Periscope 2022: Wait for a Miracle in Semester 2, Music Concert Like Clouds Without Udan : Okezone Celebrity
January 4, 2022 by Sally Scully
JAKARTAThe coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic has had a major impact on the music industry. The reason is, music concerts which are usually held in person must become virtual.
This situation has been going on for almost two years. Then how about this year? the following is the fate of music concerts this year according to the eyes of the promoter as summarized: Okayzone in Periscope2022:
– Erika Carlina Dissatisfied with Gaga Muhammad Charged with 4.5 Years in Prison: Not Equal
– Roy Kiyoshi's prediction for 2022 The Covid-19 pandemic is over but there will be a big disaster, be careful!
Like Clouds Without Rain
The CEO of Rajawali Indonesia Communications and the Founder of Prambanan Jazz, Anas Syahrul Alimi likens the fate of this year's music concert to a song by Denny Caknan feat, Ndarboy Genk, Cloudy with no rain. The reason is, he admits that he can only wait for definite regulations regarding the implementation of large-scale concerts in the country.
Not to mention, the possibility of a spike in Covid-19 cases after the 2021 Christmas and 2022 New Year holidays.
"It's like, if people dry clothes, aren't they dry, they're not wet, but they smell musty. That's the analogy now, we just have to wait. Whether it's raining to bring blessings or cloudy, just waiting there is no blessing," said Anas to Okayzone, Tuesday (4/1/2022).
"If I'm not mistaken yesterday (regulation) was waiting for the Christmas and New Year (Nataru) holidays. From this Nataru holiday, what kind of movement will there be, wait until February, whether there is a significant increase in February or not, so it depends. We are still worried," he continued.
A glimmer of hope in the second semester of 2022
Nevertheless, Anas revealed that he has the view that large-scale music concerts will begin to be realized in the second half of this year. Given the current vaccination program is also quite evenly distributed. However, of course with strict health restrictions and protocols.
"It should have started in the second semester, if I think it's okay. Even though it's not like 2019, it's still limited by strict health protocols. That's in my view," said Anas again.
Virtual Concert Not Promising Business
Anas also admitted that he had high hopes regarding the organization of a music concert in the second half of this year. Moreover, according to him, virtual concerts do not promise big business compared to concerts live.
Of course, the DNA of music concerts is to come directly to the location, where the audience can experience the euphoria of the concert and meet the musicians directly.
"Virtuality is only a condition, because there is no business and tends to lose money for now, for concerts," he said.
So once again, Anas is waiting for the exact regulations for holding concerts this year. Moreover, according to him, online concerts cannot be carried out continuously for business continuity in the music industry.
However, even if it can only wait. Anas also admitted that he had to rack his brains to make alternatives. He even built a cafe to keep the ecosystem running.
"I made the Prambanan Jazz Cafe, there is a small amplifier and a capacity of about 200 people, there are small gigs there, but also there is no big business, the important thing is that the ecosystem continues to run," he said.
Fair Regulation
Finally, Anas certainly hopes that the pandemic will end soon, at least there will be no increase in Covid-19 cases. So, music concerts can be held in stages, of course, with strict health protocols.
In addition, he also hopes that the government will provide definite regulations regarding concerts. Given the current situation, many things are uncertain and rapidly changing.
"Hopefully the government will definitely provide clear enough policy regulations. So there's no doubt, it's okay to do it, or no, it's not. There must be clear and fair regulations, don't let events carried out by the Government, Regional Government, and Provincial Government be allowed, but private no, it must be clear and clear," he said.
The government through the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy (Kemenparekraf) is known to have started to grant permits related to organizing music exhibitions and concerts. However, a number of regulations and technicalities for organizing music concerts that have been permitted to be handed over to local governments.
This is because each region has a different level of social restrictions. This means that not all regions in Indonesia can hold music concerts.
"This will still be revealed in regional regulations because basically every live performance or stage is held by the regional government," said Expert Staff for Bureaucratic Reform and Regulation of the Ministry of Creative Economy, Ari Juliano Gema in September 2021.
In Jakarta, for example, the DKI Jakarta provincial government is still evaluating the trial of opening concerts at PPKM Level 1. They also have to regulate the capacity, the size of the concert arena, distance arrangements and health protocols.
"So this needs evaluation, sufficient discussion, so be patient," said Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta, Ahmad Riza Patria, in November 2021.

Don't blame housing — this time the home market hopes to escape the worst of the economic downturn
Homebuilders are bracing for a slowdown but hoping for a quick rebound.
Homebuilders are in better shape than before the last recession but still face challenges.(Ron Baselice / Staff Photographer)
By Steve Brown
6:00 AM on Mar 24, 2020 CDT
With the economy slamming on the brakes, homebuilders are potentially facing the greatest falloff in business in a decade.
That's a big concern in North Texas, which leads the country in single-family home construction and sales.
"As you would expect, there has been a slowdown in the traffic counts of prospective buyers," said Ted Wilson, principal with Dallas-based housing analyst Residential Strategies. "While there have been some sales cancellations due to job loss and economic and stock market concerns, they have been minimal thus far."
Wilson said the local builders he's talked with said last week's new home sales were "still fairly decent," with some buyers still hoping to take advantage of low mortgage rates.
Demand for moderate-priced homes is still good, Wilson said. Still, he said, some firms are positioning for any potential slowdown.
"Many have pushed the pause button with regard to new acquisition due to the uncertainty of the entitlement process within the municipalities [permitting and zoning] as well as the uncertainty of the duration of this disruption," Wilson said. "While Wall Street has punished the stock prices of many of the public builders, the industry is much healthier from a debt to equity standpoint than it was going into the Great Recession of 2008 and 2009.
"Many of the large builders I have spoken to are being careful with their cash and want to be opportunistic if there is future fallout."
Many metro areas, including Dallas County, have exempted homebuilders from business shutdowns.
"Residential construction is being deemed essential in many markets," said Robert Dietz, chief economist with the National Association of Home Builders. "This is particularly important as repair and new building needs to continue."
With the growing likelihood of a recession, Dietz said the U.S. housing market is in a better position than it was entering the last downturn just over a decade ago.
"The housing sector enters this recession underbuilt rather than overbuilt," he said. "That means as the economy rebounds — which it will at some stage — housing is set to help lead the way out.
"In the medium term, builder balance sheets were in much better position coming into 2020, compared to 2008, so the concern now is liquidity and payroll," he said. "Housing is approximately 15% of GDP, and in most locations of the U.S., that share will be even more important over the next quarter or two given the ongoing cessation of economic activity in other sectors."
Builders in North Texas and across the country entered 2020 with upbeat attitudes, encouraged by low mortgage rates and record low unemployment.
That outlook has dramatically changed with the pandemic and the expected spike in job losses and wage reductions.
The last recession was triggered by loose lending and speculation in the home market, but housing is now on stronger footing.
Ali Wolf, chief economist with Meyers Research, thinks the housing market can quickly bounce back as the impact from the pandemic fades.
"Last time housing led the recession," Wolf said. "This time it's poised to bring us out.
"This is the Great Recession for leisure, hospitality, trade and transportation in that this recession will feel as bad as the Great Recession did to housing," she said. "The good news for the housing market through all of this is that the industry is caught in the crossfire versus actually causing the slowdown."

