Q: ORMLite Service stack Self reference tables I have a class of companies and sub companies. These can be nested to any level and displayed in a treeview. I am trying to figure out how to do a self reference in ormlite to build out a hierarchy using the below DTO.  With the below I get ambiguous column name errors. Is this approach a bad idea with Service stack?
public class Company : DTOServiceStackBase
{
    [AutoIncrement]
    [PrimaryKey]
    public int Id { get; set; }

    [Required]
    public string Name { get; set; }

    public string Address { get; set; }

    [References(typeof(Company))]
    public int ParentId { get; set; }
}

The below DTO works fine in ORMLite. I would prefer the cleaner implementation above.
public class Company : DTOServiceStackBase
    {
        [AutoIncrement]
        [PrimaryKey]
        public int Id { get; set; }

        [Required]
        public string Name { get; set; }

        public string Address { get; set; }

        [Reference] // Save in SubCompanies table
        public List<SubCompany> SubCompanies { get; set; }
    }

    public class SubCompany : Company
    {
        [References(typeof(Company))]
        public int ChildCompanyId { get; set; }

        [References(typeof(Company))]
        public int ParentCompanyId { get; set; }
    }

EDIT Based on Mythz's Response
Here is my working code for anyone who wants to use it.
[Route("/Company/{Id}", "GET")]
public class GetCompaniesById : IReturn<GetCompaniesFlatTree>

    public int? ParentId { get; set; }
}

[Route("/CompaniesTree", "GET")]
public class GetCompaniesTree : IReturn<Company>{}

    public class DTOServiceStackBase {

A: To maintain a tree relationship you would just need to have a nullable int? ParentId in the Company table where Company with NULL ParentId is the root company whilst iterating through the rest of the companies to populate a Dictionary<int,List<Company>> indexed by the parent Id.
This isn't related to an OrmLite Self Reference which just means to maintain the FK Reference to a different table on the table containing the reference.

Large, Dangerous Tornado Outbreak Forecast for Friday
U.S. states hit hard by Wednesday's tornadoes face another storm threat
By Dan DePodwin, AccuWeather on March 1, 2012
Tornadoes are forecast to swarm Friday through a very large and populated area of the nation, stretching from Illinois, Indiana and Ohio to Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and other states.
After a brief reprieve from severe weather today, a storm system emerging from the Rockies late this afternoon will act as the trigger for another round of dangerous storms in portions of recently hard-hit states and others late tonight through Friday.
Although residents in the Ohio and Tennessee valleys will have dry but breezy weather for clean-up efforts today, the tranquil weather will not last long.
Late tonight, storms are expected to erupt across eastern Arkansas, western Tennessee and northern Mississippi. Hail will be the greatest threat from this initial round of thunderstorms.
In light of less than perfect atmospheric conditions in the tornado and severe weather outbreak Tuesday night and Wednesday, it seems this potential event may have many key ingredients coming together.
Warm, moist air will combine with strong winds aloft in such a way to generate powerful thunderstorms that may spawn tornadoes.
The first storms are forecast to ignite near the Mississippi River late Friday morning into Friday afternoon and push eastward into the evening hours across the Ohio and Tennessee valley states.
Cities under the gun include Nashville, Tenn., Louisville, Ky., Cincinnati, Ohio, and Indianapolis, Ind.
In addition to the usual heavy rainfall and frequent lightning that accompanies thunderstorms, these storms could produce damaging winds, large hail and tornadoes.
AccuWeather.com meteorologists are concerned that Friday's severe weather outbreak has the potential to be more substantial than the one that blasted through similar areas Tuesday night and Wednesday.
The midweek outbreak was responsible for 12 deaths and 30 tornado reports.
The storms at the end of this week may be stronger and may cover a larger and more heavily populated area from the Midwest to the South, like some outbreaks from the past.
By Friday night, thunderstorms are expected to continue to whip eastward, rumbling through the Appalachians. If the storms remain intact, they could bring severe weather from Georgia through the Carolinas Saturday.
Stay tuned to AccuWeather.com through the end of the week as we continuously monitor and update this potentially significant severe weather outbreak.

