the environment.
Mr Yule says LGNZ is encouraged by the initial results and looks forward to more discussion on subsequent issues raised throughout the campaign.
"The response we've received so far is very encouraging. New Zealanders are passionate about their communities and it's great to see residents getting involved in the conversation about what matters most to them," says Mr Yule.
The Facebook campaign directs users to visit vote2016.co.nz, the Vote2016 campaign website which provides information for voters, candidates, media, and other key partners and also offers campaign background and research statistics.
LGNZ's Vote2016 elections campaign aims to raise voter turnout above 50 per cent nationally for the first time since 1998.
"Our goal is that, for the first time in nearly two decades, local government will be elected by a majority of New Zealanders," says Mr Yule.

Make room for dessert, because Ed Sheeran traded the stage for a kitchen last weekend. At a Spotify event in New York City, Sheeran teamed up with pastry chef Dominique Ansel to treat his most dedicated fans to something delicious. Christmas cookies are a joy to begin with, but they're even more magical when Sheeran whips them up himself and calls them "gingerED" cookies.
Several lucky Sheerios got enjoy these festive cookies while hanging out with Sheeran himself. Of course, this event had a holly-jolly dress code; everyone wore red and green aprons. Sheeran's even boasted the title "Chef Ed," so attendees knew who was really in charge around there.
In a happy coincidence, James Corden recently referred to the ÷ singer as the "gingerbread man" in a Late Late Show sketch. Perhaps this joke foreshadowed Sheeran's scrumptious side hustle. Once the worldwide success of "Shape of You" dies down — more on that in the video below — maybe him and Chrissy Teigen can write a cookbook together.

I'd tell Andrew to take it a step further. I know its impossible for some people but the smartest thing I've ever done professionally was separating my work e-mail from personal e-mail, and removing my work e-mail from my personal phone thus when I check my personal e-mail, work is never lingering in the background.
Establishing Boundaries is crucial. Weekends should be away time, as we already have much less vacation time than most other developed nations, and it works against us. Its okay sometimes a project has a deadline that requires extra work. Its not okay if every project requires extra work. That's bad planning.


Here's our inspiration card... enjoy!
If you're stuck for ideas, I'm sure our DT girls, supported by our two talented Guest Designers, Anja Curvers and Vickie Zimmer, will help you out with their amazing inspired artwork.
Again, some of us used images illustrated by Torico herself. For the details, please refer to the Designers' blogs.
2. Post your creation on your blog or an online gallery (using a code CSC108), and link it here with the inlinkz widget below. Please provide a direct link to your post, not an entire blog.
Wow love all the cards made by the team they are great.
This is an adorable case study challenge and the team members really outdid themselves this week!
I haven't played in such a long time, but this CASE card and the DT samples have inspired me to play along. Thanks ladies!
The DT inspiration is fantastic! Thanks for the great challenge.

This is the official bundle of the SensioLabs Connect SDK.
Note: If you want to persist your users, read the Cookbooks section.
Note: The username is the user uuid.
Several errors can occur during the OAuth dance, for example the user can deny your application or the scope you defined in config.yml can be different from what you selected while creating your application on SensioLabsConnect. Theses failures need to be handled.
Since sensiolabs/connect v3.0.0, failures handling is restored to the default Symfony failure handling.
Therefore, if an error occurred, the error is stored in the session (with a fallback on query attributes) and the user is redirected to the route/path specificed in failure_path node of the sensiolabs_connect section of your firewall in security.yml.
Warning: You need to specifiy failure_path. If you don't, the user will be redirected back to login_path, meaning that will launch the SensioLabsConnect authentication and redirect the user to SensioLabsConnect which can lead to a redirection loop.
Don't forget to update your database.
You can store more things if you want. But don't forget to update your application scope.