Champions League: Is it time to sympathize with PSG's Neymar?
The memes of Neymar ...
Posted: Nov 8, 2018 12:13 PM
Updated: Nov 8, 2018 12:13 PM
The memes of Neymar rolling in agony along high streets and motorways remain one of the enduring memories of a thrilling World Cup in Russia.
Spectacular goals and knee-knocking finishes admittedly made the footballing world smile during the summer, but so too did the #neymarchallenge on social media as fans, multinationals and even Portugal's 911 service mocked the Brazilian superstar's theatrics on the pitch.
Sports figures
Sports organizations and teams
According to Swiss broadcaster RTS, the world's most expensive player spent 14 minutes on the floor during football's most celebrated tournament. Many of those minutes would have been spent rolling around in apparent agony before getting back on his feet again to continue with the dribbles, flicks and no-look passes.
But is Neymar more sinned against than sinning? Should the Paris Saint-Germain forward receive more protection from referees and less ridicule from the masses?
According to beIN Sports data, during the opening rounds of this season's Champions League, the forward has been awarded 20 fouls -- 14 more than his teenage teammate Kylian Mbappe, who is equally adept at bamboozling defenders with trickery and pace, and 16 more than Liverpool's Mo Salah over the same number of games.
READ: Neymar -- ridiculed for his theatrics
Barcelona's Lionel Messi, who has played just twice in the Champions League this season, has won four fouls while Juventus' Cristiano Ronaldo has won seven over three games.
If all players are treated equally, it is a striking statistic that Neymar has won considerably more fouls in Europe's elite competition than the world's other best forwards.
Bought by the French champions in 2017 for $263 million, Neymar cut a frustrated figure in Italy Tuesday as Napoli fought back to draw 1-1 against a PSG side third in a group that also includes last season's finalist Liverpool. There is still much to do if the Parisians are to progress to the knockout stages.
Undoubtedly, a man of Neymar's talents, a player who can change a game with a moment of brilliance, is a marked man.
It would be foolish for defenses to leave such a player to roam unattended. A sumptuous pass over Napoli's defense to Mbappe early in first half at the Stadio San Paolo illustrated the danger Neymar's creativity alone poses to opponents. He is also lethal in front of goal, scoring three in the opening four group games.
Napoli wisely, though Neymar himself would probably say unfairly, paid close attention to the 26-year-old. Towards the end of the match, Neymar -- booked in stoppage time for dissent -- could be seen shouting at referee Bjorn Kuipers and appeared to be held back by Mbappe after taking issue with one of the referee's decisions.
The Brazilian would later accuse the Dutchman of saying something "disrespectful" to him during the match. "On the pitch, we are asked to show respect towards the referees. We should get the same in return," he told reporters afterwards.
There were those on social media who sympathized with the Brazilian. "He often frustrates me by going down too easy (imo) -- but you can see why he does on a night like this when he tries to stay on his feet and gets absolutely nothing," tweeted journalist Robin Bairner.
In another tweet, Barnier said: "Frustrating night for #Neymar. He's been on the end of numerous niggling fouls, several not given, and yet he's been booked for dissent."
Perhaps some of Neymar's problems are of his own making. Against Switzerland at the World Cup, he was fouled 10 times -- the most by one player in a game since Alan Shearer in 1998 -- but his response to such tactics was to fall, many would say, too easily to the ground.
Such actions have consequences, and shapes a player's reputation.
"Did you watch the World Cup?" USA defender Deandre Yedlin apparently told a referee after Neymar fell following a tackle from the American during a recent international match.

But perhaps the time has come to empathize with the Brazilian, an artist having to deal with snarling opponents attempting to stop him from lighting up a pitch with his brushstrokes.

CUPERTINO, CA – A fractious annual general meeting of the tech giant Apple Inc. nearly ended in what one corporate insider called "potential disaster". After a fierce debate, the shareholders voted today to reject a proposal to change the name of the iconic forty-year-old corporation to Orange Inc. The no vote was carried by a narrow margin of one percent.
Apple, with worldwide sales of $229 billion, has been consistently ranked as the most valuable brand on the globe, so the proposal to change the name pitted traditionalists against new age thinking.
Holstead, who called himself an "activist", a "foodie" and an "advocate for oranges everywhere" said that he owns ten shares of stock in Apple Inc. His impassioned speech caught the attention of another like-minded shareholder at the meeting. James Archer from Tampa, Florida, who owns thirty shares of Apple stock, seized upon the idea and threw his full support behind it.
As the news of the debate over the name spread to the public before the vote, the stock price of Apple Inc. dipped sharply and temporarily wiped billions of dollars of investment capital off the NASDAQ.
The financial media have termed the controversy: FruitGate. The market has now recovered, but uncertainty lingers about the future.
Holstead and Archer were unrepentant about the Apple contretemps. They have formed an organization they are calling Change-for-the-sake-of-Change, and are signing up names for their cause.


Restaurants have unique income tax deductions.
Like any other business, restaurants can deduct legitimate business expenses against the revenues they take in. Restaurants, however, have some unique expenses that they can deduct against their taxable income. These deductions include food costs, server and kitchen labor, operating and advertising expenses, and capital expenses. The Internal Revenue Service sets rules for how each of these types of expenses must be treated on the tax return.
One of the largest expenses in a restaurant, next to labor, is food. Food costs can account for up to 35 percent of the total expenses in the business. These costs include the costs of the raw ingredients, any pre-packaged or canned food purchased, and the indirect food costs, such as spices or oil for frying. The cost of food in a restaurant also includes the cost of spoiled or stale ingredients that are thrown out before they cannot be used in the cooking or serving process. Restaurants are allowed to deduct for tax purposes food costs as they are incurred rather than having to inventory what is left over at the end of the tax year.
A significant cost in a restaurant is the cost of providing the food to customers. This includes cooks, managers, bartenders, dishwashers and servers. The cost of the human component of running a restaurant includes gross wages, any benefits offered and payroll taxes the employer pays. The profit that goes to the owners of the restaurant are not included in the labor deduction.
The day-to-day costs of running a restaurant can also be deducted against revenues. Advertising expenses in a restaurant are often high and include directory advertising, coupons, flyers and newspaper advertisements. Other operating costs include rent, utilities, office supplies, menus, restaurant decor and linen services. Any expense that is directly related to the restaurant is deductible from taxes in some fashion. The cost of providing meals on the premises to employees is also deductible to the restaurant and not taxable to the employee. Sometimes, this cost is simply included in the cost of food, but some restaurants track this cost separately.
Capital expenses in a restaurant include kitchen equipment, tables and chairs, significant improvements to the premises and vehicles owned by the business. Capital expenses have a useful life of more than just the current year, and they must be set up as assets of the business rather than written off completely in the year of purchase. The IRS sets rules for how much of each class of assets can be depreciated, or expensed, each year.