NACCHO Aboriginal #Vote1RuralHealth #VoteACCHO #AusVotesHealth : Major health groups @NRHAlliance @amapresident @RuralDoctorsAus express concern over lack of #Election2019 focus on #RuralHealth #RemoteCommunities
" We have a crisis in rural Australia – health outcomes have not improved and we continue to see measurable disparities in levels of access to health care and health outcomes.
I note that yesterday the Australian Medical Association and the Rural Doctors Association of Australia raised similar concerns. They're concerned about the lack of a comprehensive plan to boost the rural medical workforce and staffing levels in hospitals and health services."
Mark Diamond CEO National Rural Health Alliance See full press release PART 1
"It is inconceivable that millions of Australians who experience higher incidence of the drivers of chronic disease could be overlooked.
People in rural, regional, and remote Australia face many obstacles when they require access to the full range of quality medical and health services.
There are shortages of doctors and other health professionals.
It is harder to access specialist services such as maternity and mental health.
And country people often have to travel to capital cities and large regional centres for vital services such as major surgery or cancer care."
We need to see tailored and targeted policies to address these inequities.
Rural Australians deserve nothing less."
AMA President, Dr Tony Bartone, said today that rural Australians are still waiting to hear major announcements from the major parties to address the serious and specific health needs of rural and remote communities. See Part 2 Below
" With less than two weeks left to go until polling day, rural doctors are calling out the major parties on their absence of a comprehensive plan to boost the rural medical workforce.
This is a cone of silence that Maxwell Smart would be proud of
There continues to be a massive maldistribution of doctors and other health professionals between urban Australia and the bush, yet this critical issue remains largely overlooked. "
President of the Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA), Dr Adam Coltzau
NACCHO has developed a set of policy 10 #Election2019 recommendations that if adopted, fully funded and implemented by the incoming Federal Government, will provide a pathway forward for improvements in our health outcomes.
The current health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are unacceptable. 65% of Indigenous people live in rural Australia.
We are calling on all political parties to include these 10 recommendations in their election platforms and make a real commitment to improving the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and help us Close the Gap.
Our ACCHO TOP 10 key asks of a new Federal Government
Read all the 10 Recommendations HERE
A chorus of concern over the major parties' failure to focus on rural health issues in the election campaign is growing, the National Rural Health Alliance says.
The peak body for rural, regional and remote health says the 7 million people living in rural Australia have been unable to discern what the big health policy announcements mean for them.
"Nor has there been a specific focus by the Liberal-Nationals Coalition and Labor on how access to health and preventive health services will be improved for them," CEO Mark Diamond said.
"We have a crisis in rural Australia – health outcomes have not improved and we continue to see measurable disparities in levels of access to health care and health outcomes.
"The Greens have acknowledged that they recognize the significance of health care in rural areas and have issued a specific rural health statement which I commend them for.
"And yesterday, the Independent candidate for Indi, Helen Haines, joined the call for a boost to the allied health professions taskforce.
"Getting more allied health professionals into rural Australia is vital to address the chronic inequality of access to health services.
"This is a key part of the National Rural Health Alliance's 2019 Election Charter." (See www.ruralhealth.org.au/election19)
The NRHA is calling for
An additional 3000 Aboriginal Health Workers and practitioners
Increased funding for Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (Labor has committed some funds for this)
An additional 3000 allied health positions
Trials created in 20 rural and remote sites to test for the best workforce models
A community grants program that communities can apply to for funds for better digital infrastructure so they can access healthcare online
Medicare rebates for online or telehealth consults to people in outer regional, remote and very remote areas
A special Mission for Rural Health created in the Medical Research Future Fund that is allocated a share of the fund proportionate to the population in rural Australia (28% = $360m)
A commitment to endorse the Uluru Statement and establish a Makarrata Commission for the sake of the nation's wellbeing
Mr Diamond said parties must show they can govern for all of Australia, not just cities.
With 28% of the population and 7 million people, it's important that all parties represent the interests of people in country areas. Rural health matters.
AMA President, Dr Tony Bartone, said today that rural Australians are still waiting to hear major announcements from the major parties to address the serious and specific health needs of rural and remote communities.
Dr Bartone said it is surprising and disappointing that rural health remains largely neglected this far into the election campaign.
"It is inconceivable that millions of Australians who experience higher incidence of the drivers of chronic disease could be overlooked," Dr Bartone said.
"We need to see tailored and targeted policies to address these inequities. Rural Australians deserve nothing less."
Dr Bartone said that there will be some flow-on to rural Australia from the policies already announced by the major parties, including public hospital funding, new PBS drugs, the Government's Rural Generalist Pathway medical training initiatives, and Labor's cancer and seniors' dental plans, but there are still major gaps.
"It is staggering that there was very little mention of rural health during last week's Health Debate at the National Press Club," Dr Bartone said.
"The situation is critical.
"Rural communities need real investment in medical infrastructure and incentives to attract more permanent doctors.
"Country towns are seeing medical services closed on them with no other options provided.
"Rural maternity services are deteriorating. Earlier this year, expectant mothers in Queensland were sent DIY birthing kits because their nearest birthing unit was too far to get to.
"Many communities are struggling with few or no doctors, and many doctors will be looking to retire in the coming years with no one there to take over for them.
"In a recent AMA poll, the top priority for our rural doctors was extra funding and resources for hospitals to support improved staffing levels, including core visiting medical officers, to allow workable rosters.
"The pressure on public hospital staff and resources is felt even more acutely in rural, regional, and remote areas.
"Training the next generation of rural doctors is a major priority. We need strategic policies that support students from rural backgrounds to study medicine.
"We want to see investment in programs that create positive training experiences for prevocational doctors in rural areas.
"We need to support these students to complete their training rurally so that they can choose to stay to live and work in rural areas and deliver the care these communities need.
"Rural Australian families need the confidence and comfort of being able to see a doctor or other health professional when they need care or advice, and to be able to get to hospital when they are sick or injured.
"It is not too late for the major parties to provide rural Australians with that security."
The AMA's Key Health Issues for the 2019 Federal Election calls on the major parties to:
provide funding and resources to support improved staffing levels and workable rosters for rural doctors, including better access to locum relief and investment in hospital facilities, equipment, and practice infrastructure;
expand the successful Specialist Training Program to 1,400 places by 2021, with higher priority being given to training places in regional and rural areas, generalist training, and specialties that are undersupplied;
fund a further 425 rural GP infrastructure grants of up to $500,000 each;
provide additional funding/grants to individual GPs and practices to support nonvocationally registered doctors to attain fellowship through the More Doctors for Rural Australia Program; and
support further reforms to medical school selection criteria for Commonwealth supported students; and introduce changes to the structure of courses so that the targeted intake of medical students from a rural background is lifted from 25 per cent of all new enrolments to one-third of all new enrolments, and the proportion of medical students required to undertake at least one year of clinical training in a rural area is lifted from 25 per cent to one-third.