Fantasy Football Week 7 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Running Backs
By Matthew Brosnan.
Start 'em:
Houston Texans vs Green Bay Packers
This is a matchup of two teams who desperately struggle against the run. The Texans have given up the most Fantasy points to running backs this season and the Packers have given up the 2nd most points to running backs. Green Bay allow 28 Fantasy ppg and gave up 24 points last week to Ronald Jones. David Johnson's touches have increased through every week of the season and last week he attempted 19 rushes to go along with his touchdown. This is a great match up for Johnson and is a definite start for your Fantasy football team.
Ronald Jones
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Las Vegas Raiders
I had Jones as a start 'em last week and he did not disappoint scoring 24 Fantasy points in a game where he went over 100 yards and scored 2 rushing touchdowns. Once again Jones is a great choice to start as he goes up against the Raiders who give up the 3rd most points per game to running backs, averaging 26.6 points. I would expect Jones to carry over his great form from the Green Bay game, as he continues to cement himself as the number 1 running back in Tampa Bay.
Denver Broncos vs Kansas City Chiefs
The undrafted star's return to fitness has come at the perfect time for Denver as their other running back Melvin Gordon missed the week 6 win against New England though injury and remains questionable for this week. In the win against New England, Lindsay carried the ball 23 times and rushed for over 100 yards and even if Gordon plays this week, he will be sharing snaps with Lindsay. The Chiefs rank the as the 3rd worst team in the NFL against the rush, allowing 145 rushing yards per game, this could be yet another solid start for Lindsay as the Broncos look to follow up their impressive win they had against New England.
Sit 'em:
Joe Mixon
Cincinnati Bengals vs Cleveland Browns
Joe Mixon is the number 9 ranked running back this season, however that number is highly deceptive. Mixon had a huge game in week 4 against the Jaguars, where he scored 36 Fantasy points, but other than that one game he has been below average. In 5 of his 7 games this season, Mixon has scored single digit Fantasy points and has been playing while injured for the past few weeks. The Browns allow the 4th fewest rushing yards per game out of all teams in the NFL with an impressive 94 ypg, I would leave Mixon on the sideline of your Fantasy team this week.
Arizona Cardinals vs Seattle Seahawks
He had a career day on national television against the Cowboys, however I don't think that this week's game is one to start Kenyan Drake in. The Cowboys defense last week was awful – Kyler Murray completed 9 passes and they still won by 28 points. This week however Drake faces the Seahawks who only allow 100 rushing yards per game and only 16 Fantasy points to the running back position. The Seahawks are last in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game with 370, all this means is that if the Cardinals want to win this Football game, they're going to be forced to do it in the passing game.

News, 19.1.2018
Amerikan Uutiset is an 86-year-old Finnish-American newspaper published primarily in Finnish from Lake Worth, Florida. Amerikan Uutiset Editor-in-Chief Mikko Koskinen sheds light on the newspaper's future and past.
Amerikan Uutiset covers news from Finland and the United States. The first Amerikan Uutiset issue was published under the name Minnesotan Uutiset, Minnesota's News, in September 1932. Founders Carl Parta, a news press owner, and reporter Adolph Lundqvist aimed to create a politically unbiased newspaper for all of the Finnish-Americans living across the country.
As the flow of Finnish immigrants started to fade in the 1950's and 1960's, the readership base shrank significantly and the local immigrant press was faced with financial troubles.
"There used to be around 350 local Finnish newspapers in the U.S. back in the day, but when the immigration numbers decreased, papers started dropping out of business too," tells Mikko Koskinen, the current Editor-in-Chief of Amerikan Uutiset.
A number of these Finnish immigrant newspapers were integrated to Amerikan Uutiset to strengthen the readership of the paper. In 1965, the name was changed to Amerikan Uutiset with a goal of making it a national newspaper, read all across the United States.
In 1986, Amerikan Uutiset moved to Southern Florida where a large concentration of Finns had formed. The main office is located in Lake Worth, where the paper is printed to be published every other week.
The Man Behind the News
Koskinen himself is a news reporter trained at the University of Helsinki, Finland. After a career in journalism, he has also worked in the advertising industry. Now he is combining his talent from both worlds with Amerikan Uutiset, writing news and contacting various companies in order to fill advertising space.
Editor-in-Chief Mikko Koskinen.
"The attracting factor for our readership is that we publish content in Finnish about topics important for Finns and Finnish-Americans. We cover economy, culture and sports news and religious matters. The paper also features local news about South Florida, with some articles in English," Koskinen explains.
Helping the readership keep up their language skills through generations is a big reason why Amerikan Uutiset still publishes content in Finnish. "We have language learning campaigns all the time. Subscribe, and you won't lose your Finnish skills!" Koskinen laughs.
In the early 2000s, Koskinen heard of the financial troubles the newspaper publishers were facing and decided to embark on a journey to save Amerikan Uutiset.
"When the paper hadn't been published for several months, I think someone from Minnesota wrote that it felt like a relative had passed away since Amerikan Uutiset doesn't exist anymore."
The emotional feedback hit home for Koskinen.
"If there is any way I can keep this newspaper running financial wise, I shall try my hardest. Amerikan Uutiset is a vital publication especially for that generation of Finnish-Americans who moved here around the 50s and 60s," Koskinen states.
Competing with Online News and Social Media
In the internet era, having captivating content is crucial. "We can compete with online news with the help of our volunteer columnists, who like to write stories for us," Koskinen says.
"We have yet to find a Sorcerer's Stone for transitioning Amerikan Uutiset online," Koskinen sighs and says that social and online media do not bring enough ad revenue for small businesses.
"Our main readership is not online, they like to read their news from an actual piece of paper. Besides, a newspaper always has an Editor-in-Chief who takes the responsibility of what is being said on their platform – that is not the case on social media sites."
Koskinen wants to thank the loyal subscribers and companies supporting the newspaper with their advertisements.
"Our subscriber base is shrinking because there is no influx of Finns immigrating to the States. Nevertheless, the biggest thank you goes to our readers, who keep on reading Amerikan Uutiset until they lose their eyesight!" Koskinen exclaims. "Our business contacts are very important. I have to thank especially Ponsse, who keeps on renewing their advertisement purchase. We are grateful for that."
Nowadays Amerikan Uutiset has subscribers in every state in the United States, also in Canada and in Finland. "I really hope I could see the newspaper reach its 100th birthday. I will try to keep Amerikan Uutiset running as long as there are subscribers and advertisers."

