TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Sept. 27, 2007) - The Certified General Accountants of Ontario is pleased to announce its new sponsorship of the International Readings at Harbourfront program, which includes the world-renowned International Festival of Authors, scheduled from October 17 to 27, 2007.
"At first glance this might seem an unusual sponsorship choice," indicates Delmarie Scherloski, director of public affairs for CGA Ontario. "However, as an organization we're often innovators and trailblazers, including doing our part to break the stereotype of accountants as 'bean counters,' through such initiatives as our popular advertising campaigns.
"CGA Ontario and CGAs understand the importance of effective communications, a key competency for success in business," Scherloski continues. "We're pleased to have this opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to the communication of ideas and vision, through sponsorship of this prestigious festival and year-round program."
This year marks the 50th anniversary (http://anniversary.cga-ontario.org/) of the Certified General Accountants of Ontario, as well as the 28th edition of the International Festival of Authors (http://www.readings.org/). This celebrated event, which supports presentations by internationally based, multicultural authors, is also reflective of CGA Ontario's own diverse membership, with CGAs found in every region and every sector of the province.
The Certified General Accountants of Ontario is a self-governing body, which grants the exclusive right to the CGA designation, and controls the professional standards, conduct and discipline of its members and students in the province of Ontario. Broadly and deeply competent, certified general accountants (CGAs) are committed to meeting the needs of their businesses and organizations with strategic insight, leadership and demonstrated know-how. There are 18,000 CGAs and approximately 9,000 students working towards achieving the CGA designation in Ontario.

Q: How to cancel an awaiting task? I am trying to cancel a task awaiting for network IO using CancellationTokenSource, but I have to wait until TcpClient connects:
try
{
    while (true)
    {
        token.Token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
        Thread.Sleep(int.MaxValue); //simulating a TcpListener waiting for request
    }
}

Any ideas?
Secondly, is it OK to start each client in a separate task?

A: When you start the task you can use an overload of the StartNew to pass a cancellation token that your task will check for cancellations.
Alternatively you could just use AcceptAsync and continue doing other work. AcceptAsync will call the OnCompleted method attached via the SocketAsyncEventArgs param you define.
internal class Program
{
    private static EventWaitHandle _signalFromClient;
    private static readonly string NameThatClientKnows = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
    private static readonly CancellationTokenSource CancellationTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();

    private const int PingSendTimeout = 30000;
    private static Socket _connectedClientSocket;
    private static Socket _tcpServer;

    private static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        _signalFromClient = new EventWaitHandle(false, EventResetMode.AutoReset, NameThatClientKnows);

        _tcpServer = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);
        _tcpServer.Bind(new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Loopback, 0));
        _tcpServer.Listen(1);

        var asyncOpInfo = new SocketAsyncEventArgs();
        asyncOpInfo.Completed += CompletedConnectRequest;
        _tcpServer.AcceptAsync(asyncOpInfo);

        Console.WriteLine("Console stays open, connecting client will say something.");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }

    private static void CompletedConnectRequest(object sender, SocketAsyncEventArgs e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Client connected");

        _connectedClientSocket = e.AcceptSocket;

        Task.Factory.StartNew(SendSimpleMessage, CancellationTokenSource.Token);
    }

    private static void SendSimpleMessage()
    {
        while (!CancellationTokenSource.Token.IsCancellationRequested && _connectedClientSocket.Connected)
        {
            try
            {
                _connectedClientSocket.Send(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("PING"));
                _signalFromClient.WaitOne(PingSendTimeout);
            }
            catch (SocketException) { Dispose(); }
        }
    }

    private static void Dispose()
    {
        CancellationTokenSource.Cancel();

        _connectedClientSocket.Close();
        _tcpServer.Close();
    }
}

Of course setup the SocketAsyncEventArgs with a buffer and other necessary items/behaviour.
In Dispose(), I cancel the task and catch any SocketExceptions that may be thrown by calling Socket.Close on both client and server ø_Ø.