Part 3 Rural doctors urge parties to "Get Smart" on rural health workforce plan
With less than two weeks left to go until polling day, rural doctors are calling out the major parties on their absence of a comprehensive plan to boost the rural medical workforce.
President of the Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA), Dr Adam Coltzau, said.
"There continues to be a massive maldistribution of doctors and other health professionals between urban Australia and the bush, yet this critical issue remains largely overlooked.
"Yes, there has been funding committed by both the Coalition and Labor to kick-start a National Rural Generalist Pathway, and this is very welcome – but if the major parties think that the Pathway will be the panacea for the shortage of doctors and other health professionals in the bush, they are sadly mistaken.
"The Pathway needs to be just one component of a much wider rural health workforce strategy – one that not only delivers more Rural Generalist doctors to the bush, but also more GPs, specialists, nurses, midwives and allied health professionals.
"The challenges of accessing health services in rural areas have not been resolved, and will require the incoming government to 'get smart' in improving this.
"It will require a practical, big picture strategy, not just tinkering at the edges.
"It will require the incoming government to invest in more training places in the bush, so newly-minted doctors are able to access the training they need in their intern and junior doctor years.
"There is real opportunity for rural hospitals, rural general practices and other rural health settings to meet the growing demand for junior doctor training, and to keep these doctors in the bush – but the right supports will be needed to make this happen.
"More also needs to be done to increase the capacity for regional training opportunities in non-GP Specialist training and Advanced Skills posts.
"These places are largely controlled by the specialist colleges, and it is virtually impossible for young doctors to access this training outside metropolitan areas or very large regional centres.
"This makes it very difficult for those doctors who want a career as a non-GP specialist in rural Australia to follow that path.
"The lack of commitment from the major parties to fix the rural health workforce crisis is a major black hole in the election campaign – and it needs urgent attention before polling day."