Excepting when you change your direction drastically.
I'm a bit worried it could be too powerful.
I'm worried people would just spam it if it always added to your speed. And if I did No Punishment For Slight Adjustments In 0g, wouldn't this be mostly redundant?
Maybe "boost" is a poor word choice? It gets you up to speed and is useful for changing directions quickly, so maybe there might be a better word for it?
It already has spam protection built in from the health reduction, so if it's spammed people will be risking getting one hit killed.
I don't see why making it so it always adds speed would be the same as No Punishment For Slight Adjustments In 0g as using the grapple and holding directional buttons to adjust your position slightly are very different alterations in 0g conditions where using boost to increase speed at all times just feels natural.
Considering this why not have it be automatic then rather than an activated ability? If it's use is supposed to be as limited as just getting you up to speed why should the player have to enter a command to do so other than just moving in the direction they wish to move?
I think JP was considering letting us heal soft damage, so I'm not entirely sure about that.
Thrust? Could have tapping shift boost (up to boost's speed cap) and holding shift apply thrust in the direction you're looking.

Parkinson's gene therapy could improve motor symptoms
Author: Simge Eva DoganPublished: 14 November 2018
UK researchers are trialling an innovative gene therapy that could improve motor symptoms – such as tremors and rigidity – experienced by people with Parkinson's.
The therapy, named AXO-Lenti-PD, has been developed by biopharmaceutical companies Oxford BioMedica and Axovant Sciences.
The trial will work with 30 participants living with Parkinson's at hospitals in London and Cambridge, UK and Paris, France. The first stage will evaluate the safety and dosage of the therapy – and the second stage will assess the long-term effects of the therapy on motor function.

Defending champion Sizing John & King George hero Might Bite head Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup entries
Press Release 10th January 2018 Cheltenham
For full media guide, please click here
The countdown to The Festival begins in earnest today with the unveiling of the entries for the highlight of the four-day spectacular, the G1 Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup on Friday, March 16.
The three and a quarter mile showpiece, which carries record prize money of £625,000 in 2018, has attracted 38 entries this year, with a joint record high of 18 trained in Ireland.
Reigning Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup hero, eight-year-old Sizing John (Jessica Harrington IRE), and the talented Might Bite (Nicky Henderson), winner of last year's RSA Chase at The Festival, are the star names among the entries following contrasting displays over Christmas.
Sizing John fluffed his lines in the G1 Leopardstown Christmas Chase won by Road To Respect (Noel Meade IRE), finishing down the field in seventh, while Might Bite overcame Double Shuffle (Tom George) by a length in the G1 32Red King George VI Chase at Kempton Park.
Sizing John is bidding to become the first horse to win back-to-back Cheltenham Gold Cups since Best Mate (2002, 2003 & 2004).
Coney Island (Eddie Harty IRE) missed the Christmas action in favour of a graduation chase at Ascot on December 23, having not raced for just shy of a year, and justified the decision with an impressive nine-length victory over Adrien Du Pont.
The lightly-raced seven-year-old had three starts over fences in his novice season before injury intervened, headlined by a decisive victory over Anibale Fly (Tony Martin IRE) in the G1 Drinmore Novices' Chase over two and a half miles at Fairyhouse in December, 2016.
Arguably, his best performance came later that month over a half a mile further when going down by a half-length to Our Duke (Jessica Harrington IRE) in the G1 Neville Hotels Novice Chase at Leopardstown.
Trainer Eddie Harty said: "I was delighted with Coney Island at Ascot. He has come out of it fit and well, and is ready to go again.
"He has been entered for the Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup and the Ryanair Chase, and will also have entries in the Irish Gold Cup on February 4 and the Ascot Chase a fortnight later.
"We will go for one of those two and then make a decision about which race to aim for at Cheltenham after that.
"I think the Gold Cup picture looks as much as it did before Christmas. Might Bite did nothing wrong, Sizing John did, but that might have been down to the proximity of his prep race, and nothing else really came to the fore. My fella has shortened up in the betting after Ascot, but it was only a graduation chase. Touch wood and all being well, we will be able to decide where we are going after his prep run.
"I don't have any concerns about his stamina, but it would have been stupid not to put him in the Gold Cup and the Ryanair as we are still nine weeks out from Cheltenham and can finalise plans nearer the time."
As well as Might Bite, Nicky Henderson, seeking his third Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup success after Long Run (2011) and Bobs Worth (2013) also has entered Whisper, beaten a nose by his stable companion in the 2017 RSA Chase at The Festival and an excellent neck second in the Ladbrokes Trophy when giving a stone to Total Recall (Willie Mullins IRE) at Newbury in early December.
Irish-trained horses have won three of the last four runnings of the Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup and Ireland's hand is strengthened further by a team of five from the stable of Willie Mullins.
Mullins, who has saddled the runner-up on five occasions, could call upon Djakadam, second in both 2015 and 2016 and fourth when favourite in 2017, Total Recall, Killultagh Vic, Bachasson and Acapella Bourgeois.
Noel Meade has a strong hand, thanks to recent G1 victor Road To Respect, who was successful in handicap company at The Festival last year, and the progressive Disko, while Gordon Elliott's three entries include G1 victor Outlander.
The home challenge features last year's second and third, Minella Rocco (Jonjo O'Neill) and Native River (Colin Tizzard). The latter is yet to race this season but is being aimed at the race, while Native River's stablemate Cue Card, a dual winner at The Festival but a faller in the last two Cheltenham Gold Cups, is also engaged.
Coneygree (Mark Bradstock), who in 2015 became the first novice since Captain Christy in 1974 to win the Cheltenham Gold Cup, has recently had a wind operation following two disappointing efforts this season. Kauto Star (2007 & 2009) is the only horse to have regained the Cheltenham Gold Cup crown.
Nigel Twiston-Davies, victorious with Imperial Commander in 2010, is responsible for impressive G1 Betfair Chase hero Bristol De Mai and runaway Becher Handicap Chase victor Blaklion.