A: I used the CancellationToken handle instead of creating a new one, it makes the code more simple
var task = Listener.AcceptTcpClientAsync();
task.Wait(MainToken.Token);
MainToken.Token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();

On June 21 2014, a street of independent shops in Manchester took part in a social experiment to go cashless for 24 hours.
The experiment was to test consumer and business reaction to the point in the not too distant future when paper money becomes redundant.
The story about Beech Road becoming the UK's first cashless street became a national talking point, with Sky News reporting from the road all day and national and regional press picking up on the story, such as The Guardian, The Sunday Times and Manchester Evening News. The debate continued on the airwaves as Radio 4's You and Yours reported the activity and there were discussions on BBC Radio Ulster and BBC Radio Manchester.
On a gorgeous summer Saturday, the road was packed with shoppers well into the evening and the retailers that line the road reported brisk business – with card payments being top of the agenda.
Shoppers on the street on cashless day were quizzed about their changing spending habits. The results were illuminating.
Mark Latham, product and innovation director of Handepay, says: "We never expected that we would discover we're ready to give up cash just yet, but we're delighted so many independent businesses took the opportunity to engage their customers about how they like to spend.
The experiment is the idea of card payment provider Handepay, which supplies more than 26,000 businesses across the country with card payment terminals.
Handepay believe that the fortune of many independent stores could be transformed if they listened to their customers and offered alternative ways to pay.

BYU unveils all black uniforms for Notre Dame game
We're only at Monday but the competition between Notre Dame and BYU has already gotten underway.
Sure, it's a college football Cold War for now as it's being done through uniforms and social media videos,
but BYU got in on the fun Monday when it released its uniforms for Saturday's Shamrock Series game.
As you remember, Notre Dame put together what was pretty much
a short movie when it unveiled its special uniforms for the game during the summer.
Watch below as the Cougars used a bit of magic to unveil them.
Now BYU has joined the fun by playing into the Las Vegas scene to show off its alternate uniforms to be used for the night.
I'm a fan of BYU's royal blue look, moreso than I am the all black, but there is no denying the helmet looks outstanding.
Should be a fun one to come Saturday as we'll have plenty of preview and information leading up to the game.
Notre Dame back in top 20 of Josh Pate's power ratings

I am fascinated by birds. They comprise a spectacularly diverse group of animals, from hummingbirds to ostriches, woodpeckers to ducks, and penguins to warblers. Fossil evidence demonstrates that birds are the living descendants of dinosaurs.
Birds are the most mobile creatures in the Animal Kingdom. The world speed record is held by the Peregrine Falcon, which can stoop at more than 200 mph. Arctic Terns breed within the Arctic Circle, but fly to the Antarctic for winter, a yearly round trip of over 24,000 miles. A Bar-tailed Godwit, a kind of shorebird, recently was tracked as it flew from Alaska to New Zealand, an 8-day, 7,270-mile nonstop journey over open water, and they can't swim! Even an unexceptional sparrow can fly continuously at about 30 mph for a couple of days, covering more than 1000 miles.
Birds see in color and they also have the most complex vocalizations; they use both these attributes in an extraordinary repertoire of individual and social behaviors. I am especially interested in the behavior of birds of prey. Unlike their vegetarian relatives, predatory birds make a living by capturing meals that do their very best to escape. Thus, raptors represent a highly specialized group of animals that are very good at what they do.
Most of my research has focused on the American Kestrel, the smallest and most widespread falcon in the Western Hemisphere. I am interested in all aspects of its behavior and ecology. They live in open habitats, such as meadows and pastures, and they nest in cavities excavated by other species. Since 1990 I have been studying populations of kestrels that breed in nest boxes I erected in New Jersey and Florida.

#PremRatanDhanPayo is nearing Rs 200 cr [Week 2] Fri 5.50 cr, Sat 6.70 cr, Sun 8.20 cr. Total: Rs 193.22 cr. Hindi version. India biz.
Salman, pushing 50, the only actor to have made Bollywood this much money, some 150 crores more than any other actor has managed in recent years. This includes Aamir Khan, who makes just one film a year (sometimes not even that) and whose PK made almost Rs 338 crores at the domestic box office in 2014. Until now, Aamir led Salman, who made about Rs 335 in 2012 with Ek Tha Tiger and Dabangg 2; Rs 320 crores in 2014 with Kick and Jai Ho; and Rs 264 crores in 2011 with Bodyguard and Ready. Shah Rukh Khan's best numbers so far have been Rs 207 crores for Chennai Express in 2013, which was the year's biggest film after Aamir's Dhoom: 3 which made Rs 260 crores.
This year, Salman has ruled the box office in the absence of an Aamir Khan film. Shah Rukh Khan's Dilwale, his only film of the three he's made to be releasing in 2014, is scheduled for mid-December. Akshay Kumar has so far been Salman's only competition with three films - Baby, Gabbar Is Back and Brothers - making a sum total of about Rs 237 crores, a figure far outstripped by Salman's.
2016 will be an exciting year of the box office calculus - Salman and Aamir both have a film apiece releasing with Sultan and Dangal, and SRK has two - Fan and Raees.