View Full Version : Do You Dream of Darkness?
Arrey wearily approached the huge rocky mesa. The two Tatooine suns were setting, casting long shadows on the ground. As she neared a ladder camouflaged against the brown rock thoughts flew through her mind. Failure, Defeat, Loss. Nearly two days ago the young Sith lord experienced each of these against the Jedi in the space above Nal Hutta. Arrey gripped the sides of the ladder and started up. As she looked above her she saw a pair of glowing red eyes glaring down at her.
Her master, lord Sadok Valozan would be greatly displeased with her, and possibly kill her out of his anger. But that was the way of the Sith and the way of the dark side; she had tread too far down that path to turn around now, not matter how much she regretted it. Arrey reached the top, and strong gloved hands pulled her to her feet.
Valozan had a powerful, formidable appearance. He stood nearly seven feet tall. He was clothed in a tattered black cloak, with dark Sith armor underneath. Under his low hood sat a terrifying silver mask shaped as a long demonic skull; glowing red eyes shone brightly. Protruding from his knees and elbows were long curved silver spikes; and a gold and black lighsaber hung from his black leather belt.
"You have failed me," he said in a low and raspy voice.
Arrey bowed her head in fear, "Yes my master, I-." she was cut off as Valozan's hand struck her hard across the face. Arrey would have fallen off the edge of the mesa if Valozan's hand did not grip her still.
Tears streamed from Arrey's yellow eyes down her pale face. "I hate you!" she yelled. She pulled the lightsaber from her master's belt. The moment it landed in her hand she lunged at him letting out a ferocious scream. But before she brought the lightsaber down Valozan turned around with hand raised. A blast of force lightning slammed into Arrey, carrying her back to the edge of the opposite end of the flat top of the mesa. She had dropped the lightsaber and was now laying on the ground. Smoke rose from her body. She was drained entirely of energy and was helpless.
Valozan approached her. He picked up his lightsaber. "Challenge me again and I will make your death so painful that you won't even be able to scream." Arrey fell asleep, thinking of her master's words.
Just finished reading the last updates. Keep it up!
I like the way you write it fro the sith's point of view. It's different... in a good way.
Thanks for correcting me. I proof read the story twice, must have missed it. If you see any more problems please notify me as soon as possible. Thanks.
Maybe the key is to have someone else proofread? I'll just be sure that the following post has no errors.
Darkness had surrounded Arrey, lightning was surging through her body. She remembered screaming for mercy but her assailant, her Master, had given her none. She had activated her lightsaber and swung wildly but that had not decreased the pain. Even now, in the morning, she could still feel the pain of her nightmare from the previous night. Arrey sat on the edge, overlooking the desert. Valozan was gone, she didn't know where. He often left their hideout early in the morning and never came back the entire day. Arrey was used to it.
Her master confused her. She had never seen Valozan sleep, eat, or drink, if not for the fact that he had the power of the force Arrey would believe him to be a droid of some sort. She had never seen the face beneath his mask, she had never seen the skin on his arms, or his bare hands. There was no evidence that anything other than pure darkness dwelled under that armor.
Arrey stood to her feet and looked around. The flat top of the mesa had been turned into a hideout. A small crevice in the top served as protection from sand storms; Valozan never used it however, and Arrey knew that he thought of her as pathetic because she did. There was no place for protection from the twin suns that beat down upon the two Sith.
Arrey decided to venture into the nearest city, Anchorhead, to refresh her supplies. The young Sith got dressed in her usual black robes. After pulling down her hood to shield her face from the sun she started down the ladder.
Anchorhead was busier than normal. Beings of all sorts, from Whipids to Jawas, roamed the desert city's streets. It was a good thing though, the more beings there were, the more she blended in. Arrey ducked into a small shop, to get out of the crowds and the heat. Buildings on Tatooine had thick wall to keep cool air in and hot air out.
"Sure," he said casually, "right this way." He started to walk from behind the counter but then stopped suddenly. He grabbed his neck and collapsed on the floor.
"Never mind, I think I can find it myself," Arrey murmured as she stepped over the body. Every eye in the shop was fixed on her, and Arrey knew that she had directly disobeyed her master by calling attention to herself. Yet there was something satisfying about displaying her power to these lowlifes.
One of them stood up, a human, large and dirty. "I don't know you are or what you-." Arrey didn't let him finish. The man was suddenly thrown in to the wall head first. There was a sickening crack as his head made contact with the rock and his spine shattered.
"-Or what I did?" Arrey said finishing for him. "It's called the dark side, friend." As the rest of the inhabitants of the shop started moving towards the door in fear a plan formulated in Arrey's mind. A plan to impress her master, Arrey still needed him if she was ever to gain more power. She needed hin to respect her enough to give her all his secrets. With a quick flick of her wrist the door slid shut and locked.
"Please don't try to fight me," Arrey said softly, "the last few days have been hard on me." The one that seemed to be the leader, a near human of some sort, faced her.
"You're outnumbered witch," he said, attempting to sound brave, but Arrey could see the fear behind his eyes.
"Whatever," he muttered drawing his blaster. He fired two shots. Arrey rolled out of the way. Grabbing a steel rod with the force she pulled it to her outstretched hand. She leaped into the air across the room and landed in front of the thug. She jabbed him in the stomach with the end of the rod. He let out a grunt. She spun and kicked him in the jaw with the heel of her boot; he spun to the ground, unconscious.
By now other blasters were drawn and firing at her. Arrey enjoyed the fighting, the fear, the reckless hate, but this was not her goal. "Everyone stop!" she pleaded, dodging yet another laser. But the shots kept coming. "Stop!" she screamed. Before she knew what was happening her hand was raised and blue lightening engulfed the each of the beings. Some let out tortured screams of agony and others never knew what hit them. But when the dust cleared Arrey stood alone, surrounded my bodies, sizzling and smoking bodies.
Arrey swore, "You should have listened to me," she shouted, "I could've let you live. The girl realized that tears were streaming down her face, though she didn't know why. She had been taught all her life to treat other lives as worthless, and to be indifferent or glad when they died. Not willing to spend another moment with the dead the young Sith dashed for the back door.
Yan Kai and his apprentice Jace Dian pulled the small transport out of hyperspace above the planet Tatooine. They had received anonymous information that a Dark Jedi had been in the city of Anchorhead for several days. Yan knew that this Dark Jedi was actually the Sith Lord Arrey Sisek. Shortly after she left Nal Hutta the Jedi had arrived. Tracking the name provided by the Jedi Council they found that she had left on a ship destined for the Outer Rim.
Yan set the ship down in one of the open hangars after following all the customs of landing in a spaceport. It had been easy, as it usually was on Tatooine. They don't really care who you are or what you cargo is.
Jace nodded his head at his master. "It might not be so hard to find her after all." Yan followed his Padawan's gaze and spotted a large crowd of thugs and armed ruffians moving down the street, and at the head was a figure robed in black.
Yan Kai watched carefully as the dark figure strode toward them, followed by at least two-dozen thugs. Silently he began to move toward an alley that broke off of the street. Jace followed. They ducked behind some refuse and watched the street. The figure and her soldiers walked into view. Yan heard Jace breathe a sigh of relief as the group moved on past them, they hadn't been spotted.
Yan and Jace stepped out into the street. Jace watched as Yan moved purposefully towards the group, hand on his lightsaber hilt. Jace knew what was required of him. The young Jedi reached into his brown cloak and pulled out his own lightsaber. Activating its red blade he gathered the Force around him and sprung into the air. Jace landed behind the Sith lord and held his lightsaber across her neck. "Hello again," he said.
Behind him his Master was holding his own lightsaber. Jace felt a surge in the Force and his Master was gone. A blur ran through the ranks of the surprised thugs and a green lightsaber sliced their weapons in half. Yan fought with such speed and agility the thugs were unable to fire a shot. In moments all of there weapons lay sizzling on the sand. But to Jace's surprise none of the thugs ran, they all stood their ground.
A crowd had gathered to watch. Jace knew that they were jeopardizing their own safety and shouted out, "Jedi business, be on your way." But none of the citizens moved nor did Jace expect them to. Yan slowed down to normal speed once again and held his lightsaber ready.
The girl in front of him did not try to escape. "Foolish Jedi," she hissed, "we both know that you cannot kill me nor any of my men. It is a victory of the Dark Side no matter what you do, stay and kill...or leave us with our lives." Jace had been concentrating on the young Sith and he had not noticed a crumbling piece of rock headed towards him. It struck his hand and pain shot up his arm. He dropped his lightsaber and stepped back.
Arrey laughed. "Once again the Jedi's weakness is their downfall." She used the force to pull the lightsaber to her and she activated her own. She held the two crimson blades ready for attack.
Arrey stared into the Padawan's blue eyes. To her surprise she saw no sign of anger or look of vengeance, only compassion and sorrow. His display of mercy had astounded her. If she was in his place she would have sliced off her opponent's head without hesitation. Yet this Jedi had let her survive even after what had happened previously when he had done the same. Maybe Arrey would let this boy live, so he could stop girls like her and men such as her master, maybe-.
Her thoughts were cut short as the Jedi Master leaped over her soldiers and planted the bottom of his boot in her face. Ignoring the pain she used the momentum to flip backwards and land on her feet. Thoughts of rage coursed through her and she charged the Jedi, swinging ferociously. The master, caught off guard by the speed and strength of her assault was driven backwards. But the Padawan flipped and landed behind her.
The Jedi grabbed both of her wrists and wrestled with her lightsabers. Arrey brought up her foot and struck him in the jaw but he held on. With a last effort the Jedi pulled his own lightsaber from her grasp and rolled backwards to avoid her swing. The Jedi Master swung and Arrey had to duck to barely avoid getting hit.
The Jedi turned to face the oncoming horde of thugs. Arrey used their distraction to charge the master. But before she reached him his foot shot out and kicked her hard in the stomach. She grunted and flew back to the ground. He'll pay for that, thought as she stood to her feet. He will die.
Yan twisted to avoid getting punched. The thugs were swinging madly, without any thought of there own lives. "Immobilize them," he told Jace. "But don't kill them." With a sweep of his green lighsaber Yan sliced three of the thugs through the ankles, dropping them. He spun to cut off a hand, and then use the force to carry another away. Jace was walking through the crowd of thugs, lightsaber swinging. Limbs were severed off and beings dropped to the ground, but not a single one of them were killed. In a short time the each one of them lay on the ground moaning.
The bystanders looked at the Jedi in fear and in respect. But still they didn't leave. Both the Jedi turned and looked to the roof where the Sith lord had escaped to. Now she stood with another. A giant of a man dressed all in black torn robes. On his face there was a silver skull mask, and curved spikes rose from his knees and elbows. In his hand was a red lightsaber.
"Sadok Valozan," Yan mumbled to himself.
Valozan jumped down from the roof of the two-story building and started walking towards the two. "Take care of the apprentice, make sure she doesn't escape," Yan told Jace. "And then come back and save my life." Without a word Jace sprinted toward the building and flew into the air, over Valozan and he landed on the roof in front of Arrey.
Jace held his lightsaber in a defensive position, and watched the girl's every move carefully. Arrey held up her lightsaber in a position ready to attack. Her yellow eyes flared and she ran at Jace. The Padawan side-stepped to avoid the downwards swing made by the young Sith. Arrey immediately whirled and her blade hit his. Jace flipped backward to give himself time to recover from the blow. But no later than the moment his feet touched the roof again he had to parry another attack. Simultaneously they both swung, their red blades clashed and the air around them sizzled with energy.
Jace pushed with all his strength with his lightsaber, forcing it back towards the Sith. The girl's teeth were clenched as she pushed back. But Jace was the stronger of the two, and pushed her weapon aside. She was now open for an attack. But as the Padawan moved his lightsaber towards her, her leg snapped up and kicked his hand away. She then, with her free hand, swung and Jace, striking the Padawan across the jaw. He stumbled backwards.
Jace had no time to recover before the Sith lord was on him again. Swinging hard and fast, her lightsaber a blur. The fury of the attack drove Jace backward to the edge of the roof. But as her lightsaber came down at him again he managed to duck out of the way and step behind the girl. But before he could do anything he heard an ear-deafening mechanical noise from behind, and instinctively he leaped into the air. A large speeder flew beneath him and Jace landed on the edge of the rear of the speeder.
The pilot looked over his shoulder at the Jedi surprised. "Stop the ship!" Jace yelled at him over the noise of the engines. The Sith lord was no where in sight, and Jace couldn't afford to leave his Master to face two Sith lords. But before the pilot could oblige to Jace's order a black figure landed on the front of the speeder. It was the Sith lord. She swung at the pilot's head, slicing it clean off. He slumped dead, his feet still on the thrust pedals. But the speeder dived and started to rocket towards the street below. Jace quickly seized the controls with the force and brought the ship back up.
The girl jumped across the speeder, the wind carrying her to give her extra speed. Jace ducked and blocked her lightsaber. Arrey was now holding onto the back of the pilot's seat to keep from being whisked off by the wind. Jace had no protection and it was all he could do to keep from being carried off. He had to fight the wind, use the force to stabilize the ship, and fight the Sith who already outmatched him in lightsaber skill. But Jace knew that he had the power of the Light side, and the Dark side would not prevail.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, he parried each of Arrey's swings but never returned an attack. The time was now, he back flipped off the edge of the speeder and landed several meter's down on the roof of a building, his momentum made him roll across the hard roof, but he was unscathed. He opened his eyes to see Arrey, still on the speeder, looking down at him. She could not see where it was headed. Tall thick poles extended from the roof of the spaceport. Sensing the danger Arrey looked over her shoulder. She jumped, but it was too late. The speeder made contact with the poles and exploded. The shock wave carried her across the air and down to the roof. She hit it hard and lay still.
Jace deactivated his lightsaber and ran over to her. He turned her on her back. The girl was cut up pretty bad and blood streamed down her face. Jace knew that he couldn't leave her to die, and that the council needed to decide her fate. He put his hand on her forehead and called upon the force to heal her.
Arrey turned around and faced the city. "I suppose you won't let me walk off," she muttered.
Jace watched her carefully. She was too beat up to attempt an escape, and she lost her lightsaber in the explosion. The Padawan activated his own lightsaber. "Now I must take you to my Master." Arrey nodded and slowly turned around, a somber look was on her face.
Jace saw past her eyes, into her very soul and knew there was good in this girl. It wasn't too late for her. She could be saved. Jace realized how much he pitied her. "I'm so sorry Arrey," he mumbled, forcing out the words. The he closed his eyes, and fell over dead. His body disappeared and Jace Dian became one with the force.
Arrey stood there, alone on the rooftop weeping loudly. She let go of the lightsaber and dropped to her knees. There was nothing left for her to do but return to her master. Arrey stood back to her feet, and began to walk back.
Yan Kai twisted and blocked. He ducked to avoid another swipe of the Sith lord's red lightsaber. He rolled backwards and stood to his feet. But Valozan was already upon him. Yan had not been able to get off an attack, he had been on the defensive for the entire battle. There was no way he could take down this Sith.
"You can feel that I speak the truth, can't you Master Kai?" Valozan replied. Suddenly a wave of sadness and regret washed over Yan as he felt his Padawan become one with the force.
"No!" He screamed and called upon the force to push the Sith lord off of him. Valozan flew across the street and collided with a durasteel wall, denting it in. The Sith Master dropped to the ground. Yan leaped across the street and bought his green lightsaber down upon Valozan. It cut through his black cloak and into his armor. The Sith lord did not shout in pain or even flinch. But when he turned onto his back Yan could see that he had done damage. The was a hole in the front of Valozan's armor, Yan's lightsaber had pierced right through him. As he brought up his lightsaber to deal the final blow a wave of force energy slammed into him, carrying the Jedi back several meters and into the ground.
He saw Arrey run up next to her fallen Master. The girl helped him to his feet. As Yan stood to move toward the two nearly half of the crowd that stood around him moved to block his way. "You can't pass," one of the being shouted. Yan gathered the force around him to jump over the throng, but then saw that it was to late. The two Sith lords were climbing into a speeder, they had escape once again.
interesting way to take it.
It was evening on Tatooine. Arrey stood next to her Master on one of the giant rocky arches that sat in the Dune Sea. The twin suns were setting, casting yellow and orange light over everything in view. As she looked over the endless sand and thought of Jace, and the Jedi. She opened her mouth to speak but her Master spoke first.
"Arrey, you have destroyed one Jedi and stopped another. Something I had failed to do. I am proud of you Arrey." Then to the young girl's great surprise Sadok Valozan reached up and removed his mask. Beneath it sat an old face, a very old face. Twisted and darkened by the Dark side. His orange eyes penetrated her. He smiled. "I am so amazed by you power Arrey Sisek," he said, putting both of his hands on either of Arrey's shoulders.
Arrey was overwhelmed by her Master's sudden praise. She didn't no what to say. "You have become more powerful than me Arrey," her Master continued. "So powerful..." Suddenly he raised his knee. The long curved spike pierced through Arrey stomach and emerged from her back. She let out a gasp. "And we can't have that no can we," Valozan said, still smiling. He wrenched his knee from her stomach and Arrey dropped to her knees. She looked down at the wound, deep red blood poured out. She held it and looked up at her Master who was putting his helmet back on.
"I apologize Arrey," Valozan said. "But you would have killed me in the end and become the Master." Arrey stared up at him. How could she say that she wouldn't, that she finally saw the galaxy the way that the Jedi did, how could she say that in so little time?
"I'm sorry," was all she was able to force out before she tipped over, and lay dead in the sand.
Valozan stood in the sand alone over the dead girl. He turned in satisfaction and began to walk away. But his apprentice's last word puzzled him. What had she meant? Valozan sighed and walked into the desert, towards his home.
Yan sat quietly in the pilot's seat of his transport. He was in hyperspace en route to Corascant. He had much to meditate on. Things such as the will of the Force, the evil of the Dark sides, and the bravery and the righteousness of one Jedi who stood for his beliefs until the point of death, and he knew, that in the end, good had prevailed over evil.