Method for Predicting Adsorption in Carbon Dioxide-Scrubbing Materials
Berkeley scientists have developed a method that accurately predicts the adsorptive properties of crystalline MTV-MOF systems. (Image by Hyun Jung Kim)
Scientists would like to apply the same principles by which baking soda removes food odors from refrigerators or silica powder keeps moisture away from electronic devices to scrub carbon dioxide from the exhaust gases of fossil fuel power plants. An excellent candidate for this task is the class of materials known as multivariate metal organic frameworks or MTV-MOFs, which were discovered by Omar Yaghi, one of the world's most cited chemists. However, finding and synthesizing the best MTV-MOFs for this task has been a major challenge. That discouraging state-of-affairs is about to change.
Yaghi and a team of researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the University of California (UC)Berkeley that included Jeffrey Reimer and Berend Smit have developed a method that accurately predicts the adsorptive properties of crystalline MTV-MOF systems synthesized with different combinations of functional chemical groups.
"By combining solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements with molecular-level computational simulations we've identified a strategy for determining the underlying structure of MTV-MOFs that can help optimize function," says Reimer, who holds joint appointments with Berkeley Lab's Environmental Energy Technologies Division and UC Berkeley's Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department and is an NMR expert. "Our method is a first step in resolving the more general problem of spatial disorder in other ordered materials, including mesoporous materials, functionalized polymers and defect distributions within crystalline solids."
Reimer and Yaghi, now with Berkeley Lab's Materials Sciences Division and UC Berkeley's Chemistry Department, are the corresponding authors of a paper describing this research in Science titled "Mapping of Functional Groups in Metal-Organic Frameworks." Co-authors are Xueqian Kong, Hexiang Deng, Fangyong Yan, Jihan Kim, Joseph Swisher and Berend Smit.

MOFs are crystalline molecular systems that can serve as storage vessels with a sponge-like capacity for capturing and containing carbon dioxide and other gases. They consist of a metal oxide center surrounded by organic "linker" molecules to form a highly porous three-dimensional crystal framework with an extraordinarily large internal surface area – sugar cube-sized MOF unfolded and flattened would blanket a football field.
In his seminal work, Yaghi discovered that multiple linkers with different functional groups can be incorporated into the same MOF crystal, creating a heterogeneous interior that can enhance selectivity for carbon dioxide capture relative to mixtures of pure materials.
"MTV-MOFs with different functionalities showed an increase in their ability to selectively separate carbon dioxide by two orders of magnitude compared to corresponding single-component MOFs," Yaghi says.
The selectivity by which MTV-MOFs adsorb carbon dioxide, or some other specific type of gas, such as methane or hydrogen, is controlled by the combination of different types of linker functional groups and how those linker groups are spatially distributed or "apportioned" across the MOF's crystal structure. However, such apportionment was not known and could not be determined through diffraction or other conventional scientific tools.
Omar Yaghi, discoverer of MTV-MOFs, is a chemist with Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley.
"The problem of linker distribution with MTV-MOF's turns out to be an example of a larger problem in materials science, which is how does one quantify disorder when it is distributed upon a system that is governed by crystalline order," Yaghi says. "In the case of MTV-MOFs, were it not for the differing functional groups on the linkers, all would exhibit the same regular crystalline order, which means diffraction methods cannot discern the apportionment of the linkers."
To address the issue of discerning spatial apportionment within MTV-MOFs, Yaghi and Reimer and their respective research groups, joined forces with co-author Smit, director of Berkeley's Energy Frontier Research Center and an international authority on molecular simulations. Smit also holds an appointment with Berkeley Lab's Materials Sciences Division.
The research team used their NMR-computational approach to generate three-dimensional maps of the apportionment of functional groups within and between the pores of a model MTV-MOF system. They found that, depending on the composition of the functional groups and their ratios, MTV-MOFs exist in either clusters, random or alternating apportionments, and these apportionments govern the carbon dioxide adsorption selectivity that was observed in Yaghi's earlier work.
"Our work portends the control of apportionment in MTV-MOFs so that we can now imagine synthesizing structures in which regions of different functionalities are apportioned and juxtaposed to ultimately carryout complex functions," says Smit. "Our work also shows that a combined NMR-computational approach might be able to provide similar insights into the many other systems in nature where disorder precludes a molecular understanding of a material's structure."
Adds Yaghi, "It is our current vision to design and synthesize materials with crafted heterogeneity so as to carry out complex molecular operations such as recognizing, sorting and counting substrates."