MassDOT: Investing in Sustainable Communities
/ MBTA /
MassDOT Secretary and CEO Richard A. Davey and MBTA General Manager Dr. Beverly Scott opened this week's 10th Annual Sustainability and Public Transportation Workshop sponsored by the American Public Transit Association (APTA) in Boston.
Secretary Davey listed the imperatives for focusing on sustainable transportation in Massachusetts, including owning and operating the oldest transit system in the nation (born in 1897); the need to keep the Commonwealth, its people and businesses moving; and the generational responsibility that Governor Deval Patrick often describes – to leave behind a better place than the one we have found.
Dr. Scott stressed the difference that sustainable transportation can make for people and their communities. Transit projects catalyze private sector development and help build the future. Every dollar invested in transit has a multiplier effect. In the case of the Green Line Extension (GLX), for example, a new program will identify and train workers for careers in transportation through partnerships with existing technical schools, industry training programs and community organizations. The Massachusetts Workforce Initiative Now – WIN – is sponsored by the cities of Cambridge, Somerville and Medford; project contractor White, Skanska & Kiewit; Bunker Hill Community College; and several community groups. The goal of the program is to produce the next generation of workers and leaders to keep Massachusetts moving. "We're building a future," said Dr. Scott, "for our system and our people."
Sustainability also means investing in new plans, technologies and operating strategies. Andrew Brennan, the MBTA's Director of Energy and Environment, highlighted the MBTA's extension of the Green Line. As a transit project, GLX is inherently sustainable. Using MassDOT's GreenDOT framework, GLX addresses seven key sustainability themes: air; energy; land; materials; planning, policy and design; waste and water. Brief examples include providing more "parking" for bicycles than cars; incorporating natural vegetation and green and blue roofs in the design; repurposing materials on-site; and planning for climate change and resilience. The Community Path will link GLX riders to stations, schools, community centers and house of worship.
Perhaps most significantly, the GLX will serve neighborhoods that are among the densest in the nation. With 44% of future riders living in non-auto households, extending the Green Line will make a tremendous daily difference. Travel time to jobs, school and medical appointments will be reduced substantially. When the GLX is fully operational, 71% of the households in the City of Somerville will be within a half mile of a station.
Making transit work helps communities to live and thrive – in the long run, letting people stay in their homes, walk and bicycle, travel to school and work, and age in place.
APTA recognized the MBTA for its outstanding sustainability achievements with a Gold level of certification shortly after this presentation. For more information, visit the Green Line Extension website.
One thought on "MassDOT: Investing in Sustainable Communities"
Kevin C says:
MBTA is not the oldest transit system, only the oldest *subway* in the USA. SEPTA Route 15 started as a horse-drawn line in 1859 and was electrified in 1895. Richmond had the first electric streetcar in 1888. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_streetcar_systems_in_the_United_States#Pennsylvania

The open source firmware for the open the null can be downloaded fromgithub. It has recently undergone a series of improvements with lots of new exciting features (more about that in a later blog post).
Most Arduino boards can be used as an ISP programmer by using the ArduinoISP sketch. If you already own an Arduino board, this is probably the easiest way, but it requires some wiring.
This is Atmels own programmer. It is relatively affordable and can be purchased from Mouser, Digikey or similar shops.
This is Adafruit's low-cost programmer. It is quite a bit slower than the AVR ISP mkii, but works just as well as a programmer for the ATMega328P chip on the null.
The VFD Modular Clock firmware is written for avr-gcc. The installation procedure differs depending on your OS.
The latest source code ison github.
Click the ZIP button to download.
The user.mk file is used by the makefile in the VFD Modular Clock firmware to read information about your programmer.
Code block with id '27' not found.
This will compile the source code and flash it to the microcontroller. Once it is finished, the device will reboot and you will have the latest firmware!
The TWI/I2C slave firmware in null, null and null can also be updated with an ISP programmer.
Note that null and null both ship with an Arduino bootloader and are programmed in the Arduino environment using an FTDI adapter instead of an ISP programmer.

Renault set for makeover as a leaner carmaker under De Meo

PARIS: French carmaker Renault's new Chief Executive Luca de Meo is set for his first major test on Thursday (Jan 13) with a strategy reset aimed at lifting margins at the loss-making firm, and which is likely to focus on fewer, more profitable models.
The update for analysts and investors is the first glimpse of De Meo's full vision for Renault after taking the reins last July, in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic, following a stint running Volkswagen's Seat brand.
Four years after former boss-turned-fugitive Carlos Ghosn unveiled his bombastic view for Renault, based on expanding car volumes globally, De Meo has already signalled a change of tack.
The group is likely to exit some unprofitable countries or markets, and has yet to reveal the line-up of cars it wants to entice customers with over the next three to eight years.
The French carmaker, which was struggling with waning sales even before the COVID-19 crisis and has been trying to get a partnership with Japan's Nissan back on track, is already counting on cost cuts to reboot the business.
Renault is expected to put the onus on electric vehicles, sources close to the matter said - including at some of its brands like sportscar maker Alpine, and by reviving some of its now extinct hit models from the 1960s to 1990s.