AB Government: Fresh perspectives for caribou recovery planning
by ahnationtalk on November 5, 201932 Views
Alberta's three sub-regional caribou task forces took an important first step toward fulfilling their mandate to support caribou recovery while protecting jobs.
Members of the task forces, which include representatives of municipalities, Indigenous communities, industry, recreational users and environmental non-government organizations, held their first meeting in Edmonton to discuss a uniquely Albertan solution that will support both a working landscape and caribou recovery.
"Task force members represent people who work, play, raise their families, exercise treaty rights and engage in traditional land uses in areas where caribou recovery is a key consideration. I'm happy to advance this important government platform commitment and work toward solutions that are practical, balanced and grounded in socio-economic analysis and respect for our land and biodiversity."
Jason Nixon, Minister of Environment and Parks
The three task forces have a total of 42 members, plus three local MLAs who will serve as chairs:
David Hanson, MLA for Bonnyville-Cold Lake-St. Paul
Dan Williams, MLA for Peace River
Martin Long, MLA for West Yellowhead
The province worked with industry and local communities, including First Nations, over the summer to identify people to serve on the task forces.
The purpose of the caribou sub-regional task forces is to:
Advise government regarding the sub-regional planning process to ensure local input is considered in the development of the draft plans
Ensure that sub-regional plans, including caribou range plans, are subject to a comprehensive social, environmental and economic impact assessment, and
Review and consider the Draft Provincial Woodland Caribou Range Plan (Dec. 2017) in the context of more holistic sub-regional planning.
Alberta is home to 15 caribou herds. Initially, the task forces will focus their efforts on providing recommendations to government regarding sub-regional planning for Cold Lake, Bistcho Lake and Upper Smokey planning areas, which will address recovery outcomes for the Bistcho, Cold Lake, Redrock-Prairie Creek and Narraway caribou ranges.
Recommendations for the Cold Lake sub-regional plan are expected to be drafted by the end March 2020, with Bistcho following in summer of 2020 and Upper Smoky in fall of 2020.
The task forces will provide advice on the development of the remaining sub-regional plans and affected caribou ranges after work on the initial three areas is complete.
The establishment of the sub-regional caribou task forces fulfils a government platform commitment to form a caribou range task force.