IBM launches open tech to speed response to cyber threats across clouds
By PTI | Nov 20, 2019, 02.33 PM IST
The platform is extensible, so that additional tools and applications can be added over time, the statement said.
Bengaluru: Technology giant IBM on Wednesday launched 'Cloud Pak for Security', featuring innovations to connect with any security tool, cloud or on-premise system, without moving data from its original source.
The platform includes open-source technology for hunting threats, automation capabilities to help speed response to cyberattacks, and the ability to run in any environment, the company said in a statement.
It is the first platform to leverage new open-source technology pioneered by IBM, which can search and translate security data from a variety of sources, bringing together critical security insights from across a company's multicloud IT environment, the company claimed.
As businesses move further into cloud maturity, applications and data are frequently spread across multiple private and public clouds and on-premise resources, IBM noted.
Attempts to protect this fragmented IT environmentoften require security teams to undertake complex integrationsand continuously switch between different screens and point products.
General Manager, IBM Security, Mary O'Brien was quoted as saying, "With Cloud Pak for Security, we're helping to lay the foundation for a more connected security ecosystem designed for the hybrid, multicloud world."

THE LEGEND OF KINTSUGI
Kintsugi is a Japanese legend that tells the story of a mighty shogun warrior who broke his favourite tea bowel and sent it away for repair. When he received it back, the bowl was held together by unsightly metal staples. Although he could still use it, he was very disappointed.
Still hoping to restore his beloved bowl to its former beauty, he asked a craftsman to find a more elegant solution.
The craftsman wanted to try a new technique, something that would add to the beauty of the bowl as well as repair it. So, he mended every crack in the bowl with a lacquer resin mixed with gold. When the tea bowl was returned to the shogun, there were streaks of gold running through it, telling its story, and – the warrior thought – adding to its value and beauty.
This method of repair became known as Kintsugi.
Kintsugi, roughly translates to "golden Joinery"
The Japanese philosophy is that the value of an object is not in its beauty, but in its imperfections, and that these imperfections are something to celebrate, not hide.
KINTSUGI AND YOU
You are probably thinking, Thats a nice story, but what does it have to do with me?
Imagine that your life is a ceramic bowl. When good things happen, it's like the bowl is being polished, and when bad things happen, it's like the bowl is being scratched.
Something like Child Sexual Abuse could create significant cracks. The result may leave you feeling that your bowl has been broken into pieces. You repaired it as best as you could, and, like the metal staples, maybe the ways you coped allowed you to be functional, but not utilizing your full potential.
With Kintsugi, every step you make towards healing is like gluing those pieces back together with gold.
You feel more whole and complete.
Although the trauma in your past cannot be changed, it can be managed in ways where it no longer dominates your life.
You may carry deep wounds that need validation and healing in order for you to move forward. With proper education tools, and support, it's not only possible but probable that you will be able to live a positive, productive, and empowered life.
As you learn about how the brain responds to trauma of your childhood, you can begin the process of putting the broken pieces back together.

Maybe during this one, Courtney and David will get back together in real life! Each of these movies does seem to mark a stage for them.
Wondering if they'll do a "direct sequel" to the original, which is all the rage in horror franchises these days, a la Halloween. Ignoring 2, 3, and 4, and doing its own new thing. Given that we'll never have another by Craven, I guess now would be the time. Though I'll always wonder about the rumored 5 and 6 originally planned.
But just imagine a direct sequel. Maybe Sidney's completely crippled emotionally and never left Woodsboro. Her dad and Randy are still alive, there and doing their thing. Instead of the older brother guardian type, Dewey hates Sidney, resenting her and blaming her for Tatum's death. Gale is still a trashy hateful tabloid type. The killer turns out to be Billy's mother once again, but this time played by Laurie Metcalf's daughter, just like in Young Sheldon.
A problem is that this just ushers in the idea of constantly going in different directions, and eventually there are ten timelines all bursting from the original. And that they're constantly being done by people who said they were fans of the original growing up almost makes it feel like we're giving way to legitimizing fan-fiction.
[–] LockardTheGOAT (234) 8 months ago
I made a thread about four topics down speculating about a direct sequel to the original. The idea has its perks (like there finally being a plausible way to bring Randy back), but overall I think fans would hate it. It destroys the mythology of the series
Another idea is to rip off New Nightmare (which would be fine, since it was a Wes Craven film) and have a story where the four Screams movies were just movies, but somebody in the real world dons the Ghostface costume and starts targeting the real life actors behind the movies (Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette, all playing fictionalized versions of themselves), and creating their own real life Scream film. It's sort of multi-dimensional and you could incluce cameos from other actors in the series, including one or both of the original killers (Skeet Ulrich and Matthew Lillard.)

My hopes:
- One of the killers is from Scream 3. Bear with me: every other movie had 2 killers. Roman (I think it was Roman) worked alone, yet gets as beat up as the others without showing a mark. It doesn't make much senses. So add that Roman didn't actually work alone and tie this movie to the rest in that way. Roman can still be the director and all, new killer was the lackey to Roman, but now is in charge with his own lackey.
- 3 killers at least. Surprise the audience by revealing the two, then third comes out of nowhere! Remember that sequels have to be bigger and badder!
- Sidney, if not Gale and Dewey as well, have CCL and are really hard to kill. Killer has to work around them. Make Sid just go after the killer on occasion and the killer actually has to run off (anyone who doesn't carry a weapon at all times after being attacked by serial killers 4 different times is an idiot!).
- Bring back the song Red Right Hand from the first 3 movies!
- Finally, killer doesn't need to be identical to the others. Different weapons can now be used, outfit can change a bit (same mask, different costume). Killer actually learned from the others and is a tough bastard.
I'm sure I'll feel dumb/old for not knowing this, and the Google couldn't help me, but what is CCL?
Concealed Carry License. It may not be a typical abbreviation.
[–] Washingtonnative (2613) 7 months ago
I hope this installment will be a lot better than the 4th!
Agreed, though I liked the 4th. Also, if this one parodies remakes or reboots somehow, you could then add some of the elements I mentioned, such as changing things up. That would be the movie tie-in angle (ie: horror movies, sequels, trilogies, remakes, and now reboots). Also, for gosh sake, make Dewey do something smart and competent for a damn change!
- maybe they find some old tape recordings by Randy from the 1990s describing what he predicts horror movies will be like in 25 years to help guide Sidney and the others.
- probably add a supernatural element since most horror films do these days in order to better satirize the current state of horror films (perhaps the ghosts of past Ghostfaces)
- maybe have the characters realize they are in a reboot of an old franchise and play on the tropes that go along with modern reboots (ie new girl who thinks she is important, old character who is now a badass older person, new villain who is somehow related to the original lead)
[–] Moonglum9 (7190) 6 months ago
They can make it that there was a third killer in the original Scream all along but they didn't get caught in the end and has hidden out biding their time.
Yeah they kind of did that already in Scream 3
I meant that there was a third person who actively took part in the killings with Stu and Billy, but during the finale scenes he was elsewhere when B and S did the reveal and was able to get away and wasn't sold out by them before they died. It doesn't really matter, they should have stopped after part 2 anyways.
Oh I see what you mean. That would make for a cool reveal. But then they'd have to explain why they waited this long, through so many other copycats, and it would feel off that he'd go unmentioned by Billy and Stu during their final tirade. It could be done but would have to be more careful than they'd probably want to be.
[–] rateater (3503) 6 months ago
it would be interesting if ontop of nev, courtney and david returning and about 6 new teen stars, they filled in the rest of the cast with sean and marlon wayans, anna faris and regina hall all playing serious characters involved in the story.