In a surprise move, China and Britain's Conservative Party government have signed an agreement in which China will participate in the building of nuclear reactors in England. Criticism of the deal comes from those, including members of the British Labor Party, who claim that China's participation could compromise the "national security" of this NATO member-state.
China General Nuclear Power Corp., a state-controlled corporation, will provide $6 billion toward the completion of the Hinkley Point C power station, giving China a 33.5 percent interest in the plant.
Until now, the plant has been primarily a project of the French company EDF. It has been over-budget and long-delayed in its construction, prompting criticism from anti-nuclear groups over money they say could have been spent on developing other renewable energy sources. However, China's entry into a consortium with EDF, with Britain's approval, has revived the project.
Adds the Times: "China has by far the most ambitious nuclear building program in the world, with 68 commercial reactors under construction or in the planning stages, according to the World Nuclear Association, an industry group. China has received help from the French and the big Japanese company Toshiba but has gradually developed its own local designs and built up a large chain of domestic suppliers.
Today, the burning of fossil fuels is the main source of electric power around the world.
Just days after the announcement of the China-British nuclear deal, a hurricane with the strongest winds ever recorded in the Western Hemisphere hit the Pacific coast of Mexico. Amazingly, no lives were reported lost, but it was a chilling reminder of the growing frequency of superstorms as global warming continues.
With the stronger storms, prolonged droughts, and melting of glaciers and polar ice caps that have accompanied record-high world temperatures, there is no longer any doubt that the burning of fossil fuels, which has created a warming blanket of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere, must give way to other forms of energy if even greater disasters are to be avoided.
Nuclear plants produce no carbon dioxide (CO2). While many today are looking to nuclear energy as one of the alternatives to fossil fuels, that is not how it got started. The successful splitting of the atom came on the scene long before anyone was aware of the CO2 problem.
Rather than being developed as a source of energy for peaceful purposes, the first nuclear programs were rushed into production for political and military reasons: to build atomic bombs. The first use of the bomb — to incinerate hundreds of thousands of Japanese civilians at the very end of World War II — allowed the U.S. capitalist ruling class to claim the role of leading power in the postwar world.
It soon became clear, however, that the energy in the atom could be a virtually unlimited source of electric power. The first nuclear reactor to generate electricity was built by the U.S. government in 1951. However, the focus of U.S. research continued to be military, aimed at providing nuclear power for Navy submarines and aircraft carriers.
While Washington was mainly funding research for war purposes, the Soviet Union in June 1954 put into operation the world's first nuclear plant to generate electricity for the civilian power grid at Obninsk, 160 miles south of Moscow.
It was followed by England, which started up its first commercial nuclear power station in 1956, named Calder Hall. Not until December 1957 was the first U.S. commercial nuclear plant opened in Pennsylvania, called the Shippingport Reactor.
It soon became clear that there were many inherent problems in the first two generations of nuclear plants. Some were immediate, including the possibility of a disastrous failure in the cooling systems.
The accident at Pennsylvania's Three Mile Island nuclear power plant in 1979 caused no deaths, but there was great apprehension over the release of radioactive elements and the possibility that the accident could have led to a complete meltdown of the plant. Since then, two other major accidents have occurred — at Chernobyl, in the Ukraine area of the then-Soviet Union, and at Fukushima in Japan, after damage to the nuclear plant there from a major tsunami. The total number of immediate deaths from these two accidents came to less than 50. Estimates of the long-term mortality due to radiation exposure vary widely.
The other major issue involved in nuclear energy is long-term: what to do with the radioactive waste products.
As both military and commercial reactors began to proliferate, investigators found that the storage of nuclear wastes — which could continue to be radioactive for hundreds of thousands of years — was being done so poorly that there could be serious effects on people and the environment.
The problem of what to do with radioactive waste continues to be a huge barrier to the use of nuclear energy. It is the main stated reason why the German government under Chancellor Angela Merkel has abandoned its nuclear power plants and is spending hundreds of billions of dollars to decommission them. Germany now gets about half its electricity from coal, which is the worst polluter in terms of CO2 emissions.
As of 2014, the U.S. got about 19 percent of its electric power from nuclear energy. But the vast majority of it, 68 percent, came from fossil fuels: coal, gas and oil. Only 13 percent came from hydroelectric and other renewables.
China gets most of its electric power from coal and has a very serious air-pollution problem. At present, it has 28 nuclear power reactors in operation, 23 under construction, and more about to start construction. Additional reactors are planned, including some of the world's most advanced, to give China more than a threefold increase in nuclear capacity to at least 58 GWe by 2020-2021, then some 150 GWe by 2030, and much more by 2050, according to the World Nuclear Association.
What has transformed China, which was a war-torn, impoverished country at the time the U.S. dropped the first atomic bombs, into such a powerhouse for nuclear energy? And are there reasons to believe that its reactors will be safer than those of the past?
Personal disclosure: The author lives five miles from two of the U.S.'s aging and dangerous commercial nuclear reactors.