During July and August 2015, Iranti and Pan Africa ILGA (PAI) hosted two Universal Periodic Review (UPR) workshops, in Swaziland (co-hosted by Rock of Hope and Gender Dynamix) and in Tanzania (co-hosted by Tanzania Trans Initiative).
The UPR is an instrument of the United Nations (UN) Human Rights Council (HRC) aimed at improving the human rights situation on the ground of all 193 member states.
Under the UPR mechanism, the human rights situation of all UN Member States is reviewed every 4.5 years. The UPR is one of the key elements of the Council, which reminds States of their responsibility to fully respect and implement all human rights and fundamental freedoms. The ultimate aim of this mechanism is to improve the human rights situation in all countries and address human rights violations wherever they occur.
A "Shadow" report – information compiled by NGOs, National Human Rights Institutions and other relevant stakeholders.
Shadow reporting is an important tool for NGOs supporting LGBTI rights. It is an opportunity for civil society organisations to highlight issues not raised by their governments or point out where the government may be misleading the committee from the real situation.
Iranti co-hosted constituent consultations for participants from Swaziland and Tanzania to consolidate their knowledge regarding the UPR process and discuss local challenges that the community wanted reflected in the report.
Conversations also took place with human rights based NGOs on how they could mainstream issues of sexual orientation and gender identity in their reporting and in their work generally.
Post-submission workshops on strategies for follow-up will take place later in the year.