Just hoping for the quality of 1/2. 3 and especially 4 were so missable.

NSF grant establishes new electric transportation center at USU | Education
berry sinaga August 8, 2020 5 min read
Utah State University was granted $26 million from the National Science Foundation for an international...
Utah State University was granted $26 million from the National Science Foundation for an international engineering research center — the first in Utah in more than 30 years and the only one of its kind dedicated to advancing electric transportation.
The five-year funding agreement, which can be renewed up to 10 years and $50.6 million, goes into effect on Sept. 1.
The NSF funding has created the Advancing Sustainability through Powered Infrastructure for Roadway Electrification center to transform transportation and electric utilities: "the two largest industries in our nation, trillion-dollar industries," said ASPIRE's Director Regan Zane.
"Ultimately, our goal over the 10 years of the NSF grant is to bring society to that tipping point where the path is charted, and it's clear how electrification should roll out in our nation," he said.
While based at USU, ASPIRE is a partnership with multiple universities, such as Purdue University, University of Colorado Boulder, University of Texas at El Paso and the University of Auckland New Zealand, along with more than 45 private companies and institutions throughout the world, to work on widespread adoption of sustainable transportation and lowering electric utility costs in the process.
"To accomplish this, we have got to look at opportunities that mean we will charge our vehicles at lower charging rates," he said. "We've got to charge our vehicles more frequently, and we've got to decrease the size of the battery packs required on those vehicles … what we will be doing is bringing the charge to the vehicle."
The best way to do this? USU believes the key lies in its research on putting wireless charging technology into roads so vehicles can charge simply by driving certain routes.
Solar panels supply power that allows a vehicle to be wirelessly charged while driving Thursday at the Innovation Campus in North Logan. The National Science Foundation has awarded USU a five-year, $26 million grant to develop an international research center for electric transportation.

Leading the way in the sustainability and electric transportation fields is not new to USU.
In 2015, Zane's Sustainable Electrified Transportation center built the world's first electric test track on the university's Innovation Campus, as well as housing USU's largest array of solar panels.
To make the technology more accessible, "we need flexibility: flexibility in how, when and where we charge our vehicles," Zane said.
So USU researchers started developing dynamic charging where power transfer coils are embedded in roadways so vehicles — with a corresponding coil on the undercarriage — can charge while in motion rather than plugging in.
ASPIRE is the new iteration of SELECT, though when dealing with widespread adoption, even more testing is needed to determine the logistics of how this might look from multiple disciplines, such as civil and mechanical engineering, as well as environmental studies.
"The challenges are to make the pavement durable, because you know, you can embed stuff in concrete, but if it only lasts one season, that's not going to be very good," said USU Professor Marv Halling. "Especially here in Utah. We have freeze-thaw cycles, and we salt our roads pretty substantially. So salt and water and freeze-cycles are all difficult challenges."
Production of batteries for electric vehicles is also a concern, since the majority are lithium-based. While they play a crucial role in decarbonizing energy, the extraction of the element has significant environmental impacts of its own, such as water use and pollution.
And the size of batteries needed to power large-scale transportation, like semis, would be "simply too expensive and too heavy to let sit," Zane said.
Solutions include decreasing the size of batteries needed, especially as roadway charging eliminates much of the needed battery capacity.
"We're not just looking at reducing the direct cost on the surface," said Hongjie Wang, an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at USU, "but we look at the cost from the kind of lifecycle of the vehicle, from the battery to the vehicle and then, with the old batteries, how to recycle or leverage it into a second-life battery to further reduce costs."
Not only would a smaller battery mean a cost reduction, but lower environmental impact as Wang said the demand for batteries is not going away.
Utah State University President Noelle Cockett speaks at a press conference on Thursday at the Innovation Campus in North Logan. The National Science Foundation has awarded USU a five-year, $26 million grant to develop an international research center for electric transportation.
"Our need to move people and goods has not decreased; it is only increasing," Zane said. "This is particularly true for our freight. As we look at moving our freight around the country, it is expected that it will be increased by 50% over the next 20 years."
The transition to more sustainable fuel options is particularly important for Utah, according to State Senate President Stuart Adams, as it would combat the state's air quality issues — which will only worsen if the state continues to grow at the current rate.
"The solution is, very simply, we see that 50% of the air pollution comes from our tailpipes," Adams said. "This is where the rubber meets the road. If we're able to charge vehicles, perhaps as they drive down the road, not only will we compete with gas-powered vehicles, we'll be able to do better because we can pass up the gas stations and continue on."
Zane said as investment in infrastructure is directly tied to economic growth and opportunities, the program will be implemented to align with plans for rebuilding electrical grids and roadwork in coming years.
"I think this center has a duty to do the research and provide inputs so that as the government and as our country does that rebuild, we rebuild it for the future, not for the past," said Jake Gunther, the department head of electrical and computer engineering at USU. "We don't build it for a year, or a hydrocarbon, gasoline-powered transportation system. We build it for the electric future."
A future, based on ASPIRE team projections, that could raise more than $200 million in revenue over the next decade, especially as more businesses get involved — which according to Antje Graul, an assistant professor in the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business, will be crucial for decarbonizing energy and making it equitable for everyone.
"Especially if we think about urbanization, and people living in big cities," she said. "They do not have the opportunity to install their private chargers in their homes, and they might have to rely on public transportation. And for shared transportation to be electric transportation, they need an infrastructure that's going to be in place to help them achieve that goal."
USU has also set the goal to become carbon-neutral by 2050, and President Noelle Cockett said she hopes this center will help facilitate the process, such as all campus busing systems utilizing wireless charging on the university's roads.
"I would love to have some of the first demonstration sites for this technology," she said. "I can't think of anything better than to make our campuses, all across the state, this wireless technology."