While Bering Sea groundfish booms, Gulf of Alaska struggles
December 5th, 2016 — Bering Sea fish stocks are booming, but it's a mixed bag for groundfish in the Gulf of Alaska.
Fishery managers will set 2017 catches this week for pollock, cod and other fisheries that make up Alaska's largest fish hauls, which are taken from 3 to 200 miles offshore. More than 80 percent of Alaska's seafood comes from those federally managed waters, and by all accounts the Bering fish stocks are in great shape.
"For the Bering Sea, just about every catch is up," said Diana Stram, Bering groundfish plan coordinator for the North Pacific Fishery Management Council.
Twenty-two species are under the council's purview, along with such nontargeted species as sharks, octopus and squid. For the nation's largest food fishery — Bering pollock — the stock is so robust that catches could safely double to nearly 6 billion pounds, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration scientists who presented their data to the council last week.
But the allowable catch will remain close to this year's harvest, Stram said, due to a strict cap applied to all fish removals.
"The sum of all the catches in the Bering Sea cannot exceed 2 million metric tons," she explained.
With all stocks so healthy, catch-setting becomes a trade-off among the varying species, Stram said. The council also sets bycatch levels for the fisheries, another constraint.

What are the differences between the sklearnAPI(LGBMModel, LGBMClassifier etc) and default API(lgb.Dataset, lgb.cv, lgb.train) of lightgbm? Which one should I prefer using? Is it better to use lgb.cv or gridsearchcv/randomisedsearchcv of sklearn when using lightgbm?

Q: No text at all in the game? I just bought the game Civilization V on the AppStore (Apple) : The game seems to work but there is no text on any button, title, text field, etc. Is there a way to fix this ?
Tech info :

*

*MacBookPro Intel Core Duo 2,33Ghz / 4Go

*Snow Leopard

*Radeon X1600

EDIT :
I managed to start a game trying to figure out where was the correct buttons to click on, and actually the game runs, but there are huge display problems... I think that the Radeon X1600 is not supported...
EDIT 2 :
I've added this in-game screenshot to explain the fact that this doesn't seems to be only a font problem :

As your see, the background is still the one of the intro (the current landscape is not drawn). The moving icons are buggy, etc.

A: In windows this game had its own font but sadly named same as a standard font, so text would be wrong size and hard to read. Solution to that was to find the font and download it to overwrite the standard font. Maybe it is similar thing for Mac?

Watch a Teenage Boy Find a Stack of Gay Porn In Adam Baran's Adorable Short Film 'Jackpot'
Watch a Teenage Boy Find a Stack of Gay Porn In Adam Baran's Adorable Short Film 'Jackpot'
/bent
Nostalgic for a world where your consumption of porn didn't come solely from the internet? Adam Baran's 1994-set short film "Jackpot" — which has been making the LGBT film festival rounds for the past year (winning best short in Miami) — is available to watch for free online, and it makes for a stroll down that particular memory lane (and is a fun watch either way). Following a teenage boy who hears about a stack of gay porn hidden across down and then goes on a mission to find it (dealing with some bullies along the way). With a lovely little message of self-empowerment to boot, "Jackpot" is definitely worth your next 8 minutes:

Have You Seen Bebe Dresses On Sale Lately?
I am looking for particular Bebe dresses on sale, because I think some of them never DO go on sale. I am salivating particularly after this white silk belted shirt dress, which I can't seem to find anywhere else on sale!
I would've gladly paid for it if it was only around a hundred bucks, but it's closer to $150 right now so I guess I'm going to have to wait for this and other Bebe clothing to go on sale before I will be able to buy them without seriously breaking the bank.
I saw Bebe dresses on sale at eBay, in fact I am seeing them right now in another tab, although the results for my query only show multicolored shirt dresses. I want a white one, because I already have a button down boyfriend shirt that looks like it but in a different color.
Plus I want to be able to match it with the gray flat sandal that I just bought on sale on a mall near the office. I really want to find Bebe clothing on sale other than that offered on eBay right now so I can search for particular dresses I want that's not available in the site.
Please tell me if you have seen Bebe dresses on sale lately. Would be greatly appreciated! And hey, maybe you will like those Bebe dresses on sale I saw at eBay just now. If you are feeling multicolored patterns, then these are for you.
Here is the results of our search for shoes Bebe Clothing.
You won't find a greater savings on shoes Bebe Clothing in stores so buy your shoes Bebe Clothing now.
Do You Own Bebe Shirts?
I remember buying a pink Marie Antoinette Art of the Tee a couple of months back because I totally dig the clash of colors on Bebe shirts like that. The one I have really stands out because of the bold and huge black print on pink fabric that's really comfortable to wear.
Unfortunately, a friend (who is not a friend anymore) "borrowed" it and managed to put a huge stain on it and was not even apologetic when she gave it back to me after a month. It's like she was the one expecting me to make excuses for the fabric's quality, which in fact is perfect. Moving on.
Almost all my Bebe shirts I bought on sale have one thing in common: their rhinestone accents. When I buy a Bebe shirt, I make sure it has that design because I think they look totally cool on a tee.
So whenever I see Bebe shirts on sale that has them, I make sure to get back at them ASAP before they return to their original price so I can add more to my Bebe shirts collection. How about you? I would love to see your Bebe shirts.

Rumi: Unseen Poems (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets Series) (Hardcover)
By Rumi, Brad Gooch (Translated by), Maryam Mortaz (Translated by), Brad Gooch (Editor), Maryam Mortaz (Editor)
(Save: $3.00 20%)
A collection of never-before-translated poems by the widely beloved medieval Persian poet Rumi.
Rumi (1207-1273) was trained in Sufism--a mystic tradition within Islam--and founded the Sufi order known to us as the Whirling Dervishes, who use dance and music as part of their spiritual devotion. Rumi's poetry has long been popular with contemporary Western audiences because of the way it combines the sacred and the sensual, describing divine love in rapturously human terms.
However, a number of Rumi's English translators over the past century were not speakers of Persian and they based their sometimes very free interpretations on earlier translations. With Western audiences in mind, translators also tended to tone down or leave out elements of Persian culture and of Islam in Rumi's work, and hundreds of the prolific poet's works were never made available to English speakers at all. In this new translation -- composed almost entirely of untranslated gems from Rumi's vast ouevre -- Brad Gooch and Maryam Mortaz aim to achieve greater fidelity to the originals while still allowing Rumi's lyric exuberance to shine.
RUMI was born in 1207 in Central Asia. He founded the mystic Sufi order known to us as the Whirling Dervishes, who use dance and music as part of their spiritual devotion. He died in 1273 and his burial place in Konya, Turkey, remains a shrine to this day.
BRAD GOOCH, best-selling author of Smash Cut, Flannery, and City Poet, wrote the first popular biography of Rumi, Rumi's Secret, which was published in 2017 to critical acclaim.
MARYAM MORTAZ is an Iranian-American writer, translator, and author of the short story collection Pushkin and Other Stories.
"Offering new insight into the poet's spiritual life, these poems prove a valuable addition to Rumi's oeuvre." --Publishers Weekly

Q: How can I pass input data(string) and save without any page loading? User has_one UserProfile, and UserProfile has a column called message
Here, I want to save input data of message field without any page loading.
As you see  my View, It access to message_update via put in background when I press Update button.
In Controller, how can I receive the input data, and save it to the column message of user_profile table?
I have no idea how to code it in Controller:(
I think I'm almost there:)
Can anyone show me how to code it?
Thanks!
Contorller
def message_update

    current_user.save

    if request.xhr?  # ajax request
        respond_to do |format|
            format.js {render :action=>"message_update.js"}
        end
    else
        redirect_to users_path
    end

end

View
    <%= form_for(current_user, :url => {:controller => "users", :action => "message_update" }, :remote => true, :class => 'form-search') do |f| %>
        <%= f.fields_for :user_profile do |profile_form| %>
            <div class="input-append">
                <%= profile_form.text_field :message, :class => 'span6' %>
                <button type="submit" class="btn">Update</button>
            </div>
        <% end %>
    <% end %>

Routes
get 'message_update' => 'users#message_update', :via => :put

and now, this is getting routing error:(
ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches [PUT] "/message_update"):

A: Change routing to
put 'message_update' => 'users#message_update'

Explanation
You trying to update existing user (since it's current_user) so you should use HTTP PUT verb that is reserved to update objects.
In Rails 4 you could also write
patch 'message_update' => 'users#message_update'

but it's just syntactic sugar (alias for put)
Also, you have an error in yous controller. Since you only want to save one field value, I'd recommend writing
current_user.user_profile.update_attribute :message, params['user']['user_profile_attributes']['message']