New research on how cancer mutations influence a certain type of receptor on the cell membrane opens the way for the development of tailored drugs for certain cancers, such as rectal cancer and lung cancer. This according to researchers at Sweden's Karolinska Institutet and Uppsala University, who have been collaborating with researchers in the UK and USA.
An MIT-led research team has developed a drug capsule that could be used to deliver oral doses of insulin, potentially replacing the injections that people with type 2 diabetes have to give themselves every day. About the size of a blueberry, the capsule contains a small needle made of compressed insulin, which is injected after the capsule reaches the stomach.
People who inherit a faulty copy of the so-called "breast cancer genes" BRCA1 and BRCA2 are at high risk of cancer. About 10 percent of breast cancer cases and 15 percent of ovarian cancers can be traced back to a flaw in one of these genes. A class of drugs known as PARP inhibitors was designed to target tumors with defective BRCA genes.

A nation which isn't
We traveled to Transnistria today. It's a country within a country which probably isn't much larger than New Hanover, Columbus and Brunswick Counties combined. It lies on the Nistra River which separates all of Moldova from Ukraine. This tiny little "nation" declared it's independence in the early 90's and still holds to it's belief that […]

・ High-density print head technology utilizing advanced semiconductor manufacturing Technology "fine", the long print head of 1.07 inches for black ink newly developed for the "Maxify" series (approx. 2.72 cm).
It is about 25% longer than the conventional business inkjet composite machine "Pixma mx923" (released in February 2013), and realizes a more rapid print.
• The black ink printhead is equipped with a temperature-regulating sub-heater to keep the ink temperature constant.
High-viscosity pigment inks with excellent image robustness can be discharged stably at high speed.
・ The print speed is greatly improved by "superimposed transmission" which is carried by stacking the second sheet in the first print.
It achieves 23 sheets of black and white per minute, and 15 high-speed print per color.
・ The first print is completed in about 7 seconds (monochrome) by making the operation before printing part concurrent operation.
・ Large capacity ink tank and up to 500 sheets (250 × 2 steps) are adopted to reduce the frequency of ink tank and paper replacement.
• Newly developed four-color pigment inks (black/cyan/magenta/yellow) for business. The adoption of all-color pigment inks improves image fastness such as water resistance.
Black ink with high density makes it easier to see the characters clearly and improves visibility.
In addition, it is difficult to bleed even if the marker is drawn on the printing part, and the high-quality plain paper print is achieved, such as strong friction by overlapping paper.
Color documents can be printed with vivid colors by design suitable for various business documents such as graphs, documents, and Web pages.
-A4 Ordinary paper ink cost approx. 1.8 Yen (black and white)/approx. 6.1 yen (by Color and tax) * 1 Low running cost is realized.
-compatible with automatic duplex printing for all models, enabling efficient use of paper.
-Energy-saving design of approx. 1.0 W and TEC value of 0.2 kwh in standby power consumption.
※: "mb5330/mb5030/ib4130" is the cost of using a large ink tank.
• Easily print documents and photos in the cloud in conjunction with cloud services such as storage services and SNS.
-From the "maxify" body, of course, you can also operate from the smartphone (smartphone) and tablet.
Wi-Fi and wired internet. Can be shared with more than one PC, smartphone, tablet.
The administrator can "set restrictions" of the printer.

The Chestburster - Film Audio
We're used to seeing the chestburster scene from ALIEN as a visually horrifying moment - the look of Kane and the splatter of blood as the alien erupts from his chest. But listening to the scene audio is perhaps even more disturbing, and an example of not only the great sound design work in the film, but also how integral sound is in horror cinema.

Sandown an opportunity
With the average age of farmers at 56 years, we need more farmers and we have to find creative ways to give young farmers access to land
Dec. 27, 2013 5:00 p.m.
Re: Don't compete with farms, PNR Dec. 13. Most of the farmers and market gardeners I have spoken with are in favour of the Sandown proposal and I, as a market gardener, am one of them.
The letter-writer states "In my view, we simply do not need a community farm. We have enough farm land." I wonder what his criteria is? The 2006 Ministry of Agriculture report B.C.'s Food Self-Reliance – Can B.C.'s Farmers Feed a Growing Population? indicates that one acre is needed to provide food for one person for one year. North Saanich has 1,226 hectares being farmed. That means we are only farming enough land to feed 2,339 people. If you include Sidney, which has no farmland, then we are farming enough land to feed only 11 per cent of the population of the two municipalities. That's not including the larger community that the letter-writer wants to add.
The Ministry of Agriculture report adds "to maintain the [2005] levels of self-reliance [at 48 per cent] through to the year 2025, farmers will need to increase production by 30 per cent over 2001 levels. The increased production will be concentrated on the land that has access to irrigation – land that is typically near the urban centers."
Food security is one of the most fundamental responsibilities of government. When the Sandown proposal first came to light, many young farmers came to North Saanich council indicating a desire to lease the land, saying they could not afford to buy farmland here.
With the average age of farmers at 56 years, we definitely need more farmers and we have to find creative ways to give young farmers access to land. The Sandown proposal provides that opportunity.