Gerhard Sundborn: Fighting Sugar in Soft Drinks
If you look at recent news on sugary drinks and obesity in New Zealand, chances are you will come across the name Dr Gerhard Sundborn, or the advocacy Dr Sundborn undertakes at FIZZ (Fighting Sugar In Soft Drinks). Health Promotion Forum caught up with Dr Sundborn to find out more about his role and recent work.
Gerhard, thank you for your time. Could you tell our readers a little about your role and background please?
I have a few varied roles. I am a public health researcher/epidemiologist based at the University of Auckland. In 2013, I with a number of colleagues established FIZZ (which stands for Fighting Sugar in Soft-drinks) a Public Health Advocacy Group to address sugary drink consumption. More recently (since February) I have also started a part-time role for ARPHS as a Project and Public Health Analyst.
I have spent most of my time in Auckland and as a child and teenager lived in Wellington for 2 years and Rotorua for 3 years. My father is originally from Huntly and my Mother is from Vava'u, Tonga. Together with my wife Meliame we have three young children Sola 8y, Wayne 6y and Chloe 5y.
We are aware that you have a symposium coming up. What is it about and why is it important?
The symposium 'Taxing Sugary Drinks' on the 26th June in Auckland is the fourth that FIZZ has run. It will provide information and explain the science as to why sugar and sugary drinks are harmful, profile a large number of initiatives that have been created to address this issue both here in NZ and the USA, and finally we will also focus on the issue of taxing sugary drinks- looking at the most recent examples in Berkley (USA) and determine whether this is or should be an election issue leading up to our vote on 23rd September. To conclude the symposium we will have a political panel debate with representatives from all the major political parties with the only exception being National (Greens, Labour, The Māori Party, NZ First and The Opportunities Party will all be represented).
What are you hoping to achieve from the symposium?
We hope that the symposium will further raise awareness about the need to look seriously at reducing sugar and sugary drink intake to improve health.
We also hope that by providing a forum to profile the great work that many people and organisations are already doing in this area, it will encourage others to do the same and/or similar things.
We hope that this symposium will also promote wider public debate on a sugary drink tax being a key election issue.
How has society/ NZ/ communities responded to this issue and how has this changed over the years?
Since we started (back in 2013) the issue of sugar and sugary drinks is now becoming part of normal commentary when we think of the health debate. Our health sector and researchers in academic organisations I think have embraced this issue and driven a lot of great work. The general public too I think now see the need to address sugar and sugary drinks as a high priority. This increase in public awareness/support can be seen in the huge increase in support of a sugary drink tax that went from 44% in early 2014 to 86% in late 2016.
How does health promotion work alongside other approaches to improve wellbeing in this area?
Health promotion is an essential part of the work needed to address the problem of high sugar intake in NZ. It is important to work with schools, churches, sports clubs and all parts of our community to provide them with accurate and easily understood information about sugar in our diets and the massive amount of sugar in many drinks, the harm it causes but most importantly – possible solutions. There is some amazing health promotion work that is going on in this area where many large Māori and Pasifika festivals have gone sugary-drink free or water only such as Creekfest in Cannons Creek Porirua, Te Wānanga o Raukawa Events in Ōtaki and the Matatini event that was held in Hawkes Bay this year.
What are some of the challenges and opportunities to achieving your goals on this issue?
Industry present challenges to this work for obvious reasons in that they make money from the sale of sugar, however, we hope that industry will move to creating more low/no sugar products, and there are examples of this happening already.
Other challenges come from an argument that we shouldn't limit people's choice! However, we don't want to limit choice but move the landscape so that healthier choices in the form of very low and no sugar products are the easier choice to make.

If anyone is looking for a Christmas gift to satisfy a hard to please football supporter, look no further than this book that combines outstanding design with an authoritative narrative. Never before has there been a book to explain the origins of British football club badges.
As a child I had the 1971/72 Batholomews Football map of Great Britain on my bedroom wall that was illustrated with club crests as well as team strips – badges of Bradford City and Bradford Park Avenue as shown below. Nothing better gave me a basic knowledge of British geography and civic crests. Nowadays club crests are visible on an almost daily basis, thanks to a large degree to digital design and the internet but they were not always so commonplace. In the main they tended to be confined to boys' comics and it was otherwise rare to see a compilation of crests.
The Beautiful Badge is a true indulgence that allows comparison of badges not only from different clubs but from different eras. What is so enjoyable about the book is that it has extensive coverage of early club badges dating back to the pre-World War One era and there is a treasure trove of artefacts and illustrations. Bradford City supporters will be satisfied that the club is well-represented and indeed there is a good share of graphics relating to the Bantams / Paraders.
The book is based on the research undertaken by Routledge for an undergraduate dissertation and around twenty years ago I provided him with some background about the various crests that have been adopted by Bradford City AFC. I have also assisted him with the production of this book, providing detail about Bradford City as well as my involvement with the rebadging of Scunthorpe United in 1981. Indeed I was the man responsible for the design of that club's 'Unity fist' badge having entered a competition advertised in the Scunthorpe v City programme in October that year.
If I had to recommend a football book as a special Christmas gift, this would be it. Readers have a unique chance to win a copy of The Beautiful Badge by answering the following question: In which year was the current Bradford City crest introduced?
The winning entry will be selected at random on 30th November and the winner contacted.
John has written widely about the history of sport in Bradford: Links to his features on the history of Bradford sport where you will find features about the history of BCAFC badges.


Long time lurker. Background information, currently completing my PPL with the intention of going on to my CPL. I am not looking for a full time position flying, only flying for enjoyment.
1) Will anyone allow allow me to hire their aircraft with such minimal experience (be it a school or private ownership). I am more than happy to go through a check flight. I will respect the owner's aircraft and have no intention of flying in a manner that is detrimental to the pilot's of Australia reputation.
2) In terms of aircraft availability, will I struggle to find an owner that has an aircraft that is free for for a full weekend?
These two questions relate to finding owners around this island located far from where I live. Hope this make sense....Dream big, but need to plan to make it happen.

Query: NC_011184:325797 Vibrio fischeri MJ11 chromosome I, complete sequence
Lineage: Aliivibrio fischeri; Aliivibrio; Vibrionaceae; Vibrionales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from a pinecone fish, Monocentris japonica, light-emitting organs in Japan. This genus is abundant in marine or freshwater environments such as estuaries, brackish ponds, or coastal areas; regions that provide an important reservoir for the organism in between outbreaks of the disease. Vibrio can affect shellfish, finfish, and other marine animals and a number of species are pathogenic for humans. This organism is found in marine environments and was originally named by Bernard Fischer during a sea voyage in the 1800s. It is a symbiont in fish and squids and is responsible for light generation in those organisms, which use it as a defense mechanism to avoid predators.

Lineage: Mycoplasma gallisepticum; Mycoplasma; Mycoplasmataceae; Mycoplasmatales; Tenericutes; Bacteria
General Information: Causes respiratory disease in birds. This genus currently comprises more than 120 obligate parasitic species found in a wide spectrum of hosts, including humans, animals, insects and plants. The primary habitats of human and animal mycoplasmas are mucous membranes of the respiratory and urogenital tracts, eyes, mammary glands and the joints. Infection that proceeds through attachment of the bacteria to the host cell via specialized surface proteins, adhesins, and subsequent invasion, results in prolonged intracellular persistence that may cause lethality. Once detected in association with their eukaryotic host tissue, most mycoplasmas can be cultivated in the absence of a host if their extremely fastidious growth requirements are met.

CKEditor Spoiler Plugin
=======================

This plugin let's you create a spoiler box that can be toggled to show it's contents. It is based on the CKEditor widget system.

![Screenshot](https://s3.amazonaws.com/f.cl.ly/items/1S2T133R1b470c1v261o/Image%202015-02-27%20at%202.52.13%20nachm..png)

The plugin will create the following structure which can be styled to fit your needs.

```html
<div class="spoiler">
    <h6 class="spoiler-title">Title</h6>
    <div class="spoiler-content"><p>Hidden content</p></div>
</div>
```

To open the spoiler box it should receive the `spoiler-open` class on the outer div.

There is an example with some default style and some js to make the toggling work.

## Installation

Install with Bower using `bower install ckeditor-plugin-spoiler`

or

1. Copy the spoiler directory into the "plugins" folder of CKEditor.
2. Add the following to the CKEditor config.js file:
   `config.extraPlugins = 'spoiler';`
3. Add the `spoiler/css/spoiler.css` stylesheet to your document or create your own style.