A: Change this
get 'message_update' => 'users#message_update', :via => :put

to
match 'message_update' => 'users#message_update', :via => :put

A: You are specifying your route as a get request.  Change it to:
match 'message_update' => 'users#message_update', :via => :put

Amidst the many Mughal women who have remained lost in years of obscurity, is the story of "the concealed one", Zebunissa (also, Zeb-un-Nissa)! A child prodigy in the court of Shah Jahan, she was the eldest child of Emperor Aurangzeb and Dilras Banu Begum.
Witty, sharp, opinionated, caring, courageous : Zebunissa's story is unlike the Princesses in any fables we've grown up on. In her story, she yearns – but not for a Prince Charming; she writes, she learns, she advises on politics, – and she aces poetry slams! Through her experiences, we learn about the importance of self-worth, consent, and making your own identity.
Zebunissa was way ahead in terms of her accomplishments than most princesses of her time. The poetess Hafiza Maryam, one of the women of the court, was charged with the education of Zeb-un-Nissa and her sisters. She taught them how to recite the Quran.
Imagine getting a 2-day public holiday in your honour at the age of 7! It wasn't just a sharp memory, Zebunissa was gifted with. She was a learner at heart – curious about everything around. Her quest for learning only deepened under scholars of the court such as Mohammad Saeed Ashraf Mazandarani. She took to learning astronomy, mathematics, philosophy, and literature; excelled in languages (Persian, Arabic, Urdu), and had a great hand at calligraphy too! Believe it or not, owing to her her expert understanding of 'Law', she was often consulted on Administrative matters too!
And if that weren't enough, her fashion sense was spot on! She modified a garment worn by Turki women to suit the needs of the Indian (the subcontinent) women!
Other reports also state how Shah Rustum Ghazi (another scholar in the court) encouraged and directed Zebunissa's literary tastes; on his request, Aurangzeb (known to have little love for the arts) made an exception in favour of Zebunissa and invited poets to his court.
Historian & Writer Rana Safvi mentions: Some of the poets whom she interacted with were Nasir Ali, Sayab, Shams Waliullah, Brahmin, and Behraaz.
This group of poets would match each other in skill and often have a 'tarahi' competition where each poet completed a given line within the same metre in his/her own way.
Zebunissa excelled in tarahi muqabala.
Even though Zebunissa memorized the Qur'an, she didn't quite share her father's enthusiasm or views around religion. Where religion was concerned, the Sufi-influence of her aunt Jahanara and uncle Dara Shikoh was evident in her writings.
Zebunnissa's sense of Self-Worth and the Courage to say 'No'.
Zebunissa's poetry often speaks of 'longing' and 'love'. But if you're thinking she was waiting to be married, you couldn't be further from reality!
While she had many suitors, she was careful about who she chose. She insisted on seeing the Princes and 'testing' their skills to understand how 'accomplished' they were. One such suitor was Mirza Farukh, son of Shah Abbas II of Iran; she wrote to him to come to Delhi so that she might see what he was like.
here will I serve, and here alone is happiness."
How light dost thou esteem this game of love, O child. Nothing dost thou know of the fever of longing, and the fire of separation, and the burning flame of love.
Zebunissa would rather be single than be with someone she didn't think highly of. Big lesson there, girls.
Zebunissa used most of her allowances in the pursuit of poetry and the arts – but not just for herself. She enabled other creative minds to prosper too, and spent her allowances in giving out 'grants', aiding the publishing and production of many interesting works.
She created an entire department of writers, calligraphers and other learned people, to work on translations of classics and original writings. Reports suggest that she sponsored Mullah Safluddin Ardbeli for a trip to Kashmir where he translated the 'Tafsir-i-Kabir', a commentary on the Quran (from Arabic to Persian); though rumour has it that she herself was the author of the commentry!
Zebunissa wrote under the nom de plume 'Makhfi' or 'the hidden one' – adopted from her great-grandmother, Salima Sultan Begum (who was an accomplished writer herself)!
The name perfectly resonated with her Sufi-belief that 'only after death and in union with the true Beloved – God' – would she disclose her face.
Her library was also known for being one of a kind!
This is what adorns my beauty, and my name is Zebunissa, the adorned of (amongst) women!

Not too long ago, I talked about eggs. Today we talk about the chicken. So I guess we have that answer!
One of the easiest and most versatile proteins you'll find on the slow-carb diet is chicken. I find it's the quickest way to a solid slow-carb meal when I don't know what else to have.
It can be easy to get tired of the same old thing every time, though. In an attempt to help you overcome the boredom, I've gone around the internet looking for some of the best chicken recipes and put them in one spot.
To determine what would go on the list of the dozens upon dozens I saw, I answered one question: what would I love to have for dinner tonight?
Here are the internet's 30 best slow-carb chicken recipes! I had a hard time deciding how to categorize them, but this is what I came up with.
Do you have a favorite chicken recipe? Share it in the comments!