Blames "unprecedented rush for subscriptions"
A lot was riding on the successful premiere of Game of Thrones' much-anticipated seventh season, with the episode giving the newly-launched streaming service Foxtel Now its biggest test to date. The service even launched its PS4 app just in time for Jon Snow and Co. to return to our screens.
Unfortunately, the pressure was too much for the service to handle, with the Foxtel Now system crashing under the weight of an "unprecedented rush for a subscription just prior to the telecast," as explained by Foxtel's official statement on the matter (subscriptions saw a 40% rise in the 48 hours prior to last night's screening). Foxtel's Identity Management System, which usually handles around 5,000 customer processes a day was hit especially hard, with 70,000 transactions in the space of a few hours.
"We are committed to resolving the technical faults immediately and together with our broadcast partners around the world, we are giving this the same degree of priority."
The fault doesn't lie entirely on Foxtel though, with HBO's own technical systems failing to deliver content in a number locations around the globe. As HBO is reportedly unwilling to give its content partners access to its shows before they've premiered globally, Game of Thrones must be streamed centrally from the US HBO servers.
This, combined with the sudden rush of new Foxtel Now signups, caused the whole system to crash. Still, given that the crash only occurred several hours after the show's 11.00am AEST airing in Australia, we would've expected the episode to have been placed on Foxtel's local servers, ready for the primetime rush at 6-7pm.
While this premiere was undoubtedly a huge strain on Foxtel Now's system, the service really should have expected the extra attention and prepared itself accordingly.
As a service, Foxtel Now wants to be seen as a deterrent to piracy, especially when it comes to the HBO content its pays handsomely for. But Foxtel clearly needs to do a lot better if it truly wants to convert the pirates. We'll be eagerly anticipating seeing whether the service can stand up to the strain with future episodes — and a failure to deliver will undoubtedly push many Australian Game of Thrones fans back towards the pirate option.

Martin's U.S. speech draws fire
Liberals backpedal on PM's message
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/ArticleNews/TPStory/LAC/20051008/OIL08/TPNational/Canada
By MICHAEL DEN TANDT
Saturday, October 8, 2005 Page A4
OTTAWA -- A day after Prime Minister Paul Martin explicitly linked the softwood lumber dispute with U.S. access to Canadian energy, two Liberal cabinet ministers insisted he hadn't and the opposition parties decried the move as a political stunt.
In a speech in New York Wednesday night and in an interview on CNN, Mr. Martin warned Americans that their government's refusal to accept a NAFTA panel's ruling in Canada's favour on softwood could jeopardize energy flows.
"Yes, I did a tough speech," Mr. Martin told reporters yesterday in Montreal. "But it had to be said, it had to be done. We [and the United States] are close friends and you've got to be able to tell your close friends the truth."
The extent to which Mr. Martin's government is treading a delicate line became immediately apparent in Question Period. In response to a question from B.C. New Democrat Libby Davies, Finance Minister Ralph Goodale denied any linkage had been made.
"The Prime Minister did not make a linkage between softwood and energy, but he did make the point that NAFTA itself is drawn into question when NAFTA's rules are obviously ignored," Mr. Goodale said. Revenue Minister John McCallum said virtually the same thing in an interview outside the House of Commons.
Elsewhere, the speech was broadly interpreted as constituting both linkage and a threat. Reaction from business leaders was swift and negative.
"It's nonsensical," said Jack Mintz, head of the right-leaning C. D. Howe Institute. "It's right for Canada in its own interest to maximize the price at which we can sell our energy. But to settle the softwood lumber dispute, does that mean we undersell energy products?"
Anne Golden, president of the Conference Board of Canada, was equally dismissive. "The bottom line is a trade war would hurt both partners, but we're the smaller contender and we would be the biggest loser," she said. "We need NAFTA, we've done very well under NAFTA. It's not in Canada's interest to abandon it."
Experts on North American trade said Mr. Martin's speech should be viewed as an attention-getter only, because the North American free-trade agreement explicitly guarantees free trade in energy, and particularly in times of shortage.
"In many ways you could argue that [Mr. Martin's speech] is exactly the opposite of the one portion of the trade agreement that deals with energy," said Robert Pastor, director of the Center for North American Studies at American University in Washington. "Instead of opening up at a moment of global energy shortage, Canada is threatening to restrict access."
John Manley, who headed the Canada-U.S. file during his time as deputy prime minister in Jean Chrétien's government, strongly supported the Prime Minister's New York foray.
"I think we needed to get the attention of the U.S. government at the highest levels, to the degree of frustration that exists in Canada about this," Mr. Manley said, "and that many of us who believe that improved relations are important, can't stand by and say this doesn't matter, because it does."
NAFTA's highest panel ruled in August that imposing tariffs on Canadian lumber violates U.S. trade law. Under the treaty, the panel is intended to be the arbiter of last resort in any dispute. The United States has said it will ignore the ruling, and points to a more recent World Trade Organization ruling in its favour.
The Opposition sent mixed messages. Conservative Leader Stephen Harper called Mr. Martin's speech a "watered-down" version of one Mr. Harper gave in Halifax a month ago. In that talk, Mr. Harper raised questions about the future of NAFTA, deviating from traditional Conservative policy.
Peter MacKay, Mr. Harper's deputy, decried the linkage of softwood and energy yesterday as "a very dangerous thing to do." Mr. MacKay urged the government to "get back to diplomacy at the highest levels."

World literature is a way of communicating and preserving important details of culture, traditions and attitudes. Literature is comprised of language, and language is a form of communication.
The act of writing is also an act of communication. Language is not fixed. Its meaning changes based on how members of respective cultures interpret it, and this meaning also shifts over time. World literature is a way of collecting those ideas in a way that reflects a specific group of people at a certain time in history.
Since literature is reflective of predominant political and philosophical principles of the time in which it is written, world literature is also a historical reflection of the evolution of world culture. It is a snapshot of a region within a given time. This knowledge is not only used by societies to improve their dialogues with each other but also to understand the struggles and priorities of those who are different and how those struggles affect others.
World literature is sometimes presented as a statement of demands or as a critique of a society. In such cases, authors attempt to call for change by reaching widespread numbers of people and by using language to persuade them to join a cause.