## Options

`config.spoiler_template` - Specify to override the default template seen above. Placeholders in curly braces will be replaced with language vars. E.g. `{defaultTitle}` will become `Title`.

Bakersfield College drum corps heading to international championship
by: Tabatha Mills
They're marching to a new tune.
The Golden Empire Drum and Bugle corps at Bakersfield College is headed to a very prestigious stage.
For the first time ever, the corps is headed to the Drum corps International World Championships in Indianapolis – Marching Music's Major League.
"We're very very excited about being able to go to championships this year. Going to finals was our five year plans and so this is our fifth year in existence so to be at that moment where we're doing final preparations and actually getting ready to travel out and compete is totally exciting," said Tim Heasley, Director of Marching Arts at Bakersfield College.
For Aaron Aragon, the Head Drum Major and Conductor of the Field, it's five years of hard work that is now paying off.
"It's been such a long journey to get to where we are today. I'm so excited to become one of the first people of Golden Empire, one of the first people of the BC Marching Arts program to go to World Championships," said Aaron Aragon.
DCI World Championships will be held at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis on Aug. 11, 2018.

O you who Believe! I am Allah, your Lord, Gracious and Merciful, and I do not destroy that which has been spoken, concerning things which are to come! These are the words of a Clear Book, that has come forth from My Sacred Treasury. All My Prophets prophesied of the Christ and this is he of whom it was written — John! He has ears that hear, and an eye that sees. Let him announce what he sees! He shall open the Book and none shall shut it. I, the Lord am its Keeper, and I guard it night and day — that the Righteous Nation which keeps faith may receive Me!
I, Allah am the All-Knowing and Best of Planners! He is the Tree of Life, and this is the Field of Righteousness! I planned from days of old what I now bring to pass. Incline your ear and hear, open your eyes and see — for he who endures to the end, will I give Eternal Life. Many Righteous men longed to hear what you have heard, but could not hear it, and to see what you have seen and could not find it!
If these Mighty Works had been seen — they would have repented! Satan and his evil ones came and snatched away what was sown while these men were sleeping. His evil scribes sowed weeds among the wheat! Their hearts are far from Me, and what came out of their mouths, came from their heart — evil thoughts, false witness, and slander. So now in vain many think they are worshiping Me and teach as doctrines the precepts of these men!
I knew it before they did it! That is why I spoke in Parables — because seeing they would not see, and hearing they would not hear and understand! Behold My Servant whom I have chosen, the true Scribe of Righteousness; now everything hidden shall be revealed! Everything that is in this world, whether it be ordained of men, by thrones, or principalities or powers, that are not by Me or by My Word — shall not stand!
John is as a grain of mustard seed which has grown and become a Tree! Unless you turn and become as little children, you will in nowise inherit the Kingdom. As for the Righteous men long ago — it shall be more tolerable on the Day of Judgment for them, than for you. Are not men more valuable than sheep? I desire Mercy and will not sacrifice the guiltless!
I had hidden these things from the Wise and Understanding, and have now revealed them to babes! For such is My Gracious Will. Come and learn from Me, and you will find Rest for your Souls! Endure to the end — until he brings Justice to Victory. You shall indeed see and hear, and understand with your hearts, if you turn to Me!

John Deere 9370R was recently delivered to Russell Jack Contracting, based in Winton. This is one of the largest tractors SFML has ordered and delivered. With 370 horsepower and efficient FT2 engine technology, these machines welcome a good challenge.
Featured above: Adam Wilson driving the 9370R with a 4 metre wide buck rake attached.
The 9370R has a capacity of pushing 60 cubic metres of silage up the stack in one push, with the push off stacker evenly distributing the silage at a uniform depth over the stack. This allows the rest of the time between truck loads to be used for rolling the silage rather than the 3-4 pushes it previously took using a conventional wheel tractor or loader. Adam said that "whilst we haven't done a lot of silage to date, the tractor is exceeding expectations and surprises us with its manoeuvrability and its ability to push huge amounts of material".

He makes lunch for little man when needed, puts together all of the supplies little man needs for the day and then wakes up our sweet boy and dresses him for the day. My husband makes sure there is nothing that I need to start my day and then heads off to drive little man out to daycare before beginning his work day. He keeps our family going and works so hard to provide normalcy to us.
This morning, our sweet boy woke up hungry at 545am – much earlier than the 7am wakeup he typically has. My husband brought him some milk and I snuggled him in bed for a bit while my husband dressed for work. When Jacob was all done snuggling and ready to play, I got up with him. We tottered off to his room where he helped me pick out his clothes for the day and took a break from getting dressed to play with a few stuffed animals. My husband joined us and made elephant noises while holding a stuffed elephant. Little man tried to copy him and we all giggled at the silly noises and my inability to even remotely sound like an elephant.
This may not sound like a lot but it was an incredible morning. While I am not entirely myself yet, I feel so much better than I have in over a week. I was able to get up with our family and help them prepare for the day – and even had a few minutes to play in between. I am so grateful for a new day, for feeling better and for my incredible husband and son, who make the days brighter. Happy Friday everyone!

As you may know, Microsoft's Windows 8 features a new User Interface. What you see after you sign in is a matrix of tiles, many displaying information which updates as you scan the display.
The purpose of this page is to show you how to create a new tile for your Windows 8 Metro-style UI.
Regard this exercise as preparaton for the main event of creating a new tile in the Windows 8 Metro UI. The easiest way to display a program's tile is to right-click an app, then select 'Pin to Start' from the bottom right of the screen.
From the new UI, press WinKey +q.
Type the first few letters of the App that you want to create a tile, for example, I typed 'sn' for Snipping Tool.
When your app appears in the results, right-click; this should induce a white tick.
Now you should be able to see the 'Pin to Start' icon at the very bottom right of the screen.
Press WinKey, and return to the Metro UI; you should see a new tile at the very right of the Metro UI, I needed to scroll right in order to see my 'Snipping Tool'.
If I say to you: 'this is not a easy task', then it may explain why I divided the task into three stages. Furthermore, if you cannot make a Windows 8 tile from this outline, then you have my detailed notes below.
The desktop is a good place to start, e.g SnippingTool.
Right-click your shortcut – Pin to start.
Plan B: [optional] Copy your shortcut to this specific folder.
Plan B: Use the Metro Search to find your shortcut [Key point].
'Pin to Start', just as you would an App.
The desktop is a good place to create your shortcut. This won't work at the Metro UI.
Right-click, select New –> Shortcut, type SnippingTool (all one word) in the dialog box.
I named my shortcut 'GuySnip'. My reasoning was so that I could find it more easily later.
To give this exercise extra purpose, you could right-click the shortcut to SnippingGuy, select Properties, Advanced and tick 'Run as administrator'.
Return to the Metro UI and your new tile should be visible at the right of the screen.
P.S. You can create shortcuts and then tiles for other Windows 8 programs, I just created one for gpedit.msc.
Right-click and paste into the folder, see screenshot below.
Note 1: This folder is ProgramData not Program Files.
Note 2: It's not possible to create shortcuts here.
Naturally, you need to change 'Administrator' to the name of your user.
Proceed as though your shortcut is an App that you want to Pin to the UI. Therefore, from the Metro interface type:- 'Snip'. Search Apps should appear and display your shortcut.
To return to the Metro UI press the WinKey, your new tile will be at the extreme right, so scroll until you see your usual logon icon at the top. Underneath should be the new Windows 8 Tile that you just created.
The performance monitor also contains the resorce monitor. Here is a quick way of creating a tile for this utility.
Step 2: Pin to Start. Just right-click the shortcut; select 'Pin to Start'.
I did NOT need to Sign out / Sign in before my tile arrived.
Sorry to harp on, but you did paste the shortcut to the correct folder?
Note: ProgramData is a hidden folder. So in Windows Explorer click on 'View' and tick 'Hidden Items'.
Actually, you can copy the shortcut to the Windows Accessories sub-folder.
Sometimes I get stuck because the 'Destination Folder' dialog box in the screenshot right is hidden behind other Windows. Find it and click, 'Continue'.
If you already have a tile / executable with same name, I found that you could not create the second tile. For example if you have a short cut called 'Guy Cmd', then you cannot make another one called 'Jo Cmd'.
See how to create a Windows 8 Shutdown tile.
Windows 8 IE 10 has two versions. When you click on the IE tile on the start screen you get the Metro Version. See how to configure the traditional version of Internet Explorer v 10.
If you right-click an App you can 'Pin', or 'Unpin' it to the Metro UI. It's not long before you start dragging the Tiles around, grouping them and moving the most important to the left.
Break-down the task into stages. Create a shortcut corresponding to your tile. Right-click the shortcut and 'Pin to Start'.
Alternatively, copy the shortcut to the specific folder: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs. The final stage of this technique is to search for the Apps and then Pin its tile to the Metro UI start menu.