Citizenship Tangle
West Bengal bye-elections: BJP candidate in Kaliaganj blames NRC for defeat
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said the saffron party's 'insolence and arrogance' led to its defeats in the three Assembly seats that went to the polls.

As the Trinamool Congress swept the bye-elections in West Bengal, a Bharatiya Janata Party candidate said confusion about the proposed implementation of the National Register of Citizens in the state cost the party the seats, PTI reported.
"We have lost despite having a massive lead in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls," said Kamal Chandra Sarkar, the BJP candidate in Kaliaganj in Uttar Dinajpur district. "We lost as there has been serious confusion over implementation of NRC in Bengal. People didn't accept this narrative over NRC and we too failed to reach out to the masses on this issue. There has to be introspection."
Sarkar lost to Trinamool Congress's Tapan Deb Singha by 2,414 votes, while the saffron party lost Kharagpur Sadar constituency in Paschim Medinipur district by 20,853 votes. The margin in Karimpur seat in Nadia district was 23,910 votes. In the Lok Sabha elections, the saffron party had been ahead by 45,132 votes in Kharagpur. It also had a massive lead in Kaliaganj, which falls under Raiganj constituency. BJP MP Debasree Chaudhuri's lead in the Assembly segment was 56,762 votes.
However, state BJP chief Dilip Ghosh dismissed concerns about the effect of the National Register of Citizens that Union Home Minister Amit Shah has promised to conduct across India. Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb also talked about NRC while campaigning in Uttar Dinajpur.
"We need to look into the results," said Ghosh. "But we don't think it will have any bearing on the growth of BJP in Bengal. Actually during bye-polls, it is a general trend that those who are in the government win it."
The Trinamool Congress also attributed the BJP's losses to the National Register of Citizens. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee called it a "victory of development" and voters' rejection of the saffron party. She claimed her party's victories were in favour of secularism and unity, and a "mandate against NRC".
"Their insolence and arrogance were not accepted by the electorate," Anandabazar Patrika quoted Banerjee as saying. "They are doing whatever pleases them in every other state. They are sometimes campaigning about NRC while at other times it is something else. People elect MPs and MLAs, and the BJP is demanding proof of citizenship from them."
The Trinamool Congress chief pointed out that the party had never been able to win Kaliaganj and Kharagpur since its formation in 1998. "This time the people have blessed us," Banerjee said. "These are people's victory. That is why we are dedicating these victories to them. There can be nothing bigger than people's mandate. We won because every member of the party worked hard."

Turkish Music is such a rich world with many different types from all different regions. From oriental beats, to classical tunes, from tangos to folk music there is so much to hear, sing and dance along to. Turkey also features many international music and dance festivals so you can also enjoy world music during your stay in many clubs, music halls and significant concert venues such as palaces and churches.


December, 19th, 2003, Phoenix, Arizona, USA : A female inmate holds a flower in Estrella Jail. Estrella Jail is home to the male and America's only female chain gang. Inmates stay in there tiny 8x12 foot cells 23 hours of the day during " lock down," unless they are out on assigned chain gang duty, for which they can volunteer. There is no television or organized recreation provided. Inmates must memorize 10 rules of conduct, addressing grooming, behaviour and attitude. Chain Gang and other privileged duties can be suspended for infractions such as swearing. Sheriff Joe Arpaio has instituted the chain gang as a way of rehabilitating the inmates through hard work, while providing financial restitution to the community. He also has cut costs to taxpayers dramatically by streamlining meals ( no coffee, lowering daily caloric allowance from 3000 to 2500, serving only very basic food) and lodging, ( in addition to the Estrella block and others like it, there is " Tent City, " where inmates are housed in surplus army tents set up out in the desert ). Despite the savings, Maricopa County has incurred legal costs defending Tent City and the chain gangs from critics ( including Amnesty International ) and a law suit following the death of an inmate during a struggle with guards. Joe Arpaio is known as " Americas Toughest Sheriff."

A colorful street mural at the garden's entrance has contributed to the increase in visitors. Georgeta Fondos, a Coral Springs artist, recently painted the scene of daisies and sunflowers at West 10th Street and Avenue K. A sewer lid, painted yellow, doubles as the center of a large daisy.