Suspects in the break-in of the Israeli embassy last week said they were paid by a millionaire, an Egyptian newspaper reports.
Suspects in the break-in of the Israeli embassy last week said they were paid by a millionaire, the Egyptian newspaper Al Ahram reported Sunday.
It said the unnamed millionaire paid youth up to $2,000 each to break into the embassy nine days ago and try to attack six guards in a fortified room. The guards were rescued at the last minute by Egyptian commandos, who dressed them up in Arab garb to make a safe getaway.
Judicial sources told the newspaper that the "benefactor" picked the attackers up from three different areas in Egypt the night before the attack.
Three luxury buses, each one carrying approximately 50 people, drove them for about half an hour to a private farm, where they were told to take revenge on behalf of Egyptians killed during the multi-prong terrorist attack north of Eilat last month.
The paid-to-riot crowd enjoyed a lavish dinner and then received envelopes containing cash.
Egypt has blamed the riot on outside agitators.


Whoever came up with this is both clever and twisted as hell.
Imagine yourself enjoying a beautiful day at the lake, when you decide to take a dip. Normally the only thing you'd have to worry about grabbing your legs from under the water is some seaweed, only at this particular Minnesota lake, you've got something much, much more sinister waiting for you towards the bottom.
According to DreadCentral.com, someone planted a Jason Voorhees statue, complete with mask and machete, 120 feet deep that has been freaking out divers since 2013!
As you can imagine, after five years of being buried at the bottom of the lake, he's looking a little "tough"
While you movie buffs will remember Jason "died" in Crystal Lake in the movies, there's a real Crystal Lake in Burnsville, MN, but you'll actually find this menacing character at a popular diving spot in Crosby, MN. Look, I'm just going to do the smart thing and stay the hell out of the water entirely.


Updating my iPhone 4 to iOS7 was pretty much a fiasco.
Not only did the process halt about 3/4 of the way through, but I was then forced to wipe my phone, start clean and reload my latest backup. All told, this gobbled over an hour of my day, leaving me with a sour stomach, elevated blood pressure, and an aura of co-mingled sweat and fear. My reward for relying so much on technology. Thanks, Apple. I can't wait to update the iPad.
The real surprise came when my iPhone returned to life. I mentally kick boxed myself for having reflexively clicked "yes" on the update request before first reading up on what to expect. As you probably know by now, while the past few "minor" iOS updates had essentially left the interface intact, this new operating system was…different. Brighter colors, less texture and shading, new icons, and new security. Like an alternate sci-fi universe that's close but not quite like our own, simultaneously jarring and comforting.
I was forced to halt to my day a second time to pay serious attention to this unexpected challenge. A flood of questions: What was new? What was removed? What features switched places? Would I like this new interface over time? Was it better than the old iOS?
Faced with the redesign, I immediately thought of what marketers know as the Primacy Effect. No, it's not a hotly anticipated Tom Cruise movie. It's the psychological tendency to remember and favor what we know over what comes later. The primacy effect is our bias towards the familiar. It dramatically impacts our initial experience with any new redesign, whether it's a Web site, a car interior or a mobile phone, and it often reveals itself as an initial lag in adoption or acceptance. Smart companies and marketers recognize this phenomenon.
Which Test Won recently presented an excellent example of this effect (now in their archives). In an A/B test, marketers compared click thrus on two newsletter formats: the original text-only version (the control) and a new, slicker HTML version (the redesign). They segmented the audience by subscription date (newer vs. older subscribers) and ran an email test to see whether the new format increased the number of clicks on linked offers in the email.
The test data showed that newer subscribers significantly and more frequently clicked on links in the new HTML format. Success! However…long-time or repeat list members clicked less frequently on the HTML version and at about the same rate as they'd previously done on the text-only version. Follow-up testing suggested that this was merely the primacy effect in action, not a dislike of the new format. The HTML version became the standard, and long-time members eventually adjusted.
First, understand your audience. The segmentation of repeat vs. new subscribers was a savvy approach to analyzing the short- and long-term effects a redesign. There's no other way do detect the primacy effect.
Second, test over a longer period of time. The Which Test Won case study shows how the primacy effect can give the control version a short-term advantage over the new variant. Don't be in such a hurry to conclude your testing.
And third, consider incremental change over radical redesign. If the lion's share of your business depends on repeat customers, ease them into change through communication and experimentation.
After learning enough of iOS7 to regain control of my phone, I launched an informal survey of my iPhone-loving acquaintances. It revealed that while few of us love the new iOS7, we're all resigned to accepting it. Apple's most certainly got a handle on this, having tested and retested the interface, curried the favor of influential analysts and reviewers, and adjusted iOS7 enough to limit any customer backlash. They know that the abundance of cool, Android-like features will be a hit with new customers and that the majority of us existing customers will fall in line, as we always do.
If you feel that learning this new iOS is a waste of your time, go ahead and blame Apple. But in the end, as we grit our teeth and rewire our existing phone habits, recognize that we have the primacy effect to thank as well.


The contract between Frank and Shipfit Ltd requires that Frank's boat is serviced together with the supply and fitment of particular new parts to the boat. With a contract of this type certain measures are implied into the contract by the Supply of Goods & Services Act 1982. Where goods are supplied, a condition is implied that these goods be reasonably fit for purpose, s.4(5). And where work is carried out in conjunction with the supply of goods, a condition is implied that this work be carried out with reasonable care and skill, s.13. The level of care and skill required to be reasonable will be judged against the care and skill a reasonable person might be expected to take in carrying out the same job, Blyth v Birmingham Waterworks (1856) 11 Exch 781.
Clearly the work undertaken by Shipfit Ltd was substandard. Whilst the fitting of the regulator may have been carried out correctly, reasonable care and skill had not been taken in ensuring it was properly tested. Frank therefore has the possibility of basing his action on negligent performance and strict liability. Shipfit Ltd will only be able to avoid liability if the exemption clauses within the contract are found to be valid.
Two areas must be considered in relation to whether an exemption clause is valid. The first is whether the exemption clause will be valid under common law. Under common law if a party wishes to rely upon an exclusion clause it must be incorporated and it must also be construed to cover the breach and resulting loss. If both requirements are met it will be necessary to consider whether it is affected by the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 (UCTA) or the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 (UTCCR).
A clause can become incorporated in three ways. It could be contained within a document signed by the contracting parties, L'Estrange v Graucob Ltd  2 KB 394. Once a contractual document has been signed it is usually held that the exemption clause will be incorporated into the contract, except in cases of misrepresentation Curtis v Chemical Cleaning & Dyeing Co  1 KB 805. There is no evidence here that Frank signed the receipt when he took his boat for service so we must therefore consider the second way in which a clause may be incorporated into a contract, notice. It is the responsibility of the party attempting to rely on the clause to take reasonable steps to bring it to the attention of the other party, Parker v South East Railway Co (1877) 2 CPD 416. The reasonable steps taken to provide notice must occur before the contract is made, Olley v Marlborough Court  1 KB 532 and Thornton v Shoe Lane Parking Ltd  2 QB 163. The final requirement with regard to notice is that the notice be contained within a contractual document, Chappleton v Barry Urban DC  1 KB 532. It does appear that steps had been taken to inform Frank of the existence of the clauses prior to his entering into the contract. The copies on the receipt and invoice will not be considered notice, Chappleton v Barry Urban DC and Olley v Marlborough Court but the board by the entrance to the boat yard may be. We must consider how small and faded the board might be and therefore whether the notice provided by Shipfit Ltd could be considered reasonable and sufficient. The nature of the clause itself may also be an issue. If this clause is found to be particularly onerous, greater steps need to have been taken to highlight the clauses to Frank. This is referred to as the "red hand rule" and is based on the findings in J Spurling Ltd v Bradshaw  1 WLR 461of Denning L.J. The final method by which a clause can be incorporated is through previous dealings. Two requirements must be met in order for a court to infer a clause based on previous dealings: there must be sufficient notice of the clause, J Spurling Ltd v Bradshaw and there must be consistency in the previous dealings, McCutcheon v David MacBrayne Ltd  1 WLR 125. The invoice presented to Frank at the time of the service and each time his boat had been serviced previously contained these clauses. Consequently, the frequency and consistency of these previous dealings could be said to be sufficient notice.
The next issue to consider is whether the clauses cover the breach that occurred. The basic approach to construction is the contra proferentum rule which ensures that any doubt or ambiguity will be interpreted against the person wanting to rely on the clause. In dealing with limitation clauses we must also consider that the rules of construction should not be applied as rigidly as with exclusion clauses, Alisa Craig Fishing Co Ltd v Malvern Fishing Co Ltd  WLR 964. Further to the decision in Canada Steamship Lines Ltd v The King  AC 192, the courts have adopted a three stage test to the construction of exclusion clauses seeking to excluded negligence: 'if there is an express reference to negligence it will be effective, if no express mention are words used wide enough to cover negligence and finally if the words used are wide enough to cover negligence is there any other form of liability that the party in breach could be liable for'. In this case there is no express mention of negligence in the clauses but the use of the words "howsoever arising" are wide enough to include negligence. There is also a case of concurrent liability in this scenario as was the case in White v John Warwick  1 WLR 1285. Despite the decision in White v John Warwick a more flexible approach is adopted with regard to clauses seeking to limit liability, George Mitchell (Chesterhall) Ltd v Finney Lock Seeds Ltd  2 AC 803.
Statutory controls over exclusion clauses must now be considered. We need only consider UCTA as Frank does not contract as a consumer within the meaning of UTCCR. The section of UCTA to be applied depends on the basis of Shipfit Ltd's liability. If it is negligence in the performance of the contract then s.2 must be considered. Section 2 of UCTA is concerned with clauses attempting to exclude business liability for negligence as defined in s.1(1). This section has two subsections: s.2(1) applies where death or personal injury has been suffered and s.2(2) applies to any other "loss or damage".
Shipfit Ltd's actions amount to a breach of s.13 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982. Where a breach of this kind occurs s.2 of UCTA applies and the exemption clause will only be valid in certain circumstances. Under s.2(1), no exemption for liability will be permitted if the negligent act has caused some level of personal injury. Therefore the clauses contained in the contract will not exempt Shipfit Ltd from any claim made by Frank in respect of his injured arm. With regard to the boat, Shipfit Ltd may only rely on the clause if they can demonstrate that it is reasonable, UCTA s.2(2).
Section 11 of UCTA provides assistance in the consideration as to whether a clause is reasonable or not. In dealing with limitation clauses we must refer to s.11(4) where we are required to consider the 'resources' available to both parties and also the matter of insurance. Frank is a small business owner and contracting with Shipfit Ltd who are likely to have much greater resources available to them to meet the liability. Shipfit Ltd may also have been able to protect against such loss by taking out insurance. Legislation expressly states in relation to limitation clauses that the person relying on the clause should be able to demonstrate that not taking out insurance to cover any breaches they make must be demonstrated as being reasonable, before the clause can be held to be effective. Given the implied size of the company it seems unreasonable for them not to have provided insurance. It could also be argued that Frank should have taken out insurance, however. Schedule 2 of UCTA provides additional guidance as to the application of the reasonableness test. The courts must consider amongst other things the relative bargaining powers of the parties, whether an inducement was received by one party to accept the clauses in question, whether the customer had knowledge of the term, or whether any specially manufactured components were required for the completion of the work, George Mitchell (ChesterHall) Ltd v Finney Lock Seeds Ltd  2 AC 803. In this situation it seems likely that there will be few boat yards capable of carrying out the work required by Frank within close proximity to the River Trent. This and the implied size of the company would place Shipfit Ltd in a strong bargaining position, therefore making Frank a considerably weaker party and the exclusion clauses unreasonable and therefore void.
In order to consider strict liability we must establish whether Frank could be deemed to be "dealing as a consumer" under s.12(1). In R & B Customs Brokers Co Ltd v United Dominions Trust Ltd  1 WLR 321 it was held that in order for a party to be acting in the course of business, the transaction must be integral to the business and undertaken frequently. These services were not an integral part of Frank's business and it could be said on the basis of the decision in R & B Customs that three or four times a year is not sufficiently frequent to construe Frank as anything other than a consumer. Under s.7(2) no liability can be excluded for breach of the implied terms against a consumer, therefore once again the clauses are found to be void.
In summary it seems likely that Frank will be able to make claims against Shipfit Ltd in respect of not only his personal injuries but also the damage to his boat, on the basis that the limitation clauses contained within the contract have been found to be void.
